Remember toluca, an extension affects no one. There are no bonus points at stake and nothing is held up.

If they do tie, as dextr has said, there is a tiebreaking procedure. I'm pretty sure they'll play tomorrow or Tuesday. Messages have been sent and they really only missed each other by a couple of minutes tonight.

I think Craig will make a great league runner.Hes a nice guy and well aware of what goes on.My oppion only.

9.1 Fixtures
Cup fixtures are released at the discretion of the league. Each round has two weeks for matches to be completed (the final which will be scrutinised by league runners to see if a extension is required). All games must be complete by the deadline given.


Not according to the rules it says only the final at league runners discretion.

I agree with the extension even though i know if it went to default TD would have got the decision, i am just pointing out that it isn't in the rules and should be added.

nevermind

Lol i wonder what this said

That was before your second post haha. It said: "Wait, you actually want this to go to defaults?"

I was just pointing out that the extension isn't part of the rules, but i agree that it should be as no one wants to win a cup game on defaults but if you apply the rules in this case the game would have been decided on defaults.

DONE.

again with 15 players available and ony 5 matches this shouldnt happen in the first place

Bonus points

for next season maybe

there is no excuse with over 14 days to play and 15 players online not to get these games played.

My solution is to award 2 players on each side who
message each other and post the message on their own clan thread that they agree a time to play with maybe 3 time slots

If the game say gets played within 7 days allocate 3 bonus points

If the game say gets played within 10 days allocate 2 bonus points

If the game say gets played within 12 days allocate 1 bonus points

Zero points after the 12th day

Subs must be made after 7 days if no agreement is made by the players

however if one player has messaged they remain in the fixture (all they need to do is post their message on the first or second day on the opposing clan thread) and a sub must be made by the opposing team.

Maximum bonus points will be awarded to the player who messaged automatically and had been available to play

This will force captains into making subs earlier and to get games played and hopefully not leaving games till the end and all the rubbish being posted I did this she did that

its an idea to be looked at after recent events

why do teams leave their games till the 13th and 14th day is this tactical ???

is it to force teams into playing less experienced players

i dont know the answer but what i do know is this, the rubbish spouted to influence default staff is ridiculous, remember this its simple 14 days why did the captain or the vice be allowed to let this happen, they are supposed to be experienced.

i have had an incident where a player asked an opposing clan when they could play a game ,,,,,,,,, the response was dont harass the player maybe message him / her every 3 days....... fact

how about get your player online and message his / her opponent and arrange to play the game and stop the arguments.... everyone has an opinion and are quite happy to cause an all out war rather than just find an amicable solution.

im sure the usual argument seekers will knock my proposal ,,, however this is a problem and these so called people never seem to come back with constructive remarks ... just want to knock things how about thinking first

i like the bonuses idea, its an incentive to play quickly, im not keen on the subs though.

also about the extension i posted a quote seb said, and dex could have easily said no which would have been fine.

i like this idea alot will get game done quicker if u no theres points to get 1 prob how will u no how many points to give and is it for every play or is it just a team total?

the main points are to

help fixtures being played
avoivd defaults
stop arguments
dont penalise players for getting their games played

it will also show which players are reliable

it all needs to be discussed for next season

im also working on proposals for some rule changes

i like this idea alot should make less games go to default this way

craig are you still a league runner?

wow this shouldn't be here
