HUFA call out thread (official fixture arranging thread for Heads up FA cup) Round 4 nearly over- sh

Phantom66

The Heads Up FA Cup draw has been made and the games are now under way.

This thread will be the official "hoofer" thread (credit to Mumsie) (or Who for? as in who's for a game) for calling out your opponent and arranging fixtures.

You don't have to use this, if you already know your opponent and have other contact details - or use PM or "findaplayer" / table chat that's all fine.

The main thing is to get the fixtures played!

In the event of disputes when fixtures are not played I will only go by what is on this thread as per the rules in the official results thread

Obviously the more fixtures posted here the more opportunities you will have for railing (if you want to).

If you are not in R1 you can also use it set up friendlies

I'm calling out anybody who fancies a best of 5 friendly. £1.05 speed table.

Anybody want a match?

waller02

What format will the actual matches have to be played? I hate hypers, would prefer speed. Is it something we can agree with each oppo or will there be a set format??

In my rule thread - which will take a while to compose- I will be proposing speed/turbo only with the home player being able to nominate which.

For the Semis and Final I think they should be speed.

As hopefully you know by now, the Heads Up FA Cup entries are closing soon. This thread will be the official "hoofer" thread (credit to Mumsie) (or Who for? as in who's for a game) for calling out your opponent and arranging fixtures. I am working on some rules/guidelines and so I will start an official rules, draw and confirmed results thread. You don't have to use this, if you already know your opponent and have other contact details - or use PM or "findaplayer" / table chat that's all fine. The main thing is to get the fixtures played! In the event of disputes when fixtures are not played I will only go by what is on this thread. More on that will be in the rules and results thread. Obviously the more fixtures posted here the more opportunities you will have for railing (if you want to). In the meantime - why not try and set up a few pre-season friendlies?

Hi Ger.

I have acquired the bingo machine ... In line with the lottery naming their ball macines I will call mine the Jimmy Riddler.

I am just hoping I dont do an Orford and break the machine.

I have also set up a spreadsheet with entries in it and so ill just have to enter the number drawn and the names will fill the fixtures.

I just need time to set up for the recording and uploading and then run the draw. That will probably be wed or thu before i can do that.

gerardirl

You know you can do this in excel.

Have the list of names in column A

In column B type rand() and control enter.

See this link on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYayFBg1JwA

Sort the names in order of coumn B and as she says batabing batabong! lol
