    Out of curiosity, is it possible to set a max limit on squad sizes? If so it will prevent teams from completely saturating the game world.

    Just waiting one one more player for the minimum 16, then will see if people want to proceed with 2 leagues of 8.

    After that we can discuss the details like that and see what people think.

    Was about to ask the same thing, haven't a clue whats going on!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,818 ✭✭✭swoody


    are we having bidding wars or are we calling out who we want one by one?

    Following on from that point the idea will be then to do 5 rounds of picking players, here in this thread as follows;

    Round 1: GK
    Round 2: DEF
    Round 3: MID
    Round 4: FWD
    Round 5: Wildcard, Any Position.

    Obviously some players are versatile so as long as the player can play the position for the round he is eligible to be picked.

    The 1st round order will be randomly generated, the 2nd round will be the reverse of this. The 3rd round will be randomly generated, the 4th round will be the reverse of this. The 5th round will be randomly generated.

    After round 5 of drafting each club will have 5 players picked. This is the bit that needs honesty and so only honest people need apply :pac:.





    The proposed clubs at the moment are:

    Dortmund
    Bayern Munich
    PSG
    Marseille
    Benfica
    Sporting
    Barcelona
    Real Madrid
    Atlético Madrid
    Man Utd
    Man City
    Arsenal
    Chelsea
    Liverpool
    AC Milan
    Inter Milan
    Juventus
    Sao Paolo
    Flamengo
    River Plate
    Boca Juniors
    Ajax
    PSV


    Straight from the horses mouth!! :D :P

    So we just sit tight and wait for the random club to be givin first choice!

    We need to be assigned clubs first though?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    So we all pick a keeper in order of listing then onto defenders in reverse order... and so on... is that right? Or we all pick 5 players and then go hell for leather on the rest? 1 at a time would give everyone a good chance though it will take a while!!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 18,300 ✭✭✭✭Seaneh


    he will assign us numbers for rounds 1 and 2.

    1 - 16.

    Round 1, 1 goes first 16 goes last.
    Round 2, 16 goes first 1 goes last.

    New numbers assigned for rounds 3 and 4, same rules.

    new numbers for round 5.

    You pick 1 player per round.

    If I remember right the list we have will be randomised for player selection, each person on the list after the random generation picks a player, then for the next player the selection is done in reverse order.

    It's actually good as that means no one can feel hard done by signing up to the GW late as with random generation everyone gets a fair whack.

    Sounds good, I'll go first... :P

    Nice one!

    So can we agree on 2 leagues of 8? Then playing each other 4 times.

    Not the most important thing right now as i won't set the GW up until after the draft stage, but if people prefer 1 division we can go down that route.

    Anyways.

    16 Teams:

    Dortmund
    Bayern Munich
    PSG
    Marseille
    Benfica
    Sporting
    Barcelona
    Real Madrid
    Atlético Madrid
    Man Utd
    Man City
    Arsenal
    Chelsea
    AC Milan
    Inter Milan

    Juventus/Liverpool.

    I was trying so everyone club would have a domestic rival. Not important but an added bit of fun. Now I am thinking Marseille look a little bit out of place.

    Does it matter too much as we will be starting from scratch anyways?

    Do i add 1 of Liverpool or Juventus, or do I add both and cut Marseille and PSG.

    When we have a club list, i propose to do the following.

    Add the 16 clubs to a list on random.org and it will generate a random order.
    Get someone else (Wilberto) to add our 16 user names and it will generate a random order.

    Then marry up the two lists from top to bottom and that will give us our club.


    For the picking order I am just going to throw the usernames in again and it will generate a list and proceed as set out in the first post.

    Swoody it will get too complicated having a bidding war I think? It was anticipated just picking in the order of the random draws.

    Hopefully next time i login (this eve) the club list will have been decided.

    I think 2 divisions myself. Always good to have to try and have the threat of relegation and the chase for promotion. Easier to lose interest if you're mid table all the time.

    I would also like to see a small squad cap of approx 30. That gives you 2 x 11 to alternate between cup and league games and up to 8 prospects. Personally I don't like when a couple of teams hoard all the young players.

    How/where do we submit our drafts?

    How can you have a draft already? If people are picking in order how do you know all or any of the players you want will be available?

    I completely missed the idea on the draft, but your post cleared it up. I'm just itching to get this going!


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,109 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Ok I've decided we will go with 2 Divisions of 8.

    Seasons will be 28 games long playing each team 4 times.

    Will decide on relegation numbers at a later stage, obviously at least 1. Not sure if 1 and a play off is possible so not certain yet.

    The teams will be as follows.

    Dortmund
    Bayern Munich
    PSG
    Benfica
    Sporting
    Barcelona
    Real Madrid
    Atlético Madrid
    Man Utd
    Man City
    Arsenal
    Chelsea
    AC Milan
    Inter Milan
    Juventus
    Liverpool.


    I am going to get random.org to formulate that list of clubs into a random order.

    I will use that list order to do two things. One it will marry up against a random generated list of usernames, and two it will formulate the divisions.

    Odd numbers in the list will be put into Division 1.

    Even numbers will be put into Division 2.
