Neowin's Official Fantasy Soccer Thread


Recommended Posts

I have created a team now... A question, how does this work? :p The players will they be as good as they are ranked now or will that change in the next season? What I am asking is should I get players who played excellent in the 03/04 season or those that I think will play good in 04/05 season? And will this be in real time with the premier league? I cant seem to find a guide or something explaining this...

Yeah, you have to pick players that you think will perform well this premiership season. Your player will be awarded points according to the criteria below as the season unfolds.

It is the team at the end of the season that accumulates the most points that wins the league.

In this sense, it is better to pick players that will score well in the criteria above as oppose to those who are actually better over all players.

<edit>

Make sure you don't forget to join the Neowin League!

Whups...this is soccer...not your typical "fantasy Football"

This is NOT soccer...it's footie and that's the end of it! LOL:laugh:h::laugh:h::laugh:h:

Only uneducated Yanks call it "soccer". We Brits hate to hear it called that!;);)

I've just enterted my team...picked it in about 2 mins flat.

Come on Ollie's Dreamers!

can you change players in the middle of the season?

What solution do you think is the best, some greet players and some very poor, or the whole team being average?

I calculated total score per price and found that together you get more total point for your team with 2 players with 200 points than several players with a lower score...

But I will tweak it a bit, I am not satisfied...

^^^^In answer to above post^^^^

I have got the base of two or three very good players which will score highly then I have surrounded by cheaper players. My cheaper players are mostly young and unproven. This is a bit of a gamble, but if it pays off then I will have a few quality players whilst only paying a small amount. I have also made sure each player is likely to score highly in every catagory (assists, goals etc).

I also used another 'trick' for chosing a good squad but I will reveal later so you lot don't copy me.... :shifty:

(Although, again, it is a bit of a gamble).

We have eleven teams now! I am actually quite looking forward to this!

Just been making a few transfers - I must change about two players every day!

Ok I'm in, Team Relegation has joined the fight :D

I love the team name - it's great :D

Once the season starts transfers do not go through till the next week and only get 1 free transfer per week i think, any more than that cost you points!

Yeah, thats right!

Just making sure I pick the best players for my cause before the season starts so I won't have to do too much transfering during the season!

:cool:

    • Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.

    • Studio MDHR reveals Cuphead sequel and an 8-bit platformer spin-off by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Studio MDHR has been rather silent about its next major gaming project since the release of Cuphead back in 2017. However, that ended today during the Summer Game Fest presentation, with the studio revealing not one but two project announcements. First, the studio confirmed that it is currently in the middle of developing a brand-new Cuphead game, bringing back the iconic characters for another adventure. Just like the last game, this is slated to be a fully hand-animated endeavor. This also means there isn't a release date attached to it yet. “Craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do here at Studio MDHR,” says co-founder Chad Moldenhauer. “When it came time to peel back the curtain and share a little bit about what we’ve been up to, we couldn’t imagine a more fun way to do so than with today’s Special Bulletin. The studio is working on this new Cuphead with help from Toronto’s Stop Motion Department and Continue Agency. At the same time, Studio MDHR also revealed that another part of the team has been working on a different Cuphead installment. Dubbed the Mighty Cuphead Adventure, this is taking a different art direction to the original. "In true Studio MDHR fashion, this game goes beyond just taking inspiration from the classics of the 1980s… it is actually built with technology of the era," the studio explained. "That's right: Mighty Cuphead Adventure is programmed in assembly language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega Master System home gaming console in mind." Aside from releasing on PC and modern consoles, Mighty Cuphead Adventure will even be playable on the 1985-released Sega Master System. A release date has not been announced just yet.
    • Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.
