DO NOT USE CUP RULES!

Qwikshot · 05-07-2003, 10:41 AM

So for next week I need to challenge Calibri to a home friendly (not cup rules) as per the schedule?

You got it. Thanks for reminding me about not using cup rules.

MylesKnight · 05-07-2003, 05:28 PM

Is the only real difference between Cup & Non-Cup Rules the Overtime factor? Or is there something else I'm missing?

-Panther · 05-07-2003, 05:37 PM

Cup rules draw a slightly larger crowd and give a little more experience than regular non-cup rule friendlies.

RonnieDobbs · 05-07-2003, 08:53 PM

THe Boston Wyckyd Sceptre have challenged the Flying Condors for a normal rules friendly at their place.

BOO-YA FOFC Cup III BABY

Ok...just was able to challenge daedalus to a Ultra Nox home match (non Cup rules).

HornedFrog Purple · 05-08-2003, 10:16 AM

I (the Toads) challenged NevStar (Morrisville Morrisvillians) at his place, no cup rules.

NevStar · 05-08-2003, 12:05 PM

I (Morrisville Morrisvillians) accepted HornedFrog Purple's (the Toads) challenge, at my place, no cup rules.

I shall be the victor, most triumphantly. Huzzah!

AccardoOutfit29 · 05-08-2003, 03:52 PM

Game on!

FrogMan · 05-08-2003, 08:57 PM

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...

Aye, we're booked.

Bring it on, ya slimey Pennsylvanians...

NYFAN · 05-10-2003, 12:04 PM

What happens if my guy never accepts the game?

daedalus · 05-10-2003, 01:40 PM

I'd guess that by a certain deadline we'd have to remove the non-participants from the Cup and see about getting one of the teams on the waiting list steps in by Monday or Tuesday. Otherwise, you'd have to take a walkover per the rule. Then one of those teams could step in for the following week. Either way, we'd sort of have to figure a way to leave enough time to have you be able to get a friendly of some sort for Wednesday.

I'll have to remember to loan in some players from Ally before I play you next time.

FrogMan · 05-10-2003, 03:35 PM

deadline for accepting a challenge is set by rule to Monday, 5pm EDT. I'm not sure we should automatically take any teams out of the cup after one walkover though. Maybe not wait the whole week to sort it out, but we might want to try and reach the losing team any way we can, to make sure they are still alive and playing... Remember, shit happens. Somebody could be out on business or something else, but only this week and then everything could be fine. Anyway, I think we should talk about it with HornedFrog...

NYFAN · 05-10-2003, 05:22 PM

Well the thing is, I sent him a challenge once and he declined it... so he's out there... I then sent him a message telling him I was from the FOFCup and haven't had a response.

Coffee Warlord · 05-11-2003, 01:52 PM

Still waiting on Cowtown to accept the friendly.

NYFAN · 05-12-2003, 06:23 AM

So what's the verdict? 5 pm EST tonight if I still don't have an official match I'm allowed to go out and get me a friendly?

daedalus · 05-12-2003, 06:39 AM

Pretty much. Oh, and as per the rule, you get a 5-0 win out of it.

Coffee Warlord · 05-12-2003, 09:58 AM

You and me in a friendly if we get stood up for the Cup, NyFan?

NYFAN · 05-12-2003, 03:56 PM

Yea that sounds good, just challenge me.

NYFAN · 05-12-2003, 06:28 PM

Ok, I agreed... just want to let the frogmeister know that my team never responded, so i scheduled a friendly with galesburg who was in the same boat.

HornedFrog Purple · 05-13-2003, 02:57 PM

I got it all down, you and Coffee get a 5-0 win this week. Thanks for arranging the friendly between yourselves!

Raven · 05-15-2003, 01:54 PM

I was the team NYFan challenged. I hadn't read the boards for a few days and didn't realize the Cup was already starting. When I declined, I didn't know it was him challenging me.

By the time I got his message, and second challenge (late Monday night), he had already been scheduled to play someone else.

I'm here now though.

ps..NYFan, why did you challenge me again this week?
