Oh rite ok.
Yea dw about the other question then..

Patiently waiting for DG now... :)

Luigi197 · July 24, 2011, 05:15:43 PM

Hey CF, are you gonna make a AEPL Fantasy Game: Draw/Results/Table thread like Fletch did? Then make it a sticky?
And are you gonna have a thread for each week with 'GR12 Discussion/Teams/Trades/Analysis' instead of having multiple threads for every gameround?

-also should someone PM a mod (or m0nty?) about 'un-sticking' Fletch's AEPL thread?

Luigi197 · July 24, 2011, 05:20:23 PM

Also it took a month and 7 days to do the 176 picks for the Soccer Dynasty, that was averaging under 4.6 picks a day.
We have to almost double that rate (7.6 picks a day) if we want to complete it on time. Did you guys do it on time last year?

CrowsFan · July 24, 2011, 07:07:45 PM

Yes luigi I will be making that thread shortly. Fixtures have already been created so will post that up later.
Yes I know it is going to be a struggle to get this finished before the season starts which is why we have to give picks to others if we are going to be away for a while.
No we didn't start on time last year but that was also cos we didn't start till after the season started. If we end up being a rounds late then we will just play less matches...

or we could calculate our scores from round 1 and play with that?

Rely want the draft to move nice and quick :/

DG · July 24, 2011, 08:54:46 PM

Chaps, sorry for the short delay, I choose Robin van persie. With zz missing, when will my next pick be?

Luigi197 · July 24, 2011, 09:04:03 PM

Ok. Was gonna pick Van Persie, but DG got him.
Was gonna pick Gerrard, but he's now injured.

So I choose:

Darren Bent

Samir Nasri

Luigi :)

Your next pick is right now DG. The picks get reversed each round ;)
nice picks both of you :)

DG · July 24, 2011, 09:21:28 PM

I like it, well played luigi. I'll take dirk kuyt. ;)

CrowsFan · July 24, 2011, 09:30:33 PM

Another good pick. Pretty much all the obvious players going so far.
Hawka up now

Hawka · July 24, 2011, 10:09:18 PM

Il take the first defender..leighton baines :D

CrowsFan · July 24, 2011, 10:22:56 PM

Think it's a little early to be taking defenders but definitely the best defender out there. Goals and assists since he takes free kicks. Nice one.
Now to wait for zz to pick. Where has he been this weekend?

Hawka · July 24, 2011, 10:36:17 PM

Hmm maybe it is but he is the best but if I remember correctly there were 2 or 3 defenders picked before my 2nd pic last yr which was around pick 10

I was thinking about him soonish ;). Picked him up last year but a few rounds in as I love the way he attacks. I was hoping he'd slip to me as him and ___ will provide the core to my defence 8).

Had a few others before Bent and with Villa's midfield sells, may hurt a tad. Nasri I was planning with my next pick :(. Some nice picks though 8).
