Wereas Liverpool wont be playing for a while due to the World Club Championships, this makes the whole league an unfair reflection of who is actually winning as most teams will have played more or less games than others. This is also were we get Deuzy with his excuses ;)

Were are you now Deuzy? :p

Ha ha, it's not unfair, you just have to plan your transfers a week or so in advance ;) Every team will have some players in it that either play twice or don't play at all - its up to the manager to utilise these facilities!!

I said its an unfair reflection on the table, you misinterpreted what I meant.

At the end of the season it will all balance out though :)

lol, I think you misinterpret me :)

I was just saying that it is not an unfair reflection of the table because a manager should transfer in players that play twice, and transfer out players that don't play at all. Since this facility is available to every manager, every team's score for every week is comparable. 'Evening out' won't happen if a manager makes optimum use of his transfers :)

Either way, 77 points before bonuses! Yay!

:p

Ahh, I get you now. Very clever! Although you have to be sure that the players you transfer will at least earn back the 4 points you will sacrafice for them (after you have used the free transfer of course).

Good score (Y)

Im quite pleased with my score :)

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
