CricSim: Pakistan Premier League(PPL) {Own your team - Auction thread}

[The Legend]

I got this idea from IPL . There isn't any Premier league for Pakistan but now it is there by the Legend.
Rules are just simple and like IPL:
There will be 6 Team . Each team will be given to the user on the basis of their request and the Runs he has scored(Posts). After this we will have a sign-up thread in which those who are willing to play PPL can join and than they will be selected by the Team owners. There will be no bidding. If you will post first and you have runs more than the other user who is willing to own the same team than the user having more runs will have the team.
Teams are:Lahore Mughals
Karanchi Champions
Rawalpindi Blasters
Punjab Panthers
Peshawar Monsters

Team names can be changed by the owners later.
The first team is Lahore Mughals
You can start requesting for this team.
The Legend
President
PPL Sign-Ups Open

[The Legend]

One more thing i want to add that please don't PM me and ask for the team. Co-owners should not be more than 2

[Straight Bat]

I suggest you enter a team called Peshawar Panthers.


Edit, Also, you should have started this off in the cricket forum to get more exposure as not everyone ventures down here

[The Legend]

I'll ask the mods to move this thread.

[The Legend]

Thanks to mods for moving this thread. I am sure after the good response this will become Official.

[Straight Bat]

How long does the requesting period last?

24 hours for each team or is it just whenever someone comes in and asks for a team?

[The Legend]

See the requesting period will last until the team will be owned to someone. I would have preferred the points system so that we can Bid but its sad that no point system. If mods will alow me than i can install a point system. I am a oroginal vbulletin customer

[W63L35]

How about Gujranwala Gujjars?

[The Blazer]

Guys, cricsim is a dos based text cricket simulation. It's pretty basic, but a joy for all the statisticians.

And oh, I want the Lahore team.

[Hash]

I think it should be like the Pentangular......provincial based.

Punjab Tigers
Sindh Sharks
Pakhtoonkhwa Panthers
Balochistan Bulls
Federal Areas Fallujas

[The Legend]

How about Gujranwala Gujjars?

Thanks! Added.

It would be complete on the simulator. I will put the custom values for each squad.
About the team if no body else will request than you can own this. We will have Sign-Ups after all the team will given to the owners.

[iZeeshan]

I got dibs on the Karachi team!

And Champions is a homosexual name by my standards. Can we go with the Karachi Kaminas?

[The Blazer]

Hash and Zeeshan, I think the respective owners can change the name of their teams as they please.

So it's confirmed? I get my paws on the Lahore franchise?

[The Blazer]

W saab, do you wanna sticky this for a while? Will get more attention that way.

[W63L35]

done. let me know when you want me to un-stick it.

[iZeeshan]

Oh sounds brilliant! I have the Karachi team right?

Because I want the team. OK? I WANT IT.

I don't MIG, or Oxy, or Merc bidding on it. They have like 5030948309 posts and it wouldn't be fair.

Yeah exactly- Let's do it on a first come, first served basis please. I don't want any of the PP mammoths coming along and ousting us from our positions!

[iZeeshan]

Btw, doesn't IPL have 8 teams?

And also, I tried to organize this way back. Didn't really work out. But I hope this one does.

[The Blazer]

Right, the Lahore franchise has been snapped up by your's truly and the Karachi franchise has gone to Zeeshan. We can now sit back and watch the rest of this fascinating drama unravel.

P.S. Zeeshan, your team is going to crash and burn. Muahahahahahaha.

[Straight Bat]

I don't mind who takes charge of it but I wana play for Pekhawar

[bdchamp20]

I'll bid for the Gujjars(are foreign owners allowed?), I know I probably wont win it with my apalling number of post but its worth a shot

[The Blazer]

Originally Posted by iZeeshan Btw, doesn't IPL have 8 teams?

Mmm, I think six teams is fine.

Think about it, we need at the minimum 11 players per franchise. So that's 66 members already!!

[iZeeshan]

HAAHAHAHHAHAHA Funny. We'll see who gets crashed, who gets burned, and who else gets NUCLEAR-ED.

[The Blazer]

Oooh, epiphany. If we can't make up the squads with enough PP'ers, then we should be allowed to get real international players. Go through a proper bidding system or something; 3 international players per team.

[The Blazer]

Listen, I will be keeping my boys on a strict goat diet. By the time they come out onto the field, all they will see is blood.

[iZeeshan]

Goats? What a joke. My boys are on a strict ALLIGATOR diet. All they will see are lili-pads.

Wait no...that's bad...

On a more serious note, I think we should have only 4 teams, because getting 66 members maybe hard. Or 5. yeah 5 is a good number. Sorry, Gujranwala.

And I ADORE the idea of international players. That's awesome. And we'll set the limit depending how many members want to sign up. Proly 4 or 5.

[The Blazer]

What if we make the members sign up? Beat them with sticks or something.

[Straight Bat]

What responsibilities do you need to be a team leader then? I want to know that before I decide wheather to volunteer to run one or not

[iZeeshan]

Originally Posted by The Blazer What if we make the members sign up? Beat them with sticks or something.

Sticks? Make blood-thirsty goats run after them!



SB, don't worry about it. Just do it!

[Straight Bat]

Originally Posted by iZeeshan Sticks? Make blood-thirsty goats run after them! SB, don't worry about it. Just do it!

I don't wana sign up for it and then end up not enjoying the role and ruin it for people on my team aswell. Thats my only worry

[iZeeshan]

Ah rite ok. Well, we'll have to wait for the legend.

Btw, 5 teams right?

[Plasma]

My dibs on Punjab Tigers!

they are mine! Mine!!

[iZeeshan]

Where's Easa? I am sure he'd like this.

[The Blazer]

Originally Posted by iZeeshan Where's Easa? I am sure he'd like this.

I'll alert the mug if he comes onto MSN.

[161]

Originally Posted by W63L35 How about Gujranwala Gujjars?

Hmmn .. how about just the Sialkot Stallions to cove that (my ) area.

[iZeeshan]

I think we wanna keep it to 5 teams though, right?

And I don't think we should rip off official names. We need original stuff like the Karachi Kaminas!

[The Blazer]

Yeah, original names all the way.

I'll think of one for my Lahore franchise!

[Luton Bad Boy]

Lahore Lions

Pindi Panthers

Sialkot Sharks

Karachi Kops

Fierce Faisalabad

[Legendary_Sage]

Guys why dont you add Multan Team as well...
Multan Speedesters
Cuz Waqar,Zahid,Abdul Rauf,Nadeem Iqbal,Shabbir are from multan ...
I would like to take multan team.. if possible

[Saqlain_doosra]

Can we have team called "Attock attackers"

[The Blazer]

Ai hai. Soon we will have a million and one teams.

[Easa]

I get Rawalpindi

ps - you guys were right, i love this stuff

[Legendary_Sage]

What about my multan team...
Still waiting

[iZeeshan]

Ok if I may take charge (15%), I'd officially say that we should/will have FIVE TEAMS.

Karachi, Lahore, Punjab, Rawalpindi, Multan/Peshawar

Also, whoever owns a franchise, should be able to switch their hometown to any town they want. For example, if I own Karachi, I can change it to Attock?

Or should we not do that?

[The Blazer]

Not sure, let's all pitch our ideas forward and then let Legend decide when he comes back. It is his thing after all.

[iZeeshan]

Of course. But I am restless for this thing to start.

Btw, potential team owners, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Karachi have been throned by The Blazer, Easa, and iZeeshan. Beware.

Btw, what team does the Legend have?

[iZeeshan]

Also, I really like the team name Mughals...but make that go with Multan.

Wah! What a ZABARDAST naam.

[Legendary_Sage]

Originally Posted by iZeeshan Also, I really like the team name Mughals...but make that go with Multan. Wah! What a ZABARDAST naam.

Yes mughals of swing and pace.wow like it

[iZeeshan]

So let's see, what idea have we got so far? Just so the legend doesn't have to run up and down.

1. Five teams.
2. International players.

Nething elsE?

[The Blazer]

Each franchise can import a batch of cheerleaders?

[The Blazer]

Alright, I've got my franchise name:

The *** Lahore Lightning Leopards ***

Get in.

[The Blazer]

Oh, and I'm slightly deviating from the topic here, but wouldn't it be awesome if we did this on ICC?

Would get a better visual representation that way.

(I can feel a ICL v IPL type battle is about to start.)

[iZeeshan]

Originally Posted by The Blazer Each franchise can import a batch of cheerleaders?

I got dibs on the LA Lakers cheerleaders. Those batch of girls...

[The Blazer]

How many franchises left to be bought?

[iZeeshan]

Well if there are 5, then 2 to go I believe.

We really need the Legend to come online.

[The Blazer]

He hails from India- My bets are that he's fast asleep right now.

[Mohsin]

Is THIS PARTICULAR thread just for the Lahore team? Will there be another thread for another team and can we 'reserve' a team until the thread comes up?

[The Blazer]

No no no, this thread is for picking franchises.

Quick, nab one of the remaining teams!

[Mohsin]

Dammit! Rawalpindi and Punjab gone!
Which ones are left????????

Quickly dammit!!

[The Blazer]

Has Punjab been taken? There's also Peshawar.

[Mohsin]

Oh theres 2 teams (Lahore and Punjab) Punjab for me please!

[Inswinger]

Lahore for me, please!!!

[The Blazer]

Originally Posted by Inswinger Lahore for me, please!!!

You can still play for Lahore if you want!

[Inswinger]

Originally Posted by The Blazer I've taken Lahore. You can still play for Lahore if you want!

sure.....

[Mohsin]

Originally Posted by The Blazer I've taken Lahore. You can still play for Lahore if you want!

oooooooo i sense a Bangalore type problem here!!

Didn't the legend say that a team can have co-owners? Maybe u could work together?

[Inswinger]

Yeah, can't we be co-owners?????????

[Easa]

Originally Posted by Inswinger Yeah, can't we be co-owners?????????

Yeah, I think Blaze would be cool with that.

One little snag though: training for the team won't be off the well known, publicized type. In fact, I'm not sure if you can call wrestling with wild, live snakes while stabbing and de-spleening a myriad of squealing goats as "training". So you might differ a little. And you better be all right with that, because O.B. and fellow beastologists have some weird tendencies.

Dont worry Im an Afridi fan too

[The Blazer]

Yeah, you can be a co-owner dude.

However, I think co-owners should be allowed to play in the XI as well, just to make it that bit fairer for them.

[The Blazer]

Look, the Lightning Leopards now have a mascot. Say hello to Munga Dinga.

You epileptic mentalist!!

Just keep your boys away from mine, yeah? Thing are bound to get ugly otherwise.

[Straight Bat]

What are the list of teams and who are the General Managers of it?

So far all I'm clear with is:


*** Lahore Lightning Leopards *** -------- The Blazer



Can Izee or anyone else in the know update the list with full set of teams and the owners names next to the ones which have been taken?

[iZeeshan]

Blaze, team owners, are like captains. WE PLAY and we ANNIHILATE!

I still think we should go with 5 teams. I really don't think we can get even 40 members!

iZeeshan - Karachi
Blazer- Lahore
Easa - Rawalpindi

[The Blazer]

Add Mohsin- He's taken Punjab.

[Inswinger]

We're coming to get you!!!

[The Blazer]

Loving it bro!

Zeeshan and Easa, get yours done!

[The Blazer]

Oh, and someone needs to edit the title of the thread. It's misleading.

[AarifAfridi]

Karachi fighters
