Hello everyone,

As Pierabou pointed out to me, the managers still in the running for the Christmas Cup may have a problem next season in taking part in the official cups if they qualify (LDC - VFFA - Championship Cup)
A45 has been notified by me, but I haven't heard back yet.
I prefer to warn you in advance, it will be very complicated for us admins to help you in this case.

Thank you for your understanding

Potentially being deregistered from the LDC or the Cup for taking part in a forum tournament, that's a nice touch.

That's why I didn't sign up for this tournament
I hope that a solution will be found for those who have registered

@Socrate if A45 can't do it manually: please unsubscribe me from this cardboard cup which was only used to replace friendly matches for me.

We're walking on our heads on this game ...

Here is the list of people still in the running

thanks soso for the feedback.

2 questions :
do you know which of the 2 cups might be blown up if we stay at the Christmas tournament?
for the CdL, if ever there are afk clubs in the cup, will we be able to be manually repositioned in the place of this afk club?

No, I can't say for sure which cup will be chosen.
It has also been reported to me by Busy that the game might still consider all participants who have been engaged in this competition to be ultimately affected by this imbroglio given that it will still be ongoing ..
Just 2 away from deleting it... 🤬

normally that's not the case.
i don't know if it's still like that, but there was a time when you couldn't enter an unofficial cup if you were already involved in 2 cups (official or not).
once you'd been eliminated from one of the cups, it was OK to enter even if you hadn't been eliminated.

so I doubt it'll be a problem.

an idea to avoid taking any risks. delete the cup and re-create it manually with the 16 teams still qualified.
that way, everyone's happy and we take 0 risks.

the only snag is the work involved for the admins.

to complete the picture, if we abolish the cup and re-create it, we could even have won a round by moving the match between ronol and myself to tomorrow (like the others).
we're both available, i just have a friendly against snake to move. i'm sure he won't have a problem with that. which meant we were back in the 1/4 pro season.

Take advantage of the renowned Candlemas tournament.

The best thing to do is to abolish it. It's a shame to restrict the cups because some people have the opportunity to play more than one, and then you hear yourself because it creates gaps in the scheduling of matches
It has become complicated to organise tournaments because the deadlines are too tight. The cup should be abolished so that participants are not disadvantaged...

We will then be able to relaunch the cup next season with the clubs that qualified, which I believe will be 16

Socrate, what I'm proposing is that we scrap the cup and next season I'll contact the clubs that qualified for the 8th round

And then we resume the rest of the competition as normal

matches have been played imc.
we'll have to wait until Friday evening to find out who the 8 qualifiers are.

Pierabou: des matchs ont été joué imc.
il faudrait attendre vendredi soir pour connaitre les 8 qualifiés.

No problem in that case, we'll be playing the 8th again next season with a 16-club cup and we'll have to adapt to the situation as little as possible

iMcCarthy77: Pas de problème dans ce cas on rejoue les 8ie saison prochaine avec une coupe à 16 clubs faut s'adapter un minimum a la situation

let's wait and see what soso thinks.
in any case, Gauthier could be reinstated.

i'm against it,
we have to let it (the cup) finish normally
every manager involved knew it would be until the end of the season

Were the managers aware that this would replace competitions such as the LDC etc, I doubt it

michbou: je suis contre ,
faut la laissée (la coupe ) ce finir normalement
chaque manager engager savait que cela serait jusqu'à la fin de saison ; voir début de saison suivante que la fin arriverait

You really don't miss a beat !!!

Logically, as an admin you're supposed to help the community.

without me

Mdrr commitment when it suits you

Pierabou: merci soso.

du coup, pense a ré-intégrer gauthier ;)

That's kind chicken, but I'll accept not being there without any worries

gauthier80: C'est gentil poulet mais j'accepterai de ne pas y être sans aucun soucis ;)

so much the better, it'll be one less big opponent 🤣🤣🤣
more seriously, it won't cost anyone anything to put you back in. you might as well do it.

Here are the qualifiers.

So I'm going to delete the cup and you'll have to restart at 8

Thank you, the initial payout was 12 million 800k. Can you readjust the amount for the winner's prize?

Congratulations to those who qualified, it's always a trophy to add to the list of honours... I'll be in touch with the winners early next season..

iMcCarthy77: Merci le gain initial était de 12millions 800k tu pourras réajuster pour la récompense au vainqueur ?

Of course 👍🏾

Hi, is it possible to advance the tournament please, this kind of cut is not ouf we pedal so thank you in advance for your attention.

Manager to contact Is(-o-)m(-o-)rphismes

The official cups are on at the moment, so we'll have to wait a few days to avoid any delays in programming

Hi everyone, it would be nice to move forward and launch the end of the tournament as soon as possible, it's nice to want to fix the outgoing participants but in the end we should fix the remaining participants now, thank you for your understanding

I'll relaunch in a few moments

#coupe?cid=17790

Qualifiers can sign up for an official reminder of the prize list and a prize of 12.8m for the champion

iMcCarthy77: #coupe?cid=17790

Les qualifiés peuvent s'inscrire pour rappel officialisé au palmarès et dotation de 12,8m au champion

Ha, I signed up unintentionally, really sorry :s

Thanks again IMC 👍

thank you imc.

soso, do you think it will be possible to rearrange the order of the matches, or am i just being unreasonable?

If possible, we should include two inactive clubs and I'll launch the tournament

I can be inactive or only put in youngsters 😁 .
I'm not unhappy that I sacrificed myself to get the tournament off to a totally indifferent start

iMcCarthy77: Il faudrait si possible intégrer deux clubs inactifs et je lance le tournoi

The necessary steps have been taken
You can launch 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼

Thank you ☺️

Well done to Pierabou for winning the Christmas tournament!

Unfortunately, no Santa Claus for him, but the satisfaction of having won another competition on VF, congratulations Piera :)

Nicularo: Bravo à Pierabou pour avoir remporté le tournoi de Noël!!

Malheureusement, pas de Santa Claus pour lui, mais la satisfaction d'avoir gagné une compétition de plus sur VF, félicitations Piera :)

Thank you Nicu 😉

Yes, the line in the prize list is more than enough for me (there's a small 12m bonus with it).

Well done, great win

Well done for 3 months of cutting 😁

Well done pierrabou
