Lost to Dwyer in the league. Will try out the bowling attack I used against Saggers Mob on Sunday and see if it does better.
Diddums.Challenged Clapo but he didn't accept.
this is my lowest score in a long time.......End of over 23 (3 runs) - caves_beachcc(114-7) RR 4.96
French 38 (51b) , Matthews 3 (4b) , van der Straaten 2-0-6-1
Playing basically five specialist bowlers and dropped my all rounders. So we don't have a long batting line up, i guess.
Results:OK, although there weren't actually many people who didn't play a game last week I think it'll be best if I just put up fixtures as people seem to find this system confusing.
The only match this week which affected the table was Saggers Mob (10) beating Jaffna Jets (8). All other matches involved the higher seed winning, and two matches were disallowed as they weren't within the challenge rules (3 places above). Added Jamee's 999ers, DCC_legend's team (not sure what it's called), Alternative XI and BEST Indies (headhunter) to the table. Two teams that didn't play a match dropped places.
1. The Winners
2. caves_beachcc
3. Male Models
4. Asterix XI
5. Zero Pillars and Hero Fillers
6. Dynamo Morpork
7. Saggers Mob
8. Wheelabarrowback
9.Jaffna Jets
10.Central Districts
11.Otago
12.Jamee's 999ers
13.DCC_Legend
14.Alternative XI
15.BEST Indies

Basically the fixtures will be on a two week cycle. The first week will be 2v1, 5v3, 6v4, 9v7, 10v8, 13v11, 14v12, 16v15. The second week will be 1v3, 4v2, 7v5, 8v6, 11v9, 12v10, 15v13, 14v16. Same deal applies, if you beat someone you take their place and vice versa. The draw can be amended easily to accomodate more teams if necessary.
Rules:
- home team must challenge by Saturday 00:00 FTP time
- failure to challenge = forfeit (if you've already made a challenge and are worried about it not being accepted, mention in this thread that you've already made the challenge)
- failure to accept = forfeit (assuming the challenge was made on time)
- the match can be scheduled for either Thursday or Sunday
- Senior OD matches unless by mutual agreement, i.e. the away team has the right to refuse other challenges
The limitation of this system is that it means you can only move up/down two places per week - however, if teams play their matches on Thursday and schedule another match for Sunday I'll allow those matches to count as well. The second match can be against whoever, but both teams have to agree to it counting towards the table.
Fixtures for this week therefore (home team listed first):
caves_beachcc v The Winners
Zero Pillars and Hero Fillers v Male Models
Dynamo Morpork v Asterix XI
Jaffna Jets v Saggers Mob
Central Districts v Wheelabarrowback
DCC_Legend's team v Otago
Alternative XI v Jamee's 999ers
BEST Indies - bye, unless someone fills the 16th spot soon
Hopefully that's simple enough.
