We are free today is anyone else?

[Renegade]

I know Nimac is available today, but it's a problem for me. Tomorrow would be better, in the evening after about 8pm.

[Renegade]

Important Notice

Rules have been updated in the FIFA08: Be A Pro Rules thread. It is your duty to read and understand the new rules before commencing your games.

[DeciMaTe]

we are ready to play 2 moz from 3:30pm - 10:00pm

[nimac]

Guys,
I am available most evenings after 2200, this is the time that suits me best because being the family man I am, I unfortunately have a few other priorities before then. So if anyone is available around that mark and Renegade is free we will play our fixtures. If anyone wants to propose any times I'm sure Renegade and I will do our best to accomodate.
It's a good job this wasn't 5v5.....could you have imagined trying to co-ordinate that one :)

[Renegade]

I was thinking that myself - it's hard enough trying to run a 2v2 as my first event, a 5v5 would have been a logistical nightmare!

To fit with Nimac, I am available around 22:00 GMT every night of the week apart from tomorrow. Shall we say Thursday at 22:00 anybody?

[Katalyst]

Hey Guys,

Add iSu Absolution to arrange matches, I think iSu Killswitch has a full friends list.

Cheers.

[Renegade]

Ok no problem. Are you available to play Thursday night at 10 GMT?

[Katalyst]

I'm not actually playing in it, I'm just posting as I know they are lazy *******s. I'll let you know if they are; from what I know of their playing patterns I expect they will be.

[Renegade]

Ok, let us know as soon as you can.

[Katalyst]

They've said they can play, so just add iSu Absolution to kick it off (pardon the pun).

[Renegade]

Added. Myself and Nimac will be online tomorrow at 10pm GMT.

Thanks for getting in touch with them Katalyst :cool:

[DeciMaTe]

add me VVV Proshot or VVV Dynamo or VVV Rossi to arange a match. we can play anytime.

[Renegade]

I would rather do the arranging here Tomz - if it comes down to it the only place we can prove arrangements is if they're posted on the forums.

If you can do Thursday at around 11pm GMT I'm sure Nimac would be available, but he will have to confirm.

[nimac]

Thursday 2300 should suit me and late Friday. I'm pretty flexible tonight Ren if you are about?

[Renegade]

Sorry mate wasn't around tonight.

So we will play iSu FC at 10:00pm tomorrow, and will be online to play team VVV at 11:00pm tomorrow.

Pick That Out FC - we need some times guys!

[jack989]

PTO I JaKo I FC And TeA I Caddy are available for matches anytime at night just add PTO I JaKo I FC and send a message saying what time.or post on here saying what time.

[Renegade]

OK well if we have time after our 11pm game tonight it will be then - if not it will be around 10pm on Monday, that OK?

[nimac]

Ren,
I'll be on from 2200 so we can get some of these games played.
N.

[Renegade]

Cool, cheers for the update. I've PM'd you my mobile number so we can keep in contact.

[jack989]

Can you please change TeA I Caddy to PTO I Lear I FC

[Renegade]

Great - as soon as we arrange our matches, Be A Pro mode is completely down. You can't create sessions, can't join sessions, can't play quick matches - nothing.

1-0 up we were too and it kicked Killswitch out. We need to re-arrange our matches.

*jack - you have been added mate.

[DeciMaTe]

we are avalible at any time today, i can comfirm that we can play u nimac at 11:00pm today

[nimac]

That might suit me but I don't think Renegade is free tonight.

[Renegade]

Nope, not available tonight at all.

Tomorrow, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 10 is fine with me.

[Renegade]

OK the servers are back up - I can do tonight and tomorrow at 10, I think Nimac is available too.

*edit* Just spoken to him - 10pm is fine.

[Renegade]

Fixture: Renegay & BigMac vs iSu FC
Winner: iSu FC
Game 1 Result: 2-3
Game 2 Result: 0-2
Aggregate Score: 2-5

Good game iSu. Don't think we deserved to lose that badly but never mind - you guys played well and exploited the things you knew would get results, fair play to you.

Anyone still to play their games, be warned - the servers are utterly shot! It's lag lag and more lag I'm afraid!

[villafan306]

Yeah, to be fair you guys played a good game and the result didn't reflect the game.

Servers are pretty poor.

And to anyone we haven't played, tomorrow from 9pm is ok with us.

[Renegade]

Same for us, 10pm onwards tomorrow is fine :)

[DeciMaTe]

renagade can i confirm a match between 10:00 - 10:30 on friday. we are avlible today from 3:30 - 10:00

[Renegade]

I can't do Friday mate - XL is this weekend!

If Nimac is available before ten then yes we will play - I will text him and make sure but I can't confirm anything until I've spoken to him.

[nimac]

How does after 2000 tonight suit D, maybe 2100 or 2200?

[Renegade]

It's all good for me, I'm free all night.

[nimac]

It's all good for me, I'm free all night.

Good stuff, maybe get a couple of warm up games in first...what happened u last night Scott?

"'I am just going for 5 minutes, and I may be some time'"

[NeoKubrick]

[nimac]

VVV.....Guys, I can't do late tonight...other plans :)

[villafan306]

Any night after 9pm is good for us.

[Renegade]

OK, VVV we are on for 7:30 tonight as agreed on XBL.

[Renegade]

Fixture: Renegay & BigMac vs Team VVV
Winner: Team VVV
Game 1 Result: 1-2
Game 2 Result: 2-2
Aggregate Score: 3-4

Unlucky, good game and don't think we deserved to lose - but never mind, you guys played well and best of luck.

[Rossi]

ye well played

[DeciMaTe]

we are free to day, anyone up for a match ?

[nimac]

you'll probably find quite a few are at XL this weekend, we won 't be able to play as my partner in crime Renegade is there so it'll be next week for us mate.

[villafan306]

I think our game with VVV is tonight, we haven't actually confirmed it yet though.

[Renegade]

OK. Try and confirm it, and post it here for accuracy if it comes down to random draws.

[villafan306]

Just to make a note too, not sure if it is currently being updated but it says VVV have won one but have no points on the group table...

[villafan306]

Is the cut off points for games still Wednesday? Because we want to play the VVV/iSu game Friday if possible.

[Renegade]

The deadline is still Wednesday night at midnight. That should have been enough time for all teams to have arranged and played fixtures. Any remaining fixtures will be decided on effort and commitment to arranging and playing the fixture, followed by a random draw if no decision can be reached.

[Rossi]

ye we was supposed to play iSu yesterday but it never happend

[Renegade]

Well you guys have the next ten minutes to get something sorted! How close are you guys to getting your fixture played?

[Renegade]

Any update guys? If you can sort out a definite time to play your fixture, I will possibly grant an extension to make sure that games are played where there has been clear effort to do so.

[Rossi]

i heard that we are playing a game friday

[villafan306]

yeah friday is the arrangement me and proshot came to.

[Renegade]

Is there any chance you guys can play your match tonight?

[Rossi]

i could play till 10

[Renegade]

OK, well if you can try and get it sorted with iSu then go for it. If not, tomorrow night will have to do.

[Rossi]

not all members are on so prob be tomorrow

[Renegade]

OK. No later than tomorrow night please guys.

[Rossi]

Hope So Cause I Looking Forward To It

[villafan306]

Tonight after 9 is fine with me.

[Rossi]

kk i will ask proshot

[Renegade]

Right, any update on this fixture guys?

If it hasn't been played yet the deadline has long since passed - having checked through the thread it will be a random draw between iSu and VVV for the winner of that game, unless you have played it and not reported back.

The matches between Pick That Out vs Renegay and Big Mac, iSu and VVV have been called as default losses for Pick That Out. It's been clear that all players have tried hard to get all fixtures played - and I personally have sent emails and PMs to the registrant of Pick That Out, not to mention Xbox Live messages, none of which have been responded to.
