yes, i'm guessing he just trains his game shape as well. A team like that won't last long though. hehe, i'll see how it goes, good luck for the rest of the season, and see you in the conference final (i hope).

yeah, it just sucks that he's, in all likelihood, going to promote this season and then we're going to have to battle it out next season ourselves, so one of us is going to have to wait 2 full seasons before going to D.IV.

Good luck to you too! Let's demolish the rest of the Big 8 while we can

well i know a guy in d3, he said it is possible for 3 teams to be promoted, (in d5), but it would be the 2 teams that win their conference + whoevers wins the championship besides those 2. So one of us probably could, if one of us wins our conference we have a chance. Lots of complicated stuff.

Let's just have fun this season, and get as many wins as we can...

Hey all, new here... kind of.

I've dabbled at this game a couple of times but never lasted more than a season and a half. I am hoping to keep active this time. I haven't decided what my strategy will be yet. Just spent some beginner money on renovations for my arena thinking long term. Might take things slow and tank this year in hope of getting a solid trainee for next season and the future. If I can find a few solid players and good prospects in the market I might try and make a push for the playoffs but it might be getting too late in the season for having a realistic shot.

You guys are right about DeKalb. All of his players are in their mid to upper 30s and taking huge salaries for a team at this level. He will be in bad shape in the near future as I doubt he has much cash reserves.

Good luck the rest of the season and I hope to join you in being competitive soon.

Welcome JG :)

Nice to see old-timer's coming back. This is actually my third run as well, with my last one getting to DII before getting bored of the game.

I feel like our league specifically gets SOO many new players, it's quiet ridiculous. It's nice to have some competition your first season, but the last two times I played, DV was a walkthrough where you learned how to play quickly and accumulated some money before being guaranteed an advancement.

Good luck sticking around this time JG and much success (except when you're playing me)! ;)

Thanks APG I appreciate the kind words.

I doubt I'll make very much noise this season. It looks like you and Barca will be battling it out to get to the championship. I look forward to following that battle the rest of this season. Maybe I'll get a shot at one of you guys in the championship next year!

Cheers.

Yes, i especially look forward to the next time I'm playing Allied Precise Gunmen.

Well i already met JG10 in chat, have fun both of you, and good luck in the season, especially vs Dekalb.

Yeah Barca, our next game should be interesting for sure.

Both of you had really interesting games last night.

Iowa, just wow. I don't think I'll ever see a 4 OT game again. Like, wow. Must have been really really exciting if you were watching it live - it's a shame that you came out on the bottom of that. It could have easily gone either way.

Barca, very good effort against Dekalb. You managed to get it within 15, which is so much better than anybody else has done. AND you did it with your second-highest salaried player injured after just 14 minutes. Way to go man! He'll have home-court advantage if you meet in the finals, but I feel like if you met him in the finals, you'd be able to put up a good fight (especially if you decided to buy better players).

Yes, last night was entertaining but a bummer. Not only did I end up losing but some of my players gathered too many minutes. Having just acquired most of my players, their game shape is terrible and I'm hoping that is the reason I came out with the loss. I had a better FG%, out rebounded them by 24, and had 7 more assists. They hit a 3 with 7 seconds to go in regulation to tie it up and send it into overtime. Then it ended with him making a buzzerbeater at the end of the 4th OT to take the win.

Looks like you played well burninator. You have moved past Barca to take over the lead in your conference, congrats! The two of you will be battling it out the rest of the season and playoffs. It is gonna make for an entertaining finish to see who will get a stab at Dekalb in the championship.

Barca, you had some unfortunate luck last night as well, not only did one of your better players get injured, but your trainee fouled out early in the game. If my math skills are correct, he now only has 47 minutes this week and won't receive full training. Good news is at least your injury only lasted for that game.

Good luck the rest of the way to both of you and hopefully one can pull off the upset in the championship.

Edit: BTW, I just looked at last season's results for our league. According to that, the top 3 teams in both conferences were promoted. So it looks like both of you may be promoted after this season!

I'm dont need to buy anyone right now tbh APG. As long as i have a good run, seeing what happened last season with 3 teams getting promoted, I think i could afford to lose 4 games and still get promoted. I'm gonna focus on building my arena and preparing for division 4. Maybe find another trainee next season too, Simpson's not bad, but i could probably find better.

eyy, and Dincer Ariman + Williard Paquette made the all star team bench from my team... woo lol.

This Tuesday, Allied Precise Gunmen meets Trinidad and Tobago Iguanas at Karachi Stadium.
Number 1 meets Number 2.
Winner takes the conference.
Be there.

All are invited to come watch this game, it will be interesting, it will be dramatic, and it will be ENTERTAINING. The conference is on the line here, and after an embarrassing 2nd half failure in the 1st meeting, TTI are determined to do better.

Who will win? Who will prevail?
Is this a preview of the conference finals?

Can anyone beat Dekalb?
Will Iowa cause a huge upset, after an amazing 2nd half of the season?

What's YOUR opinion?

League V.2 has been full of twists and turns this season, stay tuned for more.
