    Fantasy World Cup

    If anyone feels like joining in I have set up a Teakdoor League for fantasy world cup.

    I thought about using the Fantasy Premier Leaue, but that only uses players from the premiership, so I've gone for the FIFa one.

    http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/e/

    You need to sign up for a yahoo id if you haven't got one already and then join the group

    The group is "Teakdoor League" with the password "teakdoor"

    I haven't read the rules or picked a team yet, can someone else do that for me?????

    You must also select a group from one of the 32 competing nations at Germany 2006. Your team will be in competition with other players within that group AND against all other users in Fantasy Game.
    Select a squad of 23 players, who you think will shine at the finals and decide on a formation, e.g. 4-4-2, 4-3-3, etc. You will be able to chop and change your lineup as many times as you like before each match but once a player is in action, he cannot be substituted for another. You may also delegate a McDonald's Star Player or captain – and however many points this player earns on the field will be doubled. If you drop a player from your roster, his place in future line-ups will be vacant until the transfer window opens

    Hmmmm... I'm not really sure about it myself - as I said, can someone else have a go and then explain it.

    It seems that you can pick a new team everyday and so you need to have a wide spread of players from different countries so that you'll have enough players playing all the time - something i didn't think of while picking my team!!!!

    No, I cannot, I've now set up 2 groups, Teakdoor and Teakdoor League and I'm fucked if I can find the group ID# of either of them.

    If you PM me your email I can invite you to join or you can try setting up a group yourself and see if you can get the ID#

    This seems to be a bloody cowboy outfit as there is nowhere the administrator of a league can see the ID#!!!!!!!


    Anyway come on you fuckwits, join up!!!

    Don't worry about all that bullshit above, basically you just have to pick 23 players, no more than 3 per team, but no money restrictions or any bollox like that.

    OK, I think everything is sorted.

    Can I just check then - for the first day we just bung as many German, Costa Rican, Polish and Ecuadorian players as we can in our team, then change the team completely for the second day?

    That'll mean I'll only have 3 playing the 1st day, I knew I should have read the rules before I picked.

    3 teams up so far, anyone else - CMN fancy picking a Fantasy Welsh squad (the only one that will ever get to the World Cup, Boom, Boom!!!)

    I'm in.

    Looks a shit lot more interesting than the Premier League one...which fall apart by the quarters.

    Pity there are only 5 of us. I will try to get a couple of others in from outside.

    MtD...no, it is limited transfers. Only 3 during group stages.


    OOPS!

    I see...you field 11 of 23, so yes, only play the initial group first...

    What do you mean?

    You are already registered for Teakdoor group.

    Now when you log in, you use your yahoo.com sign in name you either had or created, not your team name...

    Actually, this is harder than I thought...I mean, all very well to stick in 3 Germans and 3 Poles for the first night...but then that is 6 or squad out for the next 5 nights...and what about goalkeepers? How many do you stick in?


    Unless I am reading this completely wrong, it would be pretty bloody rare that you will be able to field a full side of 11...


    Hmmm....

    Finished. Only one goalkeeper. No bonus for clean sheets so went for one likely to make a few saves. Only 3 defenders. Just field the same lot each match.

    The rest are forwards and midfielders...most players I can get on the ground any night is 6...usually only 3. Strange but should be interesting.

    Yep! Everyone is in the same situation, so I wouldn't worry.

    Ah, there's some life in this old dog yet!!!

    What's up with you CMN?

    You pick a quad of 23, then you pick a team of 11 to play each day.

    But, you may only be able to field a few players that are actually playing - the others will be sat watching, maybe shagging some whores or trying out the rather tasty bratwurst at the local delicatessen.

    So, you can't just ick good players from good teams, you must diversify so that you can play as many players as possible.

    You can change your team everyday and make up to 3 substitutions during the group stage - then you get to pick a new team after that i think.

    What could be simpler, you moron (that means carrot in Welsh, don't you know!)

    slow down there nick.

    right I'm at the stage where I have signed up, I am looking through the options.
    I choose my 23 players, what then? Does my team name automatically go into the teakdoor league??
