Anyone else seen the problem? It seems a bit f*cked at the moment, so i guess that means our friendlies wont be played today http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Here is a response from the games creator on the Hattrick Battrick Fed.


Quote[/b] ] Sorry about my silence. As Waterhoose says, I've been a tad busy trying to get everything sorted out.

I hope to have the site back up again around 2pm today.

After that I hope to alleviate any further problems prior to the matches on Friday.

All matches that had started had to be replayed I'm afraid.

All matches that hadn't been played have been started off and you should be able to watch them as normal if they have not finished.

[Museshrimper]

So that means a match i am supposed to have played today will still play today? Hope so http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Thanks for that

[Barmy Army]

Seems like they didn't think that the amount of people who want to watch their games, would want to watch their games.

Good thing to learn now rather than in the middle of the season.

[Barmy Army]

It's back and Birri is 188-7 off of 44 overs

[Museshrimper]

Got 318-5 after my 50 overs http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
Top scorer got 109, then a 83 and another 50 got me a big score

Problem now is that my bowling attack suck http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

I love this bit from the commentary between ShrimperZone C.C and Gambero C.C

Huge six! That man in the crowd plucked the ball right out from infront of the nice ladys face, he might get lucky tonight!

So far i am multiviewing Pearlstars and General Stars.

Any other games happening??

Let me know your team's name!! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif

[Museshrimper]

I'm Southend, watch my bowling attack get tonked http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif they are 60-0 off 9.5 at the moment, so my 318 doesnt look too great

[Bob Cratchitt]

Ta I have added you as well. I am sitting in the garden with the wifi laptop getting some rays whilst drinking Pimms - Is that the right way to watch cricket? http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[The General]

I can feel a collapse coming ...

http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif

However, one of my bowlers got 4 wickets from 4 balls after they opposition started well and were all out within 30 odd overs and got 170 ish. Need about 30 from the remaining 14 overs to win ...

Bloke im playing is in my league so will be interesting to see how it goes.

Kev

[Museshrimper]

Going decently now, got the two openers out quickly and they are falling behind the rate. They need another 170 something from 25 overs with 8 wickets remaining, should win from here

[Barmy Army]

I need 55 to win off of 20 overs with 8 wickets remaining, should be done.

[The General]

24 off 11 overs with 4 wickets left. As long as Lawlor keeps on strike, i should be OK ...

[Museshrimper]

I'm watching yours now TG, as mine is nowhere near finishing. 19 needed of 9 overs, you should do it

[The General]

Tomlinson's 4 off 20 isn't helping matters. Supposed to be a destructive batter ...

[Museshrimper]

Two 4s from Lawlor has just pretty much won you the game http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[The General]

2 4's in a row from Lawlor. http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[The General]

Beat this over ...

32.6 W Sheppard to Halls
caught in two minds, Halls lobs the ball straight back into Sheppard's hands
32.5 W Sheppard to Tortoishell
A simple catch for 2nd slip and he's gone. That really was a terrible shot, there was no need to go chasing that ball.
32.4 W Sheppard to Glass
Huge shout for LBW and it's given! I'm not convinced there wasn't a nick there, dubious decision in my opinion.
32.3 W Sheppard to Birkett
a big lunge forward and the ball catches the edge before striking the pad and its an easy catch for Clarkson
32.2 . Sheppard to Birkett
forward, smacked straight to wide mid wicket fielder
32.1 . Sheppard to Birkett
another slow delivery, had a fell at it, beaten

http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[The General]

Winner!

http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[Museshrimper]

We're screwing it up, they need 107 off 11 overs but have 8 wickets left, been a good friendly for the batters though the bowlers need drastic improvement

[Barmy Army]

Just finished and I won http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Museshrimper]

Won by 18 runs http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[MrB]

Trounced by Bob C, going to be a long season. My 3 tailenders managed no runs from 4 balls between them!

Anyone want a friendly this week? Challenge ShrimperZone CC.....

[Museshrimper]

I'll give you a friendly, but it says i cant challenge you right now at the moment

[MrB]

Probably from tomorrow I guess.

[Bob Cratchitt]

I am not sure it beats you Kev but sure matches what your guy did

45.5 W Keegan to Piper
A swing and a miss, clean bowled.
45.4 . Keegan to Piper
forward, smacked back down the pitch, Keegan doing well to get a hand to it and stop a certain boundary
45.3 W Keegan to Singh
nipped back, went for the pull, fine edge as Scholes and Keegan appeals like one man, the Umpire sending him back to the changerooms
45.2 W Keegan to Keeling
Great reaction catch by Scholes, taking ball flicked down leg side at full stretch.
45.1 W Keegan to Challinor
HOWZAT, as the dull thud of the batmans pad is heard.

And yes that over ended up a maiden as well.

[The General]

Looking at the forum on BT, it seems it's happened to a few people. Mine its still the best though altho BC's run's it close. Plus mine weren't to tailenders ...

http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[Bob Cratchitt]

And mine was not one mf my top bolwers but one of my all rounders, yep i have 3 of those!!

[The General]

Well mine was only a mediorce bowler! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

I tried challenging you, BC, but it says i cant, you already got one set-up or do you have to wait a couple of days?!

[Bob Cratchitt]

That is a shame that you have such a bad bowler.

It seems that way matey, so when it becomes clear then be ready to play you.
