I get that, but I imagine it could get complicated trying to arrange your schedule with two people, while they are trying to do the same with another person.
Maybe I'm just overthinking it, though.

Theoretically it should be easier, though I take your point. This is the way we've done it before and it's been pretty good save for people who are just total flakes who wouldn't get things done under any system. Only downside to it is that it makes things slightly out of sync in that you can be two games ahead of others but that's a pretty negligible downside.

If that's what was done in the past, I don't have a problem with it. I saw you mention the deadline thing a few times, so I figured that's what was used in the past.
I am super pumped for this league.

yeah should make it easier to schedule.

Like Astro mentioned, yeah it would be week 1, 2 games, deadline by so and so date instead of trying to keep a deadline for every single game which would get complex.

If possible, I'd like to get as many games in as possible during the week starting on the 17th. I have the week off, and I might be able to negotiate my schedule with the wife to allow for some more gaming.

Just played around with my new team, Trabzonspor, and I am pumped I picked them. They have a nice striker, and a very solid left winger. I've been playing manual settings on semi-pro so I don't know for sure how their defense is, but this is going to be a blast.

Availability: Weekdays after 8:00 EST, probably same for weekends but sometimes I actually go out so I'd prefer to get games played during the week

Also M/Tu/Th from about 4-6, and W/F from 5 - 6 if it needs to be done earlier in the day

Is cool to post available times in the thread, but the best way is to just make sure you pm /xbox live message each opponent every week and try to come to a good time for both players.

Smokingbarrel,

Looks like you and I play first. When do you want to play?

I sent you a message through Xbox, did you get it? I have a high level of availability because I'm a student, so if you let me know your timetable, I can pick a time.

before playing everyone should go to squads --> download updates. then we'll stick with these squads the rest of the way (provided EA lets us)

Yea, great game sneaky. :)

Was worried after that big defensive lapse allowed the header early in the 2nd half. I kept aggressive on the counter and finally got the breakaway goal. Cutting it awful close though.

Question about the resolution of tied games? Do we go for draws in regular season, saving the extra time and PKs for playoffs, or what? I just went with what you selected.

shoplifter and Andres, where you at? I'm free to play during the weekend (after 7pm GMT+3, which is noon EST, is best) or on weekday mornings, for example at 11pm EST, I don't have a problem with waking up for games (DEDICATION!).

When do you want to play?

Yea man, let's do it. I should be free after 9. The Reds play at 5:00 and I'm going to watch some of that, but I can play at watch at the same time if it is still on.

At what time will you be drunk enough to lose but yet coherent enough to set up a game?

How's midnight EST for you?
