    Yep I would assume so! Lemlins your man :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,377 ✭✭✭Smithwicks Man


    Lads yous could hardly tell me with regards joining private leagues, if I miss the deadline and join a league tomorrow evening, will my GW1 points still be counted?

    Not specifically on about the Boards one!

    Is there a deadline for this?

    Surely we can't have a situation where people are entering after the GW has started? A good week and they'll enter, a bad one and they won't bother.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,705 ✭✭✭54and56


    I'm up for entering but away on hols at the moment so can't pay by bank transfer. If PayPal is an option I can sign up and pay straight away. Otherwise I can only pay w/c August 17th when I'm back home.

    Possible?

    Yeah id be of the opinion that 11:45 should be the deadline. There'd be lads on here id trust 100% but it wouldn't be fair to have different rules for those guys and newbies.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon

    Not necessarily true. There is an option for admins to close leagues to new entries which can be enabled at any time even before the deadline. Good leagues often do that to ensure that sharks don't join after they see they are doing well. If you are in doubt you should ensure to join in case you are locked out.

    There is also an option to boot individual people from leagues too. Several pay leagues im in will be doing this for members that have not paid

    To the op of the question why would you wait to join? If you are waiting to see your score first a good admin would lock the league or boot you for joining late if prizes are involved

    But aside from that, if you're still allowed to join up until GW2 then the points will be counted?

    Got the code sent onto me in work earlier but forgot to take it down and I'll not get a chance to get it now before it starts!

    Yeah, if you're allowed to join then your score will count. The exception to this is if the admin resets the scoring to start from gw 2

    I had said the deadline to at least have expressed an interest in joining was today. If people wanted to join the league but pay next week that'd be fine IMO.

    I was going to extend the entry time until next Tuesdsy/Wednesday evening to allow as many people as possible to enter to maximise the fund.

    After all, even if someone has a good GW1 and enters, it's only 1 of 38 weeks. There are 37 more.

    What do people think?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,747 ✭✭✭Swiper the fox


    I think as long as they guarantee payment and have over say a hundred posts on boards that's fine.

    That'd be fine with me. In fairness a lot of people are just getting their teams sorted now so may not get around to entering leagues. I do think the deadline should be, say, Tuesday though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Deadline is midday Wednesday to at least have expressed an interest and pmed me re paying.

    I'm sticking to that now.

    Oh go on so, I'll donate to the prize fund.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Another 8 people paid last night so prize fund is up €160 to €1620. Looks like we will reach the €1800 and I'd be hopeful of reaching 2k.

    I will update name list on Monday. Spreadsheet is on work computer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,651 ✭✭✭greedygoblin


    Great work Lemlin. A free entry to the league is the very least you deserve for all the time and effort you've put into this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 44 cluray


    Think it would be right to restrict entry after 11.45 cut off to those who have actually pm'd before 11.45 today. Take someone who has a massive score in wk 1, then decides to join, they are at a huge advantage to get the first monthly prize.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,351 ✭✭✭magherakid


    Is payment bank transfer only?

    At the very least anyone that has not confirmed participation by now and joins next week instead should be disqualified from the august monthly prize. It would be very unfair for some to get a massive score and then join next week in the knowledge that they are already a frontrunner for the august prize before they've even paid

    Payment by bank transfer or lodgement to AIB account.

    Some others have paid people here by PayPal and then they have transferred me the money. I don't have a PayPal.

    Entry restricted from 12.45 today (kick off of the first game) to those who have pmed or joined in previous years.

    That's to be eligible for the August monthly prize.

    People can still enter until midday Wednesday but won't be eligible for August prize.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,820 ✭✭✭podge018


    I transferred money in the last hour


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    20 people have pmed about entering just today so I think we'll hit the 2k.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,886 ✭✭✭stephenl15


    Lem have you decided on the payout structure?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin

    Pot will be confirmed during the week and then we'll go by popular consensus.

    Unless you've already expressed an interest then yes. Did you happen to have a really good opening week!

    No just express an interest by Wednesday isn't it?

    12.45 yesterday was the deadline for that judging by the post above. Unless someone has clearly shown intent to join they definitely shouldn't be allowed to join after it's started especially when you consider we are likely to a monthly prize.

    Send a PM to Lemlin Coillte and you'll be in


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    Ah any entered won't be eligible for the august prize that's fair enough.

    That's the deadline for the August prize. Closed fully Wednesday

    Yeh saw that seems fair enough if we get someone with 80+ coming in might have to reconsider!

    An edge is an edge imo. Its not like this was put up at the last minute.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    83 people have now paid so the prize total is €1660. 116 people pmed in total and a few have told me money is coming through so we should hit at least last year's total of €1800. Closing date to have expressed an interest is midday Wednesday. Two people have paid and I cannot identify them - one is number 70 below and the other put in a transfer over the weekend and marked it "MARY BOOTS WL". I don't have a Mary on my list and the only person with Boots in their title is Boots234 who was the first person to pay!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,251 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    92 people have paid so our prize fund is now €1840. We have therefore beaten last year's total and I'm confident enough we'll get to the €2000. There are still three payments that I cannot identify. I have bolded them below. If you think one is you, please pm me. Tomorrow at 12 is the deadline to have expressed an interest in joining.
