===================== Sand League is Complete ===================== It looks like Nellie Wanderers has become denoc75 Real Mos Eisley - Watto JunkDealer WhataBunchofMuppets! - Raurie Bye ThiKu Rapids - Kurt Thiessen ChrisSuttonsSlippers - Fraser McInnes Bally Boyz CF - Denis 215 Pararaiders - shane brakenridge FC Newark - Bob Grundfest denoc75 - Dennis O'Connor Pararaiders still needs to join the All Rocks League.
Am laying the foundations for the All Rocks 2014 Draft Dodgers web presence. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/ Small Rocks and Very Small Rocks done. Will look at getting Sand and Dust done before August 1st.
I guess today, August 1st, is the official draft start date for the rest of you; even though Small Rocks has been ticking over for a few days now. I have most of the groundwork done for the new All Rocks Super League 2014 version, but still have a few blanks to fill in with Big Soccer ids. I'm thinking I might need to dive off the Barrier Reef to get them.
I didn't like the provisional All Rocks Draft Dodgers name, so will stick to the trademarked All Rocks Super League; we're just changing the format for 2014 and beyond. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/
Missing Links: ParraRaiders = Mal (smash ya out) Ben Giveth & Benteke = Jimellow Central Park Rangers = lolshorts ...lucky I live on the Barrier Reef
Anyone who wants to tackle me and a few other silly people I have accumulated over the years in an "Open League" (not with your draft team), let me know and I will PM you a code (some I have emailed already)
I guess lolshorts is having a long, loud laugh that no-one can hear - 'lolshorts was last seen: Mar 15, 2013'.
Plantyboy has replaced lolshorts and I've got him to register for both Dust and All rocks leagues on FPL site
Sweet FA Cup I will set up the All Rocks Cup.... aka Sweet FA Cup shortly. It will be run as a Head to Head League on FPL site It will include all 32 Rocks Teams but to keep it fair it will start in Week 5, so that all teams play each other once (31 weeks - GW 5- 35) , and the Finals will consist of the top 8 teams in knockout ( Gw's 36,37 & 38). I will PM you all the code post haste...
With Eddie finally joining us, the All Rocks League is locked with all 32 teams present and correct. Now the fun begins!

Eddie is trying to play with two teams: http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/2325817/event-history/1/ http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/189417/event-history/1/ The teams are (currently) the same but the line-ups different. Both were registered in both leagues, I suspended one of them from each but it appears they were different. http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/189417/event-history/1/ was the first one registered in Very Small Rocks although http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/2325817/event-history/1/ has more history. Eddie..... what's going on?
I used to post Gameweek scores in the Fantasy Forum but it didn't seem like many people were reading them, so I'll post them here; where at least the thread gets a bump. =========== Gameweek 1 =========== WhataBunchofMuppets! 97 ThiKu Rapids 81 Aviators 79 ColdDogSoup FC 77 VegasVirgins 76 Ben Giveth & Benteke 73 Not-a-Cisse 73 Sasha Juniors 72 blechs_dawgs 71 FC St. Pauli 67 Pittsadelphia 67 Kopite Juniors 65 Island Hopping 63 HazMat+9 63 Top Shelf 63 FC Weymouth 62 Keysersoze Wanderers 61 868warriors 60 Bally Boyz CF 60 denoc75 59 Real Mos Eisley 57 ChrisSuttonsSlippers 57 Yellowcake Phantoms 57 SSC Snoopy 53 Awesenal 52 BiggerBoat 51 Wewunwunce 51 FC Springfield 51 Glorydaze 46 FC Newark 41 Pararaiders 41 FC Touchline Ban 38 Now to update the online tables. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
================ Gameweek 1 Review ================ Top scorer, WhataBunchofMuppets! drafted 6th in Sand and ThiKu Rapids (second best) drafted 5th - also in Sand. Aviators came in as this week's third top scorer, from a position 7 drafting slot, in Very Small Rocks. Other group winners this week were ColdDogSoup FC (drafting 2nd in Small Rocks); VegasVirgins (drafting 4th in Small Rocks); Sasha Juniors (drafting 1st in Small Rocks); FC St. Pauli (drafting 8th in Small Rocks). Group O produced the lowest scoring winner (Island Hopping with 63 points) - drafting third in Very Small Rocks. Group T (drafting 5th) was the highest scoring group overall (ThiKu Rapids 81; Ben Giveth & Benteke 73; blechs_dawgs 71; Pittsadelphia 67). No draws this week.
=========== Gameweek 2 =========== BiggerBoat 69 Real Mos Eisley 66 Awesenal 64 HazMat+9 59 FC Weymouth 59 Not-a-Cisse 58 868warriors 58 Pararaiders 56 Keysersoze Wanderers 55 ThiKu Rapids 54 Glorydaze 54 Aviators 53 Wewunwunce 52 Sasha Juniors 51 blechs_dawgs 49 Island Hopping 49 Top Shelf 49 SSC Snoopy 48 Yellowcake Phantoms 47 FC Newark 47 FC Springfield 45 FC St. Pauli 44 ChrisSuttonsSlippers 42 ColdDogSoup FC 41 FC Touchline Ban 38 VegasVirgins 37 Bally Boyz CF 37 WhataBunchofMuppets! 36 denoc75 34 Ben Giveth & Benteke 30 Pittsadelphia 26 Kopite Juniors 23 Group S - Drafting 1st FC Weymouth (VSR) join Sasha Juniors with a win; while Yellowcake Phantoms and Bally Boyz CF are still looking for the right answers. Group P - Drafting 2nd Awesenal (Dust) come in with a bronze medal score of 64 to take all three points, in an otherwise low-scoring group this week. Group O - Drafting 3rd Island Hopping thought John Terry's two bonus points would be enough to see them rise above FC Newark at the end of the week, and it was; until Keysersoze Wanderers (looking dead and burried) produced two awesome autosubs - Giaccherini and Campbell - for 25 points combined, to claim the winning slot. Group R - Drafting 4th If we thought Group P was low-scoring (49-42-41), just take a look at this lot (48-37-23). Pararaiders (Sand) jumps in to take control of the bunch with a healthy weekly score of 56. Group T - Drafting 5th From high-scoring group one week (81-73-71-67) to twisted ankles the next (54-49-30-26); only ThiKu Rapids stays constant with a second group win. For what it's worth, Pittsadelphia is back of the pack two weeks in a row; while Ben Giveth and blechs takey. Group I - Drafting 6th As WhataBunchofMuppets! let everyone catch up, 868warriors (Dust) take advantage to register a gameweek group win. Group N - Drafting 7th Aviators may still be sitting third in the overall All Rocks League but was out-scored by everyone in this group. While HazMat+9 and Not-a-Cisse fought a close contest for second, Real Mos Eisley beat them to the gameweek points. Group G - Drafting 8th Instead of drowing in a bottle of red and giving us all some large medal laughs, BiggerBoat went out in search of some bonus points to concentrate on an all important Group G victory. http://1800-WorldCup.com/fantasy/2014/Phase1.htm
Looking forward to this one. By the time week 5 starts, I might have a team of players that actually rack up 90 minutes and do something while on the pitch. Hope you'll be giving us weekly summaries; even if it means buying more booze.
Group B Look at that FC Springfield get 3 points for 4 Goals and Assists and Denoc get nothing. Island Hopping get the double draws. Everyone plays each team once. Two gameweeks down and 5 to go. Plenty of opportunity. If you have Chelsea midfielders and strikers and the rest of your money on defense, you may have a problem.
