This is back.. i believe with my new critical awareness faculties.. gained by reading endless fiso posts.. this is designed by a different company.. SILENT MANAGER..
prizes are money-less!!
so i am waiting for the powers that be.. to decide on setting up a mini-league!!




Apologies if duplication of another thread ( the only one.. ought to the.. threads of game that have opened!)

waiting for admin.. i'm guessing if there are no mini-league prizes then anybody can set one up with fiso in the title... but if there are prizes then i've decided to wait for admin to do it...

The site is somewhat contradictory (probably as a result of SM copying and pasting T&Cs from one game to another without proof reading?) the only prizes mentioned are individual monthlies, nothing at all for the overall or MLs in the T&Cs, yet -

5.14 The overall winner of the Game will be the manager whose Team has accumulated the most points throughout the competition (13th August 2011 - 13th May 2012). Team of the Month prizes will be allocated as detailed in the game rules. Only one Team of the Month prize may be won per entrant. In the case of a second Team of the Month prize being won the prize will defer to the next eligible entrant.

So there will be an overall winner but no prize for being that person??? edit - just spotted it on the prize page

6.3 Duplicate mini-leagues entered into the League of Leagues will be removed without question. Duplicate mini-leagues constitute a mini-league with the exact same teams entered and as such will NOT be eligible to win prizes, as this is considered unsporting conduct. The Promoters decision is final and neither the Company nor Promoter will enter into any discussion about teams that are disqualified.

There will be a League of Leagues, you can be ineligible to win a prize, yet there are no prizes mentioned???

It's a different pricing system and layout to last time. Doesn't really appeal. Have entered a team, but not sure how long i'll give it attention.

Looking at the league table on this, although it only shows the Top 20, we seem to have a few familiar names in there. I have one team currently 53rd overall. Shame we didn't start a mini-league on this, but anyone want to declare where they are?

Slipped a touch this week: 16th (55 behind leader), 60th, 79th, 83rd, 94th.

As an FPL'er it doesn't feel quite right multi teaming. :mrgreen:

i'm flagging here... not looked at this for a while..
i confess i was tempted to set up a mini-league... but was put off by arguments raging elsewhere about mini-leagues..
current rank 1749... i think that is classified as poor... and i preferred the 1 team... 30 teams overall is killing me..

That's why I only entered 1 team instead of the 5 allowed,despite it putting me at an obvious disadvantage.

Presumably Silent Manager beat Fantasy League Ltd for this season's contract by convincing Orange that they'd get more bang for their bucks through increased website hits than via the single team only approach of Fantasy League Ltd.

If Orange do the same next season,I won't be entering.
