Having a good basketball team is all about having good communication between the players. One way in order to do this is to get your own team forum. This is where talkdep.com comes in. There are quite a few team forums in the United Kingdom section but many are inactive except for the all glorious London Goats and now, Portsmouth Sharks. I simply asked for it and it was created, sitting nicely on it's own in the UK 4th forums.
I've made quite a few threads in this forum since it was first made and had active participation in them from at least 2 of my players. But we needed something which was a bit more private. Something we could post lineups and tactics in without the prying eyes of the opposition. So I asked for another forum to be made inside ours. I asked for a Private Team Forum. I told all my players the password to this private forum. Now we have all the privacy we need to discuss how to beat those high valued human teams.

Portsmouth Sharks
www.cyberdunk.com
I took control of Portsmouth Sharks at the start of Season 6. My first job was to check out my team players. Some were active but I needed to make contact with them. So I organised a forum be built for the team so that they could speak. I also advertised that I needed new players so I ended up getting a few speaking of their wish to play for my team. But in the original lineup, there was one player who had the biggest salary and I thought he was draining the finances of the club. He had to go!
I did it subtlely. I offered him a new contract with a salary which was much the same as the others. He wasn't interested and he ended up going and joining his own team, the Ipswich Brotherhood (now the Argyle Gargoyles). I started getting players with better values and I weeded out the inactive players slowly.
The first guy who contacted me said he had been playing for the team the previous season. He wanted to help the club. He made the team logo and banner which I put on the team's homepage. The team was starting to look attractive which was sure to attract more players. Although this season looks set to be just like last season with us finishing about 15th, so long as we are not relegated then I'm sure next season we will do very well!

Cyberdunk - Dunkley and Mahone
www.cyberdunk.com
I've decided to postpone the purchase of a team until the start of next season. Dirk Dunkley's contract with Dnipropetrovsk Souths came to an end on the 31st day. The plan was for him to join the team I was going to purchase. I do not want him to join a completely random team like last time.
Majic Mahone is doing okay at his club, Ginasio Figueirense. They are currently 9th in thePortugese Division 4. They have had a good run of wins. Hopefully the top teams will lose some games so they can claw themselves near the 3 promotion places. Here's hoping for a good end to the season!

Cyberdunk Competitions
www.talkdep.com
You can enter various competitions for Cyberdunk by going on the Talkdep forums. One of those competitions is to produce a 5 minute YouTube vid about Cyberdunk. Your vid has to advertise Cyberdunk to the public. I made a short vid where it showcased the game and what you could do on it. It also incorporated real life basketball footage along with an Outhere Brothers soundtrack.
There is also a blogging contest. The best written blog of the month gets 400 CDP. I have noticed other competitions too, such as a trivia quiz to get Cyberdunk Points or ingame items. So if you want to see extra competitions you can join for Cyberdunk then goto www.talkdep.com and go in the Cyberdunk.com forums.

Cyberdunk - Season 5
www.cyberdunk.com
It didn't get off to a good start. Due to update difficulties, Days 2 and 3 had to be reset. So results played on those days didn't count. The decision to reset was made because some players could not update their tactics for those games on those days. Good news is an extra 5% on cyberpoints purchased on those days was given. Also the option to create a free extra player was on offer.
So with that and with the season properly underway, I created another player. I called him Majic Mahone and he hailed from the USA. I got him drafted into a Portugese Division 4 league. This obviously was not my first choice. I would have preferred one of the United Kingdom or USA leagues. I am hoping to be able to purchase my first basketball team this season. I know who I want to manage. It's a secret but let's just say they are in the one of the UK leagues.

Cyberdunk Team Forums
www.talkdep.com
Talkdep.com is a great way to tell the members of your team what matches they have coming up and who will be playing. Basically, Talkdep is a forum for the popular online game, Cyberdunk. Under the Team Chat section are all the different countries that have leagues in the game. For instance, if you clicked on the sub forum of United Kingdom, you would be taken to more sub forums of all the leagues there. There would be forums for every team in each league where players can discuss what is happening with their team. If it so happens that your team does not have a forum, you can always request that one be made for your team. It's a nice, useful addition to the game and makes it more interesting!

Cyberdunk - Si7 vs Tonyth
www.cyberdunk.com
Si7 and Tonyth are both contenders to be United Kingdom National Coach, but what makes this more interesting is that they are both neck and neck, battling it out for the Second League Championship with their respective teams. Tonyth owns Hartlepool Monkeys who are top of the Second league in the UK. But they have the same points, same amount of victories, and have lost just one game like their rivals just below them. The only thing that separates these teams is that the Monkeys have a better Points Average. si7, who owns Torquay Thunder knows how close this season has been and I'm sure he'd love to win the Second League and be United Kingdom coach. It's hotting up to be an interesting end to the season! Who knows what will happen?
