Warrior General Games

Nighthawks game is the only one I expect you to win, and even they are a very good side on thier day. Swords might be the make or break game for you though, if you can go 2-2 your in good shape for the play offs.

A lot of respect to the Lumberjacks. Great game tonight. The Philharmonic had been sacked 4 times, intercepted 3 times, fumbled 4 times in this game.

And we have to say sorry to the Monarchs. Apparently the Philharmonic were really in the bad shape for the playoff, so we couldn't go 2-2 now.

Really, really tough game. Hat off to the lumberjacks, no doubt the toughest opponent in the conference. We really put up the hardest fight we could, and luckily survived from those 3 INTs, 4 FUMs. That is just amazing... Our starting HB had 1 Fumble all season before the game, but you guys forced 4 on him in a single game, geez...

Sometimes I hate this sim. A 1 point loss on the last play of the game after we (AWC) passed up a short FG late in the 1st half.

That play sucked. There was 26 seconds left on the Opp 19. There is no reason our AI should not have tried the FG.

You'll be happy to hear, I'm now lurking in Alpha Pro too...I figure if I GM enough teams I might get a win against you one day

Thx Koncorde, nah, we wouldn't say we can still handle your team now. Things change really fast, and, urhhhhh, I guess SIM changes even faster

Good luck, hey, all you need is a great playoff run and we'll matchup again.

OK just for fun, I mapped out the remaining games for each team, assigned a difficulty rating, and made a end of season prediction based on that.

In brief that gives me the following Final standings.


13-3 Wu Jax

12-4 Paris

11-5 Warriors, Monarchs, Mercs

10-6 Toledo

9-7 Berlin

8-8 Rocks, Vikings, LCWD, FTA

7-9 AWC

6-10 Nighthawks

4-12 Carthage

1-15 Blackpool

0-16 Renegades


Actual standings now... (1 game remaining)

1 12-3-0 Paris Philharmonic
2 12-3-0 Woodridge Lumberjacks
3 11-4-0 London Monarchs
4 9-6-0 Toledo Swords
5 9-6-0 Berlin Blitzkrieg
6 9-6-0 Wembley Warriors
7 9-6-0 E-City Mercenaries
8 9-6-0 Aberdeen Wrecking Crew
9 8-7-0 Fightin' Texas Aggies
10 7-8-0 Chicago Rocks
11 7-8-0 Lake Charles Who Dats
12 6-9-0 Valhalla Vikings
13 6-9-0 Carthage Army Of Darkness
14 5-10-0 Stuttgart Nighthawks
15 1-14-0 Blackpool Mountain Lions
16 0-15-0 Richmond Renegades

Looks like the only ones that are likely to end up more than one game +/- are AWC and Carthage +2.

I'll take that.

In terms of the tiers I think Warriors and Mercs are a little below where I thought they were, and AWC are not as bad, although that team are always 50-50 to win/lose.

So all in all, not perfect, but close enough for me.

We could still miss the POs entirely if we lose to Rotterdam and AWC beats the Trolls. Barring any major upsets, we'd get bumped by FTA.

What a wild season!

(Love ya Aberdeen but, GO TROLLS!!!)

I really wish the angry, spoiler-happy Carthage hadn't shown up today. GG to them.

I've noticed that too! You are the GM of Berlin Blitzkrieg now. If we re-match in the playoff, I don't think we can take any advantage of the Blitzkrieg. So maybe that day will come soon.

Now go and take your predictions from the start of the season and compare those

I see you've spreaded down to South America too, I'll have to find a team round there now as well

Would if I could find them, or even remember them

Well, these were the ones from week 4: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=1123484
