Same team and user name as BT, but I'm in Australia this time. Which was probably a bad idea as I have to start in div IV, but it'll be more interesting than playing in a country with five other users or whatever.

my team details are as follows

one day league: 5.9
20/20 league: 5.7

will post the squad soon.
 

EARLOBE

State 12th Man
EARLOBE
Male Models
Australia
OD League: 5.2
T20 League: 5.11
Youth League: 5.11


Figured I'd make a thread for this so I don't pollute the Battrick thread.

Got my first 20/20 game tonight, and just promoted a gun batsmen into my youth team. He was better than all of my senior squad too, so I promoted him to there too. He's capable bat, ordinary technique, but has dreadful stamina and power, so I put him on a fitness net.

He'd train faster in the senior squad right? That's how it was in Hattrick.

Edit - I just read the rules. Apparently they train slower until they're 20, then they train faster until they're 30.

Camacho btw is my best player, and is listed for 150k (current bid is 165k):

Asterix XI >> Earle Camacho >> Details
Player Details
Bats Left hand batsman Bowls Left arm Medium
Wage $1,802 Rating 28,605
Nationality West Indies Age 23
Form reasonable Fatigue rested
Experience poor Captaincy average
Batting average Bowling reasonable
Keeping ordinary Fielding poor
Technique poor Power ordinary
Endurance ordinary

Not sure if he's worth selling or not, considering he's my best bowler and one of my best batsmen, but 165k is a fair chunk of the 200k starting money. The training system makes it difficult to train allrounders anyway.

I had a bid on him at 150. He would be my best bowler and best batter.

And re: realistic scores. In one of my alpha games, it wasnt realistic at all. I needed like 18 off the last two overs. The second last went for 10 or something, so the target was realistic. Then the last over went . . . . . 1. I was so pissed off.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
I'm not gonig to do any trading yet. It is either something that will kill me in the long run, or make me quite strong in the financial department. I like my team, and I'm just going to play out a season, watching the training levels before I make sweeping changes.

Just looking at my team page, seems theres been a training update, and I've had a tonne of pops.
