To be fair - This was the type of game I was originally looking for.

Maximum of 6 transfers per week in the group phase I can deal with.

Should maximise the Metros players who stay the coure of the tournament as well.

Now becomes a totally Squad based game.

A good question - one i would have asked myself - but frankly it's not clear, and it looks like they might keep changing the rules daily, as i feared. Perhaps someone from gfm would be kind enough to clarify, or even show themselves on the forum, as it seems they might be reading this and making changes ad hoc. It is impossible to plan any strategy whatsoever for this game until rules are set in stone. Effing ridiculous, but am not in the least bit surprised. Keep an eye on the bottom of the rules page, it gives the date as to when rules were last changed, current date is may 23rd.

'A Captain change occurs when you either nominate a different member of your starting XI as your captain, substitute your current captain with a player on your bench or when you transfer out your captain and replace them with a new player in your squad.'
10 free transfers plus 22 that each incur a penalty so potentially 32.

Afternoon all,

Thought it was best I finally posted on here to hopefully clarify any of your questions about the Metro Euro 2012 game!
Firstly, GFM don't supply Metro's game anymore and didn't for the past Premier League and Champions League games - I work for FSB Tech and for any of you who have subscribed to Metro this past season then you will be probably used to me cluttering up your inbox once or twice a week!

Regarding the rule changes these past few days, then I'm sorry we've made these after the site was launched - not my preference but I'd rather try to get it right now than too close to the start of the Tournament.
There are no further changes planned, I'm just trying to ensure that the wording and understanding is clear as possibly now!
For the (hopefully) best place to read the rules as they will remain, then our How to Play section should answer everything you need to know - if it doesn't or isn't clear, then let me know and I'll update it.

But if you have any other questions, then please fire away (just be gentle)!

Thanks for writing - good to know that you're not connected with the previous metro game problems, and that hopoefully the rules are now sorted. Yes, better to have them changed well in advance, than change them during the game (which is what had happened before).

Re the captain changes, i think the issue is that in most ff games one can avoid "wasting" a captain transfer between players by transferring the captain directly, and the replacement player automatically assumes the captain position. That doesn't appear to be the case with this metro game, unless i've got it wrong (quite possible!).

Additionally, if i've read it correctly, once you have actioned your free captain change for the game week, you are stuck with that player as captain for the rest of the week. I think. One part of the rules now says you incur a 50 point penalty for every additional captain change, yet other parts don't say that you can make any captain changes other than the free one allocated. So is there a limit on number of captain changes or not (with or without penalty)?

Hi,

You're correct in your first question about captain changes - when you transfer out your captain, as with our Premier League and Champions Leagues competitions just ended, you have to still nominate a new one and this counts as a change of captain. Any replacement doesn't automatically assume the position.

Re your second question, then captain changes are unlimited - it's just the first one made in a Match Week that is free. All others incur the 50 point penalty. I'll re-read the How To Play and will amend if this isn't clear!

Welcome to the site Damian :D

It would also be useful to know why the rules have changed so dramatically in the space of 4 days.

Is this something that was wrong initially or have you become concerned about too many transfers meaning the site will crash or people will not understand the rules and lose heart?

Thank you!

With the rules then to be honest, after a relatively limited amount of time after the PL and CL competitions to get this one ready, Monday was our first time to sit back and take an objective look at what we had done for the Euros - I think there were flaws in how we initially configured the game (when it was 5 x free transfers per week and then unlimited after that but at a cost of 25 points) which was something we didn't properly rectify after our initial changes made on Tuesday.
After another re-think early yesterday, I'm hoping now we have a system in place that will work.
I personally hadn't thought about site crashes (but then that's not my job too!), but I think what we have now will reward the more knowledgeable and skilled players than it would have done before.
I'd rather not have tinkered after launch, but I do think the changes were necessary to make it a decent game.

I may be being dense, but I can't see a proper list of players. There's usually some sort of full printable list, but all I can see is the crappy little panel showing 10 players at a time without their position. Is such a list available?

Hi,

Above the player list you should see two drop-down options, one to allow you to filter by position and the other by country.

Also when you're viewing the initial list of players, it's sorted by price (high to low) - you can click on one of the headers to change this to view by player's names in A-Z format, team and points (although this is obviously of no use ahead of Tournament!) as well as in reverse price order.

Finally, you should see some extra buttons underneath the list to view 10 more players at a time, something that isn't so bad when you've added a filter by team and/or position!

I hope this helps!

Cheers, that's pretty much what I was complaining about. 368 players in groups of 10 is a PITA. I just wanted a list to bung into a spreadsheet.

If you have the info, it might be better to attach it to a post in this thread so that everyone can benefit. I have actually managed to get hold of the list in json format which gives me a chance to practice a bit of programming.

Another thing I noticed was the player search is not accent insensitive. So, for example, if you put in "oz", you get Brozek, but not Özil.

Hi,

Above the player list you should see two drop-down options, one to allow you to filter by position and the other by country.

Also when you're viewing the initial list of players, it's sorted by price (high to low) - you can click on one of the headers to change this to view by player's names in A-Z format, team and points (although this is obviously of no use ahead of Tournament!) as well as in reverse price order.

Finally, you should see some extra buttons underneath the list to view 10 more players at a time, something that isn't so bad when you've added a filter by team and/or position!

I hope this helps!


Damian
Cheers, that's pretty much what I was complaining about. 368 players in groups of 10 is a PITA. I just wanted a list to bung into a spreadsheet.
I can e-mail you a spreadsheet - just send me a message via our website or a private message here with your e-mail address and I'll send this to you.
If you have the info, it might be better to attach it to a post in this thread so that everyone can benefit. I have actually managed to get hold of the list in json format which gives my a chance to practice a bit of programming.
Hopefully the attached works!


Damian

No csv/xls files allowed it seems. Just message me if anyone wants this!

1 quick questions if I may:

1. I am allowed 1 captain chainge in a 'Match Week', If I change it mid way through do both captains get double? ( I assume not). For example I captain Lewandowski and he scores 2, then I change it to RVP for his game v Denmark and he scores 1.. How would my points work?
Many thanks!

Liking this game alot this year by the way, and really enjoy the live points system

Just replied to your pm but didn't want anyone to think I was ignoring you! Essentially, you can make changes at any time in a Match Week with players scoring as long as they are in your starting XI at the scheduled kick-off time for the game they then go on to play in - this applies to captains too, who will score double.
You could change your captain more than once in a Match Week, but once you've used up your free one, then it's a 50 point penalty for each additional captain change.

I have 1 team in position 301 despite having Szczesny and no captain yet. So maybe it's not all hopeless.
