Wow, i am honestly surprised that no one bought up. Great for me, but I feel that a few good buys by the hippos or be high might've pushed the odds in their favor.


4/30/2012 Total Wagadugu Hippopotamuses cash reserves: $ -1 949


I would have but I don't think there are any players that cheap. :P Now the bets are all done I can lay my cards on the table. I went all in this season chasing the bot promotion. I probably have fallen short but still have 2 shots. I could beat Kilrtom or all the 22-0 teams could win so there is still a chance that you get rid of me. If not, then next season I will have to rebuild my bank balance so it is a great chance for someone else to have a shot in season 20, cause it wont be me. Season 21 though, my trainees will be strong, my bankbalance high and so watchout world!!!!!

Hippo, I think unfortunately you've maybe gone about it a little bit the "wrong way".

I personally like your team, its nice and balanced and you have depth all the way through.
the issue is, teams that win and promote are generally those with the STRONGEST starting 5.
so having 35k starters and 15k bench is not as good as having 50k starters and 5k bench.

That's what i've observed from BB.

happy to be proven wrong mate.

Ranga, why you would you CT the game before the playoffs to move up one spot?

Seems like a easy way to lose 1st round.....

You are probably right. If I tank next season, save a bundle, hopefully end up 7th while training my 3 future stars for the whole season then before relegation time I should be able to pick up a team that will easily win relegation, be competitive season 21 and maybe give me a shot. Still having the best record in the entire of d3 until game 21 of the season isn't a bad achievement to put in my trophy cabinet along with my top 16 cup finish. With luck I can beat the Hooks tonight & then just need some miracle to beat Kilrtom.

Going to be hard to decide who to cut. Most of my players have NT experience, good skills and will be very hard to find again. Still, has to be done if I can't get it done this season.

Good luck everyone.
