CM 4 Net Game Running Thoughts

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:28 PM

Server up at 24.62.80.48, just making sure the right ports forward to my machine

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:33 PM

And the right ports go through

Thanks to SI Games for telling me which ports go to my machine

It works, RPI is in

GoldenEagle · 08-09-2003, 09:35 PM

I have to download EP 5 first.

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:36 PM

Ok..

Would one of the folks on the server just post a quick message on how they joined? RPI is having trouble selecting a team

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:37 PM

Never mind. I will be available on AIM: CambridgeForever (or other IM's ask me for them) and also in Manager Chat on CM4 if folks have problems/questions/trash talk

atatange1 · 08-09-2003, 09:38 PM

I got in fine. I'll get back in right now.

GoldenEagle · 08-09-2003, 09:41 PM

Im in, how do I chat in the game?

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:42 PM

OK. we will have 16 teams in Div 3: What I propose is a Div 3 Preseason Cup:

Teams will be divided into 4 groups of 4, where they play each other ONCE

Top team from each group plays a knockout stage (4 teams, 2 rounds)

Winning team gets the envy of the other 15

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 09:42 PM

Eagle: Game Options, Manager Chat

McSweeny · 08-09-2003, 09:46 PM

so what D3 team did i land?

McSweeny · 08-09-2003, 09:51 PM

dola

ok i'm in and i'm the southend shrimpers

prepare to be shrimped! and yes, it is as painful as it sounds

GoldenEagle · 08-09-2003, 09:59 PM

Very good concept, lets get it rolling

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:00 PM

First "session" will be Monday at 7 PM EDT, please make it if you can

Right now, we're just talking idle transfers, setting up contracts and the like

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:00 PM

It's tough for Cambridge right now, no transfer fundage, a 500K loan, and my top player's worth 95K

atatange1 · 08-09-2003, 10:03 PM

I lucked out and got two guys on-loan worth 1M and 425K.

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:04 PM

Grumps

Easy Mac · 08-09-2003, 10:04 PM

Hey, I'm in (Chris Mason) as Darlington.

Anyone in the chat room?

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:07 PM

I'm there, doing a bit of shortlist work, asking for loans, and trying to improve my team

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:10 PM

McSweeny, Winkingpirate wanted Southend, we'll have to figure out if he will show up or who else to give to you

oh whoops... i didn't see that southend was taken on the list in the other thread... if that's the case i'll just grab another team

Easy Mac · 08-09-2003, 10:25 PM

SirFoz

I quit for the night, my cable provider likes to randomly stop the internet every hour or so, so it blinks in and out from times. It seems I am automatically signed out from the game.

atatange1 · 08-09-2003, 10:26 PM

I've never played a LL game. I hope I can figure out the financial side of the game.

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:28 PM

No problem:

I'll run the server till everybody's off.. then if anyone else wants to get on, I can load it up.

Monday at 6:45 PM I'll start it up, let everybody connect, and then we'll start around 7.

Ron said he'd get us a messageboard so we don't spam FOFC with this.. also.. if you have AIM, maybe it'd be best if we set up a chat room in AIM, instead of using manager chat

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 10:29 PM

McSweeny: Try retiring, and quitting and reentering, to select your new team

bbor · 08-09-2003, 10:49 PM

I'm gonna try getting in now

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 11:05 PM

All managers, AIM me at CambridgeForever, so we can get a chat room open

BreizhManu · 08-09-2003, 11:05 PM

i'm in

McSweeny · 08-09-2003, 11:07 PM

ok i took over as Bury

GoldenEagle · 08-09-2003, 11:15 PM

What is the chatroom?

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 11:18 PM

what's your AIM nick Eagle, I'll invite you in

bbor · 08-09-2003, 11:18 PM

Where can i D/L AIM?

SirFozzie · 08-09-2003, 11:19 PM

try www.aol.com or www.aolim.com or www.aim.com

The Afoci · 08-10-2003, 07:35 AM

Hey, I hope this won't matter, but I am out. Over the next few weeks, my nights are going to be extremely busy, so my CM time will be cut. I hope this doesn't hurt anything.

winkingpirate · 08-10-2003, 10:53 AM

Cool that things are getting going, is the server going to be up anytime today?

Thanks

SirFozzie · 08-10-2003, 11:17 AM

The Afoci: Sorry to hear that, once things calm down you are welcome to join.

Also, the server is now up

I hit continue game once, don't worry, it only advanced 15 minutes

SirFozzie · 08-10-2003, 02:23 PM

Preseason Tourney: The FOFC Cup

Assuming we have up to 12 for the first session, we will have four groups of 3, in a mini tournament. Each team will play each other team once (so one away game and one home game)

1v3
3v2
2v1

3 points for a win, 1 for a draw

Ties are broken in the following manner

1) Head to Head
2) Goal Differential
3) Goals Scored
4) Coin Flip

The winner of each group advances to a 4-team knockout stage semi final and final.

If we can get more then 12, we will invite additional non league teams to make it to 16, and there wil be four group stages held at four different locations. First to request a group stage be held will get it. The winner of each group stage advances to the knockout.
