Another Game we can play - this time it's cricket!

Posted by Alex Holowczak

A friend who I think is about to set up a user account here made me aware of a Stick Cricket game. The idea is to basically play a 10 over cricket innings (batting). Once every five days, you need to take 10 minutes out to play an innings. There are 6 rounds, each round lasting 5 days. Whoever scores the most points in each round wins.

It's very difficult, I am particularly bad at it.

I would like to set up an ArmchairGM League on it, it needs at least 4 people to be able to start it. Comment if you'd like to be in it. You'd need to register for the site, but apart from that, that's all you need to do, you'll need to join a League, which I can set up in a few moments.

But is anybody interested? We already have 2 willing combattants?

http://stickcricket.foxsports.com.au/ is the website, if you're interested.

It is practically a baseball slogging game. Apart from the ball bounces. Are you interested in playing?

Excellent, I'll set up the League over the next hour, since we have enough people. I'll post signup info when I set it up.

Okay, the League is set up. The League number is 112439. The League name if you prefer is ArmchairGM. The password, is armchair. Once you have registered, and joined the League, then cilck "All Star Slog", pick a team, pick 10 overs, and then play the game. When you're done, click play again, and your score will be saved in the League. You get as many goes as you like for this 5 days.

This may be the first time the word cricket, used as a sports term, was paired with an exclaimation point.

I've gotten to the point that I'm so busy I've cut all fantasy sports out of my life except football since that only takes a day a week. If I can't afford time for baseball, I don't see a spot opening up for cricket. Sorry!

Fair enough then. :) Even though this takes 10 minutes every 5 days?

I'd most likely pay attention to it for the first two times and then forget about it. (see fantasy hockey) Which bodes well for others (see fantasy hockey) but isn't really worth my initial 20 minutes =)
