Rds1983 Posted December 12, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2015 I've had an absolutely awful day in my league. Left Deulefeu on my bench and he has scored more than any of my active players and only has 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Im 4-1with the most points scored not even paying attention because the scoring is shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I really disagree that the scoring is shit. I find it quite good actually, it really values all contributions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far more interesting than just the regular version. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'm the opposite. I've lost all interest in this. I like the idea, but I don't think they've quite pulled it off. It's boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted December 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2015 The scoring and adding autosubs mainly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted December 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2015 Auto-subs would make the game easier but they do give a window to update things after line ups are announced. I lost my match up this week as I left De Bruyne in but I should have checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I think auto-subs is a good shout and I actually think its something they're planning to implement. I agree with the scoring, It's by no means perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 No to autosubs. You don;'t have them in the NFL one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Auto-Subs i'd like because I'm tired of picking up wins against people who aren't actively checking their lineups. However i'd prefer no subs if it was in a league where everyone was actively participating because you actually need to think tactically about your team, formation and selection to maximise your points which I enjoy.

Yeah, I think the real issue here is getting together a group of 12 people who are really prepared to commit to the game for the full season (I'm not blaming anyone who isn't in this instance, we were trying it out). Then autosubs are less of an issue. I check the predicted teams in the 'Team News' on FantasyFootballScout on a Saturday morning, they're right 80-90% of the time (they predicted Son would start and he didn't this week, for example) but that's good enough really. As RDS says, there's also a window to change your lineup on this game which isn't there on FPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 14, 2015 Despite my feigning interest, I've still been checking my team before every game, and the lack of autosubs has screwed me several times already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've mentioned before I have a league going as well and expect to have between 3 and 5 active players come next season. I'm guessing you have about 8 active atm so a merger could work out well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Yeah. I'm not fussed who we play with next year if we do this again as long as everyone is involved. I think we've missed out on a big part of the game, the trading, because we started so late as well. Everyone is afraid to exchange because players are pretty much established at the moment. That being said, Costa is available..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I do and I don't. Lloris is decent but I've noticed the top keepers don't really rack up the points and you've got two of the best. Anyone else you want to give up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted December 16, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 16, 2015 I could be swayed on Cazorla given how long he's out. Depends if you want an instant impact. You might have to sweeten the deal on that one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
