[IronMaxipad]

That's some fancy shit, Maxi. Well done.

Yeah. It also auto updates the scores when i input them on the site. pretty awesome.

[IronMexican]

When we gon' start?

[IronMaxipad]

When we gon' start?

When everyone Joins the league and picks a team imo

PSG and Napoli are taken fwiw

[MannyIsGod]

Nice

[lefty]

Wtf

[lefty]

Lefty

Liverpool

[IronMexican]

Liverpool got bumped down to a 4 1/2?

[scott]

I've got Borrussia Dortmund, tbqh

[lefty]

Liverpool got bumped down to a 4 1/2?

Yup

[scott]

Does every faggot playing 4.5 stars use PSG?

[IronMaxipad]

Every faggot picks Juventus with the pink kits. imo.

every time i pick a 41/2 star team i'm either matched up with juventus or barca

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I will update later today with what team I will be.

I'm also picking up battlefield 3 today, but either later tonight or at least by tomorrow I should be able to play you Iron Mexican

[lefty]

I'll be very busy during the next few weeks, so I'll have to play 1 game/week

Sorry :(

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I'm going to be Lyon, assuming they're 4.5 (trying to think off the top of my head)

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I also have a question about letting the AI defend for you. I usually bring a second player that I control to pressure the ball, or sometimes choose a player further back if I anticipate a header could be coming. I mostly do on the ball defending myself, but if a player is running on the outside of the box to cross it in I usually select a defender already in the box, as an example.

Is this not allowed? I assume letting the AI defend for you simply meant you couldn't just let the AI do everything and simply control a player all the time who has nothing to do with the play.

[MannyIsGod]

Sorry :(

I vote lefty gets relegated. Lol

These are really just some rules Maxi copied from another webpage, so I wouldn't worry about it. We all do what you are describing.

Oh okay, I just didn't wanna play a game and then get penalized because the AI helped me out while I was anticipating a pass or something.

Really looking forward to playing all of you guys online :toast

[scott]

I'm about to relegated from Division 9, so you guys might kick my ass even more this time around

By AI defending i was referring to switching to the goal keeper. They released a patch that disables this now so it shouldn't be a problem.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Oh gotcha

[MannyIsGod]

So serious, I'm not trying to be a dick but if Lefty can only play one game a week for a few weeks maybe we should do this go around without him and bring him back in next time around. Otherwise there's no way we finish as fast as we did the first league.

[lefty]

Relax Manny :lol

Its a linv season, not a sprint

[IronMaxipad]

Liverpool is still a 5 star team lefty..

Just checked.

[IronMexican]

Who should I pick?

[lefty]

Liverpool is still a 5 star team lefty..

Just checked.

Are you sure?

[lefty]

No


4 1/2

[MannyIsGod]

Who should I pick?

Qpr imo

[MannyIsGod]

Ill check when I get home but I'm pretty sure they are 5. Make sure you check using online ratings.

[scott]

Liverpool is 4.5 on my system.

Just got relegated to Division 10 after losing 3 straight games by 1 point, needing only 1 point to stay in league tbh

[MannyIsGod]

I think I need 3 points to hit division 8 but I have 4 games left.

[IronMaxipad]

Weird i was going to pick liverpool to play online right now and they're still 5 stars

[IronMaxipad]

If you quit within like the first few minutes of the game you don't get penalized. Whenever i get matched up with barca i just quit. :D

[MannyIsGod]

Good to know for those games with identical kits.

[IronMaxipad]

http://i.imgur.com/NUoh5l.jpg

Liverpool is 4 1/2 offline but online they're rated 5 stars on my system

[IronMexican]

So I joined, and picked Dortmund but Scott had them so I left and picked Napoli, and now it says I need an invite

Stupid question, but where do you see the online ratings?

Go to head to head seasons, then look at the teams there. The rosters for online play are a bit different and fixed.

[lefty]

I'm ready to game. Lefty, you ready?

Yup

[scott]

WTF? Lefty beats me 3-2. I had just begun a counter attack to tie it up and I got dropped and completely disconnected from PSN.

Thanks, shitty internet provider.

[lefty]

Just styled on Scott


3-2



Lol Scott



Lololololol

[scott]

Also, what setting did you activate so that they don't call any fouls on all your sloppy, SandTerror tackles, Lefty?

[scott]

Just styled on Scott


3-2



Lol Scott



Lololololol

Enjoy your shitty *win when you're watching all of us play the playoff bracket, again.

[lefty]

Dont be mad :lol

[lefty]

Asterisk?

Please

Only 2 minutes left


Plus, it's not like that counter was going anywhere

[scott]

How can I not be mad? I just lost to the shittiest player on the planet, tbh

[scott]

Asterisk?

Please

Only 2 minutes left


Plus, it's not like that counter was going anywhere

6 minutes plus extra time, and I was creating chance after chance after I set it to Ultra Attacking at 75'.

But, congrats on your *win. I'm sure you'll have at least one other one this season to go with it.

[lefty]

:lmao

I finished last in ST1 because Udinese are a bunch of midgets

I got outmuscled, but I dont suck

[lefty]

No

[IronMaxipad]

Lets play manny imo

[MannyIsGod]

[IronMaxipad]

[IronMaxipad]

It wasn't even lagging at all then boom disconnected fml

[IronMaxipad]

LOL

Can we just play it again? Seems like a week way to get the win.

No i would have to reset the league.

[lefty]

So far, my Internet is leading the league

[IronMaxipad]

[MannyIsGod]

LOL

Lefty - Want to play our game?

[lefty]

LOL

Lefty - Want to play our game?

Give me 5 minutes

Juve vs Napoli

Daaaaaamn

[lefty]

I diminated the game and lost 4-0 to Manny


FML, 4 fluke goals :lol

[MannyIsGod]

How'd you like that ass tapping, Lefty? :lol My favorite was the short corner.

4-0 wooooo

[MannyIsGod]

:lmao I had 11 out of 13 shots on goal to your 2 out of 4. Holy crap. You did beat me in possession though.

[IronMexican]

LOL

Can we just play it again? Seems like a week way to get the win.

:lol Imagine winnning the championship like dat.

[IronMexican]

Dropped to Div 6. God, this game can really make me pop a blood vessel sometimes.

[lefty]

How'd you like that ass tapping, Lefty? :lol My favorite was the short corner.

4-0 wooooo
:lol fuck off

[MannyIsGod]

Dropped to Div 6. God, this game can really make me pop a blood vessel sometimes.

Sometimes you can't make the damn pass go where you want it and sometimes defenders do really stupid shit and sometimes the ref plays an advantage that is just retarded and I feel the same way.

[lefty]

Defenders sometimes miss the interception, it's as if they are about to lose balance, the pass goes between their legs, and then the recipient of the pass scores easily


I've lost many H2H matches because of that BS

[IronMexican]

5-0 in Div 6 so far. I missed how easy it is.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Good game IronMexican.

Lost 2-4.

I also got demoted from division 5 to 6, but am 4-0 in Division 6. Was just 2 points off a division 4 promotion a week ago, damn.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Good game IronMexican.

[IronMaxipad]

Has anyone gotten their free fathead yet? These fucker are just spamming my email now! Where the fuck is my fathead?!!!!!

faggots

[MannyIsGod]

I got a notification mine shipped. I'm not sure anyone else bought their game from amazon like us.

[lefty]

wait?

what fathead? :D

[IronMexican]

I didn't get mine yet, either.

[lefty]

Didnt get any email :cry

[lefty]

Ah, only for Amazon pre-orders

[MannyIsGod]

Amazon is the best for pre orders, tbh. You get money back, guaranteed lowest price, and cool shit. Also, prime same day delivery is pure win.

What team did you guys get?

[IronMexican]

I think I got Chivas.

[lefty]

Those H2H games are gay

I always dominate, but I always lose

Fuck I must be playing against jobless nerds who play this game 24/7

[IronMexican]

Division 3

[MannyIsGod]

Any of you MFers actually playing your games?

[IronMexican]

Maxi said school is gay. Hope he has time this weekend.

[scott]

Why does my game v. Lefty show as 3-0? It was 3-2*.

I just picked up Rocksmith and with MW3 next week I may not be playing a whole bunch... so lets get some games out of the way tbh

[lefty]

Scott, I hope your Internet is still shitty

[IronMaxipad]

I upgraded my internet today!!!!

Ir:lolnMexican=F:lolcked

[IronMaxipad]

Maxi said school is gay. Hope he has time this weekend.

I got time tomorrow.

[IronMaxipad]

So i was playing a cup match and it was almost the end of double overtime when i score this fluke of a goal from a freekick. It was too far to kick it directly at goal so I was trying to pass it to the guy standing outside the box.. and look what happened instead:

http://www.ea.com/soccer/videos/ugc/101308750

:lmao

[IronMaxipad]

I beat ironmexican 1-1!!

[IronMexican]

It was a tight match throughout.

More importantly is that I have 7 points through 3 games in Div 3.

[urunobili]

who wants to get schooled on a friendly match? I'm rodman2211 there

[scott]

Sons we need to play some matches before MW3 drops and I don't play FIFA again until March.

[IronMaxipad]

Sons we need to play some matches before MW3 drops and I don't play FIFA again until March.

tbh we are waiting on you and ammused, at least i am. i play both of you next.

[MannyIsGod]

I'm getting bored with FIFA, tbh. We need to start playing this faster because pretty soon I'll be playing PES and FIFA will be traded in somewhere.

[scott]

Sons lets get some matches in before Galaxy-RSL match

[scott]

Got disconnected from EA servers and can't get back on. So fuck this game.

[MannyIsGod]

I got your invite after I got back from getting some grub. Next time.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

scott, accept my friend request when you can

[lefty]

Fuck, I've been checking the ST league for the last 3 days, nobody was on (well those who were online were playing other matches or leagues)


I think this league is gonna last a solid 2 years :lol

[MannyIsGod]

I think this league is going to end up DNF. I have PES collecting dust and I may need to get MW3 if the coop is any good.

[lefty]

I think this league is going to end up DNF. I have PES collecting dust and I may need to get MW3 if the coop is any good.

Yup

I want to play other games - havent finished Infamous 1 yet :lol - so dont be surprised if you dont see me often

[scott]

Manny, I wouldn't get rid of FIFA. At least for me, it has very high replay value and I end up playing it A TON from Jan-Jun.

Picked my MW3 copy this AM, so I probably won't be playing too much FIFA in the coming weeks... though I just started Season 3 of my Create-a-Pro with Bolton and my lineup looks like this:

GK:
LB: Marcelo - 83
CB: Cahill - 85
CB: Wheater - 81
RB: Ohunha - 79
CDM: Gago - 82
RM: M. Davies - 81
LM: Holden - 84 (Just got a $42M offer for him from Wolfsburg though)
CAM - Scott - 80 (my created Pro)
ST: Palochi - 83
ST: Hazard - 87

Won 2 straight EPL titles and got bounced in the Quarters of Champions League

YEah I saw the updates/notifications

" Biermonkey destroyed Manchester with Bolton" :lol

[scott]

Ha, yeah that was the Community Shield.

[scott]

I also acquired Omar Gonzalez just so he can rot away on the bench

[MannyIsGod]

ROFL

Omar sucks on that fucking game. I was playing against some asshole using RBNY the other night and Luke Rodgers made him his bitch. Seattle's so fast that when I play them I want to cry.

The Galaxy are terrible on that game because their BL is rated slow as shit (except Franklin - AJ is fast so its annoying they rate him slow) and AJ is so short that he never wins challenges in the air (this is a lot like reality). And then up front you have 3 great players surrounded by scrubs. I'll say this, EA nailed Chad Barret's inability to do anything right.

[MannyIsGod]

I don't know if I'll hang onto it or not. I'll give the league some more time though.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Battlefield 3 >> MW3

[scott]

Battlefield 3 >> MW3

I'll pick up BF3 when it's under $40 used. Still havent' finished Bad Company 2.

I do enjoy campaigns in these kinds of shooters in addition to multiplayer, so party of me needed to get MW3 is to finish (or continue) the story

[MannyIsGod]

I'm probably just going to redbox MW3 and beat the campaign.

I'm assuming you fuckers have all abandoned the league?

[MannyIsGod]

Oh, and I'm up to Div 7 and one game from Div 6 with a few to go. I've been getting way better.

EDIT Won my last Div 7 game 5-0 LOL. I'm reaching IM status TBH IMO

[lefty]

I'm probably just going to redbox MW3 and beat the campaign.

I'm assuming you fuckers have all abandoned the league?

Ive sent invites to Amused and Maxipad, but no reply

Oh well, Im the champ I guess

[MannyIsGod]

IM is in Skyrim land. I wouldn't expect him to respond lol.

[lefty]

IM is in Skyrim land. I wouldn't expect him to respond lol.

Ah ok :lol

[IronMaxipad]

I invited you lefty but i think you left your ps3 on.

[lefty]

I invited you lefty but i think you left your ps3 on.
Possible; I leave it on sometimes

[MannyIsGod]

Division five, bitches. I'm moving on up like a Jefferson.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Division five, bitches. I'm moving on up like a Jefferson.

Hopefully not Richard :lol

Add me "ItsWoweeZowee" would be nice to get a game going if you're free sometime.

[lefty]

EA servers suck

Fuck them

[IronMaxipad]

My Fathead finally came today it feels cheap as hell. :lol

[MannyIsGod]

[lefty]

Buuuuuuuuuuuuump


:lol
