ampersand Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Nah. They've been idiots and misjudged the number of servers they need for the new site. The redesigned one is clearly a lot more demanding/user than last season's setup and with a steadily increasing demand, and the run-up to the deadline of last free unlimited transfers, there's just a lot more strain on their equipment than they'd anticipated. Fools. Another reminder of how good efests is on that front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greeny_Musicchild Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 I've got a team in leagues from another forum and work but I hadn't added myself to this one yet! Looks like I'll be missing gameweek one, shame really as I didn't even feel the need to tweek today (except maybe starting with Suarez). Shouldn't have waited until now.

Vacant0 Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 Joined. Think we could do with starting a new thread for this years league - or at least updating the first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 http://www.premierleague.com/page/Headlines/0,,12306~2421213,00.html Good response. Pretty necessary IMO, even though it's just a free game. My work league actually involves a buy-in and prizes, and I doubt it's the only one. Means I can get all those Spurs and Everton players back in. After all, both teams always start the season flying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minute5072 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I'm really tempted to load my midfield with cheap players from the promoted teams just so I can get a forward line of Suarez/Rooney/Aguero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I've got Suarez/Aguero and em...Robbie Blake now Put Silva in as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kowalski Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 How long between the announcement that the Spurs/Everton match was cancelled and several signings went through did folk have to change their teams accordingly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Two days. I changed mine on the day the game got cancelled. I wonder if those of us who don't make any transfers in week 2 won't get make a double transfer in week 3? I'll be raging if that happens. A total farcical start to the season.

Ed209 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) wowza. And there i was thinking it was a bit of fun. I see kowalski takes this quite seriously. I expect to get my arse whooped I set up my account and threw in a random team to sort out when I had spare time friday evening. Luckily i'm stateside so managed to get on 5am UK time when the servers had freed up. Otherwise I would have been stuck with Bendtner and Ameobi up front Edited August 16, 2011 by Ed209 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Let me guess, you've set your team up for the first set of games, including game week 1 without Spurs/Everton, and were planning to make 2 changes to adjust for the 3rd week of fixtures, getting in players that will have a tough game in week 2? You're right about the double-transfer though. If people don't want to take advantage of this free wildcard for some reason, probably due to having set up for the fixtures, then they should get a double in week 3.

windy_miller Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I have just joined but am waiting for approval. My team is (the very unoriginal) "Norfolk n' chance" I missed the first week so am down a few points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greeny_Musicchild Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 It's taken 3 gameweeks for me to appear in the "to be added" bit at the bottom. I guess I'll just have to enjoy trying to catch you all, especially after last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greeny_Musicchild Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 (edited) fairly certain you don't start on 0 points, you just get added with current score? Edited August 30, 2011 by Greeny_Musicchild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmark2 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Just after kickoff, spent 4 points on trading to switch Ba out and get Adebayor in..... At least that hatrick will go on this week's score, but fuck.... that looks like a bad decision. Ran out of patience 80 minutes too early....
