They sent mine over today (Ozgameshop), and assuming you guys pre-ordered as I did, you should be checking for either a neat lil parcel at your doorstep or perhaps a post slip in your mailbox.

Happy Days

Nice. Good to see yours arrived today. Hopefully mine comes tomorrow.

Did you get the special edition or the normal one?

For this, we could always do what a bunch of us did with Fifa 09 on these forums. Basically we all just play each other whenever, whoever you see online, etc. Doesn't have to be in any particular order. Then you post the results in here, and it all goes into one big ladder. So rather than a league, we just keep track of whose doing best, etc.

i'll take PSG

if theres 10 of us and were playing a league then there would be either 9 or 18 games each.
i think it would be best if we knock off 3 games each time we organise to play. i think the best times would be around 6pm to 7pm and the best days would be friday, saturday and sundays

what do you'se prefer, 10 teams in a round-robin tournament: totaling 9 or 18 games each

or a shorter tournament of 16 teams and have a group stage, quater final, semi final and final?: totaling 3 to 6 games each

I'll go with Borussia Dortmund

Round robin. If we have semis etc. people might have to wait for ages for their opponent to come online, and if they cant use their PS3 then the comp will come to a halt.

PS3 League teams

Busby - Man United
Funky - Celtic
Avy - Arsenal
Bloop- Borussia Dortmund
Williamn - PSG
Heartinator - Chelsea
Tiny - Napoli
Marconi - City
samb- Liverpool
Felix - Roma

That does it for the teams. If anyone does want to change before we start thats cool.

I will look at seeing what an online league looks like and if it looks to complicated, I think what Funky said, everyone play each other, post scores here and keep a ladder. I think play everyone twice (18 games) then have a finals series.

Top 4 - 1v2 (winner through to the final, loser players winner of 3v4)?

Or top 5 - (A-League style)?

Remember post your PSN here so everyone can add each other. So far I have Felix (Marci_17), Avy (PureAvgas), Tiny (tiny455), davidbloop (davidbloop) and just adding Funky now (OwlerH)

post deleted. you beat me to it.

I will be free to play some people tonight after my missus finishes watching masterchef.


Don't expect to win many coz I'm tired as hell and seem to play terribly when tired, but I'm def keen for a match or two (or three) tonight.

ok add me:

will_parra

so is it play as many as you can asap or will it be separated into rounds to minimise confusion.

I rkn we should just play whoever we can when we get the chance, but only play a single person once in that night (that counts towards the league anyway)

I also think it'd be a good idea if we used either the we are football fans chat or a messenger system so we can chat during the games with each other.

Imnofreak ^ In case we would want to create a 360 league, can anyone willing to play register their interest here. I think we should probably get 5+?

Headphones!

yeah ps3 headsets

I just created a league. If people want to join it and see what the format is like thats cool.

If not, just play each other when we can. And I will put together a table etc

please post here before and after you vs

Ok, I think we will settle on this.

Once everyone has added everyone. You can play as many games as you like but both decide one a competitive game and post the score of that one match.

Each team will play each other twice.

Try and play everyone once in a competitive game before you start having your 2nd round of matches.

Top 5 make the finals. 1st place goes straight through to major semi final.

Also, no bitching about not having as strong a team as your opponent, it was your pick and they are plenty of 5 star teams that have not been picked. If you want to change, you have until everyone has added each other.

Your next post in this thread, post who is on your friends list and who you still need to add.

I need marconi and heartinator's PSN.

ok so just confirming on the finals, correct me if i'm wrong.

Round 1:
1st place gets a bye
2nd vs 5th in a one-off match
3rd vs 4th in a one-off match

Round 2:
Two winners vs each other in a one-off match

Round 3:
Grand final in a one-off match between 1st place team and round 2 winner

Edited by williamn: 10/10/2011 10:40:01 PM

Why not go like this

Round 1:
1st Place bye
Match 1: 2nd vs 3rd - Loser to play winner of 4th v 5th, winner to play 1st place.
Match 2: 4th v 5th - winner plays loser of 2 v 3 and loser is eliminated

Round 2:
Match 3: 1st v Winner Match 1
Match 4: Loser Match 1 v Winner Match 2

Round 3:
Match 5: Loser Match 3 v Winner Match 4

Grand Final:
Winner Match 3 v Winner Match 5

Maybe I don't have a headset :P

alright well, for anyone that has a laptop that wants to chat while playing, if you start playing a match with someone feel free to use this:

Ill join this arvo, i have to leave soon.

Don't worry about joining the league. We will just play when we can and put together a table.

The finals will be as SydCro said. That is the way I have always known the top 5 to be.

Be fucked it actually showed up yesterday. Didnt have a lot of time to play but this is how ive faired so far on world class with Sydney
0-1 Adelaide
0-0 Heart
2-1 Perth
2-2 Newcastle
0-1 Brisbane

So far not too bad. I didnt like the camera angle when i played newcastle it was a bit close to the action but i got by. Just having trouble scoring goals at the moment but i suppose that will come. Defending though hasnt posed me too many issues at all.

First transfer season i had to make plenty of signings as i only had the one left back and not a single left winger added centre back depth as well as an additional striker and picked up werhman and paston on frees. Already have reddy whinging at me that he wants more game time. I fucked Necevski of to victory as well. Jokes on them

I thought scoring goals was a little easier
