30-05-2008, 09:32 AM
..you took my Spain.. meh :heh:

Considering the difficulty of the teams in the group this is perhaps a foolish choice.. but I choose Babel and Kuyt's Netherlands..

I used to enjoy using Koppers and De Rijk becak in the day.. and Dergdamp.. though not so much the more recent Oranges001 and Oranges007 and the like :heh:

Deathjam
30-05-2008, 10:02 AM
Dibs on portugal! Damn need to get that stupid router working and practice this game again!

I haven't played Pro Evo in donkies... but I did say in one of the other threads that I want Italia when we do this Euro 2008. That puts me in / nando's / group, ah well, its his funeral. :wink:

Japjer

You'd better win, nando!

(oh and, babel just got injured, he's out for ~7 weeks so he'll be replaced)

darksnowman
02-06-2008, 09:46 AM
i il have france

Wha-? I was certain you would choose Turkey, man. I might put you in for them anyway... you don't really wanna be the French do you? (please don't be in my group. :cry:)

flameboy
02-06-2008, 06:32 PM
Right Saturday when the real thing starts up will be the deadline for signing up. If we do not get the groups all filled they will filter through and merge so A with B and C with D...

Hopefully can get them full though..

Finally anyone up for a warm up friendly or 2 tonight? Say 8.30ish?

dazzybee
02-06-2008, 06:41 PM
Hmmm, see people are too scared to be a part of my group.......

flameboy
02-06-2008, 06:43 PM
lol, fancy a friendly tonight?

dazzybee
02-06-2008, 07:15 PM
I would, but irratatingly I lent my mate loads of Wi games when I went to cannes and she promised to bring them back the day I got back (a week ago) and she keeps forgetting, so I dont have it, really annoying. She's definitely bringing everything tomorrow.

flameboy
03-06-2008, 06:56 AM
I tried to look for a game last night, couldn't find one. This has bombed online.

/ nando /
03-06-2008, 12:13 PM
Yeh.. it was the same for me a couple of weeks ago.. unfortunately Mario Kart has killed it :(

Hopefully we can get a few games some night soon before the tournament gets underway (if it ever does..)

brynpearson
03-06-2008, 12:25 PM
ive been playing frequently online in the past couple of days and it takes about 2 minutes for it to find someone. its worth the wait cos i think the game is great

flameboy

brynpearson

u not playing ne more

flameboy
04-06-2008, 07:39 PM
im on now!!!!!

u not playing ne more

Nah gotta do some stuff before the apprentice starts.

good game 2-1 to you and 1-0 to you. In the first game I went all out defense as I had just lost 6-3 and 5-4 to people in free matches. Croatia aren't very good seem have a fair few slow players having said that I cannot defend for shit at the moment...most improve before compeition

brynpearson
04-06-2008, 08:09 PM
when will you be on again. im back into it big time now!

flameboy
04-06-2008, 08:13 PM
maybe after the apprentice but if not 2moro morning probably

brynpearson
04-06-2008, 08:24 PM
what time tommorow morning. best time for me would probly be after 5

flameboy
04-06-2008, 08:47 PM
I'm working 1pm-10pm 2moro so until about 12ish

brynpearson
05-06-2008, 08:22 AM
right. is ne one going to be online after 5:20pm i will be so pm me or reply here

flameboy
07-06-2008, 07:56 AM
Right its the last day for signing today...please if you are lurking and have not signed up jump on board now and sign up.

dazzybee
07-06-2008, 12:54 PM
Whyt don't we all have two teams, and if we end up playing in the knock out stages we can decide which team goes through?!?

Seems the only way to get this thing started

brynpearson
10-06-2008, 09:49 AM
i think ppl just like pickng teams on this and then not playing lol

tomma1000
10-06-2008, 10:24 AM
yeah not sure if its going to fill up much more..

maybe just put all the teams together or just put us all through to the next round and do a knock out?

dazzybee
10-06-2008, 02:04 PM
Yeah whats going on? Need to get moving on this. I'm well up for it, but people just don't seem to care!

darksnowman
10-06-2008, 05:31 PM
I will play whoevvah whenevvah. Are you gonna sort it out into a knock out seeing as we don't have all the groups filled?

brynpearson
10-06-2008, 05:31 PM
no point putting us throught to knockouts cos them games wunt get played then

dazzybee
10-06-2008, 10:22 PM
Anyone up for a game now?

flameboy
11-06-2008, 09:02 AM
Well I'm open to suggestions as to where to take this...thought I'd leave this a bit past the deadline of the weekend see if they caught euro 2008 fever and signed up, but alas it has not happened.

EDIT

At the moment I see the groups dividing up as;

Group A

1 Portugal Deathjam
2 Croatia flameboy
3 Germany tomma1000

Group B

1 France brynpearson
2 Netherlands / nando /
3 Italy darksnowman
4 Spain dazzybee

this is simply by way of splitting off the first two groups and then the second two groups...Seems the most simple way to do it keeping the two sides of the draw the same but does kinda imbalance things...

Any other ideas and ways to do it?

brynpearson
11-06-2008, 09:06 AM
u fancy a game now

flameboy
11-06-2008, 09:08 AM
u fancy a game now

I can't I'm at work...will be back around 5ish maybe then? what do you think of the new groups? being current champ and all...

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 11:04 AM
I'll be up for playing tonight if anyone is interested. So are these the groups then? Bit of a group of death for is isn't it :)

tomma1000
11-06-2008, 02:00 PM
yeah groups are fine you free some time tonight flameboy?

brynpearson
11-06-2008, 02:07 PM
i will be online between 6-8 i think so look out for me as i mite be in a free match cos hardly ever ne friends online

darksnowman
11-06-2008, 06:06 PM
Between six and eight eh? Well I'd been on there for over an hour having some games and you didn't appear once... so my games were all randoms. You missed your chance to be Itailia'd. :heh:

brynpearson
11-06-2008, 06:41 PM
cnt go on cos tele is bin occupied by la familia. bin to b&q. if bird ant a dragged mi there i'd a bin first to tele. ha. so now am stuck watchin shitty hollyoaks

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 08:08 PM
If anyones up for a game in about an hour or after then I'm free

darksnowman
11-06-2008, 08:19 PM
Yeah, I might go on again later for a game or two if any of you boys are about!

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 08:24 PM
I'll come back on here when I'm free. Whens a good time for you?

darksnowman
11-06-2008, 08:31 PM
I'll go on after ten, have a few random games and hopefully see you. That ok for you, 'bee?

flameboy
11-06-2008, 08:48 PM
1st Thread has been updated.

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 08:51 PM
Yup Ill be on in about ten mins so hopefully see you then. Are we having friendlies or we having a group match?

darksnowman
11-06-2008, 08:56 PM
Bitta both? If we have an Italy v Spain somewhere along the line that I win, them yep that would have been the group match? :wink: If Spain win then you can be sure that we only had a friendly/ warm up! :heh:

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 08:58 PM
I tell you what shall we have our match first, then play a few friendlies?

PS Can you play as your champions road team?

darksnowman
11-06-2008, 09:00 PM
I don't think you can play as your Champions Road team, unless you can open up the ability to by playing the Champions Road? Ok then, first up Italy v Spain... then we will relax with a few other, stress free matches.

dazzybee
11-06-2008, 09:06 PM
I'm online. You're stevo aren't you?

/ nando /
12-06-2008, 10:56 AM
..that looks like a hell of a group! I should be available around midnight to play some Group B games if anyone is up for taking on the Netherlands.. which doesn't include Van Nistelrooy..

dazzybee
12-06-2008, 02:39 PM
First result in

Spain 2 - 1 Italy

Good game snowman. I thought I was the better team but you thumped the right angle deep into injury time :)
Games after were frustrating due to lag, glad our first game was okay.

nando, tonight do you want to play our game?

/ nando /
12-06-2008, 09:57 PM
Group B

dazzybee Spain 2 - 4 Netherlands / nando /

A strange game.. I started shockingly.. but it was 4-0 at one point! I felt I got a couple of lucky breaks to get myself into a comfortable position but a little annoyed to surrender 2 goals in the closing minutes..

flameboy
13-06-2008, 07:58 AM
Right sorry I havn't been around...as I've said with past tournaments on other games the end of the week is hard for me... But come sunday I can play some games...I will update the thread now to reflect results...

EDIT;

Tried doing the league tables...got bloody annoying with the formating gotta go to work now so will have to sort it out later.

Yep I confirm this.

I wish we had had a few warm up games first... then I might have beat you. Lol, seeing as I beat you in our two games after it. Ah well, puts Italy up against it just like in the real tournament.

Yeah, I thought I was playing much better fotball, then all of a sudden you just scored some long range efforts and that was that, terrible keeping :)

2nd game was ruined by the Robinson sending off, which, I'm sure you'll agree was just ridiculous! :)

One more game for me and thats group done. Free tonight bryn?

brynpearson
14-06-2008, 01:55 PM
im online now. not going to be on for long

darksnowman
14-06-2008, 03:30 PM
I challenged you but you went offline straight away, Bryn. Avoiding me?

brynpearson
14-06-2008, 06:53 PM
no must have been bad timing as i turned it straight off. wa rushing out.

flameboy
15-06-2008, 08:58 AM

flameboy
15-06-2008, 04:52 PM

4 would be great!

is it top 2 teams go through or....

yep top go through for semi final clashes...see you at 4.

Deathjam
16-06-2008, 12:36 PM
Ill try be on later too if anyone is up for a game. have to be something like 6-7.

flameboy
16-06-2008, 12:43 PM
Ill try be on later too if anyone is up for a game. have to be something like 6-7.

Yep ok, may as well get our group all done on polished! We could all technically end level on points if I beat tomma then you beat me... Either way our game at 6-7 will decide the groups second spot...

EDIT;

Croatia 1-2 Germany

Really struggled in this game, could have lost by far more, but a snap goal from srna left Croatia chasing the last 15 mins for nothing. Germany are through...If Croatia draw against Portugal they are through on goal difference.

tomma1000
16-06-2008, 05:35 PM
yep confirm scores

good game very tense at the end

you had a played red carded but on my replay it showed him tackling and missing... ? shame really as that affected your game

but yey through interesting to see who progresses as well

cheers flameboy

brynpearson
16-06-2008, 05:47 PM
online now so i il have a match wi ne one whos on. JB and Adam are in a match now. do either of you fancy a game afterwards.

darksnowman
16-06-2008, 05:55 PM
I'm coming for you Bryn, sit tight!

Deathjam
16-06-2008, 06:24 PM
Flameboy were you the croats? If so then I slightly redeemed myself although I felt I was VERY lucky at times. Not sure if I deserved to win

Portugal 3 -1 Croatia.

Then I played Bryn and it went to penalties! Was a bit pissed off as I had a chance right at the end, it even showed in the replay, and maniche flopped! If that was Deco, that would have been buried :blank

Portugal 2 - 2 France
pen 6 - 7 (i think)

brynpearson
16-06-2008, 06:30 PM
france 5 - 1 italy

enjoyed that

dont you want to confirm this result. i can see why!!:heh: :)

tomma1000
16-06-2008, 07:46 PM
sorry bryn would of played you but was waiting for flameboy. hopefully get a game in soon though

yep that was me...I felt very hard done by especially after a storming second half...but nevermind, our group is finished and you and tomma are through and I am eliminated.

Oh and yeah tomma your penalty was not a foul...on my screen I got the ball fair and square the player didn't even go down...damn lag I suspect...

darksnowman
16-06-2008, 09:40 PM
Yurp, Bryn did me in. I should probably have had a warm up game before hand but fair play to Bryn- I got it to 1-1 and then he killed me for the duration of the second half.

dazzybee
16-06-2008, 10:15 PM
Bryn you're not around now by any chance are you?

/ nando /
16-06-2008, 10:24 PM
He's on MSN.. but he hasn't got back to me.. I've been trying to play him for a few days now :heh:

flameboy
17-06-2008, 05:28 PM

flameboy
20-06-2008, 08:10 AM
right am I right in thinking that there is one game left to play in group b? Anyway...if we can hold off the knockout stage for a couple of days as we are doing a feature about the tournament for the main site, hopefully will drum up some interest for any future leagues we have.

/ nando /
20-06-2008, 10:25 PM
I have to play brynpearson and darksnowman.. and I think brynpearson and dazzybee are yet to play?

Is anyone free tonight or before 5pm tomorrow? If so, let me know so we can get these games played.. I haven't played in a good few days so my 'form' will be gone :heh:

flameboy
21-06-2008, 06:05 AM
Ah right ok...

Well guys try and get them done over this weekend if you can.

darksnowman
21-06-2008, 02:12 PM
Italy 2-3 Netherlands.

I hit the post with De Rossi, that's about the highlight!

/ nando /
21-06-2008, 02:21 PM
Group B

darksnowman Italy 2 - 3 Netherlands / nando /

Didn't play as well as I would have hoped (considering we played a friendly beforehand and I had done very well in that one :heh:) but thankfully I got the result in the end.. despite being very very wasteful in front of goal, particularly one-on-one situations, and having to come from behind twice..

It's all down to you now Bryn..

dazzybee
21-06-2008, 05:42 PM
Bryn letting the side down? That makes a change ;)

/ nando /
21-06-2008, 10:12 PM
The pressure is on you at the moment, dazzybee :heh: ..it looks like you will have to beat brynpearson.. though despite 2 victories I am not yet through..

flameboy
22-06-2008, 10:39 AM
updating top thread now.

All updated;

http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pAWnnrGuUshLHn4aD0JEyUA

http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/7195/leaguetable2kw1.jpg

Remaining games are;

France - Spain

Netherlands - France

For a chance to join Germany and Portugal in the semi finals.

Well other than me and darksnowman (who surely have to share a wooden spoon losers play off?) things have been pretty tight. The pressure is definitly on the champions league champ Bryn to get the points, / nando / will be nervous but points in the bag are better than games in hand.

EDIT;

Actually nando you have already qualified as I wrote in the first thread;

All teams play each other once and the top 2 in each group go through with 1st playing 2nd in the opposite group. Positions are based on points>results against each other>goal difference etc...as per the real world Euro 2008.

Which means you can still finish below France if you lose but not Spain as you beat them...unless they finish with 9 and then you lose to France....

So actually your not totally through...so why I am still writing....but they can't cos they only have one game left, so yes you are through...

brynpearson
22-06-2008, 10:53 AM
ne one on then

/ nando /
22-06-2008, 10:55 AM
..ah.. nice.. I didn;t read that! I knew that's how it worked in Euro 2008 but I thought we were just going by Goal Difference.. this is good news :heh: ..My final match will decide who I play..

..and Bryn, I'm afraid I have to go out to work soon.. will be getting my lunch any minute! Same time tomorrow?

flameboy
22-06-2008, 10:56 AM
..ah.. nice.. I didn;t read that! I knew that's how it worked in Euro 2008 but I thought we were just going by Goal Difference.. this is good news :heh: ..My final match will decide who I play..

edit; oh your working...

/ nando /

Sorry that I can't play now.. but I have to be out of the house in about 10 minutes! Around midnight tonight suits me.. or any time before 4 tomorrow! So let me know in advance!

I didn't think I was through.. and if you think about it I'm not.. If dazzybee beats brynpearson and then I lose my final game then we'll all have an equal record against each other and so it would go down to goal difference..

I hope you 2 can play today so that I know what needs to be done :heh:

Group B

brynpearson France 5 - 3 Netherlands / nando /

Congratulations.. you were the better team (though I never really got going.. didn't do myself justice unfortunately)

It's all down to your final game with dazzybee now.. I trust you will go out to win that one too and not attempt to eliminate me..

brynpearson
23-06-2008, 01:33 PM
France 5 - 3 Netherlands

u cant be eliminated anyway. you beat him didn't you. it all goes down to goal difference if he beats me.

/ nando /
23-06-2008, 01:37 PM
But the problem is that if he beats you.. then I have beat him, you beat me and he beat you.. which is a nasty triangle :heh: ..surely that means I could still go out?

brynpearson
23-06-2008, 01:52 PM
thats why it would go down to goal difference.

/ nando /
23-06-2008, 03:25 PM
I will beat you in the final if we get there. Forget the results we had there now.. I have a mental block against you, but I'll get out of it when it matters..

brynpearson
23-06-2008, 03:30 PM
thts wot it could cum down to. never beaten and we meet in the final. its all set up for a dramatic finish lol.

23-06-2008, 03:34 PM
I hope so.. have to progress first and then get past the semi-final opponents :heh: I have played awful against you, but I just need to relax because I know I have it in me to beat you.. there's no fear :heh:

right I've just logged the result. going to update the table now. Looks like its gone right to the wire...france and spain decide the fate of the group.

The way I see it Holland are through if France Win OR Draw. If however Spain Win they go above France owing to better record against them, however Holland would also be aboth Spain owing to superior record against them and France would be above Holland as they beat them, so it would all go down to goal difference....

Which would mean a heavy defeat for France could see them go out whereas a moderate defeat could make things complicated with regards to goal difference.

phew...confusing...damn uefa and then damn me for following their example.

I tried to do a quick summary of all my games after they were played :heh: ..if you want any more information, let me know :heh: ..I'm desparate to get through to a final with the Champions League winner, brynpearson.. he put me in my place during the group stage and was the person who eliminated me from that first tournament, so revenge is definitely on the agenda!

I don't think I have played tomma1000 before, so it will be interesting.. any information on him would be appreciated : peace:

Deathjam

I played bryn before and we drew and the he won the resulting penalites. Should have won that match but maniche flopped a sitter :blank:

Well any feedback and reports would be very much appreciated. We are hoping it will get more interest in the game and in the next competition, as great as this one has been we need more people!

yep thats right...

Summary:

The group stages seemed to take forever to get going, and complete. This been due to players not been online at the same time as their opponents. With n-europe forums only being the real source of communications between players it was often by chance that you were online at the same time as your opponent. Then arranging a time to play was also tricky as conflicting schedules such as work, uni and social life got in the way of the tournament progressing at a swift pace. Personally i think this and the lack of people involved are the only downsides to the tournaments because as soon as the games begin you can't wait to play your next opponent and the fact that theres actually nothing up for grabs apart from being the champ, doesn't mean that the nerves, tension and competitivness isn't there. So get involved as i am need of more people to beat. ;)

is that alright flameboy. Not the greatest summariser i know. Will post a match report later!

The group stages were great fun with two difficult wins. My game against flameboy started off brightly with 2 goals in the first half. This was partly due to one of flameboy's players being red carded for a mysterious fowl... The 2nd half saw lots of chances at either end with flameboy scoring a goal late on in the match. But the final result was 2-1. A good game and so far a good tournment.

Group B

tomma1000 Germany 4 - 3 Netherlands / nando /

For the second tournament in a row, my participation ends in what can only be described as an unplayable mess. The lag was awful and it was a complete lottery.. neither player could have known what was happening on screen so, as is always the case when lag comes into it, I end up going out and feeling annoyed that I didn't get to play the game properly..

Very disappointed.. I feel I could have won this :sad:

tomma1000
25-06-2008, 05:21 PM
Likewise same result and amsuing lag as ever. Disappointed the game finshed like this espically the last 10mins when nando was chasing the game.

25-06-2008, 05:25 PM
I was hoping it would go to penalties as that would probably have been the fairest way of deciding the outcome.. but it wasn;t to be :hmm:
