Post by quizking »

just had an email noting that registration opens july 9th, and overall prize will be a trip to L.A. to see beckham play for that soccerball team. would have preferred a trip to buenos aires or rio meself, but there you go. check your inboxes - it was just an end of season round-up type missive.

just checked with OFL - that site now live as well, player prices identical this year. easier to use OFL player list in fact, as that can be sorted by value.

There wont be any Tevez all week....

They may sit down and make a decision at the end of the week and add him then but for the moment (for the good of the game) they will not be adding him to the player list.

For what it's worth, these are his details currently:

Carlos Tevez, Striker, West Ham, £6.6m

Price is unlikely to change, even if club does...

Hunch led to some detective work. On basis that player code rarely changes on OFL from year to year, used Tevez's ID last season, 662, to get info (as posted in previous thread).

To check Tevez data for yourself, click on: http://classic.fantasyleague.com/Stat/P ... ?parId=662

As a cross-check, Dean Ashton's stats are under 692 suffix:

Good detective work, i like it :D

The only drawback being that they will increase the price if the move goes ahead before the end of the week.. :cry:

'The new season is looming large on the horizon and we've opened registration for Channel 4 Fantasy Football Monthly 2007/08 early to give you plenty of time to choose your Fantasy XI! So let the selection dilemmas begin...

The first Game Month will kick off with the first match of the new season on 11 August. If you sign up before the then, your name will go into the hat to win a top-of-the-range laptop and printer!

Seem to remember they had less publicity last year - always used to start a bit later than the other comps anyway - and only had around 60,000 entries as compared to 90,000 the year before. (those figures are only very rough guesstimates, going from position of whoever was bottom of the fiso league). Note that they've changed to 9 game months this year, best 3 scores count. Like the new graphics - hope that also means less downtime and issues with trying to make transfers at the last minute. Didn't recognize name of last year's winner - and though i'm flattered to be mentioned as a "big hitter", despite having been in the lead at new year a couple of years ago and was looking forward to a freebie to rio di janeiro, couldn't even manage a top ten finish in the end so hardly think i'd count on this one. Will be trying harder this year despite not having L.A. in my favourite cities list (I hate the place, but new girlfriend might like it, who knows, might even be a mrs. quiz so i'd better be on best behaviour).

You'd never guess that a new bottle of rum had been opened.....

Have been running separate SL with mates since 1990s.
Last season, own C4 team finished 77th with 253 points, 40 behind the best of more than 70,000 teams.
For info, in 2005-06, the inaugural C4 year, 113,000 sides took part.
Previously, the BBC fronted this with OFL's help and attracted 200,000+ contestants annually.

You should receive a link in an email shortly after registering which will validate. If you fail to receive this email, you can send an email to channel4premactivations@fantasyleague.com and the system will automatically validate your team (assuming of course you sent the email from the correct address).
