Subject: II.2

I haven't been able to log on for the past few days and check tactics, so I'm happy I somehow won against the Rainbow Unicorns anyway.

It seems like my team may have a small chance this season. Changing the name of my arena should help. Good luck to everyone!

Good luck in I.1. Based on the rankings, it seems like you may even have a shot at the playoffs (this message shouldn't jinx you since I don't compete against you in this league).

I'm just glad I won 1 of the first 2 games of the season. I'm missing both backup goalies, my top 3 defensemen, and 5 of my top 10 forwards.

I think I have a decent chance, too. I'm hoping for another top 4 finish this season.

Hello, it would be very helpful if anyone with good players, 18 and under (as well as over 18 for the u20 and senior national teams), could post those players to the database. It would also help if scouted players who were previously posted could be updated, especially if they were not posted since a previous season. Your support for the USA national teams will be very much appreciated.

Spankers dropped, which means the season is looking a lot easier now.

Inf1d3lz dropped too - that bodes well for all the active teams avoiding automatic relegation. The only real question about the top 8 will be whether Itero Genesis can rebound and pick up the last playoff spot or whether one of the darkhorse teams around 90 can pull a spot.

Luckily for me, my first match this season against the Spankers will their first match after folding.

A shocking win against the Crackers. Maybe I have a chance at first if I exhaust my team before the playoffs start.

The first quarter of the regular season is complete. The bad news: I'm in 7th, which is nowhere near where I want to be. The good news: I have already played every team in the top 8 (including Spankers when he was active) except for Flying Refrigerators, which means I have a pretty easy schedule for the second quarter of the season.

I've also played every (probable) top 8 team except for Flying Regrigerators and the Bruisers (who I play Wednesday and Monday).

What's up with Itero Genesis this season? They seem to have had a difficult schedule so far, but I thought they would at least be fighting for a playoff spot.

I know, right? They're barely avoiding relegation. Which is funny, because he just upset me in the National Cup. So I have no idea what's going on there...

I seem to have made it to the round of 16 in the national cup with a lucky win over the Sparhawks (even though I'm running a camp right now!). I guess that I'm that last representative left from II.2 and one of the last five representatives from tier II. I can probably only hope to look forward to finding out which team I will lose to in the next round though.

I also seem to have forgotten to adjust my tactics for today, which leaves me with active forchecking against a team that usually uses offense, though I will also waste energy by using high game importance.

I'm very happy with the win over the Rainbow Unicorns today. Hopefully I caught them by surprise by ending camp one day early and picking the right tactics. Hopefully I can hold onto third or maybe even steal second over the remainder of the season, though I still don't expect to get past the second round in the playoffs. I only expect two losses + maybe one or two upset losses in the last 17 games.

It seems that Itero Genesis has been conserving a lot of energy and will be in the process of making a comeback.

The very high match importance is what surprised me more than anything. I was expecting either normal or high. Oh well, the loss isn't that big of a deal, I figured I would finish in fourth this season anyway, and I DOUBT I'll drop enough games to put me in fifth or sixth.

Of course, you never know with PPM. Anything can happen.

I figured this was the most important and winnable game for ensuring that I can take third. If only I could have done so well against the Dire Wolves...

A lot of teams seem to be conspiring to keep the eighth seed open for teams like the Spitfires and Fanny Pack Crew.
