[Dec 12] Asymmetrical Friendlies Update available on more servers

[kikouno]

hi guys,

there's been a lot of talk about these Asymmetrical Friendlies ..... I'm all for it.....

before the update I've always had friends arranging friendlies on a daily basis which was frustrating and was seriously contemplating removing them from FB. These unwanted friendlies cost me a few games and the semi in the cup which I lost as I had to play with my reserves.... anyway.. since the asymmetrical friendlies update I don't have to worry about checking my fixtures to cancel friendlies and the game has become much more social between my group of friends.....

I'm still challenged to friendlies but my players don't suffer from this... my friends which arrange friendlies get all the pros and cons from doing so but that's their vice...not mine...

as a result we created a FB group which friendlies are announced ahead of time (typically 1 day ahead) and we all place bets on the predicted correct score.....

so example....

Friend 1 vs Friend 2 match at 20:00 tomorrow

Betting pool
Friend 1 prediction 3:1
Friend 2 prediction 0:2
Friend 3 prediction 2:2
Friend 4 prediction 1:2
Friend 5 prediction 3:2
and so on.....

the guy that guesses the correct score gets a free beer with the cost shared between the loosers

at the moment i've won 2 beers and have to share the cost for 5 beers... this is pretty good fun and source of good banter at our local watering hole

My only suggestion would be to make friendly matches completely free of stamina loss and injury free for both players...although I would be drinking quite a lot more though

Cheers
