Fifty, can you play tonight at 7:30pm EST?
Fify, I can get on after LB's game if you are up for a double header. Yeah I think the performance issue is fixed. Some of the wiring were screwed up they found and fixed. It's comcastic. Last game I played ran much smoother. Yeah I'll post right before your game with LB to double check.
GG LB. I have to think you've had bad luck to finish last place..You totally dominated me. I was lucky to escape with a point.
edit: Srider..that was the worst lag ever. Unplayable. I had to pull my modem. That shit was a joke. I'm sorry your connection is so horrible, but that's not Winning Eleven. It wasn't persistant, but every 20 seconds or so it would freeze for 5 seconds. I hope you're not confused as to where I went, but if the lag was half as bad for you as it was for me I think you'll understand.

Yeah, it was horrid. I have no clue why it's doing that. Should we give it a try again later on in the evening? I moved to an apartment in Cali now, so it could be peak hour or what not. I'm pretty sick of this bandwidth problem, but since apartment has a contract with comcast it's not like my ISP is going to change anytime soon. I don't know what else to try, they've came a few times to check and they show me the measurement with the signal level being normal and whatnot.. Oh well, if you don't want to bother trying again, I can withdraw from the cup since my connection is just too on and off like that.
Well I don't know. I don't feel like trying later tonight, but perhaps that would solve it. You being in California, while I'm in Toronto can't help either..but it's the flakey connection that's the main problem. The last resort (if it stays this bad) is leaving the cup, but I'd rather not have it come to that. Still, no way you can play if it's this bad. Give it a shot in the evening and see if it's better then.

Osorio said:
No prob.
Nice to see the real goal scorers' names in your recap, Osorio. (edit: I'm sorry....7-0. Damn that Huka...he beat me as well. We'll take him down in the next round!)
3 games approved so far tonight. Good stuff. Hopefully thursday brings some results as well, because I know the weekends can be tricky and I did want to open up the next round soon.
It'd be nice if Daig and Osorio were playing as I'm typing this...as that would finish both of their schedules
and finally...since I know he doesn't always check them, Srider, I sent you a PM.

Well.....we both had ten shots on net and I took 23. Barros, Heinz and Koller were cold and that didn't help my finishing abilities. I played about as well as I could with my squad. Two PK goals makes it a bit less painfull and a few fine goals by Osorio thrown in as well.
Srider said:
Alright. I know it's not your fault (personally I mean)...I'm sorry. Hopefully it improves..I've had ISP problems in the past, I know how frustrating it can be.
Daig: Yes, you're done. 8 games. But don't go away forever, playoffs will be starting soon so keep checking this thread. And thanks to Srider having to drop out, you will be the 4th wildcard seed (since Beatbox can't have two teams)
I tied the results of all of Srider's remaining games. At first I wasn't sure that was the right thing to do, to deny the chance of getting 3 points against him...but since none of the games affected people making the playoffs, I thought this was the best and easiest thing to do.
There is only one game left.

Rors vs Hayami.
It doesn't affect the playoff standings, but I'll give them until friday to play before I put the round 2 matchups up (check the site bracket when I do)
and just to start reminding ya'll...playoff matches will be set to 20 minutes, not 15
I don't think so. It doesn't change anything except you possibly seeding one spot higher than me, and I'll even give you the win and concede that.
Some people might think it's easier for them to play on the weekend and I wouldn't want to have them sitting around for 3 days for a basically meaningless game. I won't rush people through these playoffs, but I'd like to put the matches up on friday.

Ok guys, I booked the playoff matches. I hope everyone reads this post, because I'm changing a couple rules. I'll put this at the start of the thread to raise my odds
Important playoff settings
-20 minute games not 15
-Silver goal extra time, with penalties on
-Every game is a single game elimination, no more two game series

The bracket image itself isn't working, but the games are posted there. Please enter in a brief recap, and I'd encourage everyone to look at the other recaps so it's not just me and the recapper benefitting from them.
I will be giving everyone until midway through next week to play the first round games. But I don't think I'll need to be bugging anyone to play their games. If you have any questions, PM me.
