    This is where you guys can chat about the Draft, laugh at Keyser Soze's first pick etc.

    Try and keep the other Draft Thread to purely the picks.. makes it neater and tidier.:)

    As I've said in the other threads, best way to contact me is through PM on here. And by the looks of the speed this is moving along I'll be able to make my picks without proxy (but I have a list that I'll send if necessary).

    OK, I think we have an issue.

    My impromptu getaway has coincided I think with Dennis Horan (Bally Boys FC) leaving the country. He was going to send me his Draft List before he went away...but he maybe forgot, as did I in the rush of the last week.

    According to his Posts, he was going overseas on Friday... not sure if it is Friday 3rd or 10th?? I have emailed him... so Dennis if you are out there let us know if you are still around?

    If he does not get back to us soon, we must presume he is gone... and his post said he will not be back until after season starts. I hope he or his List turns up, but if it does not then we will need to get Jedi's friend in as replacement?

    Also, I propose a slight Draft amendment to speed things up since it is looking like you might be struggling to finish by season kickoff...to speed this up I propose the following:

    • Bally Boys FC trade Draft spots with Smash Ya Out Da Park. Smash Ya will become Number 3 and Bally Boys number 6
    • This will put the 4 Aussies at one end of Draft and 4 others at the other end which should make things go quicker
    • If Bally Boys does not show up, there is someone who can take over... they are also in USA
    If anyone objects to this let me know....

    Thanks, that is why I picked him early, I reckoned someone else would want him.

    Had a few questions about the e-mail about not picking recent transfers. How recent is that? Needed to be in the db before our draft started or earlier still?
    And also, players that have (or does) switch rl teams during our draft is still draftable right?

    No, just in the data base as at Draft Start,... I updated it every day right up until the Draft started so that Player List on Google Docs is accurate.

    Switching teams does not matter... it may only concern you if it puts you over the “3 players per EPL team” you are allowed on FPL site. If that happens, and a player switches and gives you a 4th player, you can fix it after Draft has finished

    If that where to arise do we follow the normal "two per team" rule or do we use a modification???

    There are basically 2 rules you follow:
    • FPL Site Rules- All those apply, including the 3 players per team you are allowed (not 2). There are no modifications on any of these rules. I understand that the FPL site gives you until the start of the next gameweek to "fix" your team if an inter-team transfer puts you over the 3 teams per player rule.
    • Big Soccer All Rocks Rule - You can't have a player that someone else has

    Good that's what I expected but I thought I'd ask instead of assume.


    They are actually more generous than that, your team will still be legal but you have to conform with the "max 3" rule before you can confirm any new transfers.
