Pre-season 9 thread

Counts enough for me.

Oho! A Vampire joke! Nice!

[Gandalf]

I'll consider bringing the Wanderers back if anyone overtakes Ernie's SPP total... Gertrude, Archimedes and PirlOc are currently #2 #3 and #4.

Also, yes! Season preview! Predictions! Make it so! (I'll finalize last season's predictions at some point over the upcoming long weekend)

Damn, I really hoped we'd seen the last of the Wanderers.

Well, when they come back the Rock-Knockers will also return. Unless I've built anything more murderous by then.

It's partly a morbid fascination... I fully expected at least 1 if not 2 or 3 of my star players to be killed/retired in season 7 but instead the world's greatest apothecary turned up for me. Whereas you were all probably right annoyed with it all my main emotion wasn't triumphalism but sheer bafflement as to how they kept on living. I almost want to see some of them go so that the luck approaches the mean and all will be right with the world again. Also, Alan.

Although also I want to reach some landmarks that weren't reached last time out... like 100TD for the team, one guy getting 50 passes & maybe even 1000 passing yards from one player... stuff like that. But not for a few seasons yet. Hopefully there will be a few high TV teams to go up against them too. If they get trashed to heck and are nowhere near winning stuff I don't think I'll mind either, they've won them both already :p

Anybody up for a friendly tonight or tomorrow (if I can - to confirm, but wife is ill and so likely to be in bed early)?

[Gandalf]

So your vampire can become un-injured? Nope!!

[lawastooshort]

No, I thought playing my humans would be fairer but didn't want to say just in case

[Gandalf]

I have no idea what policy is (if any) in this situation... just saying that personally I won't be playing your Vampires in a friendly right now for this reason.

Generally my Nurgle haven't been up for a friendly this week, because I'd rather the rest of the league plays & catches up a bit in the whole TV front. Also I should probably work towards completing my BBDB tasks for the week rather than playing games.

I personally didn't want to play your Nurgle this week because stodge.
