Interest check for fantasy league auctions

Firstly... Does anyone know pro version is gonna be free for the competition? I had a blast playing in the last euros and WC.

Second... We might be having a few games. So we might need some coordination.

Finally.. Register your interest here, spots will fill pretty fast, but a new game can always be started.

Hopefully a list of open/closed games. Announcements and links to individual threads.

Maybe. Don't see this thread getting much traffic though as this part of the forum is going to be a bit quiet before the tournament stats.

 

[Armstrong_11]

Yeah my purpose to is to drum up some interest. We had a few who missed out the last time cause once the matches start u can't really create new leagues. Just a little note that if the pro version is free, We will be running a few games and everyone is welcome to join one or more.

I'd be up for it again depending on cost. I've got a feeling that the site we used last time won't be doing one though. They tried selling the business last year and got rid of the classic game so the auction game is all they have left. It all feels a bit bare bones on there at the moment. Hopefully I'm wrong, as I'm a bit of an auction addict as I've been running a game at work for about eight years.

I still don't see any where with info for the World Cup....

Dang it... I loved it during the last wc and euros

Managed to find somewhere doing a draft version where we all pick players it turns. Also gave options for an Auction but think that one cost money.

Anyway, I’ve created a league for us and set it as:

• Max 10 teams
• Select 15 players
• 2 x GK
• 5 x Def
• 5 x Mid
• 3 x Str
• once draft starts take in turns to pick players (can agree a convenient time once the 10 places have been filled)
• 30 second time limit on each player choice (or will take forever to get through)
• Max 3 players from any team

Should note that I’ve never done a fantasy football like this before so I’m going in blind and have no idea of rules, transfers, scoring, etc... but sounds like an interesting version.

See how many we get signed up from this thread and can extend out to the wider forum if we don’t hit 10 by the weekend (can change this to more or less if needed )

I'm in.

I've used this one the last few years for PL draft. Scoring is similar to FPL just no captain pick or chips.

I'd like to be in, but I'm not sure if I'll be around much over the next few weeks so i guess it depends on timing.

You can set an auto pick list so if you're not around for the draft, you can ensure your picks are still reasonable
