He was talking about 3leagues x 10 teams so I'd say you are good.

KERSPLAT! · 15-05-2014 7:45pm

Not at all, it's 30 now but if more sign up everyone will get a team

GT_TDI_150 · 16-05-2014 11:45am

All I want to do is ... pick my team

:eek: You need 2 weeks to pick your team?

GT_TDI_150 · 16-05-2014 4:14pm

messing aside,

I just though, if people on the list can start picking teams there wont be(as much of )a delay in 2weeks time when you are trying to get all the teams sorted to start up this magnificent GW.

KERSPLAT! · 16-05-2014 4:22pm

You're right, it would be handy. Would be even better if I could make up my mind on the teams so that this could happen!

I'll have an answer for tomorrow and have my team picked by tomorrow evening

Wilberto · 17-05-2014 1:43am

Well, just in case I don't log on in the mean time (which I probably will because it's me) then I shall quite obviously choose Phil Brown's Southend United. I think I have already proven my case in the Copa Del Boards league that I'm not afraid of a challenge and that I can be trusted with a small team, even in a league of much bigger teams.

And if we're picking small teams I'll take Limerick FC :P

jukebox2310 · 17-05-2014 8:13am

Whats the criteria for a small team? Is it based on the division they play in, the size of their squad, their stadium capacity? For instance is a second division team in Italy as small a club as an Irish Premier?
Just like to know before I pick a team

I think were jumping the gun a bit lads. Let's leave kersplat finalize things first. I suggested no teams from premier divisions in Scotland, England, Spain , France, Germany,Italy, Holland Russia (all the top league) but with everyone else game ball it means the transfer market will be busy! But this isn't my world so see how Kersplat sees things

Al Capwned · 17-05-2014 9:23am

I started with AZ in the boards.ie league, and if it's possible, I'd like to get them again....
If they're too big (!!), I'll go with someone else.

KERSPLAT! · 17-05-2014 5:04pm

Ok, going with big teams or whatever team you want. How would people feel about giving people who pick small teams extra cash to try compete? Start top teams with 20m middle with 60/70 and lower teams like Cork etc get 140*

Rough figures*

It's your league mate, don't get me wrong, but have we not enough leagues with big teams?

I thought the idea of this league was for small teams, all battling it out with the dream of capturing a big name signing, as all superstars will be available if all big clubs are external?

I'm with Tonic with this. What's the point if it's just going to be Copa Mk II? All small teams or it's pointless. Pick a max squad level like say 85 and under and then let people pick from those squads.

irishgoldberg · 17-05-2014 5:41pm

As others have said before, can it be different from the copa league and im sure theres plenty playing this game that have the big teams in other gamesworlds. Y not make this league different?

Hercule Poirot · 17-05-2014 5:48pm

What if we kept the "pick-any-team" idea but started the league in such a way that the lower ranked teams were in the top divisions and the bigger teams in the lower divisions? More prize money for the lower teams that way?

Just an idea though.

Wouldn't make a difference, when you start with such a massive imbalance you end up with a two tier system and it's pointless.

Prize money is ****e in general, but I like your idea teams with lower ratings starting at the top, and the teams with the higher ratings starting at the bottom.

As Seaneh suggested, quickest way would be everyone picks any team they want, but have a rating cap.

Maldjd23 · 17-05-2014 5:58pm

Have to say i would prefer big teams, not sure i would have the interest to start with a crap team.

I get what your saying, but as Maldjd23 says - if you force some people to pick a smaller team they will soon lose interest - the club I want to start with are in the low 80's though, so it makes no major odds to me :pac:

I said big clubs but people weren't happy then others said they want big clubs...

Leave it with me

GT_TDI_150 · 19-05-2014 8:02pm

I just reckon pleant people have said they will take small teams, some want big teams ... me personally I want a medium team ...

I reckon people are getting sick of big clubs ... so you might be surprised at the split.

Also the squad cap from the Copa might stop the big team taking all the talent and ensure a fairer divide

I like the idea of a cap, even smaller then the copa. 30 or there abouts, expect nobody will agree but i think it makes it more of a challenge and allows the wealth to be shared even more.

danwhite88 · 19-05-2014 9:10pm

I would be interested. Have Liverpool in the boards league. Think i may have a slot available.

KERSPLAT! · 19-05-2014 9:12pm

We can definitely try a cap again. 30 seems a bit low though.. How would 30 over 21 and 10/20 under 21? The problem again is enforcing the rule

while I'm for the squad cap I think it would only complicate things by splitting it by number of players by age ... and not everyone want to have a team that is instantly competative, a team of youths might appeal to some

Wilberto · 19-05-2014 9:39pm

I think 40 is plenty big enough. That way a team has one league team, one cup team, and one team of backup players to replace injuries in either one of the other two teams, plus an additional seven squad places.

You could even set it at 35, but I wouldn't go lower than 33, and 33 is just an awful number, so bump it up to either 35 or 40!

KERSPLAT! · 19-05-2014 9:59pm

F it, I pick Real Madrid, everyone is free to pick whoever they want. I'll try give the smaller teams more cash if I can. We'll try squad max of 40 with say 1 season to get it down? 30 teams over 3 divs, I'll do a random draw for it. 14 day login, we can revise that after the first season

If it doesn't work and people become uninterested I'll start up a small team league like Mac was talking about but for now I'm going ahead with this. I know it's like the Copa but sure there are hundreds of Game worlds with big teams and small teams. If you want a small team world, it's only €6 to set it up

I completely forgot it was 18 games and not 9.

Yeah, 5 weeks would have probably meant me giving it a go, but the 9/10 weeks isn't gonna do it.

If there is a cup comp ever going, I'd say I'll give it a shout.
