Delphi Cup

Delphi Cup (+60 seasons)

Name: Delphi Cup Origin: Sverige Current season: s.63 - LXII (Opening soon) URL (current season): http://alturl.com/mh4vt Reigning Champion: ARRUG BK Reigning Lucky Loser: Ulleberg IK Last updated: 2024-09-24

Background and Info

Delphi Forums or Delphikonferensen as it's called in Swedish was actually more or less the official forum/s for Hattrick back in the day. When we left Passagen.se (because it wasn't possible to moderate) we came here - and some of us never left, even when Hattrick got an internal forum up and running.

Delphikonferensen vibrated with life and activity back then and a lot of private tournaments (based on friendly games) was created, administrated and run within the forums from global seasons 10 to 30 maybe.

Some will argue that Delphi Cup is one of the oldest (still running) private tournaments, based on friendly games, that exists on Hattrick - and who am I to contradict that.

Delphi Cup was created back in season 27 and the first round was played on November 1st 2005 - and since then we just continued each and every season after that. From season ~30 Delphi Cup is the only cup left being administrated via Delphikonferensen

Since we use friendly games and not the "new and modern" tournaments HT created, you actually need to have been kicked out of Hattricks internal cup system before you can join the fun of Delphi Cup. Depending on the number of participants we start HT-weeek 9 or 10 and continue for the remaining of the HT season.

All teams get the same amount of matches in both the group stages as well as in the finals whether it's a match for the gold or a match for placements 9-10. The only time this isn't true is when we are 14 or 18 teams, then we only have two Jumbo Teams left for the Semi Finals day so they get one match less.

Maybe it's also best to mention about the Delphi Jumbo Champion, that winning isn't everything. The Champion here is actually the one losing the last game between the two worst teams of the season.

Everything from registration, draw (often live), presentation of next round, results, tables, statistics and reminders about team A challenging team B, happens on Delphikonferensen.

Delphi Cup was also a part of Penguin Champions League that unfortunately only ran for one season.

Legend
√ - Booked and played
X - Usually game booked with wrong rules (normal/cup), played in the wrong arena/region or similar. The result stands as long as we have a winner. Otherwise a coin flip decides
WO - Walkover. One team to blame (0-5)
WO² - Double walkover. Both teams to blame (0-0)
WTF - Wrong Team Fail. Match booked and played but not with own team (people from pub, local rugby team etc.. as a result of a faulty line-up)
OT - Overtime
SO - Shoot-out

1.) n/a - not applicable, often due to multiple walkovers by one ore more teams.
2.) * - season 3 Lucky Loser was decided in a 'fantasy game' to avoid further walkovers when a team booked another game by mistake.
Olsfors made 4 goals in their game and Crow made none in theirs
