Phantasy Thread: Arda Cup Football 2009

[the phantom]

Thank you, Hakon, and it certainly couldn't be done without the writing and planning of Nogrod and Skip as well as the participation of those with teams in the mix, including you.

Heh heh... yes Morm, real time points results are for gold-level members only. It's $29.95 per month. But seriously, we haven't been doing that simply because it creates more work for the writers who have their own teams to manage and such. Currently I try to do the complete list after all the games are posted, but there's nothing stopping you from looking at who you have and figuring up your points on a piece of paper if you can't wait.

I wouldn't mind keeping track of the points after the matches are in, I am pretty much doing that already. Although, tp, if you could post your complete list again after Rd 2, so I can check to make sure I'm keeping track of the points properly. I am not much of a math person (recently I found 3+4 to be rather difficult ). Anyway, I could post the individual points after the matches come out, no problem...and I won't charget anything to the tournament committee either
