FTP: From the Pavilion general chat

[Chewie]

Wow I got accepted overnight :/

Maybe it's because the season has already started?

 

[Iridium]

Could be. Or it could be that FTP is being a bastard to me. I signed up on Saturday night so might be done later tonight.

 

[Chewie]

yea hopefully

Accepted for what?

I made 420/6 and bowled them out for 94 with about as bad a team as I could play.

Not bad. But hoping to be kicked out of the PC shortly.

 

[Chewie]

I mean given a team.

I'm not in the Pavilion Cup... I suppose because I'm not ranked high enough?

 

[hedger_14]

Yeah. Go to the help thing I think and it will tell you. I lost my cup game badly, only defending 150 as they won by 7 wickets. Made an average pull as well. 16 year old, ordinary bowling, technique, endurance and keeping and average power but only poor fielding.

I guess there's a reason why they tell you check your junk mail folder. Oh boy how shaming.

Nicely done

Chewie added 7 Minutes and 3 Seconds later...

Iridium, once you've bought some players we should have a friendly

 

[Iridium]

Got a match against Central Thunderbirds. Set my match orders, set the best lineup I could and hope I don't get thrashed. It's all a bit confusing to me right now but should get the hang of it. I've just left everything at normal and see what that does.

See ya then.

 

[Chewie]

oh wow we're in the same group :laugh

We can still have a friendly if you want

 

[Iridium]

Lemme get a few games under my belt first. Maybe after my first match is done.

 

[Chewie]

ok. You should probably go onto the transfer market and find some good players And allocate the correct training to your players.

 

[Iridium]

How should I decide what training to give? Do I work on things in which they have rubbish ratings or train them with regards to what I want to use them for?

 

[Chewie]

You'll want one of the others to reply, but what I did is assign in my head whether a players is a bowler, batsman, keeper or all-rounder then give training based on that. Technique should be close to their primary skill as well. There are a few guides around the place which I read.

 

[hedger_14]

For new players, train on primary skills or the technique if the technique is more than a level below their primaries. And just get reliable primary players. Anyway, nice being in the same group.
