Lukaku is killing me, but I cant sell him with Watford coming up this weekend.

Watford have only conceded more than one at home against Chelsea, Arsenal and Bournemouth. Everton have only scored 7 away from home and 3 of those were against a Sunderland team in crisis at the time.

And it's Lukaku, get rid!!

No we don't. Adds nothing.

I thought we'd agreed whoever posts it first can do what they want

Hogey007 · 06-12-2016 09:12PM

Costa and defoe will rise. 1 tonight.

Alonso could too.

And Aguero may drop again.

Just incase these effect your plans.

They can whatever they want. As long as it includes pics!

In a cruel and unforgiving world, this thread gives us all solace. It should be a requirement to post a few pics/gifs/videos for every price change.

Adds nothing for you personally perhaps, but it's pretty clear the vast majority quite enjoy them. Any need to rain on that parade?

It does.

Shame on you.

machiavellianme · 07-12-2016 12:09AM

No chance. I've added a lot of updates stemming from way back in the single thread we had (to cover the entire FSA forum) in the soccer forum and the world continues to spin without the pointless and tenuous pictures, many of which makes no sense. If folks were to start spamming other threads with ridiculous images, we'd never hear the end of it.

I will never add them in my updates and it saddens me that some people think that my posts arent worthwhile that they have to repost it with stupid images included or make a point of thanking the 2nd post rather than the original. I guess fantasy football has become more cut throat now than it used to be. No longer good enough to just convey the info, you need to entertain too.

Scorpion Sting · 07-12-2016 12:14AM

You're reading far too much into this. Maybe best to leave the updates alone if you don't agree with the consensus.

machiavellianme · 07-12-2016 12:22AM

If there's no update, I'll post one. I won't be adding pictures, that's all.
Nothing to get worked up over. I'd just appreciate it if people recognise not all of us want to see them every day and if someone goes to the hassle of contributing an informative post to just appreciate it for what it is.
General consensus means nothing in the today's world. If it did, Hillary would be US president :pac:

Scorpion Sting · 07-12-2016 12:28AM

Fair enough. We can't all agree on everything, would be a very boring world otherwise.

I disagree, it's a bit of fun trying to figure out the price rises from the pictures, I don't mind waiting a few hours, so just because you can spoil it for the majority here, you will.
So the question is why be a spoilsport?

manual_man · 07-12-2016 01:03AM

The King of Crisp finishes, IheaNacho, is on the charge. Should rise tomorrow night, possibly even tonight if the predictions are a bit off

manual_man · 07-12-2016 02:46AM

Up:

Costa

Down:

Yaya
McQueen
Lennon
Guedioura
Morgan

elefant · 07-12-2016 07:49AM

Next time someone suggests that I take fantasy football too seriously, I'm going to show them the last page of this thread. Jesus.

It's not being a spoilsport, it's providing information - you know, the reason we're all here.
There's no proof any majority prefer images, just a few vocal posters do. There's a lot of lurkers here.

If someone posts their team looking for help etc. as just a list or in text formation, I don't see folks rushing to repost it as a snapshot from the FPL page (even though the majority prefer to look at an image).

In my head I was like "Morgan, Lennon" Grand got those two easy, then I saw "Yaya,McQueen" and didn't want to scroll further as wanted to keep guessing.

God dammit :pac:

patmac · 07-12-2016 08:52AM

Shame on me I was wondering who Nelson was for a minute. It's early.

jimmii · 07-12-2016 09:52AM

The worst thing that happens in this thread is when you click to check price changes and have to scroll through a whole load of chat. Hoping F1ngers will help put a stop to that.

Very much appreciated on the info on price changes Machiavellianme.

Checking this page has become a morning ritual the last while and a few images related to the changes give me a nice boost when no one I have hasn't rose or my whole 11 has dropped in value.

I suppose its a very unique thread in that sense where as showing info and a little bit of light entertainment on a relatively addictive thread, that's why I'd vote for images every day if possible !

It's a bloody game.
Go and make your own boring price changes changes thread if you want.
The majority do prefer a lighthearted thread with pictures.

Things are getting very tense here.

This thread was great craic back in the day. Those were the good old days.

Reddit have a Price Change bot that doesn't faff around with pictures, simple list of risers and fallers daily, and it's automated so no reliance on somebody up at all hours to monitor it

There you go then, for joyless data -> Reddit.

For a bit of fun with your data -> FSA

Lets all relax and take this, and ourselves, a little less seriously!!

Here's a deal.
1. You post non pic updates whenever you want. The PiC brigade will let you off and won't demand any hilarity from you.
2. If anybody feels the need to add a bit of humour to the updates, then they are free to do so.
3. We'll all agree to stop the Pic vs Non Pic talk.

3. Lots of 3.
