Blood Bowl League 3.3 Week 3

[Ghostwolf67]

The essex bowl has been unfortunately ruined by the womenfolk. The only day temps could play was wednesday (for which i was out with my girlfriend) and the rest of his week has been spent at his gf's house (where he has no computer).

Will need the massive admin power of Panda to resolve this female conspiracy.

That would be good Narly. I had found the destination and moved the file into twice but there is fundamentally something wrong with each download when I load it on my PC.

Getting a replay from bbmanager is a piece of piss, and I could do with watching the replay anyway with me playing Panda next. I've never been in a comp with a 100% defeat record before so need a point from somewhere. At least it fits with the fluff.

Hopefully in the bye week when I get some cash Renton won't run off with it.

Barn, I uploaded it to the Crunch Them All league in bbmanager. I dont think anyone will mind if its there. I made it MD20, so its easy to find.

I give the sausages a very good chance of winning the last match of the season

I will be without a computer from 11dec until 25 dec so unless I will find a coach who's willing to substitute for me I'm not able to show up for the match

I think we can get a game before that... I have a lot of flexibility with my hours... anytime you can manage before Dec 11 is fine by me.

I'll PM you my cell phone so you can SMS me anytime. I live in GMT... but I sleep only after 2 am.

 

[Panda with issues...]

Rolled over. 0-0 draws admined for remaining games.

 

[Barninho]

Not being funny here but shouldn't I have got an admined win? Snap vanished and made no attempt to play the game.

 

[thatbloke]

Actually I agree with Barninho....

Generally if there's no game (especially as a first offence) it is policy to award a 0-0 draw. However:

Was there no contact made by Snap at all? If so, I can only apologise and say I've made a mistake, and yes, you should have had a 2-0 win. Perhaps I can redress it in your bye week? I appreciate it's not an ideal solution.

You won't be able to address it in the bye-week. Even if you allocated Barn 5 TD's, it will still only give him 16 SPP and double winnings. We tried it in another league we are playing in when something similar happened.

I'm not sure what happened to Snap. I haven't seen him recently over at bbtactics either.

 

[thatbloke]

I know he mentioned he would be away for a while for Thanksgiving...

 

[Barninho]

Yeah absolutely no contact at all from him. If he said he couldn't play for a reason there would have been no problem. I'd quite happily offer him the draw.

Not complaining though, just wanted clarification. I wouldn't want to be doing your job mate.

Your record with admin'd results is pretty special Barn. Its as if you have some kind of secret curse or something!

In this case, what I'll do is award you a 6-0 bye week which will account for the missing SPP. When it comes to promotion/relegation, well, the lost points can be taken into account since it's done manually. I know this isn't the ideal situation, but it's the best I can do. Having looked back through the thread, there's no posts by Snap at all, so I should have realised. All you've really lost is 11 SPP on players before our game (and so it looks like a sinister admin conspiracy to favour my team, unfortunately) which you'll get a week late, with a bonus spp point.

My maths: You'll get 2 touchdowns that you should have had in the admined result vs snap.
2 touchdowns for the bye week. 2 MVPs from the bye week.
2 TDs to counteract the fact that you missed out on the second MVP from the admined result, leaving you with a net gain of 1 spp.

Sorry about the mix up. - At least you'll go into next season strong?

When are you available to play our game?

 

[Barninho]

Haha. Narly is referring to my greatest ever victory when I beat Raven's Ogres 6-1 with my Dark Elves only to find the day had been rolled over while we were playing, giving me a 0-0 draw instead.

Compared to that, this is nothing. The spp bonanza sounds lovely though Panda. As I said, mistakes happen and I wasn't expecting anything, but I will happily take it if it's on offer.

Far as the points go, I would feel pretty gay finishing above anyone based on admined points because someone has vanished. So far in games against humans I am 0-0-2, but I suppose there is a chance I could finish strong if I managed to beat you, and 9 points would be a pretty strong tally that I don't think is deserved, so I will happily do without the 2 extra. I would have been well happy with the draw considering I was playing Dwarfs, even Dwarfs where the Runner rolls for bonehead. I know someone else dropped points to Snap, so I don't think it's right if I finish above them just because he didn't turn up this week. In a small comp like this 2 points can be huge.

If you are free I could conceivably play from 1900 to 2100 GMT tonight. If there's a better week-night in this time slot it is do-able, but I will not be able to commit till at least tomorrow night. I have two exams next week so should be revising but if you're stuck I could conceivably sort something out.

I am likely to have plenty of free time, but I don't know which bits of the week those will be in, if you follow me, so don't worry if tonight sucks.

Its a friendly league. You'll get the points you deserve. Going up or down is nothing to be ashamed of (unless you're a THN regular, in which case relegation will be rubbed in mercilessly).

Sorry I couldn't play tonight. Steak and beer for £5.85 night at the pub. How about wednesday at 7.30?

 

[Barninho]

No worries.

I should be OK for Wednesday. Lets shoot for then.
