Quote:O.K. Sherman. Just for the record I am a Highlander but was so new as of last Saturday that I did not have the proper pass to log on to play. Coincidentally I just recieved the newest pass while reading this enormous thread. I will do my best to be there on Saturday. Though I may be the only one.

Thanks for the info Hawaiian Max (err, Combat). R U from Hawaii? And thanks for the Captain vote! I may not be the best player on the team, but I'll try to keep this team moving forward. I believe we have yourself, Ghost TT and possibly Nathan (TD or Hugo told me Nathan was interested) for this Saturday. As posted earlier, I'm unable to make this week's game :(

I will be hounding the TT servers in search of players worthy of our team! Combat (Hawaiian MAX, which do you prefer?) could you do the same? I'm trying to get a hold of Nathan and Ghost TT. If you happen across them, point them to this thread and see if we can get their email addresses. I have yours from the TT forums profile. Is that a good one to contact you with? You can email me @ firstvln@earthlink.net

I saw a forum posting somewhere with Cowboy , I hope that he's the one on our team 'cause there was an email address in his profile

Thanks Az,

Haven't seen him around lately but I'll certainly keep looking. Anyone know if Nathan is around? His website said he would be away.

Highlanders so far :
Combat Rock
Cowboy*
Ghost TT
Nathan*
Sherman

*unconfirmed members

I think we will have Combat, Ghost and nathan for this week's game. Still short but better than b4! I'll keep looking.

If anyone has iTank's email then let me know!

Ghost TT - I need your email!

Combat Rock was there for Highlanders. Slide WRX and Foulplay were subs. For TGS: Spony, Clax and Hugobrain were there. 3x3, game on it was!

Score first game: TGS:13 - HLD:7
Clax: 5 - Spony: 4 - Hugobrain: 4
FP: 4 - WRX: 3 - Combat Rock: 0

We never played the second game since Combat Rock disappeared at its beginning... Never to be seen again! =) Combat Rock, the league games are 2 rounds! =)

@Drew.. We just finished selecting team Captains.. look for new player try outs soon!

@Hugobrain.. Thanks for the stats from the 2PM game! Will update site.

@All.. The 4PM game was a hoot.. Only myself and -z- showed to start. One from each team. parDAWG came in and then left for a while during game one. FoulPlay tagged out with me in game 2. Poor -z- had two rounds of hard one on one scrum.

The final was: Ghost Squadron 30
The Smiling Bots 14

Individual scores: Tank Dork 22
-z- 14
FoulPlay 8

Anyways.. it was a fun game.. Hopefully over the next two evenings I will have the ideas posted here broke down into something we can hash out and make final decisions!

Alrighty, I'm back now and should basically be around until thanksgiving (thats in october for us canadians). Tommorow I am planning to update the site and contact all the new registrations. We definitly have enough new members to fill out the ranks! Now that the summer is ending I'm going to get off my ass and get this working more smoothly.

Lots of good suggestions for you to take into account in this thread Loler.
Glad to see you back and with some time to devote =)

Each team has a solid Captain now so coordination with teams should flow alot smoother.

Ghost Squadron = Tank Dork
Smiling Bots = Tally Ho
Ground Stompers = Hugobrain
Highlanders = Sherman

All we need now is a solid scheduling method we can all (or most)agree with.. and have a rule on substitution and team size.
