The MacRumors Fantasy Football League 2012-13

Lost count of the number of charges, but I remember a salivating chimp riding the lead elephant, thinking 'No, please, not again!', and praying to Cheesus - the sacred block of cheddar said to return and show the mice the way to the Cup of Plenty. Congratulations to pachyderm fc and their merciless manager - the match has left us with our limbs in plaster.

twietee - our medical team is good and the chimp will be hired for insurance, 'til Saturday!

Cheers,
OW
 
Dear Oscar Wilde,

gotta tell you I pimped that chimp for ages! So been there, done that. I'll give you a -4 points deduction to raise spirits though.

Yours truly,
twietee
 
A very quick update today on the Cup results and fixtures – I'll post tables following this Gameweek's round of matches.

Here's how we've done in the last week...

LITH United 26 - 25 Sporting Dual-Cores
Hardly Athletic 75 - 38 Elisbury Hill
Pinstripe City 42 - 26 Horizon Heights
Brainerd FC 48 - 31 Woodingtonhampshire
T!llionaire Toyshire 29 - 49 Omaha Latics
Pachyderm FC 75 - 61 Neutron Heath
Mancunian Mopheads 45 - 51 Argy-Bargy
Thigh High Socks 24 - 50 Tall Saints
Fizzy's Flyers 39 - 51 The Stoplights​

...and here's what we have to look forward to.

Sporting Dual-Cores v Pachyderm FC
Neutron Heath v T!llionaire Toyshire
Omaha Latics v Brainerd FC
Woodingtonhampshire v Pinstripe City
Horizon Heights v Hardly Athletic
Elisbury Hill v Fizzy's Flyers
The Stoplights v Thigh High Socks
Tall Saints v Mancunian Mopheads
Argy-Bargy v LITH United​

But allow me a moment to tell you all about February's MacRumors Manager of the Month Award. I can only assume that meteors burning through the skies last month were a portent of rare and amazing events to come because, after seasons and seasons of trying, pachyderm has finally won something! :eek: That's right, Smyrna's finest outscored us all last month with a mammoth tally of 209 points.

Well done, pachyderm. :)

My aims for this season are to make the Playoffs and finish in the top 6 of the league. So far it's been my best season yet - the Mopheads are on the up and up!

Well, you're certainly on track to qualify for the Cup's knock out stages. With six Gameweeks left in the regular fixtures you're nine points clear of ninth place, with 18 points still to play for.

Of course, the team currently in ninth place is mine so it's all academic anyway. ;)
 
I've lucked out too this GW. Thought it will be difficult to score, yet my opponent (whose name I forgot - no handshake?) scored even less. :cool:

Makes me transferring rather lavishly. Is -12p arrogant against WoodnufNFC?

toys ftw!

----------

Btw. during playoffs, is the 8th playing against the first and so on?

I'm not sure! That used to be the case but last season a few of us were taken by surprise when the ties were apparently drawn at random. When I set the Cup up though there wasn't an option to decide how it's drawn so we'll just have to see in a few weeks!

However, one thing I can tell you with 100% certainty is how the last Gameweek's results went...

Mancunian Mopheads 48 - 52 Sporting Dual-Cores
Hardly Athletic 48 - 41 Tall Saints
Pinstripe City 12 - 36 The Stoplights
Brainerd FC 39 - 41 Elisbury Hill
T!llionaire Toyshire 52 - 8 Horizon Heights
Pachyderm FC 51 - 30 Woodingtonhampshire
Neutron Heath 41 - 11 Omaha Latics
Thigh High Socks 12 - 33 LITH United
Fizzy's Flyers 46 - 42 Argy-Bargy​

That leaves our table looking thus...

Next Gameweek's fixtures then...

Sporting Dual-Cores v Neutron Heath
Omaha Latics v Pachyderm FC
Woodingtonhampshire v T!llionaire Toyshire
Horizon Heights v Brainerd FC
Elisbury Hill v Pinstripe City
The Stoplights v Hardly Athletic
Tall Saints v Fizzy's Flyers
Argy-Bargy v Thigh High Socks
LITH United v Mancunian Mopheads​
 
YESSSS! The Stoplights....:D

....time to recoup loyal fans for the woodNUFC-desaster.
 
If you don't know, lucky you!

Someone else may explain, I don't want to have to think about it ;)
