Haha, which to blame autocorrect, my dyslexia or that I'm writing with my left hand?

that is actually kind of you to do that. Because of just two mistakes I made in the last year and a half I made it almost impossible for us to win. Metallica will close the gap and they won't look back. One good thing is we have the best team we have ever had since we started from day one. And Plan on making even better.

But Metallica will be champs again and rightfully so they are the best team top to bottom. I'll never make the mistakes I made ever again. So although I can hope for this year I'm planning on next year where we will do better.

Congrats there Mr T for the amount of points you have and the place. You are very smart and picked up quickly on how to run a clan. You are doing an amazing job. I wish I had you or Bish on my team. What a difference you would make.

all my best
Michael

Actually the odds are against us, as many clans will simply not play us. They keep playing BB with the same results over and over again with BB winning. How can they keep playing the same players against each other and expecting different results?

We would have to win 85% to 90% of our challenges, or BB make some dreadful mistakes for us to win this year, in my opinion. Perhaps a combination of both would help us.

Metallica has a higher winning percentage. My team just plays as many challenges as they can. wycombie has 120 challenges at one point, Metallica now has about what we have. And the difference is only 90 points. Metallica plays the same players and wins all or most of the time.

I did the match and went through all Metallica's challenges with them winning over 90 percent of them in my opinion you can do the math now and see what your winning is. To get a 90 point lead we have played over 1235 gross points. It means we play a lot. We earn it. And we should play all the teams that want to play it's the reason we are here.

WE have a TON of losses coming up. We have already lost more challenges and games then any other team. My team loses. To almost everyone. You guys don't lose that much. Which I have no problem with. You guys just have the best team so you are going to win. My team is about to hit a bad stretch and very soon.

Metallica will enjoy a win this year. Especially with that team. I'd be the first to congratulate them. Oh I counted 18 more clans play your team than mine. Do the math on how many points I could have if I was able to play them. Think of how many points you guys get from those clans.

I have chess friends as leaders upset with me and I don't know why. It has nothing to do with chess. It's more a personality thing which I can't figure out.

I got a few clans back but still to many that don't play us for the same reason they don't play you. And we never get big challenges. Not anymore. I'm out. I really don't like the forums.

Bish had some good Idea's it's a shame he won't talk about them. Change can't happen unless everyone talks.

I think Trevor had some good ideas to. Change is good. Hope they look into it more.

cheers.

@Michael Martin,

I don't see how you can count yourself out before they year is out. Even with Clans you say are not playing you anymore. You have the same clans playing you over and over again with the same match ups expecting different results. This well beyond my understanding. You still have more Clan actually playing you than play us, the paper work shows the results.

Lets not get into a situation where clans are rewarded for playing less games!!!!

Trev and Bish already did their part in my opinion by starting new Clans. I believe Trev is in 3rd spot right now, I didn't think that would happen so soon to be quite honest about it.

I know for a FACT Metallica doesn't play the same players all the time as they have acquired 2 new players recently. Also the same players aren't always matched up although there could be a few exceptions.

@The-only-Mr-T its great that finally a clan is fighting it out with the Chairboys for 3rd place, we were never going to compete with the top 2 clans and often 3rd so bring it on!

@Pondarable,

As of 56 minutes ago BB was 846 Net points and Metallica were 812 Net Points a difference of 34 points, so there actually was some change there. 😉

Appears 3rd place could be very interesting finish. Of course we are only half way through the year and much can happen yet.
