The 2nd USA Friendly Tournament
The rules
- Easy tackling only! This time, using default tackling will give a "yellow card" warning; do this a 2nd time during the tournament and you get a "red card" resulting in a 1 goal penalty in the match. If "hard" tackling is used, it counts as a "Straight red card". If a second "red card" is received during the tournament, it amounts to a 2 goal penalty and so on.
- Matches are held in the larger stadium of the two competitors. If there is no difference in stadium size, then the one with higher quality gets the match. If a match must be played in the smaller stadium due to error, a "yellow card" warning will be issued.
- During knockout rounds, a draw counts as a loss for the team with higher club rating (i.e. more established teams are expected to win)
- If you accept a friendly match with a club other than your assigned competitor, or fail to arrange/accept a friendly invitation, then it counts as a forfeit (loss) with the score 0-2. Teams can accept the forfeit as early as 8.5 hrs prior to upcoming match by posting their situation or sending me a pm after this deadline, so they may arrange an alternate friendly match for player experience.
-Accumulating 2 "red cards" or 5 "yellow cards" through the duration of a tournament will result in responsible club not being approved for the following season's friendly tournament

Thank you jemseed :-*
-
:( :( :( I'm sorry with all people in U.S I make a mistake I left normal on taclking on my last match, so I didn't realize that is still on normal to play agaisnt Atletico Santurce, So I know is a defeat for me, but it wasn't on purpose, it was cause this week I didn't pay much atetion to the game... it was not on purpose so please I ask for forgiviness for my team!!! I'm so sorry
-
it's okay perrito...it is an easy mistake to make...remember, 1st time is just a warning
;)
you weren't the only one either
-
If advance notification is given (> 2 days) that a team will intentionally forfeit the match, then the scoreline should be 1-0 (rather than 2-0) since this action allows the opponent to arrange a friendly match with another opponent.
Also, in the (hopefully) unlikely occasion that both teams fail to arrange a friendly match (without prior notification), then the scoreline will read 0-0 (-1) - (-1), with no points given.
Just a couple of possible scenarios I thought of...
;D
-
I aree brian, this is the best friend cup ever!!!
-
MAN hasn't replied to my invitation. I loose the benefits of a friendly!!

I am worried that MAN may have quit the tournament...he forfeited the last match and has yet to respond to my pm...
:(
However, perrito, your start match time is much later than ours (21:00) so please wait at least until 02:00 before arranging an alternate match (and let me know if you do that)...thanks
Please be aware that if any manager forfeits more than 2 matches (or more than one without explanation of any kind), he or she will not be invited next season
>:(
-
Copy, I'll wait this days no problem I hope MAN come to the tournament, let's wait ntil we see what happens!!! :-\
-
I invited bossaray as it was planned.
This am I saw an invitation from him.... his stadium is way smaller than mine. He has not accepted my invitation yet....
help!!

I would accept his invitation, but wait as long as you can, just in case
;)
this kind of thing should result in a warning ("yellow card")
this is a minor thing...you should've accepted the friendly fixture.
So, for this one the score has been recorded as 0-0 with 0 points awarded.
-
knockout round dates updated and accurate
-
friends is 03:43 am and I don't have any answer from MAN so I think is fair to avoid lose the friendly match to look for another rival to this match....
-
updated :)
well it seems that Espada and Lubricants arranged their 11 July friendly for 14 July
oops
:D
The only way I can figure to handle it will be to allow their match count as normal while their scheduled opponents will each win by forfeit on 14 July.
Too many forfeits this time around...cmon people!
-
Next match I "have to dance with te ugliest one of all" it's a very tough match!!!! don't know what to do, try my best!!! but Champione team is better!!! so good luck Brian.... umhhh nop better good luck to me cause I need it!!! :P
-
***updated***
-

-
Champ did you wrong about calculate my point? I was lucky to win 4 time but my point still 9. ???
but anyway big thanks to MotS to let's me win at first game. :-[

-
oops...fixed now

-
Hi Cotaro how are you? you make more points than I. So please don't go hard on me too... :D good luck my friend !!!!
-
Hi Perrito you rank is higher than me that's y I ask you to take a easy for me plus u e tired up with Brian, my team lost to Brian 4-0 last season.
So your team must be lot of better than my team and you r on top level too I'm just in C-Leage.
Brian did u see game between Alt. Santurice - Donmung? Alt San got 3 yelow card and 1 rad card. Fan-club said should he have a penity? And one more thing I wil play with Espada this Sunday at my home stadium and I did send invition to him and he already except it, then I was find out that his stadium is bigger than mine, is it ok for you or do u want us to switch to play at Espada home? I don't mind at all.
-
Hey Cotaro I don't know f we have to play or not, I'm a little bit confussed, so next match is free for 1 and 2 of each group. Then I have to play with Rockville Utd that is the first of B group? is like that? sorry sometimes i'm a little bit dizzy with this.
Anyway I have to play with lots of young players I got to play now qualification to WCL, league, custom cup and USA FRIENDLY CUP. So there are 4 competition, so my player are going to be tired soon :P so it's the time to take advantance in the competition...... How do you do with this Brian, you got also many competitions? 8)
-
This week for example I got match 16, 17, 18, and 19 of July, so is very hard a match everyday, so my team it's going to be very exhausted, :P but I have to try my best
-
Wow Perrito u have lots of match to play that's too meney. My team is Rockville Utd, if I can stay on 1st at group G2 and u still in 2nd at G1 we will play together at knockout round for sure. Anyway after friend match today leage also begin we still have match to play too. But seem like u will have to play lots of match than me, god speed to u man. I think we will play next week. 8)

***updated***
Knockout rounds begin next week!
Congratulations to group winners Mean Machine and Rockville Utd
;D
Please be aware that 1st and 2nd place teams from each group have the upcoming friendly fixture off, so feel free to arrange a friendly with another team. If teams would prefer to play a week early, that is fine, just let us know please.
I am very disappointed with MAN who apparently has left us for unknown reasons >:(
As a result, MAN will not be part of the tournament next season.
-
Cotaro want to make our match next week? or later? I mean in case we are tied we can play again? Do you Agree?? :-\
-
Cotaro want to make our match next week? or later? I mean in case we are tied we can play again? Do you Agree?? :-\
since your rating is higher than cotaro's, cotaro would "win" if it was a draw, so I think it would be hard to convince cotaro to play again in this case...
-
:)
Well Perrito if you want to play next week that is find for me, but if you want to wait 'till July 30 I'm okay too. Up to you bro..
Thanks Champ :)
-
it's all right so let's play next week cotaro, I've aleady send you the invitation, I understand tied it would be like a victoriy to you, but you have everything to win, My players will become very tired, so you can take advantence, I'll try my best... but it's hard :)
-
Perrito I won't take that adventence to you bro. Let's play on July 30 so your team can take some rest. 8)
-
***UPDATED***
Teams that failed to arrange a friendly have been disqualified, so Espada got a free pass this week and Don-muang gets one next week.
last season we had zero forfeits...I hope we can do better next season.
:(
Thanks to Lubricants and Bossaray managers for participating :) hope you join again next season
