Tour To Australia !! - News , Views , Results

Well these flukes keep happening over and over and over again.

Realism issues. Lord, Marc and I tested the DB and ITC itself rather thoroughly before the series and now in tests playing against Australia, the CW XI is consistently flogging them.

Unsure as to the reason for this, since the Australians have far superior stats. However, I just simmed a Test and set LE and Mr P to bowl on full aggression. Australia made 117 all out and 100 all out. CW XI made 355 all out. The next Test I simmed, Australia made 84 all out and Mr Ponting took 9/36 from 12 overs - how realistic! To add to the realism, Eclipse then crashed 220 not out off 300odd balls as we amassed well over 450 runs for our 10 wickets.

WOOHOO!!

Go me and my overly brilliant bowling!

In what way?? In Syedur Rahman's Australia would pile up 450 to 600 and then knock us over for 300 in each innings! How is that more accurate than ITC? I admit that generally ITC is more accurate, but at the moment it's not.

Testing is ongoing Liam - will speak to you later, but think I have isolated the problem, just need to confirm that...

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Breaking News!

Lead researcher and analyst Marc Robbins has seemingly discovered the error in the ITC sim. As such, team training is no longer suspended and the tour will begin after all is discussed between the CWBCC members.

Lord, if I don't see you online tonight, I'll email you.

*** honoured to have such a title ***

Will the board be quite so pleased after I submit my expenses claim?

BTW Lord, since I also know the outcome, you can always talk to me if Liam is too stoned.

1. It's the most polite one I could think of.
2. All payments come out of Lord's Bahamian bank account.
3. Argh. Another one bites the dust...

 

[lord_of_darkness]

*feels we've been left stranded by the CWBCC and forgotten about*

 

[Mr. P]

Yeah and you guys have ruined Neils diary.:!(

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

The intention is for the first Test to be played on Monday. Fear not, we have not forgotten.

 

[Blewy]

Cool will it be live??

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Well the games will be simmed Player v Player, so I will be controlling the Aussie tactics via MSN. In that way, Reuben and I will have to arrange a time for both of us to be online. When this time is arranged, we'll let you guys know and whoever wishes to join can... I guess.

 

[lord_of_darkness]

It's best that it is delayed Reuben, because I think that further testing of accuracy should be done. I was doing some Dev League testing and have come to the realization that I will have to run this season on Syedur Rahman's due to the bowlers being heavily favoured.

**Cloete awaits patiently to amass some runs against the best team in the world and finally prove his worth... although he may have already**

 

[Mr. P]

Um guys? Any tour news? Updates? Start times?
