With regard to the number of posts, is the number of posts you have at your entry point the final number or is it the number at cut off on Sunday? Obviously won't apply to me but just wondering.

Guessing its the number listed in the entry post be a bit of work to have to go through all the names on Sunday and update it all.

I am currently around mid 40's post count wise, not looking good to make the 64. No doubt there are a few regulars who are taking a small break from fantasy football that will enter before Sunday.

Not to worry, will have to get the post count up for next year !

I wonder though. I'm interested to see what the take up will be like over the weekend but there were only a couple of additions today and I'm not so sure now that there will be a big surge ( at least from posters with a big post count)

Nothing to base that observation on mind you!! Just a hunch.

We could be ridiculously awkward and demand a rule change?!
I mean the post count rule is very fair, cant complain about that especially in free competition being attended to diligently by one of the best posters in the forum, but still I dont like it I demand a vote off or something!

Last year it took a good few days to get to the 64. I think maybe a week and a half. Loads of people came later for the Europa but that was over a number of months.

I'm cheap - you can always buy your way into the League by providing a prize!

All the good players did bad last year! This year we'll all rise like a pheonix! I think we'll see a few pot 4 teams top the group!

Check your bad self. I made the semi final last year

Although I was in pot 2 last year following my 8k finish the season before.

56 entrants now. 8 spots left before people start losing places.

Clinging onto a Pot 1 position by my fingertips!

I wasnt in this last year, but if I recall you need people to administer each group for you? If so I'll be happy to help.

That request will be coming next week once the groups are set.

You're currently 7th seed so well inside Pot 1 (16 groups of 4 I think)

I'm now 32nd seed and 100% certain to be in pot 3!!

jimmii

One thing I knew I wouldn't have to worry about was which pot I was going to be in! Pot 4 is definitely going to full to the brim with awesome.

Also we're all agreed on lowest team ID getting a 1 point bonus right?

And every team who's name starts with the letter D should also get a bonus point per match. It stands to reason really when you think about it

5 more spaces left now by my reckoning. I thought this would have filled up much quicker. Seems that the demand is down from last year.

I've been officially pushed down into pot 3

I don't think it is tbh. Entry is only up since Tuesday. Last year people had nearly two weeks and we struggled to the 64.

worthy of a mention in the matchday thread?

I thought there would be a few to miss out too! Are we going to have "average" play in a couple of groups!!
