Re: e-sports league - Red Aces

Lastly, it may be that for some games we have less than 5 players available to play. Mrs_ColU didn't want to make the commitment necessary to join this league, however, I'm sure I could persuade her to play the odd game for someone else if necessary. This would mean that person having to trust her with their PokerRoom user id and password. Is this permissable? I'm posting this in the open so that GaF and others can see what I'm proposing. Obviously, if it is agreed that we can do this then it is also OK for every other team to do so as well.
I'm afraid it has to be a definite "no" mate :sad First off, it will be against the rules of the site - you cannot ever legitimately play on someone elses ID - though in reality if you live in the same house, no way to prove it either way (unless you post on an open forum :tongue2) However, it shouldn't be necessary either - not sure exactly how many in your team, but there shouldn't be many weeks when you cannot field 5 players are there? (Maybe struggling for Newastle meet up weekends, but other than that....)

Fair enough GaF. I will abide by what you say. :ok

Re: e-sports league - Red Aces I've had a go at a table to keep track of our points and when we are available. Will see whether this works, but if not we can try a 'poll' option instead. Will keep it up to date in Post 1. Hopefully got everyone's availability as posted so far. Y or n for definites, ? for 'available only if needed'. Obviously I don't expect everyone to give availability now for the duration, but if possible can you say for the next couple of weeks. If my understanding is correct, there is an individual prize in this as well as team? Therefore I think to be fair we should try to give everyone an equal number of games, rather than automatically keeping someone in the team just because they are scoring well. What do you think? If there are any weeks where we are short of numbers, I don't think we need to be afraid of putting in a sit out or somone who might arrive late. With the new points structure (and going by game 1) a sit out is likely to score points. So if available, GazB, TQM and PnB in for Weds. OK? Looking to get the team agreed on and registered Tues night so post up any more availability. :ok

[/quote'] You are the captain. You are putting in the time and effort to organise the team. I am content with whatever decision you come to regarding team selection. If I ever become incontent with your decisions I will either: 1. volunteer to take over the captaincy, or 2. shut up. ;) What I won't ever do is whinge. I've been a member of too many clubs where 10% of the membership do all the hard work of organising and running the club and 80% of the membership moan and groan and never lift a finger to help.

Excellent work as usual, Helen:notworthy Totally agree with the structure of sharing the games around evenly....we're equally as capable as each other of doing as well or as bad depending on that bugga called variance. :lol At the end of the day, even though there's money involved, it's a team game and hopefully a fun tourney with so many PL's involved. :clap:clap If this is going to be ongoing for years to come, then I want to enjoy playing in it! By the way tomorrow's probably looking like 80/20 in favour of me making the start time as my son's football mate was off school ill today so Training will probably not happen tomorrow but he won't know until he goes to school in the morning! :unsure I think it's right to get the teams sorted out tonight though, so pick another player and I'll make my debut on Sunday instead! :ok Good luck all!

Re: e-sports league - Red Aces Wednesday's team will be AvonGirl, Burnley Joe, ColU, GazBlades and Pistonbroke. Not that I need to give reasons ;), but my thinking is to play Joe as he will be away for 3 games shortly, and to give ColU a chance to improve. Me for the reason below...

TQM, is this based on an 8pm start? My understanding is that I can substitute players up to around 90 mins before the start, so if you find you are available let me know and I'll swap you in for me. Sunday's team was easier to pick than tomorrows as we have 3 unlikely starters. So we will play Burnley Joe, ColU, Hodgey, Pistonbroke and TQM. I'll input this team on Friday as I'll be away from Saturday morning. If anyone can't play either of these, post here as soon as possible. As I said before, if we do end up with a sit out one night, it will not be the end of the world, as we would likely get some points for it anyway. :ok Now, off to look at the other team's tactics....

I'm going to be out from 6:15 - 7:30 so I'd be back in time for 8pm start but I think you should stick with the 5 players already submitted......had a bugga of a day at work and will be heading for the fridge once my driving duties are complete!:beer:beer Good luck team 'RED ACES' TQM

Re: e-sports league - Red Aces 11th for me. I played crap. I won good money on Paddies this afternoon, I qualified for the HU eSport league yesterday, then I play for my team and I'm crap. :wall:wall:wall If I don't do a lot better on Sunday then you should drop me to the subs bench Helen and only bring me off it next time you are short.
