The FISO Divisional Championships (aka "Divisionals")

•  
  are a Competition, as the name itself suggests,
  based on a hierarchical format with several Divisions at different levels,
  bound together by the principle of promotion and relegation between them
  •  
  • the competition is based upon the Fantasy Premier League (FPL) Fantasy Football game
     
  • to play the FISO Divisionals, you need:
    - to be a FISO member
    - to have entered a valid FPL Team for the current FPL season (not necessarily since GW1 tho)
     
     
  • a Divisionals Season is divided into several Rounds (FPL call them "Phases", which are actually Months)
    unlike FPL Phases, which length is variable, each Divisionals Round encompasses 5 FPL Gameweeks
     
  • unlike the FPL Season and Phases, a Round is not a subordinate part within an "overall" competition:
    every and each Round is a full and complete competition in itself:
    - every Round will crown a Champion, each one deserving the same importance and honour as the others
    - at the end of each Round, Promotions and Relegations will determine new Divisions for the next Round
     
  • The Divisionals scoring is entirely based upon and mirrors the FPL scoring of your Team
    Classic Leagues scoring: the Round score is the sum of the 5 Gameweek Points in a Round
    FPL rules for Phases scoring do apply as well, in exactly the same way:
    - Transfer Costs cause a Point Deduction from your score during a Round
    - NO deduction will be applied for any number of Transfers you make before a Round
  2017/18 is the 13th Season of the Divisionals
  it officially started with Round 1 on FPL GW4
  
  Latecomers can still join anytime, with the season underway
  they'll enter in the bottom Division, starting with the next available Round

Hall of Fame
UPDATED with Round 7 Champion: Albert_ini

after Season 13,
a total of 86 PL Champion Titles have been awarded in Divisionals history,
to 54 different individual players

Albert_ini claims his maiden title, only the 3rd new Champion this season (after snakzz and Neath boy)
the other 4 had won previously, but for 3 of them the new title didn't bode well thereafter:
HoF leader Stemania failed again to get back to PL, this time he even struggled to avoid dropping further
2 other Former (and multiple) Champions leave top flight (for the moment): reds363 & Geoffv
(BTW, the 4th one and season opening champion thesilkworm, went on instead to win Team of the Season )
____________________

Season 13

24 former Champions are playing Divisionals this season, representing 39 Titles
we had alas to say farewell to atx1303 [4], The Dazzler, GingerMonkey, minigokou [2] and Dronning Maud Land
they'll be welcome to rejoin in next seasons, or even halfway in this one if they change their mind (of course restarting their climb from Sunday League)

6 thereof are rookie Champions, having earned their maiden title in last season. Indeed of the 7 Season 12 winners only Stemania had won previously.

at the start of the Season, in Round 1
here's the distribution of the 24 FC across the Divisions (higlighted in the table on the left of their name in the R1 column)

• 9 in PL - Stemania [4], reds363 [3], Joccki_10, Geoffv, Moist von Lipwig, thesilkworm, Hogmeister, fred1266, Ardrageen
  these are the ones who can increase their record in the current Round already, highlighted in green in the table
• 5 in CH - tenpinterry [2], MorrisonDullforce, Nedved_Cannon, Calvin1979, bossdrum
• 4 in L.One - Brightwater, El Tel of Ealing [4], wiseowl65, Le Red
• 2 in L.Two - Spencer4 [2], andybarrell
• 3 in Cnf - Doogal [2], Tacalabala, owenclass
• 1 in Nat - malefice [2]

FPL DGW preview 2017_18
GW19 and GW21 official results will only be updated online, at first,
due to intervening holidays (Xmas & NYD) and festive schedule congestion.
Their tables will get posted here after GW20 and GW22 will have started

BTW, this year we'll have an April fools' Easter... pranking bunnies expected on pitches

• DIVISIONS SIZE
  
  Divisions Sizing Guidelines, to remind you the principles I follow
  - Premier League has to be slightly smaller in size than the lower Divisions (1. as it's in real life - 2. to confer more prestige - 3. it has no Promotions)
  - a balance will have to be pursued between a not too big size vs not too many levels
  - bottom Division will have to be significantly smaller, even down to half the normal size, as it has no relegation fight
  
  Season 13 registers a sizeable increase in numbers, +12 from 139 to 151 teams, more than last season (+6 at the start + further 4 underway)
  thanks maybe to the synergy with the Sidegame Entry Portal set up by Tacalabala for his FISO Cup, which helped bring new players total to 33
  this induced me to add a 7th tier, the Sunday League, in order to keep a more standardized size across the ladder
  
  PL 20 - Ch 22 | L1 24 - L2 24 | Cnf 24 - Nat 24 | Sun 13 (latecomers will be accommodated here)
   
• Promotions and Relegations
  
  4 Promotions and Relegations between Premier League and Championship
  5 Promotions and Relegations between all other Divisions
  (P/R regarding Sunday League might grow to 6 should its size increase above 17 with Latecomers)
  
   
• TIEBREAKERS
  1. Fewer Transfers in the Round
     TM from all 5 GWs in the Round count, including those in its GW1 (which cost doesn't get deducted from the score)
  2. H2H records in the Round between all tied teams
     TC from GW1 get deducted only for the H2H tiebreaker purpose
     a Draw will count as such, without further breaking it (e.g. with GS/GC), as it's not a KO match
  3. Overall FPL Rank for the whole FPL season to date (Points will be shown in tables for readability, but Rank counts)
  4. Higher Qualification Score
  5. Lower FPL ID (Better than a random coin toss. It rewards those eager to register a team when the game opened)
  Criteria 1 and 2 are consistent with FPL classic Phases scoring, and with H2H leagues not starting from FPL Gameweek 1

[Aldershot Rejects]

Good job MoSe; you are a star.

[TheBigLewandowski]

Incredible detail and organisation.
I take my hat off to you. Fair play

[Talkie Toaster]

Wow. So much work gone into this.
Thanks MoSe.

[Stemania]

Amazing as ever MoSe!!!

[RomynPG]

Looking for a better season than last. need to get in the Premier League - that's where the glory is

Always awesome MoSe

[Ardrageen]

Where is the like button when you need it

Very impressive stuff as always. Looking forward to this.

Season 13 ROUND 1 - GW1 Results & Ranking (FPL GW4)

FISO DIV S13 R1 gw1.png

FISO DIV S13 R1 gw1 Graph.png

for those new: you might check a bit of explanations in last season first results post viewtopic.php?p=2948411#p2948411
things might become clearer after 2nd or 3rd gameweek data will be added
feel free to ask about any particular quirk I show in my tables which might interest you

I adapted and updated the sidegame excel file taking on of course from last season one
I checked a few teams as sample, still please help me spot any error I might have introduced in the process, and overlooked

For instance, ChelseDeano score in National is highlighted as if in top 10%, while obviously it isn't. I apologise.
I hand't properly consolidated the Conditional Formatting ranges in divisions which got resized, fixed now but please don't ask me to recapture the whole image for just that
similarly, those with 32p in Conference are NOT in bottom 10% (just)

you can find the new season online tables (light version) here http://tinyurl.com/y79pg22z
(the online version is READ-ONLY, for anyone except myself - you can tho download a local copy and follow instructions for how to update it on your own, should I slack )

[MoSe]

HoF updated in the History & Hall of Fame post (2nd from top)

Starting as I mean to go on, at the top! (of the relegation zone)

Season 13 ROUND 1 - GW2 Results & Ranking (FPL GW5)

no trace kept of Stemania and myself leading PL and CH after Saturday, and rightly so
comparison is only made with GW1 placement

Saturday GW3 intermediate scores & ranking updated

two matches to go,
1.5 yet to play according to FPLD avg, up to 3 or 4 here
Changes should not be as momentous as last time with bloody Utd last minutes
but some will still occur before this GW standings will get finalised and recorded

[MoSe]

Also remind that FPL scores are used,
they don't count autosubs nor VC yet.

For instance, browsing some sample teams I saw Tall Paul is a believer , I mean, a Jesus Captainer.
He will get Cork 2p as sub, and Lukaku 7p as VC.
Adding 9p he'd be in Championsip promotion zone as of now.

[jeffmcgow]

Crikey, I'm doing nicely in the Championship

I'll certainly be rooting for Elliot and Joselu today.
