Cup Round 4 - Come here to bitch and moan about the hattrick engine :)

robbgmaier · 08-13-2003, 05:35 PM

While I can't win a game in league to save my coach's life, I have good shot at my first ever home cup match win. Good luck all, and where the heck is frogman?

vex · 08-13-2003, 05:47 PM

He ran off with HFP.

robbgmaier · 08-13-2003, 06:04 PM

hey, where is everyone on mIRC, am I in the wrong place? help!

vex · 08-13-2003, 06:07 PM

Sidekicks up 1-0 after 4 minutes!

robbgmaier · 08-13-2003, 06:19 PM

I downloaded mIRC, but I don't know how to get to undernet, can someone help this poor fool out?

DukeRulesMAB · 08-13-2003, 06:20 PM

Down 1-0, gonna be a loooong game.

vex · 08-13-2003, 06:22 PM

I never figured out how to use MIRC.

McSweeny · 08-13-2003, 06:26 PM

i'm down 2-0 early to a D.II team in TP's series... looks like it'll be a long long match

McSweeny · 08-13-2003, 06:31 PM

3-0 now

YoSoySean · 08-13-2003, 06:31 PM

Game is still 0-0. Both teams have missed a chance... my inexperienced CD almost gave up a goal... and they have two yellows.

YoSoySean · 08-13-2003, 06:33 PM

woohoo! winger gets 2nd yellow of the game for opponent! 11 on 10!

robbgmaier · 08-13-2003, 06:33 PM

ronnie, pls tell me how to get this thing started....:-(

The Afoci · 08-13-2003, 06:37 PM

I am down 2-0. I thought I might have a chance playing normal, I should have PIC'ed and just taken it.

McSweeny · 08-13-2003, 06:46 PM

well now it's 3-0 at the half, but one of their guys got sent off and they only had 61% possesion so i may have an outside chance at upsetting this one

vex · 08-13-2003, 06:48 PM

I'm tyed 1-1 at half. The other guy scored in the 44th minute! I'm dominating with a huge 51/49% possession.

Easy Mac · 08-13-2003, 06:48 PM

I'm somehow tied nil-nil, but the opponent has 68% possession. May take a miracle to win... but i got paid 60K for the crowd, I'm happy.

The Afoci · 08-13-2003, 07:00 PM

I am down 3-0, but he has gone defensive.

illinifan999 · 08-13-2003, 07:10 PM

Fighting held the ball, with a clear 80 percent possession rate.

Considering my B team puts up weak or poor midfields, his middie's must not have legs. Or brains.

illinifan999 · 08-13-2003, 07:13 PM

In the ML

Slashers is tied 2-2 with Sayreville Tsunami
KC Wizards are up 3-1 vs FC Black Shepherd
Shaolin is up 3-0 against Buenas Peras

illinifan999 · 08-13-2003, 07:14 PM

Fighting put themselves up 3 - 1 when Roger Sisk broke through on the right, leaving the entire defensive box behind him.

Waiting for the inevitable comeback from the D4 team.

YoSoySean · 08-13-2003, 07:15 PM

After 58 minutes Intercourses John Atkins made his way through the middle, putting the visitors up 0 - 1.

All I have to say is: It's about damn time.

DukeRulesMAB · 08-13-2003, 07:15 PM

3-0 down. Guess that MOTS was a poor decision.

YoSoySean · 08-13-2003, 07:16 PM

Intercourse´s Byron Perryman received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 61st minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 0 - 2. The home crowd was not pleased with that one.

They come in bunches.

Doug5984 · 08-13-2003, 07:21 PM

damn I am losing 2-0, oh well....

dacman · 08-13-2003, 07:23 PM

The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Rochester, with an impressive 93 percent possession of the ball.

Damn! 93% possession and only a 1-0 halftime lead? Oh well, I'm up 3-0 now.

McSweeny · 08-13-2003, 07:25 PM

well they just went up 4-0 even though they're down a man... looks like i'll be crashing out of the cup

There goes IV.5's perfect cup record... (you and a couple others are losing)

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:26 PM

Despite MimeBox having a QuikSand puzzle of possesion in the first half, it finished wit me up 1-0. No updates so far in second. If you want to see a possible D.V over D.IV upset in the making, here's the info.

Team #: 71980
Game #: 9441654

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:27 PM

Damn, The visiting teams Michael Mendez could score the 1 - 1 equaliser in the 71st minute with a header, after some good work on the right.

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:30 PM

Damn, I just remembered that I forgot to set my lineups this week. That means no PK order...

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:46 PM

For the second week in a row at City Lights, we have Overtime!

(I'm just glad it will give me a few more minutes in the cup after they had 76% possesion in half 2).

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:48 PM

I did manage to knock out one of their defenders though, so they're down to 2

mckerney · 08-13-2003, 07:50 PM

MimeBoxs Mort Varner proved that he's been around on a footy pitch before, when he took advantage of a few moments of confusion in the enemy defence line, then elegantly scoring 1-2. With that MimeBox had won the game in extra time.

Boooo! Expected, but if I had actually set my lineup I think I would have had a better change. Put up shitty ratings too.

I have karate class on Wednesday and I usually watch something like 35 minutes of my team's game. Since I got booted from the cup last week, this week is a friendly for me, I had nothing to report about this. Won 4-1 against terpkristin's B-C-D team

Vince · 08-13-2003, 07:59 PM

Wow, wow, wow.

At 00:45:00 exactly, I decided to change my tactics to include my starters and MOTS, in the hopes of getting one more home cup game.

Down 2-0 at the half and with only 53% possession, I was quite worried.

Ten minutes into the second half, we had tied it at 2.

Five mintues later, we missed on a scoring chance...they come back and miss on a scoring chance two minutes after.

Going through the final minutes, I'm agonizingly sure that my third straight Cup game was going into OT...

But in the 88th minute...

"Vandalss Raymond Hyatt gave, after 88 minutes, the home team a 3 - 2 lead after an attack coming in from the right"

And there was much rejoicing

Easy Mac · 08-13-2003, 08:06 PM

A 1-0 96th minute loss. 59 NSI, 30 stars. Eh, I got thoroughly outplayed in the midfield, so I'm thankful it was a close score. Makes me glad I am starting to train passing for a while, b/c my passing just sucks ass, and I can't generate an attack if my off. middie is wretched and the forwards are wretched and poor in passing (not to mention a wretched passing winger, who still manages 3 stars.

Thankfully, my D can pass like mad (inad./pass/solid), so I shoud be good at counterattacking when that starts working.

illinifan999 · 08-13-2003, 08:16 PM

I. Hate. The. Hattrick. Server.

illinifan999 · 08-13-2003, 08:23 PM

Amazing, my B team put a passable midfield while PICing to a 5-1 win, which means one more home game!
