FPL must have reset all the data on the site.

Scorpion Sting · 23-08-2014 11:24PM

Balotelli is to blame.

This is why I like FPL STATISTICS they update you on the situation.

"IMPORTANT - The price prediction algorithms are currently non operational. A significant change at the main fantasy site (at around 9pm GMT on the 23rd August) means that certain data required to operate the algorithms is now hidden. It is not known whether the change was due to a glitch or is intentional - probably the latter. An alternative means to calculate the price predictions is available, but will require time to implement and test."

I really fear El Ahamadi or Hooiveld will fall this week. These are two of so called lesser players. I don't want to lose any value.

Can anyone tell me the likely hood of these dropping?

On Friday El Ahamadi was 45% fall. Does this remain over the course of a few days & affect if more ppl transfer him out?

Price sites are down but why can't you check this out yourself?

If FPL really are changing things to stop people predicting changes, it leaves a bad taste in the mouth, tbh. Even the whole idea of not telling what the criteria for price changes are smacks of churlishness. A game where some of the rules are a secret...

Fair play FPL if that is the case.

The 45% will grow as more people transfer him out; it may take days or weeks, but if his net dealings are transfers out and he reaches 100%, he will drop by 0.1.

Personally, I'd prefer if this data wasn't available and people weren't making transfers based on other people's transfers i.e. who is about to go up or down on FISO or TFPL. It's one of the things that is making so many teams uniform. The game is more fun when teams are more mixed up.

I agree, when the data is there you have to use it but I'd much prefer if it wasnt

I don't think that'll change much if we can't see the price changes coming. Thanks to this and other forums, there'll always be clusters of similar teams.

But yes, more variety in teams would be good.

I'd disagree, last year was the first year I used any of the price prediction sites.

I don't agree that you "have to use it" to be successful. I finished in the top 500 in the world not looking at it once.

Posada · 24-08-2014 11:08AM

Looks like I'll be playing this wildcard blind re price changes. That's okay though, the lads who wild carded last week didn't make any profit it seems.

I agree that price change websites aren't a good thing. This isn't the stock exchange, it's a football game.

Did Mata fall last night?...

Dont understand how the whole price up/down works. I was seeking more of a clarification of what I already know.

Thanks Alchemist il keep my eye out. Much Appreciated

No bother, the price changes section of their site is still updated.
Ivanovic will likely rise, after 20 pts from 2 games, had similar high scores in previous seasons.

qwabercd · 24-08-2014 12:34PM

Not surprised in a way that fpl have done this (presuming it's not just a glitch). What I do find surprising is that they didn't just do it from the start of the season, why wait until 2 weeks in?

Everyone protected on total.

FPL have hidden one of stats the websites were using to calculate price rises. As a result all of the price change websites are blank as the algorithm they were using doesn't work anymore without the data.

Prices are still changing though.

FPL Statistics posted this update this morning:

IMPORTANT - The price prediction algorithms are currently non operational. A significant change at the main fantasy site (at around 9pm GMT on the 23rd August) means that certain data required to operate the algorithms is now hidden.

Back working again?

Sterling approaching a second rise before he even plays.

Ziegler1988 · 24-08-2014 10:29PM

Lol, 5 of the 990 people that own Florin Gados (and weren't aware he's injured) have transferred him out putting him on for a drop on TotalFPL.

He's at 20% to a rise according to the statistics site. The algorithms are broken now for all price rise sites so it's a best guess based on old formulae.

It's much more difficult to predict the price changes now which should make things more interesting.

Bleating Lamb · 24-08-2014 10:46PM

Any one see a pattern in price rises/falls this yr yet?...is it going to be Similiar to last yr or not where wildcard ing for first International break will let players build up kitty in bank or will there be less chance of players going up much on a GW?
Really appreciate any views.

Actually the CTC team reckon that the formulae changes by FPL are now excluding wildcard transfers from the price rise calculations
