Did we ask your opinion, no. If you dont like the idea then bugger off and dont clutter up the thread with your drivel. Same goes for anyone else that doesnt like it.

Why cant you do online? Come along anyway and we can see what happens.

Love to PM but I don't think that I'll be around that weekend. If things change and you need a last-minute sub then I could give it a go. It's a damn fine idea and I really hope it gets off the ground. I've never actually played an online game and it would be a good experience.

I should have everything ready Sat or Sun witht he save and we can see what teams are available and hence how many people can play, although I dont think there will be anyone left out. Not sure how we'll pick teams yet, possibly on a random allotment or first come or mibbe some other way.

Ok as I thought I am now working till 7pm on Friday the 9th so I suggest we have about an hours session on the Friday from say 9pm-10pm to set up squads and stuff, then play on Saturday from 9pm and same Sunday if we need it.

Team lists to come.

Sounds good to me. How did you decide to allocate teams in the end? I don't really care as long as I don't get England icon_smile.gif

I think we should pick teams based on how many CMS awards one's won icon_wink.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well its as good a way as any!

I guess what people should do is list their top five choices now before we know the qualifiers, and then we'll use the order of awards to select.(FMS 'fame' will decide order if awards level tied) If none of your five choices qualify, are already taken you get a team at random. If you dont respond by the time I decide to allocate teams you get given one, probably a really crappy one.

You've both by my counting won one award, he won CMser of the Year, you won best noobie. You could argue the piece but best noob is something you can only win once and so just edges it in my book icon_wink.gif

Not that seedings mean anything in this game. Bolded italics teams are claimed, italics only means not manageable everyone else can still be taken.

Daz - all five of your teams failed to qualify, I'll let you pick who you want from those remaining. Same goes for anyone else now, first come first served.

I take it England didn't even qualify, as they don't appear in the seeding icon_biggrin.gificon14.gif

Would have been nice to beat them, of course, but us arrogant cheese-eating surrender monkeys will just have to find some other whipping boys...

Classic. If it isn't too much extra trouble, could you include stats (ratings, goals, etc.) with the qualifying tables.

Maybe we could have predictions on winners/best goalscorers/top rated players and the like. Just to spice things up a little.
