Hello users of undoubtedly the best board on bigfooty, you know me as your resident draft expert/ favourite mod/ funny guy/ winner of the 2021 'worst 18 team trade hypothetical' award, but away from all those accolades I spend a fair chunk of time on the SFA Board, a fantasy league centred around 'Qooty', a simulated football program!
The Sweet FA Tour of Bigfooty is aimed to promote the Sweet F.A to users that may interested, and I think it's perfect here!
What's Qooty?
Qooty is a football simulation program written by BigFooty's own Mobbenfuhrer, which allows a game of footy to be simulated and generated in text form. Basically, your username is entered into the program, along with 19 team-mates and an opposition of 20, and the program generates a game, with commentary and stats like this:

3 : 24.18 {C} - Pugsley does some crumbing and is away.
3 : 24.22 {CHF} - A long looping handpass to por_please_ya.
3 : 24.27 {CHF} - Handpass over the shoulder to sante.
3 : 24.3 {CHF} - A long looping handpass to MannumPower.
3 : 24.34 {CHF} - This will bring the house down if it goes through.
3 : 24.38 {CHF} - And the ball bounces through - unbelievable.
Allies : 9.6.60
South Australia : 9.3.57
3 : 24.43 {C} - That's a shocking bounce!.
3 : 24.51 {C} - ShaunDuggan hits the ground running.
3 : 24.55 {lHFF} - A wobbly old kick.
=====================================
SIREN SOUNDS FOR THE END OF QUARTER 3
Allies : 9.6.60
South Australia : 9.3.57
=====================================
The '3' signifies the quarter, the '24.55' is the time elapsed, and the {C} is the ground position. At the end of each game a game stats sheet is published so you can know just how good, or bad, you did, and rub it in your opponents face:

What is the SFA?
The Sweet Football Association is a board on BigFooty. 12 teams, which originally began mostly as club board representative teams but have long since hybridised and merged into teams of mixed loyalties, play two 16/17 game seasons every year, followed by finals, team and league awards presentations and much fun and banter. AFL allegiances are left at the door; people from different origins work together harmoniously - Port/Adelaide supporters, Fremantle/West Coast supporters, Collingwood/Carlton fans - they work and play together, and many people put in amazing efforts to keep the board entertained. It's all about fun and banter, based on the SFA team you play for, not the AFL team you support. The SFA began in 2001, and has now been running for 32 seasons. There is much history, and career stats are a treasured source of banter.
WHO ARE THE SWEET F.A CLUBS?

What do you need to do?
That's easy, if you're keen to be involved in this tour, simply respond with 'in' or some other way to show interest in this thread.
After that, you don't 'need' to do anything, although I strongly encourage you to get involved in some of the banter that goes on in the thread, within reason of course, things like "You're the worst full forward ever" or "I'm going to shirtfront you out there" are a way to start, but plenty of people enjoy posting memes, gifs or just emojis to get under their opponents skins
The matches are decided by a random text simulator called Qooty.
The matches play out entirely randomly. The simulator produces a text transcript of commentary, provides statistics, and maintains a season. Results are determined entirely by the random number generating functions of a computer.
SO what do I need you to do?
All I need from you is just to say that you're interested in playing by posting in this thread. We need 20 players. If we don't get this, any name can be entered into the program.
DO I have to do anything?
You will not need to do anything (except call your opponent names )
WHO wants to play a stupid fantasy game?
Over 260 people, each season play in just our league. We couldn't care less if you think it's childish .
If you wish to live vicariously through your username, or relive the glory days of your youth, come try it - it may be for you!
WHO are we playing?
You'll be playing a representative team from the Sweet F.A. Despite their myriad of achievements, their performance is as much at the mercy of the randomness of the sim as yours is.
What if I want more Qooty?
After the game on Sunday, if you enjoyed the week and want more, then please post your interest in this thread, and a captain or representative from a club that is searching for players will contact you. You will likely get several offers: it is entirely your choice as to which team you join. A new season will be starting in the next few weeks; it is an ideal time to join up.

So come and see what the fuss and fun is about, with Draft/ Trade board regulars such as Lore, Mofra, Snuffaluphagus, Pie 4 Life and Bastyy
The rules of bigfooty and the board still apply, so Bastyy is the only draft watcher you're allowed to mock for their rankings
