Although it's a shame thanks for your response, noted.

Will seek to arrange a friendly with you in next 24-36 hours

Only include TNT if it creates and even number of teams... (I think it does!)

It does create an even number of teams, I was just going to have a bot as a bottom seed if Number 11 had joined. But at 18 teams, 2 groups of 9 right now

 

[Jarquis]

2 groups of 9 will need two bots

 

[JOJOXI]

1) The Merry Orangutans
2) Shris croquette team
3) Dynamo Morpork
4) Dynamo Schmaltzberg
5) Winton CC
6) Charminster CC
7) Honest Hunks
8) Moo
9) GG CC
10) Free HK
11) Z***x CC
12) Jura CC
13) The Buy Ins
14) Ashgrove Astronauts
15) Plymouth Pirates
16) ataraXIa
17) AtaraX Wellington
18) The Net Theorists

This is what I have @Marcuss

 

[Jarquis]

But groups of 9 mean four matches with one bye per round. So might as well add a bot to each group. Otherwise it’ll do the weird thing where you play against yourself.

Ah I didn't know it would make you play against yourself but thanks for the heads up. Will add a bot to each group then.

I've set up the competitions


Below are Groups A and B - teams listed with their T20 rankings. Start times are UK time - I've tried to do it so its not in the middle of the night anywhere although Group B was a bit tough with it being tough to get a reasonable time in Europe/South Africa that was also reasonable in Trinidad and New Zealand but looking online I think start time equates to 11pm in New Zealand and 7am in Trinidad.

The game time is one hour behind the actual time in the UK since the clocks changed so have put the start time in terms of game time and UK time.


Group A - 9am start game time (10am UK time)
***** CC - 32
Jura CC - 89
Ashgrove Astronauts - 114
Honest Hunks - 124
AtaraX Wellington -139
The Buy-Ins - 157
Dynamo Morpork - 174
Plymouth Pirates - 205
The Net Theorists - 223


Group B - 11am start game time (12pm UK time)
Free HK - 44
ataraXia - 46
GG CC - 115
The Merry Orangutans - 117
Dynamo Schmaltzberg - 130
Moooo - 169
Winton CC - 187
Charminster CC - 199
Shri's Croquet Team - 219

Haha, being antipodean gets me the short straw, especially when my sides are in separate groups. Will watch AX-W's games though.

(this group stage will last 18 weeks - sure you don't want to add Wednesday games in to halve the time?)

I think that's a good suggestion, I had went with 1 a week as I recall @cnerd123 highlighting a preference for that and not seeing many other opinions either way but looking back I see context was with smaller groups so will edit that to 2 games a week and have it start on 1st June as opposed to 28th May

 

[cnerd123]

Great work. Yea we should do two a week given the size of it. T20s more manageable twice a week too.

 

[JOJOXI]

Have amended the competition to 2 a week - the links to the signups have been edited to reflect that.

 

[ataraxia]

Signed up! Didn't realise that AX-W's games are in the evening lol, whatever, will catch some of it before bed.

 

[Jarquis]

Gonna be a long year for the Pirates

@JOJOXI the competitions are showing as entries closed.
I clicked in on 'manage competitions' but can't see a way to reopen them. Can you see anything at your end?

I think that he reset them up and restarted the competition... there is newer ones there!

 

[StephenZA]

I forgot the good old days of a new team dropping 8 catches in the match... well so far!

doh, silly me.
Have joined both comps!

 

[StephenZA]

I love when Davidson does this... just wish he would do it more often and consistently against non-robot teams!
