Hi all
These rules are pretty simple but are subject to change if I've missed anything. Please sign up below if you would like to join in.

Due to the T&Cs on the TFF site this is only open to residents of the UK, Channel Islands, Isle of Man and Northern Ireland (unless you can find a way around it).


Rules
(1) You will enter a team into both competitions and then join the respective leagues set up by me. I will need a PM from each member that contains their team names.
(2) The game rules and scoring set up by TFF and FPL will apply to your respective teams throughout the season.

Entry Deadline:
TFF: 12:45pm (British Summer Time) on Saturday, August 16
FPL: 11.30am (British Summer Time) on Saturday, August 16

Any entries after these deadlines will not be entered into the competition and removed from the league.

League Codes:
League codes will be sent to everyone interested once they are set up.

TFF League:
This will be a closed league so that it represents the typical way TFF is played. ie. You will not be able to see other players' teams like you can in FPL.

Gameplay:
Each week your teams' scores will be combined into a Superleague that I will post on FISO. Your TFF score will be factored up by 1.2 to equal out the scoring systems.
Gameweeks will be based on the FPL structure (see below).

Gameweeks:
The combined league will be posted after the final match is played and scores updated by TFF and FPL in each of the following GWs.
The GW times are the FPL deadline - TFF transfers can be made up to first Kick off on each matchday as normal.


Code:

Just for fun this year... If it takes off and becomes popular then maybe a prize fund can be done next season.

I'm not going to commit just yet then - I like giving money away :lol: If I have a spare team I'll definitely enter it in this one.

Someone tried to get this idea off the ground in the FPL Forum last season,recognising that a good proportion of FPLers also played TFF,or had previously done so.

I think the main reason for choosing to combine FPL and TFF is that these are the main 2 games played by most Fisoers.

The others you've mentioned have a relatively small number of players,except for the SUN, which has not only a much smaller following than FPL,but is a relatively inactive game.

There's no prize,except for some prestige to the winner,but then nobody plays FPL for the prizes, yet there were nearly 2 million teams in the competition last season,which says it all really.

So many people enjoy the challenge. Others won't play any game except for money.

OK fair points - well made Grob.

I would personally rather enter a comp that combined scores from all the new TFF divisional games.

But I can see this will probably have wide appeal.

Might it be because the same thread is running in both FPL and TFF forums ? :wink:

Good Man ! I've just remembered you're a 4N Legion 5AS man in FPL !

As to your preferred league,I reckon your best hope would be of persuading TSO to take it on,though Lord only knows, he's got so many running :lol: - I noticed he's just signed up for this combined FPL-TFF league himself, but I don't know what impact the launch of the new free to play TFF leagues may have on his CocaCola comp this season,which previously filled a gap in the market.

Incidentally,with the combined FPL-TFF league,you don't have to do anything after you've entered your 1 x FPL team and 1 x TFF team in the league,as Dixie's programme takes care of everything thereafter,and your TFF team is still in the main TFF competition.

I've sent a PM to Chris to ask if I can have a seperate forum... that way I don't need to double the threads each time.

Here's hoping... :wink:

It would be better,especially when you're seeking opinions from both TFFers and FPLers.

btw,do the FPL and TFF teamnames need to be the same,or doesn't it matter ?

No, not really. Everyone will have to PM me their Team names so I'll know who's who anyway. When I publish the combined league it will be based on FISO name not Team names... although I'll try to fit them into the league table some how.

Not sure where to post this but is there a transfer amnesty in FPL if you sign up now as per TFF?
