CW Battrick Cup (season 13)

[nibbs]

dude, if you're already playing in another cup, it kinda defeats the purpose of signing up for this one


with killers effectively stratched, we should probably work towards a 12 team comp, 4 groups of 3. top 2 advancing to the quarters. boom.

Is signed up for this first, but there was no new posts for agggges, so I just signed up for another one.

 

[nibbs]

well, it was only 4 days.

either way, chaminda, or mahindinho set up the seedings and groups. i don't mind helping with the tables once games get underway.

Agreed. The other possibility is 3 groups of 4, but this way allows a bit greater flexibility.

I think we've only got six more friendly dates this season -- last league fixture is 11/9, so add one that week, and one after.

We'll have 4 groups of 3, STARTING THIS SUNDAY. I _think_ we'll have an extra week at the end of it all for contingency, but am not sure. We can still have a group of 4 if Killers really want in, but they'd have to commit to the dates below. Sorry, Jakester.

SO DON'T ACCEPT ANY FRIENDLIES! If you have sorted a friendly this week, that should be alright, but please say so now.

Schedule will be:

16/8: Group Match 1 (A vs B) *
23/8: Group Match 2 (A vs C)
30/8: Group Match 3 (B vs C)
6/9: QFs
13/9: SFs
20/9: Final

* C doesn't play during the first week. Hopefully that'll allow us to include whoever's booked a friendly already!

Apologies for being a numpty and not getting this sorted until now.

So, I've drawn up the teams, ranked them, and come up with some seedings. Central Districts and Magical Ponies were the closest split, with the former shading it thanks to a previous RU spot in the CW Cup.

"CW Rating" is taken from the Ratings thread. For Killers and Dee Crew, I've taken the best rating from their last 4 league matches.

"Quotient" is how well a team has done in the CW Cup before -- 20pts for an outright win, 15 for being runners-up, 10 for a SF spot and 5 for each QF appearance. Raw numebrs taken from Nibbs's table towards the end of the CW Cup Season 11 thread.

"Sum" is just that -- Rating + Quotient.

For the groups, I took each seeded tier and rolled a die -- when I rolled 1-4, that corresponded to groups A-D. If 5, 6 or a previously rolled number, I re-rolled.

Lastly, "Code" is the team's ID for the group stages.
Game 1 will be X1 vs X2
Game 2 will be X1 vs X3
Game 3 will be X2 vs X3
(could change if people already have friendlies booked)

LOWER SEEDED TEAMS AT HOME, to even it out a bit!

Home team (ALWAYS the lower ranked) challenges. We'll say that challenges must be made by midnight Thursday (BT-England time) for this round, then Wednesday for subsequent ones.

All the "3" teams please wait on standby -- if any of the above teams can't play this Sunday, the other two in the group can play instead.

If Jakester can play, Killers will be B4, and first match will be this Sunday against Coco's Nuts.

 

[Mahindinho]

Phew! Right, I've got to go home. Won't be online until tomorrow, so hope that's enough to go on, and acceptable to all those involved.

Again, sorry I've left it so late. Meant to sort it all out on Sunday, but I seem to have found myself a girlfriend and spent just about the whole weekend with her instead. Which was nice, but not very useful!

 

[Jakester1288]

Sorry guys, I'll try to be in this next season, but the PC Cup is already underway, and up to the second week already, and I won my first game by forfeit. This week, I've got to verse some elites though, and the teams in my league are all much better than me. It seems the same here.

 

[DCC_legend]

Cool, glad to see this up and running. Doubt I'll get very far, my team's pretty crap tbh. Good to be in the cup though.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Will challenge Tozz now.

 

[chaminda_00]

Any chance you can put team id no, for the fixtures list. BT search function is useless with words.

Accepted.

I've updated this post with the team Ids, and also reversed this week's fixtures.

AndyC, I've rejected your challenge and re-challenged you, at your place rather than mine. I'm so going to lose!

 

[Matteh]

Someone give me a shout if i forget about this, don't check this area particularly much.

Doesn't appear i have anything to do for a week anyway.
