Good luck in the next round! That wasn't exactly how I wanted my minutes to pan out, but you drilled me on tactics and GDP...

I should have known better than to expect to be facing a team today. Twice this season the Monkeys haven't turned up to play me. The last game of the season, heading into the playoffs, when minutes played is vital, and my opponent doesn't show up.

Coincidence that its happened both times he's been due to play me? Yeah sure. Potentially screwing my game shape, possibly affecting training for the week. Inconsiderate at best. Sabotage at worst.

Probably shouldn't post when I'm annoyed but I needed to say it.

You still get minutes allocated for training/gameshape and the enthusiasm boost from TIEing don't you?
I don't think anybody has ever conceded against me...

Look on the bright side, at least your best player didn't have a chance to get injured.

Starters automatically get 36 minutes. I'd have expected less with garbage time, which would have been a huge plus heading into the playoffs.

In fact, your bright side isn't that bright. In walkovers there's actually an increased risk of injury. The game still takes place, you can actually watch them, and because of the team being full of lucky fans, in fact, there's a vastly increased foul rate. Since injuries only happen on fouls, there's a corresponding increase in the chance of injury. So maybe I should consider myself lucky.

Sorry, I misunderstood your remark about the injury. Shame about Elliott, a man I obviously remember vividly. One of the best in this division, and that's a terrible time to lose him. I think we all fear that happening.

I did not know when I posted this that the Monkeys manager has been banned. (Probably incorrectly.) Given that I obviously retract the above.

Astra (Moomins) posted on the forums explaining that he was banned and saying goodbye. I can't find the thread now, it may have been deleted.

He and Johannes have been banned. We can't know why, but presumably because they share an ip. Its fairly clear they're different people. They have completely different personalities. There doesn't however seem to be anything we can do about it, as vouching for people doesn't seem to carry any weight.

That's a real shame, both very longstanding GMs who will be a loss.

Good luck in the Conf final, you will need it against my $110k of payroll....you might just beat me by 70.

I have no idea how I won my game, I couldn't have got my tactics more wrong and was massively outgunned without Elliott. Enthusiasm and effort must count for a lot. That and luck.

I was just looking at your game. Have to say I really didn't think you could win there when I looked early on. I think the enthusiasm and effort together must make a difference. I'd rather have taken you on with Elliott fit. I feel like I owe him one. ;)
