The other 14 players were randomly distributed, so it's complete luck that Mohammad Nabi has ended up on Afghanistan.


You can now send me your four starting players via PM, and on what territory you want them to start on.

I'll give you 48 hours to do so, which should give the teams with two managers enough time to communicate with each other. It would however be good if you can get them in ASAP, so I know what players I need to create in the sim.


Make sure you've read the two information posts:

Players

Gameplay


Your PM should look like this:

New Zealand

Eastern Australia - Gareth Hopkins
Indonesia - Brendon McCullum
New Guinea - Peter McGlashan
Western Australia - Reece Young

Of course if you've read those two information posts, you'll know why none of the four players above will be taking part, hence why I've used them as an example.​

 

[Chewie]

Brendon McCullum has bowled before so we could play him

 

[CG123]

Well yeah, you can technically play anyone, but you get my point....

 

[Iridium]

I thought they had actually chosen those players for real.... until I read the bit below it.

 

[Chewie]

We're not that stupid. But looking at the map, we may have been pretty idiotic with our selection of territories...

Lol, you only have one way of getting out.

 

[Chewie]

I'm thinking now that we should have just left one territory open, and taken one in America/Europe. We could have got the last one in the first turn, and taken another in America/Europe.

 

[CG123]

Everyone's received, except Australia and England.

 

[CG123]

All perfect except for the link that you provided which remains a bit out-dated . Pakistan have 4 players in there if am right .

Yeah, they're just neutral like the other ten players.

 

[CG123]

We'll hopefully be able to start things up tomorrow or the next day, as I've now got NZPL up and running.
I've worked out most of the ratings, so I just have to finalize them, and put the players in the sim.

 

[Prats]

wow! Great news. Just waiting eagerly to see how this goes.
