    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    OK so we've got 8... let's go ahead and get started picking teams for the first division..

    What are we feeling for a limit? I kind of liked the 4 star limit from the last league but we can do whatever here, let me know what you're thinking.

    I randomized the draft order and here's what we've got:

    Pick 1: WafflesNBeer
    Pick 2: 514
    Pick 3: Ramrod
    Pick 4: Popovio
    Pick 5: PJ
    Pick 6: BStock
    Pick 7: VolBall
    Pick 8: UA412

    If we can agree to the four star limit, which i think everyone will, we can get started whenever you want waffles

    I say get all the 3.5 and 4 * teams

    then randomize the people again (3 times or however many times it takes to make it really random)

    then randomize the teams and 1st team goes with first player, 2nd with 2nd, etc

    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    I'm definitely down with that... sounds like it could take awhile though. What if we just used the teams from the other leagues and assume they were the best available, that work?

    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    Just had an idea.. why don't we redraft teams each season in the order we finished in.. either top to bottom or bottom to top.

    Let me know what you think but I'm trying to think of ways to keep people in for longer than a week, like incentives basically

    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    if other's want to pick first i don't care. are we going to join an official league or just play and report results?

    also, i'm assuming this is for 360....?


    gamertag: chpmntsptx

    Can't decide b/w CSKA moskva and Fenerbahce. I'll go with CSKA.

    If everyone wants 3.5*, I'll pick a different one.

    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    Okay I don't want to make another thread with a poll but everyone just post in here whether you want a random draw or just a draft with a random order... We're going to add Chile and CuseNole, so either way I'll re-randomize the order and we'll start this today.

    Yeah this is a 360 league and we'll set up an actual league on live too but we'll keep track otherwise like the other one just in case

    I vote for a draft, I want to pick my shitty team

    Re: Real Leagues... Please don't Fall Apart

    yeah we're doing a four star limit just like the other league so that would give you the list of the best available more or less anyway

    we'll start the draft tonight but I'll have the order up as soon as we get done having everyone say they want a draft haha

    The ones crossed through have been bumped to 4 and 1/2. Are we cutting it a 4 stars. Just wanna make sure before i pick.

    Re: Mainboard Premier League - CuseNole on the Clock

    I'm down with making the 4 1/2 stars fair game but thats just because my team is a 4 1/2 club now... anyone opposed?

    I think the key to a star limit to get rid of the homo teams like Man U/Barca/etc. but if ya'll want to keep it down I'm down for whatever

    (btw, can anyone who is a fan of the EPL please explain to me how the hell Everton could have increased their rating this season? We've looked awful and had high expectations coming in, fucking stupid)
