Good game, I wish I had played better.
My defense can't get out of the slump. Ferdinand's mistakes has contributed to 5 goals in the last 4 games. Your dribbling is inspiring though, my best hope is only to tie it up, but none of my strikers can hit an open goal lately... I need to shoot more, giving up chances all over the place... good luck in the playoffs.
FMT by any chance are you using a Comcast net connection? They are truly ass when it comes to Winning Eleven. We just found out what happens when you combine two crappy connections. In a game of lag, disconnects, and poor ping for the ages it was truly a slideshow at times. We got disconnected after the first half and continued with another half again to finish. Once again I wondered if the outcome might have been different if we were playing offline. Oh well, I guess that is part of the online experience but those Comcast commercials are starting to make me angry now.
GG FMT (bad connection).

Astro/Fifty, I just got a pm from Irish and it looks like we won't be able to fit our game in today. Unfortunately he was on vacation or something, I couldnt play yesterday, and today by the time he gets home I'll have left home myself. We wish for an extension and will play asap.
Btw, guys, I have a HUGE soccer game today against the #1 ranked team (we have games in hand) that may decide promotion. Wish me luck!

Just got absolutely embarrased by Larry Bird's Inter Milan.
And even worse, got stopped with a golden opportunity to steal 3 points at the very end of the first game of our double header.
Socreges, i'll be around all night and all day tomorrow.

I think you whooped me in the tourny but the few have been good. The game last night I gave up on a play cause it was offsides...apparently I was wrong.
Today I ended up chasing snowflakes twice :lol I swear it was the ball! Thakfully it didn't result in a goal. Good game though. First time I've played in the snow - pretty fun stuff.
FINAL SCHEDULES ARE POSTED- We posted them 5 days early b/c a couple people are starting to slack and we need ALL GAMES PLAYED so this will give folks more time, the chance to play back-to-back and just a lot of games at once. Here are the deadlines:
ALL DEADLINES FINAL (if you do not play the games in time, you will never be allowed into any league fifty or I are running, including WE season 2, and you will forever be known as a worthless bastard not even capable of playing an hour of WE a week that you committed to):
Games 7-9: Wednesday March 22 @ 11PM EST
Games 10-12: Sunday, March 25 @ 11PM EST
Games 13-15: Sunday, April 2 @ 11PM EST
Also I'm through wasting time PMing people; play your fucking games you 3-4 constant slackers, as tough as your schedule may be (though apparently not tough enough to stop you from signing up in the first place), it ain't making my life any easier to co-run the league, create schedules, and constantly look up missing games and tell people to play their games.
That aside, the league has been great so far and almost everyone has done a very good job playing their games. We'll be taking sign-ups for Season 2 soon so keep your eye on this thread as we'll link to the Season 2 sign-up thread in here when it's up.

Ooh, my final three games are against Division D opponents!
Miguel, FMT, and Rorschach -- any of you around to play right now? Or Daigoro/shoplifter? Otherwise, hopefully I can arrange games for thursday with some of you. I'll be available between 4:30-7:30pm PST and then 10-12 PST.

considering i'm at work, chances are slim. thursday will work fine for me, hopefully between 730-10est.
\/\/ perfect, i'll outlook appt it to myself now.
IrishIcon's connection cut out during our game and we replayed the remaining twenty minutes afterwards to a draw. I don't like it (especially since the 2nd half before had periods where the game would pause and then the ball would appear downfield 10 secs later, same with the extra 20), but I unfortunately didnt have time for a rematch today. Also, we dont know what the stats are. What happens?

i want to apologize to osorio. me tying that game was possibly the biggest bullshit ive ever witnessed in a sports game :lol
again, i apologize, i had no business being anywhere near tying that game. gg anyhow

Nah you got those goals for a reason. The first one was pretty weird, congrats on getting a strike that far. The second one was totally my fault. I let your wingers get open space all game, and I didn't think much of it until you shot it nicely and hit the post with a guy on your team getting the rebound. GG either way.FrenchMovieTheme said:

Fitty, jumpin on right now trying to catch ya.
Dammit! Sometimes I really, really hate random conditions. When Ronaldo's grey I pretty much have no chance of winning as my offense revolves around him and there's no Cassano on this roster. (raul can't create chances and robinho can't finish) Oh well....Good job Irish, you probably should have won even with Ronaldo there since you hit two posts. You can now steal the first round bye from me I'm so bitter, so very bitter

Hey Fifty, great game all around....Just intense stuff. Hopefully we'll see eachother in the knockout stage. I've been killed by the random conditions as well, seeing as how Juninho's status pretty much dictates how I can play every aspect of the game.
When he's hurting my midfield is a mess, as was the case when Garrick (Villareal) just dominated me for a half and I couldn't even get the ball.

GGs tonight guys. Guess that about wraps up the season for me. This is probably the most fun Ive had with an online sports game. Just want to say thanks to AL, Fifty and sef for putting it together and keeping things running smooth. Cheers.
Yeah we had a good bunch of games today (Conference 1 did at least! The golden conference) Good progress and the playoff races are very tight. I'm done so I'll just sit back and watch people usurp me.. This game is so astoundingly addictive online. Every game is so different, and that's what makes it better than everything else out there.
Garrickk, can you play our game tonight (Wed.)?
Also here's the current Conference I Playoff Picture (no accuracy guaranteed):
http://sefskillz.com/gaf-we9/standings.php
Division A Bye-
If Irish beats FMT or Jelly, Lyon gets the bye through points. If he ties both, he also get the bye by virtue of the h2h tiebreaker vs. fifty. If Irish ties & loses or loses both games, fifty gets the bye via points.
Division B Bye-
Clinched by me by virtue of head-to-head tiebreaker over Hayami.
Conference I last playoff spot:
If LB wins either of his last two games or ties both, Inter is guaranteed the last playoff spot. If he loses both, then it appears that everyone left in the conference has a chance (remember tiebreakers are h2h then goal differential then playoff).
Not going to do Conference II right now as there's just too many games left to be played so it's still wide-open (literally every team is still mathematically in it)
