Ugh...this is a *real* gamemaster fail. Yes, the Canadian matches I included are going to be played on the weekend of May 25/26. I'm afraid it's a bit too late to change the matches, so it will just have to a be a gameweek extended over two weeks :-/

Apologies to everyone (except for milivella, of course)

Common sense suggests not to go against MH in the Canadian matches. Then again, the Revs are *really* bad. Atletico it is, then...

Sorry with the delay in posting the results. We should be back on a
regular schedule next week.

Tier 1
----
MH 3-0 Futbolmetrix (Atletico - Forge)
The Doctor 1-2 Jesper Lauridsen (New York Red Bulls - New York City)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
6 3 7 4 3 3 The Doctor
5 4 6 5 1 4 MH
1 4 1 8 -7 4 Futbolmetrix

Quickie comment: maybe I should have waited a bit more to post the
results...



Tier 2
----
Mark 1-2 milivella (Philadelphia Union - New England Revolution)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
12 4 8 2 6 4 milivella
2 3 1 3 -2 2 Werner Pichler
1 3 2 4 -2 3 Mark

Quickie comment: I *definitely* should have waited a bit longer to post
the results. Also, this three-team tier thingie is terrible, and we
should declare this whole season null and void.
(milivella is guaranteed promotion to Tier 1 with three match days to
spare).


Tier 3
----
Jesus Petry 3-0 Blueshirt (Philadelphia Union - New England
Revolution)
The Doctor 1-2 Jesper Lauridsen (New York Red Bulls - New York City)


Pts M GF GA GD Picks Team
8 4 7 4 3 4 Jesper Lauridsen
5 4 5 4 1 4 Jesus Petry
2 3 2 5 -3 3 Blueshirt

Still quite tight with the unbalanced schedule.

I'm starting to worry about our esteemed gamemaster.

See? When I *accidentally* assigned milivella the wrong team, it really
was an accident, sometimes I even do the same thing to myself!
(4-D chess something something...)

Here is the updated Tier 1 table:

Tier 1

MH 0-3 Futbolmetrix (Forge - Atletico)

I think I picked Forge and you picked Atletico Ottawa.

Silly season in the CPL, I guess. The traditionally stronger teams have
been preoccupied with the Canadian championships - like Forge, who
knocked off CF Montreal, and Cavalry who only lost to the Whitecaps on
away goals. Also had to play in the Concacaf champions league. But this
year Atletico might be for real.

I thought a one-off pretend mistake to try and make it look as if you
weren't picking on milivella seemed a bit easy to see through. Making
sure you make the mistake more than once, and at least once to
yourself...this is more like it! :-)
