Gentlemen, it begins.

I've come up from a bot league, feel free to pound my team week in week out.

I'm just looking at the game seriously after going through the motions for three seasons. If you want to school me, I'm listening.

Good luck, have fun, and post heaps!

Welcome and good luck mate. Likely be a few bots here in division III as well. Not many really chat on this league forum though it would be nice to change that. Anyways, questions just ask mate. I usually log in everyday so I'll get back to you promptly.

Indeed. Got bored with it very quickly. This is the one sim I've stuck with and really enjoy it. I played FromthepavilionIcricket sim) for some time to and enjoyed it but a list of revised rules spoilt it for me. Been playing this since late 2011.

I'm a Battrick tragic. There's no way off that train.

Buzzerbeater I'm just looking at taking seriously now. I've just bought some older dudes to be competitive, still training my younger ones (though I'll admit I'm probably not doing that the best way I can) and hopefully will finish above any demotion playoffs.

Happy days.

I will gladly pound thine ass. J/k

I probably won't be in play to dominate this season, going to work more on training as opposed to stacking the roster.

Is training something you guys target maybe 2-4 players over your roster, or do you spread it around?

I'm trying to do a couple of weeks at different skills to get benefits to all my players, but am I selling some of them a bit short this way?

Check some of the forums on training mate very useful but here is a few tips :
1) I wouldn't buy anymore players.
2) Invest in your arena, I can see you're already making an expansion wwhich is good news.
3) Generally speaking players need 48 mins at a training position to get optimun effect.
4) Since you play a scrimage/cup and 2 regular season games thats either 3 players trained in single position(fastest training) or 6 players at dual position training(moderate speed).
5) Save money and try to get a positive balance every week.
6) Ask questions.
7) And believe me, this game is a marathon not a sprint so take your time and have patience, most of all enjoy.

Minus my aging star centre I'll be the squad I currently have through to seasons end likely. Shame my SF got injured for the finals last season as he likely made the difference(not that the side would of survived div II without a big purchase or two) in the end. Happy with my single signing and rapt with 2 of my draftee's, espiecially since I didn't spend any points lol.

Talk about making the difference... I was literally one shot away from the finals. My guy missed a shot at the buzzer, went to overtime and lost it there. Also, I tried to pick a game day prep tactic which was wrong and I'm guess if I had gotten it right or not chosen a prep tactic at all, I would've been in that finals.

I don't see myself changing my roster at all this season, just training.
