Amazing how quickly all of that pre-draft excitement can vanish

Bloody Sheep Drafts

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in

It's Monday - Generally the excitement is still high in the 4 or 5 rounds. Having a 1st sheep is not the most exciting way of starting a week, but I am always excited by the prospect of explaining you why my sheep is the most underrated player ever in the history of the game.
 
Come Scrappy, wing it and just put a formation up of your side in the match threads

Don't have the time mate. I have never built a proper Diego team and since his death, the urge was only higher. Was the only reason I dipped in for a lottery round.

Moronic as Bepo says, but worth it if it would have worked :D
 
Ah, if only squads and/or unused subs were eligible here...would've been some sweet combos available.

Prepared for incoming sheep here, to be honest. A bit lazy - and rusty.
 
I have never built a proper Diego team...

Ditto - have always wanted to have a go at that.

In fact, I've never drafted him at all (never mind built a proper team around him), iirc

Sheep draft isn't an ideal format for building proper teams, though - so there's that.
 
@FrenchToastMafia - I can see you are a 'newbie'. If you want to be promoted as a full member, just stop blocking the players I want. Thanks

Feck off, Bepo!

@Michaelf7777777 Can you confirm/clarify the rule on this one: Are we stuck with the same tie (we have to pick someone else from the side of our FAILED pick)?

Not 100% clear on that.

Thanks.

They have to meet the criteria in conjunction with the passed pick (so generally same match, but if your passed player has played in 2 World Cup Opening matches (such as the banned Diego Maradona) you can pick a player from teh other tea in either of those two matches.
 
I though if one selection failed, both failed.

That's what I thought too, initially: which is something we haven't had before (I think).

Hence why I called it "harsh":

I figured something like this: You pick A and B. Nobody else picks B...but another manager picks A...and both your picks are down the crapper. You can then pick B again - but you have to match him up with someone else (other than A) from the same match.

Of course, that model would involve a different kind of alert from the draft master, e.g. FAIL (player picked by another manager) and FAIL (player picked in combo with BLOCKED player). Or something.

Gotcha - thanks.
