I have been expecting CT's for about 7 seasons.... now they are coming..and why? I even told the community that is the only way to take me down.... (ask STO - we traded messages for months as I told him how to plot my downfall in order to try and keep him interested in the game!)

BUT - nice thing for me now is there is a bigger chunk of 2nd tier teams and all have to worry about one another... so yes - CT me and be a hero for a day or do what Wolph does and get other teams to do the dirty work and then watch them lose games they should've won after.

I only have to finish top 2 or even top 4 to qualify for the play-offs... ok so finishing 3rd and 4th gives me 2 conf away games and then I still have to win 2 from 3 in the finals without HCA but at that stage who cares.... the odd loss here and there is expected.

Quick question - can you show me a game in the last x seasons where i laid down my best 5 in a regular league match OR in a Great 8 playoff - hell even a final game? I've dominated whilst getting maximum training minutes.... looks like this season I'll be forced to lay down my best five and lose training minutes during some weeks....jeez.... maybe if you guys improve some more I'll even TIE and deliberately tank a game because Im scared of what trying and losing will do for my future enthusiasm!!!

Ramen Kings gets to prove he is a champ by knocking out a Div.II rival. I'm betting on the Kings, so don't lose, otherwise you'll make a fool of us both

I think MiBuRo is almost a bot... I am not sure that he's still actually actively managing.

Yeah man, I'm happy with my run. Better than last season (I got Stunners in the 2nd round!).
Next week: unfortunately, I'd say nearly every game is cut 'n' dried.
'Cept the Shibuya/zenita gangs game - could be a scorcher!

I guess if FCB tries he can push Stunners, or if 3A wakes up he could surprise Sharman...I guess will find out next week..

Sharman,

I am honored that you found me a worthy enough opponent to play normal against me. However, I need to stay focused on my list of goals for this season and the long term. As you can see winning the cup and beating Sharman or not on that list at them moment. Maybe next week, or next season, or the season after that, or the season after that, or...... You get the picture. I had some decent players in the game but based on the score there is clearly still a large margin between you and I. Well, since I am now officially out of the cup I can truely focus on league. I'll be sure to bring my 'A' list players to our next match-up. I'm sure we all know the outcome of that game.

And to YC's point, I definately have a huge filter on the advice given by Wolph. I guess that goes for most everyone. Just the amount of filtering required varies.

Edit: Oh, forgot one thing. Good Luck the rest of the way and in B3. I am pulling for you, at least in B3.
