[Dvx Uk]

Come on ppl, we need more forum regulars in there!!!

You don't have to be any good, you may win the random player ticket :D

[Dcontrol]

I haven't got the time to enter myself :( at the moment but I have sent out a few messages to people on my friends list to see if they are interested in taking part. Let's hope this tournament runs smooth as well when it starts.

[robrymond]

I forwaded a message that DvX sent out, some responded to me on there saying they won't be entering but one or two said they would and I know 'richtaylor' as he is in my class at Uni!

[fincheyboy]

Signed up, I'm terrible like :) Only got the game the other day, not had a go yet.

[Achilles06]

Can i make a request to have more people who only have just braught the game to sign up please lol w00t w00t

[Achilles06]

[Glitch100]

[Achilles06]

[Trixstar-SA9]

i have just realised something i am on ps3 is this a tournamount for xbox users only? let me know asap cause i could ruin the tournamount if there is no one in reserve

[Dvx Uk]

Yeh it's for 360 mate :s Sorry I should have made that a lot more clear.

Do you have to pull out then?

[Swift_Muziq]

Barca should be banned!

[Dvx Uk]

Not too many people went Barca so it's not to bad. But everyone had the choice so you could have gone them if you wanted :D

[richtaylor101]

i was gonna go with grimsby but after further thought I went against it..would've been awesome tho.

are we allowed to use updated squads...ie..keane and defoe at spurs...

[WACCOE]

I'm so gonna rape this tourny.

Ranked 1500th in the world steaming through....

[WACCOE]

Yeah what are we doing about squad files DVX?

It's fairly obvious to me people are going to edit them and cheat.

[Dvx Uk]

No editing of Team is allowed! PERIOD!

Hopefully ppl playing will have common sense not to cheat, as we all know what happens to cheaters, dont we! :|

[Trixstar-SA9]

yeah my friend can take my place though if you want

[Dvx Uk]

well we have a reserve, but incase we need another reserve get him to sign up then PM me :)

I can't seem to find my match partner Helbiggetje neither on this site under the users list nor on XBL.
Plus I'm seeing lots of and mainly only 5 star teams and mostly it's Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool, the teams should have been limited so that every competitor has a different team assigned, on a first come first serve basis, but I guess this can be noted for the next tourney ;)

1) yeh that GT doesnt seem to exist. I'll email him later tonight and let you know. You've shown you're here at least so if i dont get a response you'll proceed to the next round

2) I considered that, however I wanted no-one to complain that they didnt get to go a specific team etc.

I failed to notice that this tournament was for the 360 instead of the Playstation before i signed in. :zip:

So i quess you win the first round mate.

[ADRENALiN]

That explains it mate, lol. No worries.

[Fleeboi]

Joe and Waccoe ftmfw.

That is all.

[mjmaskrey]

Dunno what this T A IV K guys is up to.....message him the other day...no reply until yesterday when I got a few abusive messages (supposedly someone else on his account).

Either he wants to play and does so by Tuesday or ---- it.

:)

I have apologised for my "friends" message(which he sent to every fifa player :(
I have already sent you a message about when we can play, i just dont want the match to be sore because of my mate

[Dvx Uk]

LMK if you guys need more time. As long as games are going to be played i dont mind (Y)

[mjmaskrey]

We'll play it tonight....the match won't be 'sore'.

As said before, I only entered to make up the number and wouldn't even expect to score a goal never mind winning!

:)

:D nice to see you not taking offence to something that could very easily be construed as me just being, well a ---- to put it bluntly(even if it wasn't me:p). Ah well look forward to the match, maybe around half 8?

[Dvx Uk]

Nice one guys (Y)

:party:

[Joe]

I take it I'm through?

[WACCOE]

Yo DVX - any chance in the results thread or fixtures thread or whatever you can put all the scores up and that.

Also, are you doing the 2nd round draw tomorrow?

[Dvx Uk]

I'll get something sorted :D

All things going well though Next round fixtures will be tomorrow :D

[Dvx Uk]

I take it I'm through?

Double POST FTW :p

Just read that. Yes, the other guy hasn't made any attempt to my knowledge to make contact :D

[Dvx Uk]

Right, the apprentice is finished.

Let me sort all this out now :D cheers

C

[Dvx Uk]

Right. We have 12 games played, 4 no shows :/ which means we're looking for 4 new players to make up the 16 to advance.

What are peoples opinions to give 4 of the eliminated 12 players a chance to re-enter the tourny??? - Via random pull name out of a hat style?

LMK with your thoughts and solutions please!!! :D

[WACCOE]

You're the boss, just make a decision and draw it out.

The people who wanna play are sat around waiting...

Could just randomly give so many out of the 12 people a bye into the last 8?

[Rob]

I'm out of the tourny but i'd love to have another chance. I can understand if people that are through don't want eliminated players back though, i guess it just makes the tourny more fun instead of just playing for a prize then leave.

[mjmaskrey]

Bring the 4 back in....at least if they've played once they should play the next games too, better than having no-shows.

:)

[Rob]

So what's happening with this tournament? It just seems to have stopped :S

[Dvx Uk]

[Rob]

Good good, also whats happening with the fixtures that haven't been played? Are you going to bring in other people or go straight ahead with the tourny?

[Dvx Uk]

I'll be looking to bring in 3 other people form the 13 who got knocked out. This will be down randomly :D

Keep an eye out for this thread in about the next hour :D

I'll make a start on it after ive got a drink :p
