I was the first human-controlled side to win Division One in FTP for the West Indies, and made it to the final 16 of the cup...

I didn't pay much attention until season 3, really.

If I paid attention from when I signed up I could be challenging the top sides in zimbabwe more often, as it is I finished 4th in 20/20 last season and have had a relegation or two.
 
We should aim for a PC member in the top division of every Division 1 OD in every country :D

As crap as some of the smaller nations are in the lower down divisions the top division strength is still pretty mighty across the board. How about they introduce Zim as a nation and we all migrate there?
 
I say give it another 10-12 seasons, and we'll have a few Div II sides here. Many of them are gracing Div II from time to time...(The TT Lions...*sigh*...), shouldn't be too long till we can scrape our way to Division I.

Nah.

I think people are getting bored with me winning the pc comp all the time, finishing behind me in the leagues would be too much for some to cope with.

Well, myself, Shev and Justin are all in Div III, and I reckon myself or Shev could get promotion in our OD league in about 4 seasons time and WC already is a Div II side. It's just Syl letting us down in Australia :(

WI Div II v SA Div II, I know which I'd choose :p

I threw my last game to avoid auto-promotion to Div II, I then managed to throw my play-off game too :D. Glad about that, ****ashire Warriors are in my new FC side, or rather Hotwire as they are now known. Pretty much were the best III side and could walk into most II leagues and finish top 3.
 
Zim isn't a bad idea if I can get Harare I'm in and Mugabe as my spokesperson then I'm double in! The other problem is I hope they don't change our currency over to Zimbabwean dollars because I think Battrick will need a few more pages to allow for all the zeros, our groundsmen will all have the same hobby in life, decorating the border, chicken and pap our lunch each and everyday with some skokiaan (moonshine) "Utshwala buqinisa umzimba" beer makes you stronger!

Just think :p
 
I got a real life friend in my OD league. Stoked. Tough cup game, and stupidly sold my allrounders over the off season, so this season I'm messing around with 5 bowlers, basically not enough batsmen, and too many bowlers. The balance is all wrong.
 
You can probs get away with playing 5 bowlers at your level, the all-rounders only really begin to matter once you go towards the high end leagues
 
It just depends on what your good at. Don't pick an all-rounder just because you think you need one. Pick the best.
 
:D


Just took a look over my leagues again.


In FC I could actually, feasibly, beat or draw with every side in my league. They're all slightly better than me, but no by a large margin.

My T20 leagues, is full of bots. :D Nice chance to let Fingall and Parol gain some Exp. while resting the key players.

As for OD League, same as last season with a few bots. So Liddlelow will be playing every game and be my key to victory, while I might throw a few games to ensure I don't promote.

I probably won't promote in FC to start with, but I won't do as badly as I thought I would. Mid-table if I try hard. And if I end up doing to well, I can always throw a game...

And I'm promoting in BT20 no matter what I try. Oh well :D
 
I'm a big fan of this new feature where the bots are in italics!
