That was more painless than I thought it would be. If the group had more than one of a particular race I put one in each group. If not I tried to balance it by TR. It aint perfect but at least we can play some games!!!

I will post round deadlines soon. Notice the New teams will play an additional match due to numbers, and I thought that would be an equalizer to get them up to speed. Next season they will be playing teams with many more matches played. Twisted Evil

Get to playing folks, Northern Wastes League Season 3 has begun!!!!

The first match of the season had the Hugh's Town Astrals defeated 2-0 by the NewOrk Giants in front of 59000 generally well-behaved fans.

In the first half, the Astrals received the kick, did fairly well making a hole in the Giants defense, and were set to score, but Christoph Burg couldn't connect with Wilhelm Taver with what should have been an easy touchdown. Elsewhere, Flexico Duress nearly killed Morgan Hensburg with a brutal hit. The Giants recovered the ball off Burg's failed throw, and marched it downfield. Luck 'Petite' Gout smashed his hand on Adam Everheart's helmet, but otherwise the Giants had little trouble, as Jay Feelers carried in the first TD of the season.

In the 2nd half, the beleagured Astrals tried to defend, and at one point managed to knock out Eli Maiming and spring the ball loose, but after collecting the ball, Wilhelm Taver couldn't get it away from the Giants. The Giants recovered it and began moving downfield again. Craig Viggio strained his back trying to take down Jeremy Shocker, and Flexico Duress brought in the second TD.

Setting up with seconds left, Tricky Barber was hit by a rock just before the clock ran out.

According to the schedule GameAvatar didn't even have a game due till 10/25! He's one of the original NWL coaches and I certainly hope there was more reason for kicking him than just that he hasn't logged on for 9 days! This action seems very drastic and I'd like to hear a better explanation.

i will second that, GameAvatar was one of the original coaches for the NWL, and goes back to previous Celas run leagues such as the MNF that many coaches continued on in the NWL. i hope we can resolve this matter happily for all!

it was drastic and probably too harsh. It will be resolved when he logs back on.

Wink

This is small potatoes compared to some of the other crap that is going on in the NWL, and my action was probably reactionary, tho booting him now would allow him to pe replaced before the schedule gets any more screwed up. But if you guys vouch for him consider the decision reversed if RL hasn't bushwahacked him somehow.

What say you guys to what else is happening in NWL?

Im currently waiting on meech to set a date/time for our second round game.

Been waiting about a week - we had it down to almost a day but no set time or date atm.

FYI, I have modified the Premiere TR Cap from No Cap to a 235 TR Cap. That won't have an impact this season, but I wanted it in place for next season.

Remember, long term leagues will require off-field team management. I don't want anyone whining that they have to cut their star mummy because they didn't make the cap. hehehe actually I do want that... Wink

PS - I would rather you complained about an opponent to me via PM, we are a band of brothers here so criticize in private, praise in public.
