Get your blocks in simultaneously to avoid overlaps!
 
Hang on - every manager blocks two players?

So, 32 players end up being blocked?

Love it. I hate un-blocked players.

But it's pretty radical.

Nice. But clearly insane.

why? everyone(including me) is bitching all the time how they want new players, teams that dont have superstars all over the pitch so this is the chance to do something about it and try it out.

Hey, I'm all for it.

I hate stars.

I just thought it was rather extreme considering...well, the state of most junkies around here. If I have completely misjudged the state of those junkies, then nothing would make me happier - as it would mean they'll be gaggin' for my own draft (which will reflect my distaste for stars no end).

A couple of questions:

- Is it 32, 48 or 48+double-leaguers who are blocked? OP says 32.
- 4 from each league for a 12-man squad. How do reinforcements work? You could in theory end up with 9 Bundesliga players, plus your 8 from the other leagues.

It's 48....we want NEW players not the same also rans!!!

The starting squad needs to have four from each league....after that you can reinforce as you wish but must have 4/4/3 in your starting eleven from the leagues...you choose which league only has three.

Isotope sneaks in...surely best to get all those who originally committed to confirm they are in and then if anyone else pulls out then he's in...or he can AM someone.

Yes. The original crews should get the first seats. Tag me how things are going with this. THanks.

make that 3 at least outfield players from the 3 leagues, otherwise we'll have German keepers all round.

So be it. I'd imagine Bundesliga will be the hardest one to crop players so went with 3 there. I suspect others will block the usual suspects.

Very nice. I have to admit to wavering about joining this one, but this sort of cunning gamesmanship has persuaded me to get stuck in.
 
@Invictus, mate - what the feckin' Jaysus sort of scam are you running here? Two newbies? Who are running as co-managers? And who both - sensationally - are blocking goal keepers?

I like their approach, make no mistake. But I need clarification.

Since they are in it have no problem with blocking whoever they want even Heskey and Platini(even though they are not eligible to all, bar probably Edgar :D) but if they have no right to post I can see some stalling in the picking order as they'd need someone else to pass the picks to...

Wonder if there will be another one to piss everyone off by blocking another set of keepers. :D

...you really need a new thread for this.

Or a name change for the present one.

Answer the above
Change the thread title
Put the new rules in the OP.

New op will be done in the morning. Make blocks on here and will transferred across tomorrow.

New rules will be done then. And yes with the Matthaus query, you could theoretically have him represent one league in one round then another in the following.....providing you meet all other criteria still.

Yeah, but you fail to see the bigger picure here...

Invictus, now officially both the best and worst poster on the Caf, potentially has the power of...doing something...which involves these highly suspicious newbies (who probably don't even exist).

It's unsettling. At best. At worst, it's the beginning of the end of everything we believe in. Which is...drafts. Good and God fearing drafts. He's undermining our very way of life - and you...people...are just sitting there, in your...draft chairs (or draft sofas, which is even worse)...and letting it pass.

Not that I'm surprised. We know - now - to whom anto (the Stalin of the board) passed the mantle.

Valid point. If they lose, then he can conveniently blame it on non-existent newbs and if he makes it to finals, the he can claim to 'take over' the team and lead them to victory. Or maybe he suffers from .Rossi syndrome?

Exactly.

And I still await an explanation from our boy as to what his association with these people (real or not) amounts to.

I'm takin' a stand. Against corruption and non-transparency in the draft world.
