Heh. As of right now I have Carcharoth, Phantomwolf, and Feanor as my team. The jury is still out on Mardil. Everyone else? Gone.
|
I have four players left and Melkor pending... :p :( :rolleyes:
|
I have Ar Zimrathan left, Melkor and Tilion are pending.
|
Oh what a pathetic bunch we are! :rolleyes:

Valimar! Valimar! :p tp...'nother question, how are you scoring shootout goals? |
That wasn't me who posted that, Boro. ;)
And shoot-outs don't figure into the point totals. |
The last match of round 2 is coming up within the next two hours.
|
Oh. Then who's "Shadwell Army"?
|
That would be Skip's team.
|
Phantom, check your PM box, all right!
|
Ah, I can see the problem. Hope that takes care of it, Skip. :)
I've got the full list of leading point-getters and goal/assist scorers ready now, so I'll throw that up right after I put the Phantasy points and standing up and we'll be ready to take trades. Again, 8 star limit, no more than 3 players from one team, and use a legal formation (3-5-2 and 3-4-3 are not legal). |

keeping track of stats...
Remember, at the end of the tournament there are bonus points to be handed out to those who correctly predicted the various scoring leaders. Let's see where they're at right now.

It has been decided that two "neutral" locations with excellent facilities and a history of strong (and non-violent) support for football matches will host the quarterfinals- Gondolin and Rivendell. The four teams from Beleriand will go to nearby Gondolin, while the four teams either West of the sea or East of the Misty Mountains will come together in Rivendell.
QUARTERFINAL MATCHES Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth (at Gondolin) Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum (at Gondolin) Armenelos vs Minas Morgul (at Rivendell) Mirkwood vs Valimar (at Rivendell) |

Oh. Sorry about that with the team. I misunderstood, I thought you had to bring on new players to replace the ones that were from teams no longer in the competition. Since I am only allowed two trades, I will bring on Feanor and Eonwe. I will drop my deadwoods of Miriel and Finwe.

Fun analysis on the game thread, Boro. :)
Everyone else- do the same please! I don't mean you have to write big long pre-match breakdowns, but you should at least make predictions, for they are worth points! Each quarterfinal prediction is worth two points, so that's eight points out there for the taking! Those points can take the spot of a missing player (and I know all of you are missing players). |
Quote:
And Boro, you're doing just splendidly in the game! I need to take some risks to catch you now with your eight players fresh and scoring for you already before the changes... I need to change the forwards at this phase (on these semifinals I don't trust any defence to hold as all the forwards of any of the opponents are just too unpredictably strong) So off with **Miriel and -Nerdanel (my heart weeps indeed, the best players in this tournament...) and two stars worth of "money" to spend. In with... hmm... *Eonwë of Valimar (who will receive the captaincy from Miriel) and *Beleg of Dor-Lomin...

Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum - Dor Lomin wins! Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Armenelos wins Mirkwood vs Valimar - Valimar wins |
My predictions are below.
Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth - Angband wins Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum - Hithlum Wins Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Armenelos wins Mirkwood vs Valimar - Valimar wins |

And you know Nogrod, it's clear I've been gravely under-estimating Dor-Lomin's potential all year (I didn't even have 'em making it out of group play!), so if Hithlum is defeated, I'm in trouble and the door's open. ;) I'll tell you too, I'm not so great at the NCAA March Madness that we have in the US. I usually start out of the gates really hot the 1st couple rounds, but once it gets down to 16, and the Elite 8, everything breaks down. That is when I start hoping everyone else's Tourney brackets just start getting messed up. :p Edoras and Minas Morgul was a tough one too call, that was virtually a toss-up for me, and that hurt some people. But the real killer had to be Mirkwood's surprising win over Tuna, no one saw that one coming! |
Quote:
But this is a risk-taking game... Last year I was doing pretty good as well (not this good) and went on for real risks (eg. choosing different than other people did) and lost heavily in the end. I have a bad feeling about this one as well, but the one who is afraid should not gamble! :p |
Well, my team's in trouble... but did anyone expect Mirkwood to beat Túna? Aiii!:eek:
And I'm only allowed two trades... I'll drop Elros and Felarof and add Carcharoth and Caranthir.

And now– predictions.
Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth– Winner: Angband. Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum– Winner: Hithlum. Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Winner: Armenelos. Mirkwood vs Valimar: Winner: Valimar. And if I'm wrong on any of this, I'm in big trouble!:rolleyes: |
Boo, Nerwen! You lose points for taking my goalie. :(
Shasta's Predictions Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth– Winner: Angband. Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum– Winner: Hithlum. Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Winner: Armenelos. Mirkwood vs Valimar: Winner: Mirkwood. |
Quote:
Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth - Tol-in Gaurhoth wins (A hard one) Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum - Hithlum wins Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Armenelos wins Mirkwood vs Valimar - Valimar wins |
Transfers:
Celebrimbor out; Alatar in Finwë out; Melkor in Jeez, Phantom, it seems cruel that we were allowed unlimited trades when we didn't really need them, but only two now when you'd trade an arm for a decent goalie! Shadwell Army -GK- Aule (Tuna) 2 -DF- Elfwine (Edoras) 0 *DF- Ulmo (Hithlum) 2 -DF- Ar Zimrathan (Armenelos) 2 *DF Alatar (Valimar) -MF- Telvildo (Angband) 1 *MF- Fingolfin (Hithlum) 0 -MF- Arien (Valimar) 4 **MF Melkor (Valimar) (C) *FW- Ar Pharazon (Armenelos) **FW- Fëanor (Hithlum) Predictions: Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth– Winner: T-i-G Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum– Winner: Hithlum. Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Winner: Armenelos. Mirkwood vs Valimar: Winner: Valimar. (they'd better!) |
So I picked the good teams, but terrible players. Ah well. With my two trades, I have just around a full team. Let's see if they can play like they mean it in the quarters.
--Earendil (Eregion) --Celebrimbor (Eregion) ++Ar Adunakhor (Armenelos) ++Gloredhel (Dor-Lomin) The Next-to-Last Alliance *GK- Tar Atanamir (Armenelos) *DF- Balrog #3 (Valimar) -DF- Gloredhel (Dor-Lomin) -DF- Elfwine (Edoras) -DF- Balrog #5 (Angband) *MF- Phantomwolf (TIG) *MF- Ar Adunakhor (Armenelos) -MF- Fingon (Hithlum) *FW- Maedhros (Hithlum) (C) *FW- Sauron (Armenelos) *FW- Maeglin (Angband) My picks: Angband vs Tol-in-Gaurhoth - While I would love to say Angband, they just don't have the stopping power this year without Melkor or their legions of Balrogs. T-i-G Dor-Lomin vs Hithlum - Dor-Lomin got farther than I expected them to, but Hithlum is on top. Hithlum Armenelos vs Minas Morgul - Now this is a matchup. Numenoreans vs. Nazgul, Men vs. Orcs, and Sauron vs. the Witch King. Armenelos Mirkwood vs Valimar - Mirkwood has a good all-around roster, emphasizing teamwork between Men, Elves, and Worse things. Valimar has near-divine power on their side. I know who I'm going for. Valimar |
Alright, one little adjustment. I had taken out Indis and put in Uldor. Uldor got some extra points last time because of an assist...so I think it's actually the right time to remove *DF-Uldor (Angband) and replace him with his fellow teammate *DF- Drauglin (Angband).
Hoping it's actually Drauglin's turn on the team to pick up some extra points with an assist...hmm or even a goal! :p So... Boro's Blunderbusters *GK- Huan (Hithlum) -DF- Ar Zimrathan (Armenelos) *DF- Drauglin (Angband) *DF- Balrog #3 (Valimar) *DF- Ulmo (Hithlum) -MF- Nazgul #6 (Mirkwood) -MF- Beruthiel (Minas Morgul) -MF- Earendil (Eregion) *FW- Eonwe (Valimar) *FW- Sauron (Armenolos) **FW- Feanor (Hithlum) (C) |
I'm surprised you didn't get rid of your two deadwood players, Boro.

He did, Shasta. He had four dead players- now he has two. His Uldor trade for Drauglin was basically just taking back his Indis for Uldor trade and making it Indis for Drauglin instead.
