Given Ginger has missed two turns in a row, and is holding this up, I'll sub myself in for him. If he shows up he can join back in for his next go.

For the turn he missed earlier:
Donald

For the last turn in this round:
Ban Ambrose

For the first turn of the new round:
Ban Garner

Sorry Jamee. The Aussie team is pretty nerfed to date with Bradman and Gilly gone. The Windies will run away with this elsewise.

Team so far:
Kallis
Donald

Jamee up.

 

[Matt79]

<sigh>. Goughy can go I suppose. Is anyone actually interested in this? because I'll stop dragging the thread to the front page if not.

 

[Mister Wright]

Bummer. Would have like to participate, but will keep a keen eye on proceedings.

 

[Matt79]

If people want to try again, and actually do it, I'm happy to restart, or start a new one, and the current one can continue at its own pace...

 

[Jamee999]

Sorry Matt, I'm a bit busy atm, and I keep missing this thread, but I am interested.

Don't worry mate, I'm just coming over all over-sensitive

I'm confused about the banning players, I was under the impression that I could either select or ban players, but not both in each turn...

Correct, you missed 3 turns. So 2 bans and 1 selection were made, each being a separate 'turn'.

 

[Furball]

2 turns per round?

note to self: wait until you're sober before you read threads like this.

 

[Athlai]

2 turns per round?

The last person in one round is the first person in the next so you make the choices at the same time in that instance.

 

[Furball]

So given that we've had 2 rounds, how on earth did I miss 3 turns?

 

[Matt79]

We've started the fourth round now.
