Thanks alot for the support. Have to give credits to Morehouse and the players in the White Isle Legue and Svenska Ligan for advice before the game  |

aaaah.... no
read the game comments about the handicaps. The HE started with 10 on the pitch; they have 4 tacklers and 2 of them missed the game. |

So? if some one is lucky with dice is that not counted either? HCs are done in game so they are part of the luck/unluck a coach might have. it is still 62str up and 22 CR up. |

Each handicap is worth 5 TS ....but still a pretty upsetting loss for me. |

MYpoint was that this match was not the "winner". It wasnt a major upset in my opinion. Ten players and only two tacklers against a team of experienced zons doesnt make for a major upset. Go back and loot at the other games in this thread - they are some real upsets. |

well if you look at a match after certent ingame rolls are made it might not be an upset. Uupsets should be looked at from the look of the teams before the game starts.
If my rooky zons faced off vs the Eaters but I first turn killed 4 players and did the same next turn. looking at this it might be an upset I won after that but still people did not expect it before the game started.
It is the same here. after the HCs that was pretty mutch the best it could be for the zons it might not have bin an upset but before the game started and HCs where rolled it sure was.
The way you choose to look at things nothing is an upset. |

You don't have to be the 'winner' to get a trophy. I've have several made. 
Hands up all those who would have bet on Captainmalkor when they first saw the draw.
I'd consider it a giant kiling.

Yep. Only one person will get the Fumbbl Cup but quite a few will claim one of these.
How did you manage to get better looking? |

Blregh, should go to someone who won playing more than 10TS up... It's Giant killers, not someone-my-size killers!
In saying that, diddyboy did well  |

seeing as how revent is actually a damned good coach, and is capable of winning when he is down players, i'd say you're wrong...
revent was defeated by a very huge underdog....
to break it down in very basic mathematical terms...
diddyboy vs jesp....+6TS & +10 CR...
malkor vs revent... +62TS & +21 CR...
if you want to play the whole "handicaps = 5 TS" rule(which is bogus anyways, since a virus is not the same worth against every team)....
then diddyboy had a 14TS advantage over jesperius, and malkor still had a 42 TS deficit against revent...
and seriously, get off of the whole "oh it's amazons!" blah blah blah argument, because it's bogus...malkor has only two tacklers on his team, against a team that was littered with blodge....funny how you use that argument against revent, but not with malkor?...
despite only having 10 players on the field, revent still had the advantage, with team ability, and coaching ability, but luck favored malkor...
malkor's underdog win > diddyboy's "not the underdog" win
