For starters, regardless of any non submittals, matches are simmed for statistical purposes. There is no option for "This team didn't submit so make them lose" :p

Secondly, I was doing forfeits for the first part of the season until Simon and I agreed that we would stop for some reason. So redirect whinging at him if you like :p
Ahh, I see. Just to make it easier for you, here's the One Day rounds and Tamil Nadu's results :p :D

Round 1 - Loss
Round 2 - Loss
Round 3 - Win
Round 4 - Loss
Round 5 - Loss
Round 6 - Win
Round 7 - Win

If the 2nd XI team manager doesn't submit a team, then what we should do is make a crap team for them and use that for the that respective week.. This way it just ain't fair..

Thats what we're doing now. Any team not-submitted will be picked at my discretion and I will always try and field all rookies.

Well if thats the case, 1st XI manager should also take some responsibility then, if the Manager wants to succeed then he/she has to..

There are instances when i being the 2nd XI manager have posted behalf of my 1st XI manager, this is just so we keep the good record going.. so i guess it should work vice versa..

1st XI managers get a strike for each match not-submitted. If they have no recognised 2nd XI manager then they get it for that as well. However, if they do have a 2nd XI manager and their 2nd's manager doesn't submit a team they don't get a strike. But I can't deny the fact that managers need good communication for submitting teams and that it's annoying if you submit your 2nd XI team but your opponent doesn't and you lose even though they shouldn't get the points.

if I may pass the buck, Jamee is in charge of managers and controlling strikes etc so if he could correct me on anything here that'd be great. Also would be nice for Simon to explain why forfeits don't count in 2nd XI OD. :p

Jamee didn't award non-submitted 2nd XI teams a forfeit. :p

To be honest, when I started simming 2nd XI games I awarded forfeits without consulting anyone as any non-submittals in Season 6 meant a forfeit, so I thought it'd be the same for the 2nd XI matches. It seems not. :mellow:

Haha Geg, no worries... but hey, it's 2 wins that we could really use :p

Yeah, a few people are in the same boat when losing to a side that didn't submit...


Look on the bright side; you'll get a better draft pick :laugh: :laugh:

No, I'm the one who didn't submit - and yes, I do want a better draft pick, which is why I'm trying to see justice done (ie; wins awarded where they should've been).

For OD matches where you didn't submit and neither did Cloete, the opposing team were awarded forfeit points. I only started not counting forfeits last round, when we didn't have any, or maybe 1, IIRC.

But why's that? It's unfair, why should teams who failed to submit in the past few weeks get off scott-free whereas teams who did it a couple of rounds ago are penalised?

See, I dunno. I was approached by Simon to change it so he must have a good reason.

Probably because it wasn't being counted in FC 2nd XI and was just too much for poor Jamee to process.

For justice to be done then teams that don't submitt teams should be rewards with points which help them get better draft picks. If a 2nd XI manager submitt a side every week, they should be the ones rewarded not the ones that don't submitt sides. Its simple if your 2nd XI manager doesn't submitt a side, then your one that should submitt and if you don't then it should effect your draft picks.

Greg you fool. This was discussed at the board meeting. 2nd XI positions count in reverse. So 1st in 2nd XI Div 1 FC and OD and 1st in 1sts Div 1 FC and OD means a pick right in the middle basically.

So its better to come last in the 2nd XI?

no, doing well in the 2nd XI will help ur draft pick...
so why are people allowed to win games when they don't submitt sides, isn't doing well including submitting sides.
