    Hi these might be questions for Walesy but rather than bother him thought some other regular posters might be able to help me.
    Some of the Qs might make me sound dumb but oh well, maybe I have been using the pseudonym Homer J for too long!!

    (1) How do you put pictures of donuts/millhouse and the like within your TS posts? I've tried but couldn't figure it out.

    (2) Looking to next year (am very nearly over this year SC wise!!) - how do you get into the TS leagues for Supercoach? Do you have to be invited or finish in a certain possie (ie top 5000) or can whoever join. I am already a donor for this year.

    Cheers, sorry to post these random questions in the middle of a SC weekend but I'm bored and the footy hasn't started for today yet!! :D

    My random question is, what happened to everyone's avatar?

    Did the -walesy avatar stealing account permanently steal everyone's avatar this time?

    Happy to answer these mate.

    1. To put those characters into post do the following

    :milhouse:
    :donut:
    :relton:
    :sheep:
    :mrgreen:
    :spud:

    Cant remember if there are any more or not.


    2A. Once Supercoach opens there will be a thread where people will create supercoach leagues and post the code. They were first in best dressed this year (not sure if that will change or not). Once league was filled someone would create new one and post that and then so on.

    There are a few invite only leagues, but they are probably hard to get into to. If your a donor we have sneaky $$$ leagues which u can enter if you like, just gotta keep a eye out in the forums. (need to be a donor first)

    Hope that kinda helps. Im sure Walsey/Lucas or someone like that can explain the leagues bit more.

    Thanks for the help guys.

    Another dumb question, is mrgreen that little green smiley icon, does it mean anything?! Wouldn't want to use it in the wrong context!!!

    Sorry for sounding like such a dumb ass - have really got into TS this year though and would like to know all the insider "secrets"

    CHEERS AGAIN :D

    @skt
    Thanks mate, adblockplus was the cause of the missing avatars! Got it sorted now.

    Think mrgreen is just an extra smiley face mate. Icons don't work in the forum though. Some leagues are restricted to high finishers, but there are still plenty that aren't

    Just gave it a whirl in the R17 discussion on the main page.

    It works!

    Hey Homer, you've opened the emotional floodgates old son. I'm pretty new to SC, but totally addicted and only found this awesome site through trawling around for info a couple of months ago.
    I need help I will admit. Need a 2012 mentor preferably out of the top echelon supercoachers. Someone to bounce off....first squads are vital and I can't seem to get it right.
    Happy also to donor, have Walesy's lovechild, whatever. If anyone willing to take me on as friend, willing to chat 'offline' re 2012 planning.
    In return you get hilarious insights of the onionesque variety...enough to make you cry.

    Hey TheOnion,

    Am willing to chat regarding 2012 planning - although not one of the elite here on TS, i have managed to get my team into the top 6k so far this year, which I feel isn't bad for my 2nd year playing SC.

    Anyway, i've sent a friend request if you're interested in helping each other out with 2012 planning.

    Good to see some unity between the Crows and Power fans in Adelaide.

    But guys, can I suggest you two don't meet up at the Ramsgate Hotel for a beer whilst planning next year's squads :p

    Hey Onion,

    There are a bunch of people like myself who will be on here over the off-season just itching to discuss 2012 preparation with you. Some of us will have tasted success during 2011 and some will have finished outside of T10,000 but still be looking for ways to improve.

    Personally I have improved from outisde of T5000 last year to this year just outside of T500, mostly due to listening to and participating in good healthy discussion on this site.

    So just stick around here during the summer months and you'll find more than enough discussion to whet your appetite in terms of planning for 2012.

    Why is pinging not currently allowed?

    Was there ever a time when it was allowed?

    Will there ever be a time when it will be allowed again?

    SKT, you are of course correct.

    Excellent call Hornsy.

    Thanks all. Didn't realise TS was so strong off season so will be keen to listen and learn a la Jason's fantastic improvement.
    Easty; the annual Ramsgate brawl is booked. Both SA teams are shite this year so unlikely to be anything other than a game of pool and a couple of light beers. Its all we deserve.
    Hope Eagles win flag and hope H Shaw does something else stupid to de-rail the Magpie juggernaut. Wishful thinking I know.
     
  20. Heath and Maxie got pinged didn't they?
