Well in Gary. Bring back the head to heads 

Be a bit tricky for me, I have no laptop or PC to use the file on drop box.
I assume that generates the fixtures for the head to head

My concern now is that it's a tie at the end of the season and I have to trawl back through all the entries and work out who has had the most correct score predictions to determine the champion

Awesome Gary lad, much appreciated fella

[Emerald Red]

Thanks Gary for saving the game, and BoRed, awesome job   

but is it not possible to list the scores in two divisions with promotion/relegation?

[BoRed]

but is it not possible to list the scores in two divisions with promotion/relegation?

No idea. I'm just helping out a bit, but who is actually in charge?

Obviously, we could split the standings above into two divisions, but I'm not sure what the reasoning behind the divisions would be without the head-to-heads.

Also crossed my mind that it probably wouldn't be too much work to do the cups if someone generated a full draw (bracket). We could then simply use gary's scores to figure out who won each tie, though tie-breakers might be an issue.

[Crosby Nick]

Cheers everyone who has helped to keep this going (I know I’d be useless!). One giant league is fine by me, I’m languishing either way!

Ok, now the weekly scores are upto date, I will try and compile a fixture list and two divisions, I'll look through the site and see if I can see any standings on which league posters are in.
I'll aim to get this done by the next set of fixtures.
The cups should be simpler, I had in mind to count the week leading upto the fa cup weeks as a side competition,

If any one has any advice, suggestions, please submit it in here

As always, please check your own scores and best of luck for the rest of the season

 

[Barneylfc∗]

This should help for the divisions, but I think a few people have dropped out.

LEAGUE ONE

Chris Sutton



If Wbaloolah is going to stick to the same rules I would apply, these will be the divisions for the season ahead.
No idea if Black Bull Nova, Skittle or RobbieRedman made predictions, so if they have it's then up to Wabaloolah to decide.
League One would be a bit shit with only Chris Sutton, but I'd be keeping him around to bump up to the Championship if any of the players dropped out in the first couple of weeks.

I will clear this up tomorrow

Wow, you mean business!

Be careful you don't bite more than you can chew, though, most of us are happy just having any kind of competition running.

Not sure what you plan to do with the Championship now that fewer than 40 players are taking part. Also, prepare for allegations of foul play when you post fixtures for the rounds that have already taken place.

There are 37 players on this list, but amir87 has missed the last four rounds, so may be a dropout. Three others have missed the last round, but have posted regularly before that, so I'm assuming they'll be back next week.

Didn't even notice that bit.
The most there's been in the last few weeks has been 34 posts. Going to assume that doesn't include Chris Sutton.
I think if Gary was doing this with a view to bringing back head to heads, I'd suggest binning that off until next season and hope to get a full compliment in both divisions.

We can have the Premier League with the players that were in it from the start of the season and anyone that hasn't posted in a few weeks replaced by the order posted above, then the remaining 13 or 14 players staying in the Championship.
Alongside this would be the overall table you have been keeping track of.

A cup comp would be handy enough. I can organise that if needs be using Gary's scores and work out all the tie breakers etc.

[Barneylfc∗]

So based on BoRed's table, the players in bold here are still active.
amir hasn't posted in weeks, so would be replaced by Sami in the Premier League.
The rest not in bold aren't in the table.

I'm happy to postpone bringing back the h2h until next season, my system would have been a bit too complicated ( it was based on the order of which the first weeks predictions were posted!)

So it's two divisions, with an overall running total league and a cup competition.

Will keep this format going and start again with the previous system next year.

[Crosby Nick]

Awesome, thanks Gary!

[vivabobbygraham]

Is right, Gary, lad. Well in 

[Prof]

Great job Gary. Thanks for taking on the mantle.

[Wabaloolah]

Well done Gary lad, thanks pal

[Bobinhood]

you're 100% doing it right. I'm in a relegation spot two leagues deep. Thats how you can tell things are working smoothly. 

[gary75]

Just a quick update folks, all scores have been compiled thanks to the file Barney has provided me with, I will get the league's posted/shared asap.

Thanks

[Ycuzz]

Well in Gary, thanks!

[gary75]

Here is the overall table upto and including week 8

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XDYoyN-X0zH23FOCiBLMM43YVS0MQSP1/edit?usp=drivesdk&ouid=111005573295265398581&rtpof=true&sd=true

I have included a column of cs, correct scores, in the event of tie at the end of the season, the entrant with the highest correct scores gets the win.

I will split it into the two leagues, but keep this going as well.
As mentioned by Barney, amir87 has not posted so sami will be moved into the premier league.

I have an idea for a couple of cup competitions, one will be a "domestic" model, based around the fa.cup, the other, will be a similar format to the champions league, as I know some of you like the head to heads.
But I need to get it set up so i will let you know when its ready to go.

Any suggestions, please fire them in here, I'm fairly new to this so if there are any tweaks or issues, please let me know

[Salger]

Great job, thanks Gary!

[Thush]

Nice one, Gary. Thanks for the update.

[gary75]

League tables updated after Week 9

I'm hoping to have  a cup competition up and running for week 11.

Thanks for taking part and keeping the league going

Doing a grand job Gary lad

[Ycuzz]

Thanks Gary, well in!

Thanks All.

I have devised a new competition,  this brings back the head to head element that some were asking for.
The seedings/standings are loosely based around last years finishing position,.

Should be fairly straightforward to follow, after three games, the top two teams progress to the EuRawka Champions playoffs
The third place teams go on to compete against each other in the EuRawka League playoffs
The teams in the red band face  off against each other in the EuRawka Conference playoffs

The top scoring team in each band (two in the green band) receive a bye in Week 14.

My first go at this, so if there are any flaws or elements missing, please let me know.

Cheers and Good Luck

Sounds great, looking forward to it.

Not quite sure about the byes, though. If there's 18 players through, there should be 14 byes, I think.

I think there's 4 byes.
The 2 highest scoring finishers from the top 2
The highest scoring 3rd place
The highest scoring 4th place

This would leave 16 players facing off from the top 2, 8 players from 3rd place, 8 players from 4th place.

So not sure where the highest scorers slot back in

In the final (or the semis in the top division).
