the weekly game and the changes

Post by the-postman »

ok this week if you pick say rooney in your 11 your team for the weekend is locked Friday night ?

if you pick pelle or mane on sat your team is locked at 12.45 ?

if you ignore villa v utd and sot v everton you can still pick teams up until 3.00 pm ?

I think they will have a confirm button. You can play around with your team all you want , but until you press the confirm it's not entered. Seems the best way to me.

That gives everyone about 24 hours to enter.

What could possibly go wrong?

Last year they started off opening the weekly game on the Thursday but after a month or so, as soon as the first eligible game began usually 12.45 on Saturday, the following weeks game would be open to enter the five teams, and so you'd have a whole week to enter them.

But this year we only get one entry each, rather than one entry per seasonal team.

So we don't need as long to enter.

From The Sun:

wanted to give you a heads up that due to current performance issues we have been experiencing on the site we have taken the choice to postpone Weekly by one week. At the moment our priority is to produce a stable environment and insure against a repeat of last weekend. It is risk to launch a new product on top of these performance issues with a fear that players may havea an even more unsatifactory experience of not being able to enter their weekly team or make last minute changes let alone their live score.

Plans are afoot for the following week and we will make sure that prize money rolls over as well as doubling the prize winners to 200.

If you've entered loads of teams, then surely you know whether you're a club dreamteam member or a Sun + one ? Which makes you eligible. Or are you only playing for two months. (with loads of teams) ?

Lets not murder another thread with pointless debate. If you was trying to call me thick you should have just sent me a PM and just insulted me.. Rather Than doing in front of people who prob don't even give a toss
