Euro: Pick'Em and Fantasy Teams 

Post#1 » by BlackMamba » Wed May 28, 2008 11:21 pm

Are you a passionate or a rational fan?

For the WC we had the predictor which I think was fun to do and to at the end compare how off or close we were to the actual results. So why not test our knowledge again!

Thanks to magik9113 for creating the groups:

I found that fantasy game rather disappointing, too much money and too little variance of player values.

Just so much, i wont get hyped up when C. Ronaldo scores, just maybe for the guy delivering the ball ;)

I agree. They should have thought it out more and perhaps have the more expensive players with even higher salaries to eliminate the fact that there is too much money.
For the leagues they had it so the values of the players doing well/bad would increase/decrease which was a better, but this is obviously too short to have that.

soccernet fantasy is annoying, the official uefa one is a lot better and easier to use.
