So, I thought I'd have a stab at creating my own side game. This is aimed at all of those people (like myself) who registered too darn late for the other knockout cup or we're knocked out . What Do You Think?

Rules

A Standard Knockout Tournament (1 Leg, Not 2)
Each Leg Lasts 1 Game Week
The length of the tournament depends on how many people apply
In the case of a draw between two teams...the winner will be the player whose players scored more goals. Should This also be a tie, the winner will be the person whose captain got most points. If This is also a tie, the winner will be the person who made least transfers on that gameweek.

To Enter...

You Must Not Have Entered The Other Cup (I Can Check!), Unless You Were Knocked Out In The First Round

The Deadline For Entry Is 24th August 2007 3PM GMT+1
The First Week Of The Competition Will BE Gameweek 4
I Will Randomly Make The Draw Before Each Game Week

Important Note...

This Is The Final Rule Change.


To enter, post in the following format....

Fiso Username
Team Name
Link To Team

...

I'll Start

Kudos92
Elite XI
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/M/eventhist.mc?id=208545

...

I hope I'm not left alone on this one....

We Can Make This A Great Cup...

I have decided...once and for all....that this competition is open for anyone who didn't register for the other knockout cup or was knocked out in the first round. NOBODY ELSE MAY JOIN

Unlike the other cup, you are not immidiately entered into the cup, you must post your team details on this forum....The first draw will be made Friday 24th August 2007

Perhaps We Could Even Have The Winners Of Both Knockout Cups Compete Against Eachother In A Super Cup Style Match At The End....?!

Currently In The Cup....


Kudos Elite XI
Tort Naked Pirates
Richt Richt's Biscuit's
Maccaroon Maccaroon
kashdayz London City
ishnid Laika Fox
Jester Unied On Top
WHATEVER Proverbs Three Five

Spence4Go Ahead Pigeons
andybarellThe Red Anger
viddleodge the goats
Brogie Erins Own
M-boy CA Vellus Arsefield
irishraider Bondi Stars
scottymac Barry Crockers
shawpowerThe Drogs

So Here's How It Works....

22Players

GW4 - 11 Matches (2Player's In Each)
GW5 - four 2 Player Matches
one 3 Player Match (Randomly Decided)*
GW6 - two 3 Player Matches **
GW7 - The Final

* 2 Player'sGo Through
**1 Player Goes Through


This Is How I've Decided The Tournament Will Be Best Run...Keep Complaining To A Minimum....

It's an interesting idea, but maybe wait for a short while until more people have been knocked out? That way you'd have more people able to join. Not many missed out on the deadline for Jonathan's cup, so you are mostly going to get people knocked out, like myself.

Do You Think I Should Change The Rules Of This Competition Slightly To Permit The Best Losers To Enter.... Something Like 80 Points Plus Or Beaten By 11 Or Less

O.K. I've Decided That More People Means A Better Competition....This Is The Final Rule Change Though :D

I think 11 points does make a lot of sense. To me.
