Thank you!

I'll donate to whichever site you own once your voodoo's done it!

dammit, looks like i made out good with pepe as my captain today. scored 33pts! that's more than my whole first matchday!!!

looks like my anti-magic was countered by anti-anti-magic. which means that now that i spoke about it it will get back to anti-magic. oh no i did it again.

Yeah, I did ok with Ronaldo as my captain. The question for me is obviously whether to stick or twist. Gomez is tempting but the Greeks are gonna defend like motherfuckers. Although I really can't see Germany not scoring.

are you in the league? which one is your team?

I do not have to think twice about captaincy.
Considering most people would go for Ronaldo for obvious reasons (and he doesn't even complain or dive or talk the referees into booking the oponent), I picked Nani, who did... nothing.
I thus have to catch up with you, and have chosen Hummels to help me doing so tonight.

hummels! hummels! he's in my defense but i've done well with both pepe + rui patricio so neuer stays on the bench.

i still don't understand how pepe scored 7, but this is what his info column for this game sez:

D R O MP GS A CS GC PS PM YC RC S PE PC RB NT V P
21 June 20:45 4 CZE 1-0 90 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 73856 6.5 7

okay so he gets 2 points for 90 minutes, 1 point for clean sheets, and 4 points for 9 recovered balls? or is it 2 for clean sheets & 3 for every 3 balls? and what is "recovered balls" exactly? recovered from where?

when i started playing this game i couldn't figure how defenders could score higher than strikers but it's been the case most of the time... only thing is, i still don't understand how haaa haaa

i am a bad and lazy student.

demonrail666 06.22.2012 01:09 PM

He got 4 points for the clean sheet and 1 for the recovered balls. The 2 are for playing for 90 minutes.

i was lucky to have khedira in, seemed to be in every play, and cheaper than schweinsteiger, who had a so-so game. i traded "down" so to speak so i could afford good strikers, but he delivered.

and i used to have lahm in my defense, but again, the money, oh, 8 points from him today, yea? cuz hummels got 2 (sorry bertrand!) and i'd add the... do defenders get 6 pts per goal? anyway still i can't believe they got 2 goals against them. fucking horrid. but i guess they gambled on offense. jogi was heard demanding more goals.

go look somewhere in this thread i was expecting lahm to score all along he finally does it after i let him go ha ha.

This round is not going well, I think I have barely even 15 points.
I picked Nani as captain too (couldn't afford Ronaldette) and he didn't deliver. Then I changed to Gomez and he didn't bring the points either... would've picked someone else if I'd seen he wasn't starting. Maybe Khedira (8 points), but with my luck I'd probably have given it to Neuer instead and still would've ended up wasting the points. Anyway, I'll have to pick another one for tonight. Fabregas might be the most likely, but I don't have time to wait for the team line-ups and a quick look around seems to suggest Torres is playing instead. Aaargh, Casillas then?

edit: Fabregas does seem to be starting after all, he better not let me down.

Bertrand 06.23.2012 04:15 PM

I moved for Fabregas too, as he was to start.
This means I dropped Jordi Alba and his 10 points...
Soooo, we'll start again tomorrow...

demonrail666 06.23.2012 05:53 PM

Loew clearly hates Fantasy Football; he knew his tinkering would play havoc this week, as well as causing massive doubts about picking any German forwards or midfielders in the future. Although he'd be made to go back to Gomez now, after seeing Klose perform. But it's the doubt that kills me.

!@#$%! 06.23.2012 06:06 PM

today arbeloa saved me from a total debacle! i wanted piqué but he was too expensive.

now thinking of substitutions:

OUT: diarra (0), torres (1), gomez (1)
IN: pirlo, cassano, lescott

pirlo and cassano have chances for scoring or assisting, so they are a good bet. however-- could lescott end up with neg points? i doubt it-- he could even get a clean sheet if he's lucky, yeah? he could even score, conceivably, on a corner kick or somehing. put in all 3? hmmm...

!@#$%! 06.27.2012 01:40 PM

i am a complete ass, i have nelson oliveira in the bench. yes he's very unlikely to play but i could have left him for today and replace them afterwards. the stupid machine did this for me = kill itt.

IT MADE PEPE MY CAPTAIN, I AM PISSSED!!

it's supposed to be jordi alba. WTF!

!@#$%! 06.27.2012 05:19 PM

^ looks like a dodgedd a bullet with the 0-0. both alba and pepe got 7 points so i have nothing to cry about.

and oliveira just go 1 point so i'd have replaced him anyway. i'll make sure i confirm my changes tonight. oh yeah.

!@#$%! 07.01.2012 01:41 PM

lololol i got very drunk last night & forgot to update my team. i'm fucked haa haa ha.
