FTP: From the Pavilion general chat

1) You can't promote. They auto promote when they hit 20. They can still play in Senior games though.

2) Setting training does not reduce training efficiency. Having more players than the soft-limit of the squads (20 players for senior, 25 for youth) will cause training efficiency to fall. That is, if you have 21 players in your Senior Squad, your training efficiency drops. 22 players, it drops further. And so on.

just under 83k ratings. I may spend up to 400k or so more, actually and push for promotion this season, then stay safely in mid table of Div 2.

Just signed up with a team again.. You can see how bored I am.

I've challenged Ste for a match on Sunday. Should be fun.

Anyone check out the Nightwatchman? Brilliant site. It's FTP's official news site.

And does no one have any questions for me? Tommorrow is the last day, after which I shall be writing up my mid-season review...

I had a quick look. Nothing that caught my eye.

You should destroy me. My bowling could keep you to a reasonable total, but my batting is sub-par (for now, at least)

What do I do after I get my new team? Any particular things I should stay away from or do?

 

[ZoraxDoom]

I can't feature that in my interview (Maybe I can...), but just the basics. Look a few posts before yours, where I explained it to Lefty...

I thought I read something that you could promote them. That was a while ago anyway.

It changed quite recently. You can play Youth players in senior games though, which is a godsend considering I have 3-4 in there.

Wise Choice :cool:

7 wins in 7 games in SOD Division 1 of the West Indies. Only 3 'official' losses this season - One in the Cup, one in T20, and one in YOD. First in all three comps. Life is sweet :cool:

Hehe, and your killing me in the game right now

Blue Falcons: 192/7
The Blind Society: 113/3 after 21 overs

I have no hope in this game.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

And that was my second XI - Seniors who can't make it, and good youth players not good enough for the senior squad

Lets get a list going of all the PC members who play FTP -

Zorax - The Blind Society
Jaz - ???
Pak - Blue Falcons
ste_mc_efc - Everton C.C
Sureshot - ???
Lefty - ???
Cricketman - ???

Anyone else?

Eleven youth pops today. No point listing them all.

16 year old prodigy popped to average bowling as well as a less notable 16 year old.

Bought 3 capable batsmen over the last week for a grand total in the region of 410k. All 3 need a bit of work but two are ready for the first team now. All are young enough to please me.
