Egg Championship 2018/19

Post by Mystery »

Welcome to the 15th year of unique free to play Egg FF, the winner of each league wins a bespoke mug (with printed egg cup) and most importantly inclusion in the Hall of Fame located here :- viewtopic.php?f=59&t=109863

How To Play:-

1. You will be given the template team below in which you must make at least 1 and no more than 2 changes to this team by midnight on Wednesday 8th August to allow the chairman enough time to check that all teams are valid before the start of the season on Friday 10th August. Which silly so-and-so complicated our lives with starting a season on a Friday?

Patricio 3.0

Otamendi 4.2
Bailly 3.6
Robertson 3.8
Sanchez D 3.8

Ozil 4.9
Sane 4.9
Salah 6.0
Sanchez A 5.6
El Younoussi 3.1

Aguero 6.8

2. Following the start of the season manage your team in the normal way but post your transfers on the relevant thread using the following template as a guide:-

Player 1
Player 2
Player 3 :arrow: example transfer Huth
Player 4 :arrow: example transfer Shawcross
Player 5
Player 6
Player 7
Player 8
Player 9
Player 10
Player 11

Transfers Left:- 28
Value of Team:- xx.xm

Reasons for Transfers :-
Blah Blah Blah

Chairman is Mystery

Notes:-

1. Each league chairman will PM the Super League log in details, once received please enter your team in the SL as soon as possible so we can fill each league, you do not need to have made your changes at this stage. Your team name must include your FISO name to help identify yourself to others (and to me for the cup competitions) other than that be creative! and you must set your team to PUBLIC VIEW.

2. Chairman that report invalid teams at the start of the season may have to be excluded or a transfer penalty imposed (making an enforced transfer) so please pay special care to getting your team correct - it is after all very easy.

3. The Egg competition is intended as a free to play open, friendly and fun competition. If everyone posts transfers as they should on a timely basis (same day or at the very least before the next scheduled kick off) then there will be no problems, everything will run smoothly. If you feel it will not be possible to do this then please think about whether this competition is for you as it is very frustrating for others who do comply to see others not. Only those that generally comply will be allowed to play in the leagues the following year.

4. There will be a 3 up, 3 down promotion and relegation at the end of the season - no playoff this season. If anyone withdraws during the season one less will be relegated from that Division, if anyone decides not to play in the next season an additional promotion place will arise from the next league down.

5. There will be an FA cup competition which runs alongside the league competition. I will announce the weeks for the cup competition and the draws in a separate thread so keep an eye out! There is also a Champions League Competition which you need to have qualified for from the previous year.

6. If there is a tie for any position the winner will be decided by the Telegraph rules ie goals scored etc, any individual prizes are for the individual, SL prizes will be shared out as per the Fiso SL.

7. It is a requirement that you are a FISO member to play the Egg leagues if you are banned you will be removed from the league.

Championship

Entry List is provisional at the moment and will depend on all Premier League managers continuing into this season. Newcomers to the Egg pyramid will currently join here, but this league will be limited to 19 managers. Any greater number will lead to a split with Division 1 being formed, with the bottom ones from last season's Championship table being joined by new players.

1 (Un)Happyhoppy (relegated from Premier League)
2 Hotpot (relegated from Premier League)
3 Woolster (relegated from Premier League)
4 Mystery (chairman)

Hello Mystery/gents,

I've enjoyed following the Egg Cup threads (PL & Champ) for the past couple of years, so I think I would like to join this competition and give it a go if it's OK?
I will try and familiarise myself with the rules and get in to the swing of things quickly.

Kind Regards

You are more than welcome even though it makes promotion that little bit more difficult. :)

@Mystery - Think we need to nail the starting X1 as we're only 2 weeks away now and some people may be going on holiday before the season starts so will want to do their changes before they go.

It's a good point. I remember getting caught out by this. W-fi and the likes has a habit of being non existent when on your travels just when you need it for that vital team tweak.

I posted a team that Fantasy Football Geek had selected in the PL thread.

A couple of tweaks and I think it’s a decent starting XI.

I think we have to fill the PL first. Pretty sure everyone has confirmed their place so yeah we could go ahead.

Doing a bit of TFF admin / work this weekend as I'm not traveling for a change. I'm leaning towards the team Maldini posted but I might tweak it yet

With a small tweak I'm sure it would be fine.

Thought I'd ask also - do you have to make a transfer each week to your team? For instance if you feel your team is OK in a particular GW, can you make no changes and leave things as they are or do you need to post? Many thanks

There are the initial changes to differentiate the teams but after that it's 40 transfers to use when and how you like all you need to do is document them on here.

Thanks mate - just document all transfers and give reasons for the transfers also, as well as documenting team value. Cheers

Also the 2 pre season changes we can make to the team do not affect the total transfers (40) we have left throughout the season? Many thanks
