That makes sense. I hope the commentary gets back up soon, I don't have anything to do today.

Anybody signed up for the Blackout Rugby beta?

Looks pretty good so far. It's basically battrick except for rugby if you don't know what it is. It's more similar to hattrick though.

i signed up. caves_beachfc and it looks pretty cool. with 1st and youth sides. just hired all my staff etc. 1st game tomorrow!

 

[Adamc]

I signed up for that a while ago as well. Looks a lot more professional than BT, but as it's not a cricket game I doubt I'll enjoy it as much.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah I signed up well over a year ago, I just cbf with these things now. Starting them is too much work, once you're in and running you're right though.

[33/3from3.3]

Any more random acronyms i should know about?

 

[NZTailender]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me if you don't know what that acronym is.

 

[bugssy]

a message from battrick

No games
We are aware that FC games have not started today and hopefully the problem will be sorted out soon.

LOL.

Scorecards are up. Got a big shock from my game

Magical Ponies 4/457 (103.0)
Canning 201* (207), Terry 151* (206), Griffin 32 (43)

Gosford City 0/20 (7.0)

An unbeaten partnership of 337 between Canning and Terry, fair effort. Pity they'll both be buggered now though.

 

[EARLOBE]

I've got them at 3/427 which sucks since I'm playing my A team.

 

[chaminda_00]

End of Over 67 (2 runs, 1lb). Jaffna Jets: 266-8, runrate=3.97  
Bennet 16-1-67-2 
Muralitharan* 61 (96 balls) 
Jeithoon 1 (23 balls)
 
Last Wicket: Matharu b. Ireland 0 (FOW: 247/8)

All my main batsmen on VD scored runs, all my main batsmen on Def got out cheaply. Would have liked to score atleast 300 odd, but i guess it will be good to see what Jeithoon can do under pressure.

[U]Kipper XI v Bosco Cricket Club[/U]

[B]Kipper XI:[/B] 217

Dove 75
Brown 46*

Talia 5-50

[B]Bosco Cricket Club:[/B] 4-168

Carlton 66*
Nicholls 43

Vernon 2-52

Disappointing effort as far as batting goes, collectively the final 6 batsmen scored 22 runs, and at one point I was 2-131, so to lost 8 wickets for 86 runs was disappointing. Davies should be able to do some damage on day 2, and hopefully restrict them to less than 280

 

[oz_fan]

Fairly poor effort from my side. Bowling first we failed to dismiss the other side. They were 380-8 at the close of play. Carroll took 3 wickets and Grant 2. Hopefully we can get close to the other sides total, dismiss them quickly in the seconf innings and chase down a total.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah, had a shocker. Rested a lot of player though. Am currently 1/40 chasing 260 for first innings points. Bowled 100 overs for those 260 as well, so (N)

No first innings points in FC, just batting and bowling points.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah I know, was just a figure of speech.

 

[cricketboy29]

End of Over 93 (1 runs, 1b). Sad Decadent XI: 427-4, runrate=4.59
Malik 20-2-40-1
Islam* 138 (211 balls)
Gedye 223 (269 balls)

Was actually 108-4. Long time in for Gedye, hopefully his PFL won't take too much of a hit.
