View Full Version : Kicking Ass = Get Ass Kicked...

With 37 points as of this week, a 5 point series lead, and only 1 week to go,
Tomahawks have taken IV.47's title for the second season in a row and became the undisputed champion of IV.47 since being promoted 2 seasons ago. Good News!!!

However, with the autopromotion line sitting at 32 points, we're locked into autopromotion as we're 6 points ahead of the line with only 3 points left to be had. As a result of us kicking ass in our cupcake IV series, we've just become the whooping boy for some lucky III series next season.

I didn't really want to autopromote, but I'm against outright 'throwing' of matches. I played normal today as I was almost positive I'd be MOTSed which would've given him the edge I hoped would beat me. I wanted to PIC, but being at home, I also wanted to minimize the hit from a home loss by bumping my odds of atleast scoring 1 goal. Turns out he normalled me and I owned him 5-nil. Bad News!!!

I'll enjoy my short stay in III next season, but more importantly I'll hopefully get relegated to a more exciting IV series the season after. It's just going to suck losing supporters and home game attendance for most of the season.

Viva La Cup Run is all I can hope for ;)

*right now, I'm slated to promote to III.1, where my brilliant middies will pale in comparison to some teams backups lol...

so, anything exciting happen elsewhere?

Yes, in my first game, even after MOTSing and tinkering as much as I could, I was blown out 5-0 by the 3rd place VI team. Youch. Next week I have a pretty pitiful opponent, so hopefully I can deliver some type of vengence on them, but my division looks to be fairly challenging next year with at least 3 decent teams and 3-4 cupcake teams (not counting mine :) ).

I'm hoping I can join you up there Panther. I'll likely get my ass kicked in III too, but I just want to get out of IV. I've been there way too long :P

I am currently over the auto-promote line... but the problem is that I'm in 2nd place. I play a very good team (Waterloo FC, made final 8 in the Cup) at my place in the last week for the title. My plan right now is to MOTS and cross my fingers... hope they don't get a divine midfield again :P

Well, assuming I win my qualifier, I guess we'll have the little "FOFC Gets Stomped In III" party next season. :)

A party? what party? Oh yeah, the "FOFC get stomped in III" party, I'm in!!!! :)

Clinched autopromotion, and currently set to go to the 4th toughest III league in Canada. Probably quite easier than the 4th toughest III in USA, but would be quite a task for my little team. Oh well, one week still to go, I'm MOTSing, we'll see :)

I've got two MOTS in a row left, assuming that I make win Sunday and make it to a qual. So I'm going to do what I can to make it to the party, even if it is in vain.

The South Bay Saints have 36 points and look forward to be a regular feature in the FOFC gets stompped in division III. Maybe, I'll end up in the same series as -Panther so we each get two matches in that we might have a chance at winning. Currently, I am scheduled to promote to III.4.

Ah, good times to be had next season :D Last week, I was slotted to go to III.7. Atleast if I went there, I could help TP in his quest to get back to II if he stays in III this season ;)

Would be cool as hell if we promote to the same series. Then we can fight over who gets the coveted 8th place lol

As long as I don't get into one of the Uber III's, I think I've got enough oomph in my lineup to scrape by in 6th place. I hope.

'Course, gotta win in a qualifier first, but I have faith I can get that one done.

I feel the same way about my team. I like to talk liek a pessimist though... it makes my team look better if I do well ;)

Ofcourse, I'll probably end up in either IV.19, IV.49, or IV.41 (yep, Havok's got one competitive series).

IV.49 would finally give DK some help in roughin' up the competition since he's been doing it too long on his own ;)

IV.19 and maybe I could help Lytic get some revenge and finally rough up the Evil Gargs :D

IV.41 and I'd most likely get smacked around by Havok and his alter ego Havoc ;)

but any of those would be series I'd love to be in, as their all very active from what I can tell. These damn cupcake 'almost bot' activeless series are almost making me bored.

Stay away from IV.41..... farrrrr away. If you think its bad now.... wait till next season. I still can't believe i'll only have the 5th best midifeld in the divison with 1 Magnificent and 2 brilliant starters.

I feel bad for the divison V teams auto-promoting to my series next season :) and the ones auto-promoting to Afoci's soon-to-be former series. IV.50 is no joke either!

You'll do much, much better next season once the schedule hooks you up a little.
