Elros back for Theoden

and for predictions:

Angband versus Romenna: Angband wins

Nargothrond versus Tol-in-Gaurhoth: Nargothrond wins

Hithlum versus Taniquetil: Hithlum wins

Eregion versus Dor-Lomin: a tough one, but Eregion wins

Armenelos versus Erebor: Armenelos wins

Edoras versus Minas Morgul: Edoras wins

Tuna versus Mirkwood: Tuna wins

Valimar versus Minas Tirith: Valimar wins

You can't have Tom on your team. Bree is no longer in the competition. Also Tom is a two star player.

Neither should you have Idril of Alqualonde...

oh... wait... yeah... sorry about that....

I mean:

Replace Idril with Mardil
Replace Tom with Miriel

Make Eonwe cap'n o' this ship

The games are due to start very soon. I'm compiling a list of Phantasy teams right now to post. I will probably allow TGEW an extra trade after this round since she didn't make any after group play. Gwath will suffer a minor penalty for not changing his formation. And Nog- by my count you have 8 stars! :eek: You didn't count Tar Telperien's star it looks like. You still have time to change it if you move quick though.

Yeah, Eonwe has 8 stars as well...

Steve is okay. He accidentally gave Eonwe of Valimar an extra star.

Match 8:

Woo, go Carcharoth!

Oops! I didn't notice Tar-Telperien had a star... So I have eight now (thanks tp for notifying me).

Okay I can't take anyone from the teams whose game has been posted or whose results I have been writing (as I know them).

Hmm... tough choice but my own fault. There are only a few good candidates for defence left there without a star on them...


Replace Tar-Telperien with Elfwine of Edoras.


Leading to a new team...

Noggerball

*GK- Huan (Hithlum)

*DF- Luthien (Nargothrond)
-DF- Balrog #5 (Angband)
-DF- Elfwine (Edoras)
-DF- Ar Zimrathan (Armenelos)

-MF- Earendil (Eregion)
**MF- Melkor (Valimar)
*MF- Glaurung (Nargothrond)

-FW- Aredhel (Hithlum)
**FW- Miriel (Tuna) (C)
-FW- Nerdanel (Tuna)

So Angband, Tol-in-Gaurhoth, Dor-lomin, and Armenelos advancing so far.

Bah, I say.

I feel worse for anyone who dropped Turin from their roster. :p

TGEW will claim a lot of points on this round...

I think she is the only one having him in her team... :confused:

Now here's to hoping Miriel sputters due to a sore leg! :D Didn't you drop your wolf-self for her? :p

Nope. I've had her (Miriel) from the very beginning and had her from the very beginning to the end last season as well... :) And I went mad when I realised Shasta had took her as a captain and refused to nominate her for a few rounds as I think we should have different captains at least in the beginning...

I took in Nerdanel after the last round (I had her almost from the beginning last year as well). Now she better make more than four points my ww-self did... :rolleyes:

Hee hee. ;)

In all peace and love that is...

But my going with the principles cost me some twenty points... Well, it was the same last year. :rolleyes:

Heh...

Of course, now that I dump Turin, who was my captain he starts performing...jerk!

The mighty Tuna Trio falls! hehe...let's go Feanor, let's show all those who dumped you why you ARE the best player. :p:D

Lord have mercy for the faithless... Dumping your own screen-name at that!
...
Ha, Tuna got beat too!

Whoa!!! :eek:

Túna out?

And USA beat Spain in RL...

What is happening in this and that world? :rolleyes:

Okay, Edoras - Minas Morgul coming soon (an hour, max. two)

UGH!

NOOOO. My team has fallen apart. I lost all my strikers, one of my midfielders and one defense. If Edoras loses then I have lost my GK and two defense. Turin and Feanor are my new star players.

I think that means each of these LotR teams gets matched with a real one. Tuna was Spain and Mirkwood was the US. I think I was right about the way who wins a match is decided.

Sorry but this Edoras - Minas Morgul match is becoming a full novel (not quality- but lengthwise)... :rolleyes: It will be ready quite soon, half an hour, I promise...

And the next time I will be more economic.

If Valimar wins then I have three people left on my team. If Valimar loses then I only have Ar Zimrathan on my team.

You're not the only one losing players at this round... :confused:

But your losses seem to be considerable... But look at the bright side of it: fresh team in your hands on the next round (insofar as how many changes are allowed)! :)

True. I am definitely bringing Feanor back. I kept him up until the last round.

I like Turin, that's all I have to say...

Feanor and Turin are the best forwards of this round. Dor Lomin plays Hithlum next round. Only one of them will remain in the competition and I think it will be Feanor. Turin just had a round of luck.

Hmm... Well, Feanor and Turin... I'd say they're both pretty good guys, I couldn't predict who out of the two of them will win though...

That is why you have to look at the rest of the players on their teams.

Exactly. Who has the best group? It's all a matter of opinion. You have to figure it out yourself, that one.

Looking at the personal scores the Túna forwards were just on the level of their own!

Nerdanel 20pts., Finwë 21pts. and Miriel 26pts.


Compare that to Dor-Lomin: Beleg 17pts. and Túrin 19pts.

Or Hithlum: Aredhel 14pts., Maedhros 11pts. and Fëanor 21pts.

Or the infamous T-I-G: nogwolf 12pts., gwathwolf 6pts. and SPMwolf 14pts.


But this is a game and in games the best do not always win... :rolleyes:

As soon as Skip posts the final game I will post point tallies.

Everyone's team has taken a hit, though some are far worse than others. :eek: Deciding who you will add and subtract at this point could really swing things! And predictions for the next few rounds will be an important source of points as well.

Is the star cap still going to be seven?

Nope.

The new star cap is eight.

And just so everyone sees it....

STARTING NEXT ROUND YOU ARE ALLOWED EIGHT STARS ON YOUR ROSTER!

And remember, this is the playoffs now. You are only allowed two trades. Use them wisely. You may begin trades after I have posted Phantasy points for this round.
