i5s General Discussion

How about this? If you finish in the bottom half this year you get to keep a fourth player? That player can be a young gun or something?

[GM]

Can we just agree to settle down and let this competition run for the season and then look at what we need to do to enhance the comp after analysing what was good and what was bad.

Trading (and only have ezipc here in the states to verify) has only been ruled out for the beginning of this season which is fair enough.

A number of the scorers people have selected may not be around next year as well, Personally I am in favour of the three keeper rule as that is the basis of drafting,  In my case I drafted 3 players who I thought I could build a strong team around for next year onwards.

Team can even up with a seeded draft next year as well as trading,

So finally just chill and try not to take the fun out of the competition.  May lose traction before it starts if we keep arguing the way we are, I for one am getting tired of the same old arguments being put up day after day.  It is obvious that there is not consensus on some issues and yet we have not had a ball kicked in the competition.

Well said Ringo ,
Still working on your holiday,  lol.
Hope it has started well mate.

Must mark thie one on the wll Tbag has said something noteworthy. 

Actually do not mind this idea but will need to ensure no tanking takes place.

Stop thinking on your holidays ringo lol. Hope you're having a good time :).

I think it would have to work on a 2-3 basis rather than 3-4, but I think we'll look at making it more complicated after season 1.

I also drafted under the assumption we would be able to keep 3 players.

If not I wouldn't have taken Josh Kelly third and picked other players who have upside or could be that third keeper - I'd have just gone the players I thought would score the highest in order to have a better chance of winning this season if there was only 2 or 1 keeper.

Looks like we need a new coach.

Yeah, but he never deactivated his account in that time.

[Mr.Craig]

Never understood why people do that tbh.

I'm 100% ok with trading not happening until the end of the first season. But, and trying not to sound like a little dog (damn you and your new filter HP :P) here, if we get to the end of the first season, have 3 keepers, and no trading, it's likely that it will also be my last season. Just wouldn't be anything to keep me interested in the comp tbh.

I like screwing with people, and find it funny with the new filters :P.

As for all these changes to the rules and stuff, I've stayed out of it cause happy with the way Oss had originally planned, it's meant to be for some fun so I'm down with anything the head honcho says for it :).

Hey guys,

Over the last few months I've found I have had less and less time to even log onto fanfooty. Work is heating up, and with a second kid coming, I just don't see this changing anytime soon.

Because I'm a 'all or nothing' kinda guy, I'm looking at stepping back from fanfooty. I'll still be around, and I'll still be participating, but I don't think I can admin anymore.

So I'll be stepping back from elxam, WXVs and i5s (yes, I know I just created it). I'll still be helping out, particularly at the beginning, but the week-to-week stuff is too much for me anymore.

Purple 77 has agree to take over the Admin side of WXVs. Check his scores for the Brewers though, I'm not sure how impartial he can be. Purps has asked me to help with trade decisions though, and I've stupidly said yes.

I've asked Nige and nrich102 to take over from the i5s, they are yet to reply, but am more than happy to help set up fixtures/stats etc to whoever does take over.

Will be hoping to grab 3 elxam volunteers (one for each comp) to take over also. So PM me if interested. It is a tough job, and takes significant time each week, so be careful when volunteering! I'll make sure to have as much as I can set up to help the incumbent though.
