Thank you!

PS. Well done Andy...you did a great job with the Wildman plug-in!

Units do their bit for stagnant economy

The Units have bought the first of a new batch of defensive trainees, 21 year old Romanian prodigy Gavril Câmpeanu, for $3.4 million. Gavril is already a brilliant playmaker, formidable set-piece taker, and is set to become The Units first genuine multiskilled superstar. Gavril was injured during his league match on Sunday, but according to club doctors he will be fit in time to commence defence training when The Units switch from keeper training in a couple of weeks.

Whilst many of the Units critics have questioned the wisdom of spending $3.4 million on an injured 21-year old trainee, club management pointed out the cost is largely offset by a $900 gift from Kevin Rudd. Also, the Club is expecting a "stimulus package", which medical staff say may not help Gavril's injuries directly, but "should at least cheer him up a bit".

A sad and sorry day for Quinn Kings as More Fire! beats the Series V.164 favourites

The boys of More Fire! have outdone themselves once again, after beating the clear favourites of their Series to win today's match 2-1. This comes as a shock to the Kings, as their unprecedented loss this season means it is now unclear whether they will be automatically accepted into Division IV, for the fourth time. Meanwhile, the entire team of More Fire! were enjoying celebratory after-game drinks, after 'mooning' their way out of the Burning New arena, clearly satisfied with their result. But the win did not come without an inevitable loss, as one of their up and coming star midfielders, Fernando Flores twisted his ankle during the battle, having to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines. The management of More Fire! said that they would supply the boys with extra spirits during their training sessions from now on, and also provide extra budget for alternative training methods and medicines such as shiatsu, bear-wrestling and wife-carrying contests which have seemed to increase the strength, mobility and stamina of the players all-round resulting in today's spectacular win. The management of the Kings team were unavailable for comment, but a close source revealed that most of the boys had fallen quite ill after consuming a whole lot of Chinese custard buns the night before.

2002 Members For BRAP2

The Fans went wild as BRAP2 announced the 2000 member to join the club. The honour of being the 2000th member went to a die hard fan that happened to dressed up for the day. the 2001st member to join was a little dissapointed about missing out on the golden 2000th membership.

tough decision..!

A 5 million dollar bra...or a 5 million dollar player? it was a tough choice...but i think Mababies made a good decision with the addition of Niels Ebbe Petersen...the 5 million dollar player...who is doing magnificently in Mababies' midfield...which really needed some help!...

Introducing....The 6 million dollar man!

Finally i have a chance to introduce you all to my 6 million dollar man!!!...Gerdas Šabliauskas...he is the most recent member of mababies!...and my my my...he is a babe!...and definitely worth the 6 million dollars (thankyou Ben!)...he has done exceptionally well in the team...and is helping mababies in their new division...he is certainly one to keep an eye on..!

EARTH IN MOURNING! Bud announces retirement at season's end.

Units hero, Hattrick champion, Nuclear Cup leviathan and general worldwide megalegend Charlie "Bud" Tingwell has announced his retirement from Hattrick; this season will be his last.
Hattrick fans everywhere are torn between despairing at the thought of Bud's playing days being over, and rejoicing at the memory of the all-time Grand Master.
Bud has given everything to his beloved Units ever since he was part of the clubs original lineup many seasons ago. Bud said "sadly, my aging body is causing me to lose skills, and I will never again reach the spectacular high's [passable] of my younger days".
Up to one trillion fans are expected to converge on Nuclear Cup venues for the rest of the season to see Bud grace the field for the final few times; as Nuclear Cup V finishes, so will Bud's career.
One final send-off is planned, at the end of the season: the Charlie "Bud" Tingwell testimonial match, when the Units will take on Bud's favourite rivals the Green Loraxes in a friendly at the Royal Puros Arena. The occasion, when Bud will set foot on the Hattrick pitch for the very last time is expected to be histories largest party.
Obviously, Bud will then be inducted into the Units' hall of fame.

Global pressure on Gaeta FC

A recent intake of new fans has indicated no interest for the club of Gaeta FC (GFC) with no fans signing up this week. It appears that this may be a reflection of recent global economic events. A spokesperson for GFC said in a statement that they "would like to remind fans that the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) has nothing to do with Gaeta FC (GFC). GFC does not equal GFC. So when considering GFC do not let that affect your thoughts on GFC... did that make sense?"

"Wildman" Released! : For All Your Nuclear Cup Needs

It is a very exciting time for the Nuclear Cup. Today will mark the beginning of the modern era for the Nuclear Cup, as our plans for world domination take a giant step forward!

Our resident Nuclear Cup computer guru, Sugar Kick (aka 'Andy'), has been hard at work over the past several months developing the ultimate Nuclear Cup plug-in (dubbed "Wildman"), which provides an unprecedented Nuclear Cup experience!



WHAT DOES IT DO?

Basically, once the script is downloaded, it will provide a 'Nuclear Cup' tab at the top of your Hattrick page, which is amongst all the other tabs (eg. My Hattrick, My Club, World etc). Once you click on the tab it will provide all your Nuclear Cup needs! This includes:

- News (linked to from the Nuclear Cup blog)
- Fixture
- Standings
- Previous Champions
- Rules
- You can challenge other Nuclear Cup teams straight within Wildman!
- A link to Alltid, showing the Nuclear Cup teams.
- Chat! (you can chat with your other Nuclear Cup competitors!)


INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Note that you will need to use Firefox as your web browser.

All you need to do is install two things:

1. Install Greasemonkey first. Which you can get here.

2. Install the Wildman script. Which you can get here.

Just reload Firefox and have fun!



How do you update Wildman?

Since it is still early days there will no doubt be a couple of problems and further improvements to come. Therefore it is important you check every now and then if there are any updates available.

To do this, just go to the "Wildman Update" link on the side of the Wildman plugin, and it will check which version of Wildman update you have, and if there are new ones available.


What if I don't have access to a computer running Wildman?

Whilst we strongly recommend you download Wildman and give it a go. Of course if you are on a computer not running Firefox or Wildman (I can't imagine anyone wouldn't be?), you can still access all the information you require on the Nuclear Cup blog.


Feedback?

If you find any problems/bugs or if you have any ideas on how it could be improved, don't hesitate to contact Andy/Sugar Kick! Also, feel free to send Sugar Kick a Hattrick mail message congratulating him on such a stellar application, or even better, chat to him on the Nuclear Cup chat site!

Loraxes: We will be seen as Gods

The Green Loraxes made a statement today:

"After two consecutive Nuclear Cups we have decided that the Nuclear Cup is too easy for us to win the standard way. We have therefore decided to forfeit our first match against Bluthenthal da 3, and take a 0-5 goal handicap. We shall prove to the world that we are not just mere mortals, but Gods. We dedicate this handicap to the legendary Fips Hanus, who was always willing to provide the handicap the old fashioned way."

Despite this statement, sources close to Green Lorax management claim that the forfeit was in fact a mistake made whilst intoxicated during continuation of their celebrations of a second Nuclear Cup victory. However we are unable to confirm this at this time.
