Week 14 is on, it's time to kick some bot's butt

[FrogMan]

For most of us, the final competition game of the season. For some of us, the preparation a qualifier, noetheless it's week 14 in Ht world.

For the Pintendre Pittbulls, it's the last game of the season, probably their last game in fivision V, at least for one season, because with a win, they will auto-promote to division IV.

To make sure that win will not elude us tonight, we are MOTSing our bot opponent, hence the title of this thread :D

Other interesting matches in Canada include Ally's Les Joujoux's match where they can clinch a qualifying match for promotion to III with simply a tie. They play the 4th place team.

Also, bbor is playing to avoid auto-relegation to V. He can make that happen with a win or a tie, as he sits in 5th place and plays the 6th place team.

I'll let you know when something happens!

The goldfish match is a real one man show!

[FrogMan]

yeah, that Matthew Leask is a heck of a player :)

MikeVic, the owner of Goldfish, has kind of stopped managing his team. I think he has not logged in in the last two weeks...

FM

[PilotMan]

Yeah, I kinda guessed that. Its funny when almost every event is about one player. 4 goals and a card.

Shouldn't you be winning more than 2-0 at this point? ;)

[FrogMan]

yeah, I'm kinda pissed about it damnit! :mad:

Guess there have been no scoring chances, cause I'm pretty certain that as soon as there will be one, we'll get it and put it past the goalie :)

FM

[FrogMan]

Les Joujoux is now down 2-0 after 35. They are in 1st place in their league, with 32 points and a 34 goals differential.

The second place team is called Ghetto Blasters (106968) and they have 29 points with a 33 points differential. They are now up 2-0, playing at home...

If Ally loses and the other wins, she ends up 2nd...

FM

[FrogMan]

finally another goal for the Pittbulls, 3-0, second goal of the game for Per Rossten.

FM

[PilotMan]

4-0 is more like it FM, I am looking for much more in the second though.

[FrogMan]

ARRRGH!!! My excellent set pieces dude is out with an injury. Let's hope it's not serious and he can get back for the new season. It's not like his a youn puppy anymore.

In the meantime, it's now 5-0 Pittbulls, after a second from Raúl de Carvalho and a goal from Stefan Olenfeldt... We are now pulling back, bummer!

I tell you, I expect that if there's a scoring chance allocated by the game engine, it will go to us and we will put it in :)

[PilotMan]

bbors better win playing against a 2-5-2 formation!

[FrogMan]

at the half:

Pittbulls are up 5-0 with 80% possession
Les Joujoux are down 0-2 with 43% possession
Bbors are up 1-0 with 60% possession
Walk-In special is up 1-0 with 59% possession
Goldfish is down 0-4 with 44% possession

Doesn't look good for Ally, as the 2nd place team in her league is now up 3-0 with 76% possession. It's all in her hands now. She neds to at least tie to have a chance at a qualifier...

FM

[FrogMan]

I'm off to go take care of my BBQ gril duties, I'll see ya later!

FM

[bbor]

BBQ!!!bring me some!!

i am barely beating the 2-5-2

i have been MOT'S';ING all seaon my team is playing way under how they should.

[bbor]

2-0...and my Attacking coach is pulling back...oh well..you'd hope that i could defend a 2-0 lead playing 4-5-1 against 10 men.

[PilotMan]

you would hope.

[bbor]

3-0...woohoo no auto relegation :)

Now all i have to do is win my relegation game....or throw it :)

[FrogMan]

quick break from the grill to see 10-0 on the scoreboard... Mission accomplished, bot demolished :D :D

Good luck everyone else, now it's time to go eat the BBQed stuff, and no bbor, there won't be any leftovers ;)

[robbgmaier]

Since I'm still in the semifinals of the FOFC consolation cup, and I'm already guaranteed auto-promotion, I'm brazenly risking my perfect season by PICing in my last competition game of the season. I hope the Lancre Wowhawks are scared and running around like little girls after a ghost story.

good luck all, I'll be plastering the board with updates from across the USA, try not to be annoyed :)

[MacroGuru]

Well, the first ever sellout at the Lancers Lair!

He has a player with a card, and almost scored on me.

I am MOTS this guy just to ruin his day if I win, and hope the Portland Timbers lose. If so, I go to 4th and don't have to play a qual match

[robbgmaier]

DataKing is down 1-0, and the Soccerwussies are up 1-0. If those results hold, DK goes down....

[MacroGuru]

Well, it doesn't look like the Timbers will lose, they are up 2-0 right now, and I am at a 0 - 0 stand still.

Dang it. Here comes the qual match. Looks like I fire my coach after this game

[NAIWF]

Yet to score on a new team running a 4-3-3, this blows.

[cthomer5000]

we currently have a too-close-for-comfort 1-0 lead right now. A tie or loss and we kiss the series goodbye.

[MacroGuru]

My keeper needs a raise. He has stopped two solid shots for goals.

This guys MF must rock

[Jets80]

Playing the #1 team in V.201 and trying to force him to have to play a qualification match.....Dont want to jinx it, but the Jets have a 0-2 lead just before half time.

[robbgmaier]

The Slumlords are currently nil-nil on the road in their 1 v. 2 match up. Since they need a five goal win to take the division, it looks like they will have to reload for next season.

The Seamen are now down 2-nil, and the wussies are still up 1-nil.

[robbgmaier]

Needing a five goal win to earn a qualification match, the Flying Condors are also at nil-nil

[NAIWF]

Up 2-0 w/ 2 missed chances. One of my defenders a week from popping solid was taken out! grrrrrr.

If I can maintain this lead, I finish 3rd in the series.

[cthomer5000]

While dominating posession (85%), I'm only up 1-0. The only other game that affects me is currently a miraculous 2-2 tie. If the second place team ties or loses that game then I win the series regardless of my outcome. If I win my game, the series is mine.

[GoldenEagle]

I am winning 5-0.

[PilotMan]

Halftime score was 1 - 1. Midwest held the ball, with a clear 54 percent possession rate.


This is not good, If we somehowod not win it will mean a qual match for promotion which we most certainly lose because of the MOTS today.

Although, if I didn't mots today I pobably would have lost anyway.

[robbgmaier]

While rival Rockets FC is locked in 2-2 tie at the half, the Bastards are improbably down 1-0 to last place Ninja's, who with their first half goal, have now scored only nine on the season. The Bastards need to win and have the Rockets lose to earn a qualification match.

[DukeRulesMAB]

Tied 0-0 on the road with 57% possession. We seem to be playing pretty well, as this is a team ranked one spot and 6 points above me.

[DukeRulesMAB]

Feh, down 1-0 now. The rain is causing havoc on my players (have two bad messages about it).

[PilotMan]

Midwests Metin Arnold gave, after 47 minutes, the home team a 2 - 1 lead after an attack coming in from the right. The home sides Delano Schouten twisted a free kick home in the 55:th minute, putting Midwest ahead 3 - 1

This makes us much happier. great way to start the half.

[MacroGuru]

Well, I am now down 0 - 1, and I am thinking I am screwed.

[McSweeny]

up 5-0 against a brand new team playing their first ever match. Mark Loomis just got his hattrick for the Hooligans. We're looking in fine form heading into our relegation match next week

[robbgmaier]

Sweden Heights has leveled against the wussies, a result which give the seamen a qualification match

Rockets FC are now trailing 3-2, which would give the Bastards a qualification match, if they can beat the hapless ninja's, who still hold a 1-nil lead.

[robbgmaier]

seconds have they leveled, Sweden Heights went up 2-1. When that score went up, 30,000 fans at the Docks went nuts, even though the home side was still down 2-nil

[FrogMan]

Sweden Heights is now winning over the wussies!!!

FM

[robbgmaier]

down 3-1, it looks like APOC will not be able to autopromote, but a division title AND a cup finalist at least is not too shabby.

Panther FC is ahead 1-0 nil, and would autopromote with a win or a tie.

[DukeRulesMAB]

Down 2-0 now, not happy with this second half at all.

[NAIWF]

Up 3-0 now, 3rd place is all but assured.

[robbgmaier]

with the Seamen now down 4-nil, it all hinges on sweden heights not losing to the wussies. sweden is still up 2-1

[MacroGuru]

Woot 1-1 tie!

[robbgmaier]

up 5 points with 2 games remaining, calibiri now stand to finish second in IV.46, as they are down 4-1, with rival Raiders FC winning a 5-0 walkover...

[cthomer5000]

Interesting subplot in my series: 3 players (on 3 different teams) are now tied for the series points lead, and 1 player is trailing the other 3 by one goal with just 13 minutes of play remaining.

[robbgmaier]

The Bull Dogs are wraping up V.1, as they currently lead 3-0

[robbgmaier]

on the road, needing a win over first place Blacksquid for the title, the Slithy Toves currently hold a narrow 3-2 lead

[robbgmaier]

Currently up 3-0, Panther City FC will be bypassing the promotion match and headed straight up to the big time. WOOT WOOT!

[NAIWF]

Up 4-0, and have missed 3 chances. I've never had a chance to score more than this. Too bad I was on the road, it would've been nice to pound someone this badly at home.

[Jets80]

Seems like there are some big games out there tonight. good luck guys in the final 10 mins.

Im at the edge of my seat as my Jets try to pull off the upset and clinch a disappointing but acceptable 3rd place in V.201

[cthomer5000]

My match is turning ugly. We sent one of their players off with an injury, leaving them with 10 men on the field. We're receiving cards like it's Christmas, and my top forward is now out of the game with an injury. I'm up just 1-0, and I have to win. A tie will cost me the series. I can't take this!

[MacroGuru]

I have a question, how soon do we know who we play for the qualification matches?

I will be playing a Div VI team coming up, I would like to know who so I can set the squad, and if need be, buy some talent for the match

[robbgmaier]

needing a win (up 4-1) and a Twinkle Toes loss (down 1-0), G-Vegas could be heading for the division title

[FrogMan]

Dennis:

just like with cup games, at some point tonight, or tomorrow morning, you should know...

FM

[DukeRulesMAB]

Drew back to 2-1....c'mon guys just one more late goal, I want a quickie point. :)

[MacroGuru]

Thanks FrogMan,

I am at a 1-1 tie with this team, heading into the final 5 minutes. And I hope to win, if not, I just sit here. at 6th, looking to play someone from the VIth

[DukeRulesMAB]

Ask and you shall receive. :D

Milton Watts found a gap in the home sides central defense scoring with a long shot, making it 2 - 2.

[robbgmaier]

needing to fend off Colorado in the final game of the season, Chesapeake is up 4-0, and will finish with a perfect season and a trip to division IV.

[MacroGuru]

Well, with a MOTS, I went to a 1-1 tie with The Crazy Bastards.

[cthomer5000]

we barely held on for a 1-0 win and the series title. that was MUCH too close.

[robbgmaier]

While the Seamen lost for the second time in a row at the Docks, Sweden Heights came through with a win to give the Seamen a qualification match.

The Bastards had every reason to celebrate when Rockets FC were seen to be losing in the second half, but since they couldn't beat lowly Ninja's, they will be relegated. The horror.

And then, you have a very, very good chance of playing a bot team. See some updates from my bot demolishing experience today :D

GOOD LUCK!!!

The North County Raiders, with DS patches adorning their unis, took care of the Fighting Illini, 4-0. The win propels them past the FI for third place!

Second year in a row for the Raiders finishing in third.

With the money I made from the Sumner transaction, I've already purchased two excellent playmakers. I also have bids on an excellent playmaker, a 17 year old solid scorer, and an excellent keeper.

I may have to lose one of these bids to avoid the red, but I'm really excited about the direction that my team is going!
