This has absolutely nothing to do with you at all Cicjose, but I do hope you learn something from it. If you do learn even just 1 thing then my job is complete.
I might set up competition against you Shaggy. Don't want you to take all the glory :P

You could always do a beginners guide Fletch. Mine is going to be rather slightly advanced really. :P Will take a while but I am starting it today for this Friday's SOD.

LOL :D I can concentrate on Youths and players up to 29yo, and you can concentrate on players above that? :P

Seriously, good idea. All beginners to FTP, pay attention to the Messiah :)

The first part is going to be about scouting and pitch selection. I will have it up in a few hours, as I am just taking all the screen shots that I will need. Well most of them now. Hoping that it will be rather visually able to assist those people well enough as I'm not sure if they will all be non-member feature screenshots but it should be good enough anyway.

The first lesson is now edited into the second post. Please read it and give your thoughts/feedback on how it has been done. :)

Cicjose

i like it the scouting i haven't taken a lot of notice as half my games this year have been against bots

but i am hoping this information can lead me up the standings for SOD and to try and become a champion T20 team.

Awesome write up Shaggy - impressive stuff.

I've got a very tough SOD match this Friday, and I'm missing my strike weapon due to Nat duties. I have tinkered with my orders and think I've got my opposition covered ... what do you think?


8-6 Suited

LOL Reverse line up? That is gold. I wonder how that would actually work lol But I am not sure you should be throwing it as you have a very big chance mate. :x

PowerBug

Shaggy, do you have any tips on what to call, Heads or Tails? I always pick heads.

Please tell me you are not being serious with that question

The toss is completely random so it doesn't matter what you really pick. You are either going to win or loss. :p

Reverse line up LOL. I am going to try it and see what happens. I can't win as I only have four bowlers (next best is average summary). I don't want to promote anyway as I would get smashed in div2.

8-6 Suited

Ahh well. Your choice I suppose but Div 2 = more money. Regardless of getting smashed, I know what I would want to do. :p

Why oh why couldn't you play me this week ::)

Excellent work Shaggy ;)

8-6 Suited

Thanks mate. Was pretty rough so I hope that it is fine for people to understand.

MajorLazer

Looks great Shaggy. :)

Got a tough match this Friday so will use this. Problem is my only bowlers are M or FS. :(
