thats such a great shame. im dissapointed, but life goes on.

I am very dissapointed. Maybe the Macedonians should recieve the full points

:(

Yeah im gutted especially as i was part of the first captains meeting, and i helped create 2 teams, but i guess the WC has gone the same way as the league. 1 guy deciding all. Im gutted we wont be finishing the season but we have no choice, we will stick together

1 guy deciding all.

i know what ya mean on that 1 m8

Actually, it is not reasonable to resign without giving some reason. Your decision but we all all play here and all want to just play the game.

To leave (and especially post snipes against G) without making a team statement is not on.

we have our reasons and i didn not open this thread so ppl can have a slanging match. Opened it so every wc team new we had left and dont want any arguments from it. If you want argue do it els were or will get this thread removed.

OK smoggs I hear you,

BUT

if your teamies are posting snipes (and they are) then you can't have you cake and eat it.

my post there was too any 1 including my team mates. Last thing wanted was anymore arguments in the forum there has been enough. So please no more nastyness from anyone

Smoggs,


1. If a team resigns then they owe it to everyone to make a statement why. No excuses, no replies are necessary, your team your decision. BUT you owe an explanation in my opinion.

2. If you decide to say nothing then do so. To post snipes and underhand remarks from your players is not acceptable.

3. After doing so (see 2 above) to ask for no 'nastyness' seems a little uncalled for.

OK Zix your right here are the events. I post these on my own.

We won against Macedonia fair and square. Then Zam complained about us using unregistered players. We read of this complaint the next day, When Graham decided by himself to deduct our points and them to Macedonia.

Complaint was of crazyman and boxycatt

Me and Smoggs msned Graham and explained to him the following:

1. I asked for the rule he mentioned as i had never seen it anywhere. I explained i was in the original formation of the league meeting and there was no such rule.
2. Crazyman is bauldy he just changed his name He said he couldnt fin the rule
3. He registered on the 14th before round started
4. Boxycatt registered day before she in smoggs niece and smoggs was there he could have played had we known the rule.
5. Msn- players in the past have left msn on accidently. If we deduct for this loads of teams would lose points.
6. We sat 1st come on this is meant to be fun. When the celts had an issue i advocated they play again for the betterment of the league as it was meant to be fun.


After given Graham all these points he said he could find link so he would not deduct points. Me and smoggs thanked him and left it at that, we were it was zam who complained but we didnt want to make an issue of it

next day Graham post again and say hes deucting points. It was then the team were disgusted at his blatant abuse of power and resigned. I tried contacting him on numerous occasions today without any reply.

When the WC was created it was not created by graham on his own we all we part of it. His initial post was about inter aussie tournament. Me and Alan got together and created the England and Celts teams. Thats whe it began. We had inital formation meating with me,graham,tia,jot and placer. We were all willing to contribute towards stats etc btu he was more enthuisastic so agreed he was the best person for it.

At no time during the captains meeting this rule WAS NEVER discussed. We agreed all decsions would be captains decsions. A they were in the Canada case and the cobra moving team case. If Graham had added/amended rules on his own (which should have been a captains decision) he should created a new thread to let the captains know

Now on this Graham made his own decsion. Even though i felt that no decision should be made as we did no wrong.
