The Rounded Keeper League?

[Smurphy Paw]

For the last couple of years as well as the main FISO League there has also been a ‘Member League’.
The idea was to have a league for those of us who regularly visit FISO’s FPL pages - we did the analysis and there are loads of people who (very legitimately) join the FISO league but never contribute to the pages. Some are members, others have no record of ever being on here. That’s all fine, the League does draw people to FISO. But it’s not a good way to see how we’re doing against each other.

1. Regulars League principle
The person who ran the League no longer visits FISO. So now is a good time to see if this is something we should continue with.
If there’s interest I’ve said that I am happy to set up the League (equally happy to let someone else!). Question 1 in the poll is to gauge interest. Technically the League would replace the Members League.

2. Name that League!
If ‘Yes’ to Q1 it’s also a good point in time to agree a name. The ‘Members League’ title wasn’t that popular.
How about ‘The Rounded Keeper’? (or Talkie Toaster offered STC, or Del Horno, or Gretchen, or...you get the idea).
To get the ball rolling I have set this poll up as a ‘Rounded Keeper League’ poll.

You have two votes each, one for the principle, another for the name.
Please also post so we know who’s voted and what your preference is. If there is interest it’ll help me set the league up.

Thanks

I tend not to join the FISO one as I don't recognise most of the Entrants....

As you are wont to say, exactly

[Mav3rick]

The rounded keeper sounds like a good name to me, and gives a natural place to post weekly league updates as well to perhaps promote participation whilst being able to promote the sub forum too.

Or let the last season's winner pick or have name used?

Apologies Romyn. This is why they don’t let me run stuff. You suggested the names as well as TT

[Spinynorman]

Calling it The Rounded Keeper makes sense to me but then again I'm not as regular as some.

Like the name I'm in

Been ‘dining out’ on your promotion to 6th?

[Talkie Toaster]

Looking back through the threads for the Members League it seems that one of the big problems was that quite a few people didn't realise that there were 2 leagues (the Members League and the official FISO fpl league) and so only joined the first one they came across. Maybe to try and avoid the same thing happening this time around Spencer4's announcement for the Official FISO League could contain a link to the new 'Members' League and the new league would include a link to the Official League, with each of them providing brief explanations for what both leagues are for.

Rounded Keeper is OK but add FISO to the name.

Too much dining out and it will be The Well Rounded Cheater League.

Didn't he injure himself opening a car door by hitting his leg with it? Or was it a story I made up?

I can't remember but I think asking whether he was injured was a meme before there were memes ... and should be honoured somewhere

What I liked about it was that his name is close to Don't Know, so I used it as such.

Keep the name simple.

[Smurphy Paw]

Already it looks as if there’s enough interest and, to date, no disagreement (18/18)
Are we at a point where we lock this and start a sign up thread when FPL updates?
Should I just repurpose this?

That said, there’s no rush and a reason to keep it open is to agree the name. The majority so far are happy with The Rounded Keeper (11/14)
No all though. Three ‘Others’ and four abstentions.
As ONZ mentions we’ll need to add FISO in there at the start

[RomynPG]

I was one of the others but only because I'd prefer something more cryptic - a secret handshake type of thing - I'm liking Del Hornos Magic Sponge now but as so few have any clue about that it's probably not a goer.

As this isn't FISOs official league I'm not sure we have to have FISO in there - the main league has it, all 5AS teams have to have it and so do some others and trying to shoehorn it in may limit options - The Rounded Keeper sounds better than The Rounded Keeper @FISO I think.

I'm not bothered too much - my only wish is that people have to sign up by saying hello in a thread and not slipping in a not saying a word.
