    Welcome CricSimmers to Season 12!

    We have an exciting season ahead of us starting today with five matches across different competitions between the Crusaders and Sticky Wickets franchises. The season is scheduled to finish in the last week of July, so we've got a five month season ahead. It's effectively as long as a real sporting season now!

    If you haven't picked up a club yet, you're not too late; you can sign for a team at any point throughout the season. With the addition of a Third XI competition and an increased chance of injury overall, clubs will always be on the lookout for new and returning players to bolster their squads. Head over to the Free Agent Negotiations thread linked below and state your interest to play.

    We have a number of additions and changes for Season 12; some new ideas and some returning ones from a lost era. The most notable of these is the return of ball-by-ball updates for five day cricket - something that was lost to us in the great hard drive crash of Season 10. You'll be able to follow your side's progress during their match and comment on it inside the match thread. A full list of changes is listed below.

    - Return of living simming for First Class and Second Class cricket
    - Return of regular articles from the CricSim Herald
    - Return of a full daily schedule of matches at season launch
    - An official Bannerman Shield tipping competition with a vCash prize
    - A new competition - the Callum-Burkey Cup - acting as a third grade feeder competition to the ALC
    - Clearer and freer player eligibility rules for club and provincial cricket, giving sides greater depth
    - An overhaul of the way player abilities are calculated with a renewed focused on a realistic development progression system
    - A more complex and realistic system of dealing with home ground advantage
    - An overhaul of provincial second XI cricket with a renewed focus on player development
    - A full season of one day provincial cricket with List A status for the first time ever
    - The entry of Celtic Provinces into provincial second XI cricket with an eye on Season 13 promotion
    - The development of the CribbSim Limited Overs Cricket Simulator to make it less rigid
    - Senor, from Rleague Grandstand

    Wonderful. I'd like to thank Robert. And of course God. Please join us in the Lord's prayer.

    Our father who art in heaven
    Hallowed be thy name
    Thy simmage come, thy will be done
    On Cricsim as it is in heaven
    Give us this day our daily simmage
    And forgive us our golden ducks and no balls
    As we forgive those stupid cunts who run us out on 99. Fucking hate those cunts.
    And lead us not into the short and wide
    But deliver us just short of a good length
    For thine is the hard to play
    The pitch, the bounce
    Forever and ever.
    Cricsim.

    Should definitely leave this to Emm.
