Yes, you can still do swaps in the cup, but as it says in that rule, you must get the approval of the other captain first (vice if captain is inactive).

It's discouraged though

Right OK. It just wasn't very clear in the rules so was just checking .

Better?

Perfect .

Added a Blog page on site where i have put an Overview of each season, all the main tables etc can be found on defaults forum but the overview can be found here:

http://funkysnookerclanleague.weebly.com/news.html

Those with N/A means i either have no stats or that particular section wasn't around then

The deadline to send in default info has passed and the defaults panel will decide on the scores within the next few days. We hope to have them done by Friday. There are a large number this time (13), so be patient please.

The Cup Default was done quickly, since we need to ask for lineups soon.

_sting_ (3) vs (2) i_am_blessed

FSE win the Cup Semifinal 19-16 against Vikings and go through to the Cup Final. Vikings will go into the upcoming Plate Semifinals.

The remaining defaults are not finished. They'll be announced here tomorrow or Friday.

Defaults will most likely be locked in tonight. There is still discussion on about 4 or 5 of them, so default members have some time to respond.

There were unfortunately way too many defaults in this fixture set. I hope clans have made the necessary changes to their teams to avoid this in the upcoming sets...

I'm happy to discuss any defaults in private. Please do not start arguments on the forums!

I think the Easter holidays for many people probably contributed to the increase in defaults.

Let's hope so. Although the Easter holidays only accounts for about 4 days out of the 2 weeks (?).

not for anyone of school age who will have had 1 or maybe both of the weeks off, and its a common time for holidays!

Fair enough.
Knowing that before the season, we might have been able to avoid it with the scheduling (not sure). No more in the coming weeks then

Yeah someone should have noticed haha. ah well we know for future. Summer holidays will be different as its more spread out.

Yeah, and you can hardly avoid summer holidays...
I just didn't know that Easter was a long holiday. We planned for Christmas last season.

Easter is tricky though as different parts of the country have different weeks off over here. Result is a 3 week block where most people have the middle one off. Makes it all a bit complicated.

People are lazy... Its that simple, even I couldn't be bothered to sort stuff out over the bank holiday weekend and im a Captain. Its not like we have anything to play for though .
