I'd have to concur, that the group play was the most fun. The thing is, we have to plan it so far out. . . Last year we didn't, so a single elimination was the only way to go.
Another thing...with our teams developing, we may have more than a few who last past 4 cup games.

Since it is an odd cup number and the Gargoyles have already won Cups 1 & 3, I figure that I would be favored to win Cup 5. :D
I'm in!
I would vote for Group Play as well. It keeps everybody in the cup a lot longer. However, as our teams get better, more people will be in US Cup longer, thus we will have less time to run the cup . . . After looking at the schedule I would say that the cup should start on January 7th (equivalent of 9th round in the cup or week 8 in league play). With an 8 week cup schedule, we could fit it in with the final being the Wednesday after Qualifiers.
We could run the cup in a couple of different ways, depending on number of participants. I say that we stick to that schedule because, also if we start earlier, people may be out of town/away from their computers for the Holidays, so they may not have a chance to accept invites in time, etc . . .
Proposal 1:
64 teams - Top 64 teams, who are not in US Cup when FOFC Cup starts AND have signed up for the FOFC Cup, based on FM's rankings. 16 groups of 4, top 2 from each group makes, playoffs of 32, which is single elimination. Total: 3 weeks group play, 5 weeks playoff.
Proposal 2:
All takers - Divide the teams up into groups of 4, arranged on FM's rankings. Unlimited # of groups, however top 2 teams from each group are not guaranteed. Top team is guaranteed to make playoffs of 32, second place teams fill in the 32 based on points and goal differential. Total 3 weeks group play, 5 weeks playoff.
Let's hear some other ideas. :)

We'd have to consider walkover's too. I remember last time, that was an issue. Some teams got 5-0 walkovers, and skated in, which, if we were an antagonistic bunch, would have caused strife. Still, the walk-over thing has to be addressed.
I'm in favor of proposal 1, however, if there are enough signups, I think we should move to proposal 2. Starting with 1 does not exclude moving to 2 if there is enough interest.
Oh, and the Aves are in too.

Raven Hawk
11-11-2003, 05:51 PM
Oooohhh! Just had a cool idea!
Run it like the World Cups in HT!
Top 4 finishers from last year(or from FM's ratings) get a bye. All others have to enter the qualifiers.
3 Weeks of qualifiers based off of FM's ratings, whittling it down to 12 qualifiers, plus 4 byes. 3 weeks of group play based off of qualifier results. Top 2 teams make it from each of 4 groups to the semifinals, ranked on their pts and goal diff., 3 weeks of playoffs. Total 3 qualifier, 3 group play, 3 playoff. We'd have to start it on the 31st of December, however.
It would accomodate 100 teams - 4 byes, 96 qualifiers.
Or we could do 2 qualifier 3 group play, 4 playoff. This would accomodate 104 teams. 8 byes, 96 qualifiers.
If we can't fill the qualifier slots, qualifier teams can have byes based off of FM's rankings. This would give the better teams an extra week to lose in the US Cup.

<pre style="font-size: 8pt; line-height: .75">
my thoughts on the walkover are this:
once a team becomes a walkover, even for just one week, they forfeit all matches and
lose 5-0 to every team, regardless if they've played or not. ie:
Group A
Schedule:
1. Ballers - Kickers, Strikers - Retards
2. Ballers - Strikers, Kickers - Retards
3. Ballers - Retards, Strikers - Kickers
team played goals points
Ballers 0 0 - 0 0
Kickers 0 0 - 0 0
Strikers 0 0 - 0 0
Retards 0 0 - 0 0
1st round:
Ballers beats Kickers 3-2
Strikers beats Retards 1-0
team played goals points
Ballers 1 3 - 2 3
Strikers 1 1 - 0 3
Kickers 1 2 - 3 0
Retards 1 0 - 1 0
second round:
Ballers ties Strikers 0-0
Kickers beats Retards 3-1
team played goals points
Ballers 2 3 - 2 4
Strikers 2 1 - 0 4
Kickers 2 5 - 4 3
Retards 2 0 - 1 0
3rd round:
Retards doesn't book match, 5-0 walkover win for Ballers
Strikers beat Kickers 2-0
team played goals points
Ballers 3 8 - 2 7
Strikers 3 3 - 0 7
Kickers 3 5 - 6 3
Retards 3 0 - 6 0
ignore games played against Retards and set them all to 5-0 wins
Strikers gets 4 goals added since he beat them 1-0 in week 1
Kickers gets 2 goals added and 1 removed since he won 3-1
Retards get reset to 0-15
team played goals points
Strikers 3 7 - 0 7
Ballers 3 8 - 2 7
Kickers 3 7 - 5 3
Retards 3 0 - 15 0
that way, no one gets an unfair advantage as it becomes a matter of only doing better than
the teams that matter.
as for the team that became the walkover, too bad. if you become a walkover in the national cup,
you're out of it regardless if you had good reasoning or not.

-Panther, the problems with walkovers was this: it really biased your group if you had a walkover. Very few other games were 5-0 wins so those teams got huge advantages when choosing the "wild card" teams. The suggested remedy last year was to make it something more like 1-0 or 2-0 because 5-0 just set goal differentials out of whack.
I'm still on the fence about the FOFC Cup until we get a format. I'm really enjoying going international every week for friendlies so it all depends on how long it will take.

I really don't care too much about the actual score awarded, but I do think that if we get stuck with group play that one failure to schedule in time should cause walkovers to be awarded for the entire round.

Oh, I know. I just always end up in groups with all USA teams. Heck, I'd volunteer to be in a group with all international teams and play every game on the road just to defer the costs from smaller teams but that would screw up the ratings and make it unfair for everyone else.
And I'm definitely not going to badmouth the teams I've played in the Cups either- I've had exciting cup runs both years with one of the best groups 2 seasons ago and being in a run and shoot bracket last year (my first year was a drubbing at the hands of the Aviators in the consolation cup and the team doesn't care to speak about that ;) ).
Oh well. Either way. Who am I kidding, the Hippos are certainly in. I was tired from programming basically 4 days straight on a project and cranky and needed a nap and blankey. Things are much clearer in the light of day.

I like the idea of scheduling it like the HT Cups, but as long as it includes group play I'll be happy. I think one way to lower walkovers is to post another thread a week or two before it begins requiring confirmation from each team, or just discuss the format now abd delay signups until then.

Why? Is the experience from international friendlies too good? .1 vs .2 is almost negligable in my book. You need to support the FOFC Cup, give it legitamacy. Take one for the team, and all the other fancy cliche's.

Uhh, not possible. It takes 5 weeks to play 4 games with groups of 5 because someone will be idle every week. Unless you were only planning on 3 group phase games, but I'm guessing not. That's why we went with groups of 6 previously.

Thanks dacman, me=moron. I made this plan late last night and was tired... And yes, FOFC Cup 3 had groups of 6.
Guess we go with groups of 6 (min 5 FOFC Cup games) => 10 groups of 6. Top 3 from each group + 2 best 4th teams go to playoffs. FOFC Cup then ends on week 15

Ack- this is just getting longer and longer. This is why some of us end up questioning if we want to be in it every year: I like friendlies. I like scheduling my own friendlies. And as it is right now, ~5 of my weeks will be tied up with the USA Cup, 3-4 if I get upset. And another 6-8 in the FOFC Cup which potentially leaves me with 3 friendlies that I can schedule the entire season and that's not enough time to play games with supporters and get some international games in.
I've already said I'm in but I'm just saying for next year and future consideration, this is why a lot of people don't play in the FOFC Cup. In fact, if you play the FOFC Cup just so you have guaranteed friendlies- you probably shouldn't be playing at all.
SI
Or we just schedule groups of 4 => 3 mandatory games
As of now 14 (or 15) groups of 4 => Top 2 + 4 best 3rd move on to Round of 32, Then 16, 8, 4, Final
I guess I need to post a poll !
It will be either
- groups of 6 (5 games in 5 weeks) - Max duration 10 weeks
- groups of 5 (4 games in 5 weeks - 1 possible ouside friendly) - Max duration 10 weeks
- groups of 4 (3 games in 3 weeks) - Max duration 8 weeks
bump for potential new entrants

Dola I think we should do the seedings by FM's first week of rankings.

If there's a spot left, the Calibiri will join the dance. (If not, we'll be cheering!) :D
Like sterling, I'd be happy to be in the international group. Even if I have to travel for all the games.
Reading here. But not at home (parents house). Glad to see 2 famous FOFCers join !

For what it's worth, last year some people were a little disappointed by the week of rankings I used (due to PICs, etc). Might be a good idea to tell people in advance what week's rankings you are going to use for the seeding, that way no one can complain (not that people would complain...I think you know what I mean).
Yeah, I am leaning towards using week 4 or week 5 rankings, but that doesn't change a lot when I am going to present the way I see grouping the teams.
Teams will be placed in 4 tiers, and I intend on drawing one team from each tier for the group play. That way, we make the FOFC rankings a little bit less important.

That said, if it's at all possible the Calibiri would love to be in the same group as the Bbors so we can thump, er, I mean, play them in the Cup. If not, it's all good. We'll thump, er, I mean to say, play them afterward, too.
Darn my typing skill going the way of the US U-20 coach's. :D
We are now 64. Still accepting people for waiting list in case people opt out.
daedalus & al - for the seedings, I will put a poll with several options tomorrow.
Expect FOFC CUP V website to be launched next week.
As for the seedings poll, I'll do it also next week. I couldn't do it today (too much "real" work !)
Bump - Look for something to be done tomorrow.
Also, please note, that we are still accepting people on the waiting list in case of people not showing up when the roll-call time will come !
Will the four Missouri teams please stand up? :)

No idea were hulsey and saintjo are...i got achilles to log on...my team is solid, but i can only fovus on the fofc cup some weeks...focusing on it last year cost me a shot at the league title
I never focus on the coveted FOFC Cup. I just let people pick me off. But be warned, my B team is becoming very grizzled by their D3 trouncings! :)
I didn't leave any clothes there, did I? :)
shoot, i can't seem to find a set of clothes. Perhaps your room ate them.
