FOFC Cup: Groups A-E week 1

I am just getting a head start to keep track of who has challenged who etc.

When you challenge and/or are booked just leave a note in here thanks!

Thanks HFP..

..The only real gripe I have is that if your squad has to travel overseas for a match (as is the case with my squad, having to travel to the UK to face Katon's Lancre Wowhawks, in Group D action), you should in turn be guaranteed 3 Home Matches in Group Play to make up for the travel expense.. Especially considering how low my team is ranked, I feel as if I should've been given 3 Home Matches, any advantage my squad could get would be of help..

Oh well, no biggie though.. Just wanted to bring it up..

Thanks for putting this together..

I'll answer for HornedFrog since we worked on this together. Our first train of thought was to make sure that no team would have to travel more than twice. That meant paying a very special attention to teams outside of the US. Then we didn't take a very good look at who would get 3 home games and who would get 2 home games.

Your team was at first supposed to have 3 home games, but we ended up having to switch your home game versus Katon's team to his place. Sorry about that, it just fell that way...

Remember that all of the foreign teams will have to travel twice and pay that travel fee twice, my team is among them...

Hope it makes sense.

Well, I would have challenged ausonny already, but my guys are still on the plane flight home from France. I'll propose the challenge tonight after work, or accept the challenge if he beats me to it.

EDIT: This is for Group C's marquee matchup in group play, 1 v. 2

Ok, Ausonny beat me to the challenging, but I accepted that challenge like a pro Looking forward to it Ausonny...should be a good match. I apologize in advance, though...you're not taking on my true 'B' squad. A couple of my guys are injured so you have to deal with a starter or three.

EDIT: Again, to help HFP and those in charge, this one is for Group C.

Isla Vista Vandals AT Bees booked.

My B Team will make you eat those words, Lake Erie swiller or at least smelle- I mean, challenge accepted.

I haven't had a chance to read here the last couple days so I may be saying something that's already been said 50 times, but a suggestion for next cup: put the week 1 games last so that 1-2 matchup happens in the last week of group play with a lot on the line.

Just so you all know, I have added a checklist page of all the week 1 games that have to be booked. It tells you who has booked their game and who still has to book them.

Once week 1 will be over, this will become a week 1 results page and I will put up the week 2 checklist page.

The link is in my sig...
