How may fookin' separate World CUp competitions do we need?

The NOOL one is a continuation of the Premier League one we had throughout the season.

The Telegraph one is one that pays good coin to the winner as an additional bonus.

Oh well.....

I don't have a credit card so I joined Alejo's fantasy league. :shrug:

At first I thought I should name my team "Arsenal + some" but then it occured to me I could be truly uninspired by calling them The Meows :laugh:

The Ross Ice Shelf?

Isn't their top scorer a penguin and their goalkeeper a seal?

I suppose they are better than the actual New Zealand team or Canada for that matter.

are you making fun of the 'shelvies'? no, our goalkeeper is not a seal, he's just a bit portly; and as for the penguin...henry just enjoys wearing a tux. so we let him. it's our first appearance at the world cup and we're the underdogs, so give us some support here, ta!

I noticed that several people have yet to select a proper initial lineup. I guess most people are waiting until tomorrow night or Friday morning. Just the same, I will go over some of the basics for the newbies.

  1. If you click on the calendar dates, you will see the lineup and bench for each day. If a player is playing that day, his opposing team will be listed to his right (ex. @CRC,GER,POL,@ECU). Using the calendar, you can even select your lineup and captain ahead of time for any specific date.

  2. If a player down on your bench has an opposing team listed beside him, you should place him up into your lineup by toggling him from "bench" to "active" and clicking "submit changes". To make room for him, you will probably have to send down to your bench a lineup player who is not playing that day by toggling him from "active" to "bench" and clicking "submit changes". You can make all your switches simultaneously since both "submit changes" buttons affect your entire roster, lineup and bench.

  3. Everyday you will want to make captain a player who is actually playing that day by illuminating the dot to his left and hitting "submit changes". This player will receive double points. The catch is that you might also lose double points if his tally is negative.

The following two links are particularly helpful in understanding the fantasy game:
