Still says it's closed for updates for me

Edit: It's opened now but as i dont have my password yet i cant go on, anyone able to yet?

I don't think any have been sent out yet. We could be in for a long wait, but at least we have HT matches to "watch"

 

[SUFC Employee]

I didn't get a team

 

[Grayson]

Anyone got their pass yet? This is getting kinda annoying, hopefully I'll have it by the morning

 

[MrB]

Loads of people at teh BDF have theirs but nothing for me

 

[Barmy Army]

I'm not getting one this evening apparently as England is very full

 

[Barmy Army]

Just got mine after talking to one of the developers.

My team's not great

 

[Barmy Army]

Museshrimper and Birri are both in my league

 

[The General]

I've got one as well.

 

[Bob Cratchitt]

So did I

Is it me or does this site completely appear to be a Hattrick rip off. I am not saying this is a bad thing but the similarities are unbelievable.

Oh well welcome world to Gambero C.C. I am in Series V.2

 

[The General]

Im in V.9 and my team looks useless, but haven't looked at the rest of my league yet. Few good players but got 2 weeks to get some traning going and all that kinda stuff ...

 

[MrB]

Mine appeared overnight. Looks like it'll be a non working morning!

They've made no secret of the fact that they've used hattrick as a base. Surely the name is enough!

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

I can't seem to log on this morning. Anyone else getting the same problem?

 

[MrB]

No.

 

[Barmy Army]

Got a proficient batsmen from the youth squad!

Mate as we both know having a similar name does not mean practically everything about the games website is a duplicate of Hattrick.

Anyway I am not complaining just does seems abit wierd, you know with intellectual property and all that.

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

I'm still getting a HTTP 500 Internal Server Error when I try and log onto my team.

Anyone got any idea why?

I'm sure they must have spoken to the HT gods first, otherwise it could be a very short lived game!

Have now had a gander at my squad, everything is dross except for this chap:

Masimo Saifiullah - 19 yo, BT Rating=12,774
RH Batsman, RM Bowler, respectable form, Healthy
A steady player with mediocre leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: woeful Wicket Keeping: strong
Batting: feeble Concentration: woeful
Bowling: proficient Consistency: competent
Fielding: abysmal

Typical that my best bowler is also my best wicket keeper!

I have absolutely no batsmen

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

I still can't get in!

I did have a quick look last night and my team has only 4 players better than mediocre - 2 of whom are keepers!

I do however have quite a few all-rounders meaning that I bat down to number ten!

 

[The General]

This 2 blokes look half useful with the ball ...

Dale Akram - 21 yo, BT Rating=6,088
LH Batsman, LH Spin Bowler, respectable form, Healthy
A steady player with proficient leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: useless
Batting: useless Concentration: feeble
Bowling: proficient Consistency: mediocre
Fielding: worthless

Roland Tomlinson - 23 yo, BT Rating=6,860
RH Batsman, RFM Bowler, respectable form, Healthy
A destructive player with worthless leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: woeful Wicket Keeping: competent
Batting: abysmal Concentration: mediocre
Bowling: proficient Consistency: woeful
Fielding: feeble

And this is my batter ...

Jerome Grabben - 19 yo, BT Rating=7,928
RH Batsman, RF Bowler, respectable form, Healthy
A attacking player with worthless leadership skills and worthless experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: strong Concentration: abysmal
Bowling: mediocre Consistency: woeful
Fielding: mediocre

Haven't really got a wicketkeeper, 3 of them are 'competent' (one of which is the bowler above) so will have to invest in one of these little hamsters.
