PaulHartman71 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Notes - First of all I'm not giving the South American Sign Up, this is something else on the side, as you'll find out, all this will involve me doing is making tables, doing the challenge, and hopefully joining in some friendly banter. The Challenge First of all this is not any old challenge, I for one, often get bored of many challenges as they are normally done without any competition of good banter, not including Dafuges and Gundo's and a few others. But this challenge, is going to be different, I hope it will be the first, challenge/sign up involving 20 people continuously fighting each other (not literally obviously) Okay so on with the actual challenge, as you know there are 20 teams in the Barclays Premiership. The challenge is basically like this: 1. 20 People Sign Up 2. Each week in a random order of clubs, the 20 people, in there own game, complete the 2007-08 season, with the randomised club 3. Points vary from 20 for first in the league, to 1 for last in the league 4. There are strictly NO bonus points 5. The 20 people must complete each 2007-08 season with each particular club, in the deadline set The Deadline At the moment i'm thinking either a week, or a 5 day period, this can be changed however if wanted (longer or shorter) Still Confused Any questions, feel free to post them.

PaulHartman71 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Few other things - The 20 people in the sign up is flexible, but if it stays at 20, only 19 can sign up, as I will be competing. The idea behind the challenge is to do with the enjoyment me and my work mates get out of the telegraph fantasy football, each week hoping to have beaten the other, and I hope this will be something like it.

I'm not sure what you're question is, but none of us have teams. Each week (or whatever the deadline is) we each take a different team in the premiership (we all take the same team, however the teams rotate each week, until we have done all 20) And points are rewarded for the league position we achieve with that particular team.

One problem I see would be cheating how are you going to make sure people don't cheat to achieve good league positions? Yeah, I had thought of that, the only required Screenies would be of the league table, and transfers. If anything looked suspicious then i'm sure the person wouldn't mind uploading fixture results as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehead Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 what i'm saying paul. I've heard of the managers who save after every game and restart the game until they get the result they want/need. I also think points need to be relative to the team aka. If your Derby and you finish top 6 then you deserve an award at times where as if you united and get top 3 it ent such a big deal but for clubs like united take somepoints off from the league and award it back for Chmapions league or something maybe just an idea. I'm sure you will have though of something before this all starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulHartman71 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Yeah, I get your point about people restarting, but if they wish to do that they can, it's not really cheating, just being a perfectionist, however I will definitly only do each one once, as a week isn't a lot of FM game time for me. I have thought about what your talking about with the Derby and United thing, but don't feel bonuses for the champions league and other european competitions could be used as not every team is in it. With points I will either do the original system, or possibly give points from 20 to 1, based on your performance compared to everyone elses in the league.
