OK everybody, the Sensible World Cup 2011 is closed!

Following Dimetrodon s last post please can you let me know if you think any of your matches have been missed off the results set?
www.sensiblesoccer.de/index.php?site=turniere_ergebnisse tid=1578


However, unless anything very strange is found the winner is already decided:

Congratulations to our World Cup champions: BOLIVIA !! The Bolivian flag has not often been seen next to the world cup, but in the land of SWOS, anything is possible!!


It comes as no surprise that Bolivia were guided to the top of our table by the mighty Coolio_Jack !!
Congratulations to you sir, a well deserved victory achieved with one of the less powerful teams in the game.


I d like to thank you all very much for taking part in this competition, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! Altogether we manaed 374 matches, which is pretty good going. I will send out a post with a more detailed review when I have a moment in the next day or two.

The world cup will return in 2012! But I have another tournament in the planning phase that I would like to invite you all to have a look at very soon.....

Organize this tournament has been a good idea , but it would have been much better if the players that have not reached the minumum of the matches played was deleted ....but was summer and many player was in holiday ;)

Thanks my friends.
About the deleting of players - I have thought about it but decided that, hey, this is supposed to be a fun cup and I don t think its fun to delete people. Also even it someone hasn t played many games at least they have played. And I never mentioned it during the competition either!
All in all, I am happy this way, I hope it is not a problem for anyone.

Sensible World Cup Awards!!

1st place - Coolio_Jack as you all know - BOLIVIA

CJ was the master once again.

2nd place - Lestat - CROATIA
Lestat took the great attack of Croatia and overcame the weak defence to finish a strong second.

3rd place - Blazej_Bdg - GEORGIA
It was a good fight, but Georgia just couldn t quite keep up the pace with the top two.


And now for some other sub-awards:

Best Points-Per-Game (point won / matches played)
1 Lemonheadiv 2.231
2 Coolio_Jack 2.227
3 Lestat 1.977
(who know what could have happened if Lemonheadiv had been able to play more games..!)

Most Goals Scored
1 Lestat 147
2 Coolio_Jack 120
3 ULG81 102
(Boksic and Suker must have got loads of goals....!)

Most Goals Conceded
1 ULG81 101
2 Lestat 99
3 Deyna84 91
(impressive stuff from ULG81 who must have been involved in some amazing matches 102-101 goals in total!)

On the subject of which, the match of the tournament could be any of these:
ULG81 8 - 4 Lestat
Manuel 5 - 5 Lestat
Pallister 4 - 6 Ariander
Or of course whichever you enjoyed the most yourselves!

Overall I think we had a good balance to the matches. For example, Coolio_Jack lost to Seth_River; Seth_River lost to Sox; Sox lost to Dimetrodon; Dimetrodon lost to Nanto. Of course the best players won in the end, but I think the draw did help to balance things up a bit for those of us less talented on the Swos pitch!!

Thanks, but really, its a shame Lemon couldnt finish his games (Lemon, slap yourself around a bit with a large trout please), i do believe he had a good chance of overtaking no1 spot.

Thank you Jonathan for organizing this huge league (thanks for the stats too)!

I did my best to play as much as I could, anyway it wouldn t have been easy to catch Bolivia.

Well deserved victory by Coolio.

Hold on! A late call - four matches were missed off! Apologies to all, but I missed the update to Lemonheadiv s post for his games with Alpino and Coolio...
This means an extra 9 points for Lemon and 3 for Coolio. (Sorry Alpino mate, no extras for you).

And I ve spotted a couple of matches in the results I hadn t saved correctly to...the organisation has let itself down at the end here, sorry!

This doesn t change the winners, but I have updated the flags list now, and stats too.
