Boards FF Pay League 2016-17

Lemlin · 19-07-2016 7:52pm #1

Hi folks

Happy to run this again.

Same rules as last year, €20 per entry. We'll make a democratic decision on how best to split once we know the final pot.

I don't have a Paypal so bank transfer is the only option of payment. I hope that won't put people off.

If interested please PM for league and payment details. I would ask that you include the following with your pm:

Real Name:
Boards Name:
Team id:

Also, please read my directions when transferring the money to me. The message in your transfer should be your Boards name.last year a lot of people didn't follow this and it was very difficult trying to track transfers.

Last year the pot was €2100 so there's money there to be made.

Scorpion Sting · 19-07-2016 7:55pm

Good stuff Lemlin. I'll pm you later, cheers.

Username here · 19-07-2016 8:52pm

Fair play, Lemlin - I'm in again.

lassykk · 19-07-2016 9:07pm

Cheers Lemlin. Ran it excellently last year. PM sent there now.

FHFC · 19-07-2016 9:46pm

If anyone wants to PayPal entries to. me I'll forward it by bank transfer to Lemlin. Have him set up from last year.

The money will only be resting in my account I promise.

Not sure if I'm gonna do this one this year. Probably have enough long shot difficult leagues in my portfolio!

That would be great if it not too much hassle I'd definitely like to take you up on that. PayPal is so much easier for me

No problem. My paypal was frozen cause of some cock up for ages but have it up and running and now and using the app which is very handy.

As Lemlin said don't forget to allow for fees. Think if you select 'send to friends or family' rather than 'pay for services' its free or close to free. We're friends now right....if anyone from PayPal asks!

Having entered the most pay leagues ever last year I went on to have my worst year ever, so I'm limiting the damage this year* and won't be entering this one. But to any newbies out there, this is a very well-run league and I'd recommend it. The Finn Harps league (of the big non-boards ones) is also excellently run.

* yes, I know this means I'll probably have my best year now.

Lemlin · 19-07-2016 10:14pm

Already 4/5 private messages. I am going to reply to people once a day with the league details.

If you can collate any PayPal people and then maybe do a transfer to me every Saturday/Sunday with anyone for that week. That'll stop there being a big build up.

I need their real name, Boards name and team id number.

Folks, I've 13 private messages there already. Will reply to everyone tonight.

remoteboy · 20-07-2016 12:52pm

I'm in. Will PM you now. Thanks for organising.

Will do. I'm off next week so might leave the first batch till first week in Aug.

Father Hernandez · 20-07-2016 8:20pm

PM'd there, cheers!

Lemlin · 21-07-2016 8:04am

AIB website and app playing up this morning so I can't get in but I know I had the first €20 off Spock yesterday evening:

1. Spock

itsnotmyfault · 21-07-2016 10:40am

Pm sent.

Lemlin · 23-07-2016 8:38am

Over 20 enquiries so far and 9 people have paid now:

1. Spock
2. Scorpion Sting
3. Stephenl15
4. Boots234
5. Tailgunner
6. Hackers
7. Remoteboy
8. Wamble
9. Lassykk

One thing, could people please ensure they include their real name, Boards name and team id when pming. The amount of messages I am getting saying stuff like "yeah, I want to join, send me bank details" is unreal and I'm having to reply to them all asking for said details.

Also, I don't have time to go back to everyone individually saying money received so if you've paid, check here for a few days after and if your name doesn't appear, pm me please. I'll be updating the list of paid people every 24 to 48 hours.

KevIRL · 23-07-2016 9:59am

In. Will transfer funds next week, out of the country at the mo.

Thanks for running again lemlin

I'm in. Will sort payment out soon.

Just an Idea but revolut could be a good option for getting the funds and paying people at end of season.

Father Hernandez · 26-07-2016 7:44pm

I PM'd last week and haven't been able to transfer yet. Will do it by the end of the week!

I'm letting Lemlin know when I have paypal payments in hand. 2 so far.

I'd imagine he'll add to the table then.

I wasn't worried or concerned. I presumed you'd send it all pretty much in one go prior to kick off but I thought you'd update him on who'd payed.

I'm already confused as to who've I sent money to (cause I'm easily confused) so I thought my name would be on his list.

All good in the hood.

McBain11 · 28-07-2016 3:13am

Lemlin count me in. Pm sent.

Been on top of my head with work for the last few days (end of month). I have ten private messages there and got payment off six more people. Will update the list of people who've paid and reply to the private messages tomorrow.

McBain11 · 30-07-2016 5:14pm

I'm entered to the league Lemlin. Team name is calmwood. I'll send funds on to your bank account on Friday if that's ok.

Lads, can anyone tell me where I can find my 'team ID number' on the fantasy football site?

Gameweek history and it's in the url.

So if it looks like:

https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/entry/67/history

ID would be 67

Unless there's a flurry of interest, we are not going to get next to near the final prize pot of €2100 that we had last year.

Less than two weeks to the new season and only 16 entrants so far. €320.

Today's a bank holiday. I'd expect you'll see a good few more payments tomorrow when everyone is back to work. I can see from the last 5 or 6 posts, a few people have declared their interest in joining. But yeah I can't see the total number of entrants being close to 105 this season.

I'd imagine it will mirror the sign ups on FPL surely there will be near 2m teams by the time the season kicks off so hopefully we can hit ~40 here too.

FHFC · 01-08-2016 12:45pm

The standard in this was ridiculous last season too. I'm already in a few high standard leagues like Finn Harps and Moolah that I'll need an extraordinary season to win. I need some spots for lower hanging fruit too! That's why I'm giving this a pass this year.

Father Hernandez · 01-08-2016 2:02pm

Sent money across there, thanks for organising !

Perhaps put a message in the thread from last year (2015/2016).

I'll send you a pm over the weekend. Thanks for looking after this. Cheers.

MrSkinny · 05-08-2016 4:46pm

I'm in again. PM sent.

Will try to improve on last year but the standard here is so high that I'll probably fail.

After getting to 2nd or 3rd place the wheels came off a bit over the last few GWs and just missed out on the prizes. I think that trying to make the most of the last couple of DGWs and the new chips made me overthink things too much. Hindsight and all that ...

I've just paid and entered now, @Lemlin my team name is Evil Gus Parkers XI as I only used Swiper in the reference by mistake.

Ziegler1988 · 08-08-2016 6:17pm

Barring a late flurry of entrants, can we scrap the monthly prizes and just make it top 3 or 5 get paid?
