WINNER: Major League Soccer 2011 — FC Dallas

[flexmaster33]

A mistake with the goalie was caught in the Seattle-New York (March 19) game...turning that from a 2-2 tie to a 3-2 Red Bulls win. New field has been posted and standings are updated.

Also, I got through the March 25 match, but the other active/finished fields won't be done until I return from a trip to the beach this weekend. Expect a major update Monday including a first installment of player stats

[flexmaster33]

Standings are updated along with fresh scoreboard fields on the active set of games (last two weeks). I'll be sending out the April 6 & April 9 batch of games late tonight and will be working to get us back on pace with the real schedule over the next week or so.

Sorry, switched laptops at work and it threw my schedule for a loop.

Also, on the scoreboard fields starting with the April 2 set, goal-scorers will be denoted with a yellow circle around that player.

[flexmaster33]

Maps sent out for matches on April 6, April 9 and April 10...another batch going out in a few days to get us up to speed with this week(end)'s set or real matches.

[flexmaster33]

I'm looking to refresh our reserves list with an immediate opening for the forwards for the Chicago Fire...if you know of someone who would like in on this tourney, feel free to pass on the word.

[flexmaster33]

Timbers win!!!, Timbers win!!! Portland takes its home opener (real MLS) 4-2 over Chicago in a rockin' Jeld-Wyn field...what a blast!!!

[flexmaster33]

Standings and April 1-3 boxscores updated with several new matches gone final. Also sent out maps for the April 13 and 14 matches.

An official stance on our forfeit policy for this tourney...

If a player fails to join a game (with an opponent waiting), and the map drops (Conquer Club allows 2 weeks), then that map will be forfeit and the opposing player will gain a +1 for all dropped games.

I am actively recruiting a reserves list and will do my best to fill out rosters, but ultimately it is up to team captains to make sure they have a full line-up or be aware they are basically playing 2-on-3 until I can bring in someone to an open slot. Sorry, deadbeats are a pain, but it's only fair to declare a policy for those situations.

[Mass Miracle]

I will be a reserve if needed.

[flexmaster33]

Goalie maps for the April 16-17 set have gone out...positional maps will be going out later today/tonight.

That should get us back up to speed, so from here on out if the real MLS team has a game that day you should have your conquer club version waiting in your inbox as well

[flexmaster33]

Boxes for the April 6-10 set have been added

[flexmaster33]

Happy Easter all...my weekend got busier than expected...all matches through April 23 have been sent out...look for a major standings/stats/boxscore update on Monday

[reptile]

no prob, thanks

We all know you're doing your best, and with a tourney like this....

Good job though, it's been a blast so far!

[flexmaster33]

All right...that major update I was talking about has finally happened. Fresh standings are up along with a logjam of field maps...most of the April 16 and April 23 set has yet to go final...although most matches are close to it.

Congrats to FC Dallas, which is out to a 5-0-0 start and has yet to surrender a goal. The team is outscoring opponents by more than three goals per game. The Crown has three midfielders leading the league in scoring with 3 goals and 2 assists apiece.

Sporting Kansas City and New York are the other two teams yet to suffer a loss. San Jose's Arya leads all backliners with a +14 rating at the moment.

NOTE: Teams are seeing "star" players emerge (you'll see a star on the field map) with players at a +10 rating or higher gaining a +1 bonus in their match if they win the map. After the all-star game, the necessary ranking will move to a +20 for "star" status.

At midseason, we will be having an all-star game. The top-ranked players (+/-) at each position will make the East & West roster for this exhibition showdown.

Stat leaders for the league will be posted every couple weeks, but for a more in depth look at your lineup click the google doc link at the top of the stat leaders image. This is also where you'll find season schedule/results for each team. Dates in black are completed matches, red are ongoing matches and blue are future matches.

I'm heading to the beach for a long weekend, but hoping to get the April 30 matches sent out before I pack up If not, those will go out Monday morning.

I'm not having anyone join my midfield games for Houston at Toronto. Also why is the map you sent us New World but Toronto's midfield map on page one is listed as being Poker Club? Is this a reserve? Just wondering, thanks!

I need to update that map list...New World is correct. Petey is out of town for a few days and will join when he returns Saturday or Sunday I believe.

[flexmaster33]

standings and fields are updated...still working on overall stats and the May 7 field updates (hopefully late tonight those will go up).

[flexmaster33]

standings and fields are updated...positional maps for last weekend's matches (May 14-15) should be going out shortly.
