So, after a large number of OTFers had vented their feelings about not being able to ‘get into’ a game on their own, we decided to have a crack at an online game to bring that spark back to our FM lives.
We attempted to start it on Monday night, but due to Tomo (Mardy Bum) inexplicably kicking everyone every five minutes for no reason () we gave up for the night and agreed to meet back again on Tuesday and Bainy (Jambo) kindly agreed to host.
The number of players dropped from 10 to 8 thanks to Tomo’s inability to keep anyone happy and interested for more than ten minutes – I feel sorry for his girlfriend! But, tbf, this was probably a good thing, as I expect ten would’ve been too many.
The English Premiership was the venue of choice for this mammoth challenge and players were allowed to pick whoever they wanted as their side to manage. Some bizarre mind game tactics followed, with players choosing bottom dwellers over Champions League qualifiers. But each to their own I suppose.
We set no specific ‘game nights’ as everyone had different commitments and preferences, so it was decided that as long as Bainy (host) and 3 others wanted to play, they could carry on without the others players consent – therefore, hopefully, making it a nice fast flowing game (how wrong could we be!)
So Tuesday night at 8pm, with 7 of the players present, Bainy handed out the IP and we chose our sides – this is where everyone ended up:
Pickles – Newcastle United
Mardy Bum – Sunderland
Arjen Robben – West Ham United
Jambo – Tottenham Hotspur (host)
xnellyrx – Arsenal
CasFan – Derby County
Shergar – Portsmouth
Tilla – Aston Villa
Let the fun begin!
