A game for Fun! Old school pick the teams...

  1. And are you just going to take the average prediction for each team?

    Ie...

    Poster A says Team X 4 - 2 Team Y
    Poster B says Team X 1 - 1 Team Y
    Poster C says Team X 50 - 6 Team Y

    The average would be 18 - 3 :huh:

    Obvious floor in the system here so maybe you'll have to remove the highest and lowest for each team?

    Here is where we run into trouble. We all know that stronger teams 'on paper' don't equal wins.

    Exactly! I'd even say that the worst team should win the most games if anything, the game isn't played on paper. People should definitely take this in to consideration before predicting their scores. The worst team is the best team. Fahkt.

    I will look at it again on the Moro, will put the teams and fixtures all in one place and we can put predictions for the whole fixture list based on the teams, its going to take months otherwise

    The easiest way (well, if someone has the time and will to do so) is what was suggest previously; to create the teams manually on fifa/FM or whatever else and play the games automatically. Although that assumes the play ratings are fair and someone can be arsed to go to that much effort...

    Given the people on this board, I think that's a long shot!

    I quite enjoyed Magic's tactics...

  10. Don't get me wrong, it was amusing to see how people's minds worked when it comes to tactics and even funnier to see the piss take tactics, but how long is it going to remain entertaining for? If the game takes too long then interest will drop, its already started too IMO

    Fair enough will set up the fixtures then will put everyone's tactics and formations in one place and we can just put the predictions in for all the games

    Well I had fun picking the teams at least.

    We could wait for new season to begin and do a fantasy-league type thing for the whole season. For example if a player from your team scores a goal in real life = 2 points, assists = 1, clean sheets = 1 or something. If one of your players gets injured, free pick from remaining pool of players. Would be long and require a lot of work though.
