NoPace was here 12 minutes ago asking for clarifications.
Hehe...yeah, I thought about that myself when browsing through certain matches.
Boom boom 
Here we go...half n' half. There will be goats in them there hills...
Great move Harms, was one of my favourites out there. Tough luck, but still very fecking good outcome!
@sajeev just won the lottery. Un-fecking-believable what pairings must have gone through here! Woo-hoo!
So @kps88 who researched his picks in ten minutes passed. Instinct is key!
Must be quite a few great pairings still out there.

@Skizzo shouldn't you take NoPace's and Raees' selections into consideration if they have sent theirs before the deadline?
I'm assuming we were not one of the "safe" picks?You guys are taking the piss with this now
Just sent them in. I left them at home and I'm at work here in my Non-Euro time zone
Dang.
If they had anything turned in before I showed up today, then yes, I would have let it slide. NoPace sent his results in now, which I edited into the results above. If Raees wants to turn something in now, it's a bit unfair since he can see all the blocked answers already. Not suggesting he would cheat and change..but it leaves the possibility open.
Oh dear. That '86 business is ugly. Three managers, all need two players. And there are five available.
Baaaaaaaaah.
Baaaaaaaaah.
Good luck working out where to go safely next, the number of missing blocked names is unnerving.
The funny thing is, now that I look back at it...only MDFC would technically be considered "safe". All the other passes just seemed to hit the jackpots and avoid each other.

What do you think Sageev pulled off?
If Raees submits now you could use as a 2nd round pick.
Shhh, don't give it away.

Can you cut the spoilers, please. Thanks. I know my being late didn't help with this, but it's an unfair advantage for those picking in the 2nd round (like me now) if we have any hint that the field is weaker or stronger. Like counting cards.
Nah, it's only Boris and Harms needing an additional player and they will be going for them unchallenged as no one is getting into their games now. I think we can officially announce @harms goalie, no?
Ok, as far as the deadlines, what would make things easier for everyone/most people? Would making the deadline for each round set at 9pm GMT mean everyone can get home and research things in time? And then the 2nd and 3rd stage picks 12 hours each after that?
For the love of Jesus, can I just be @Edgar Allan Pillow 's AM?
Sent.
I know what he pulled off! I gave him a hand with his research as I'm conscious he has worried before about playing given the research time required. Brilliant picks, balls of steel that man has...
His goalie? I had the pick nailed as something else???? a CB
actually think I know his picks. There were 2 pairs of OMG that went through I think.
Yeah, that CB pick only allows for a keeper pick now.
No spoiler mate, I'm just winding you guys up. That's 90% of the fun.
Question, may have been answered already, since I have one player, do I have to pick from the same game, or can I use this player and one from a different game.
Gotta pick from the same game until all those options are exhausted. Once those options are gone, then you pick the same round game from a different WC.
Of course, but he now has to pick from that game, and everyone bar the goalie is blocked.
Yerwhatnow? Matthaus and Maradona, right? Four men picked those two (not three as stated). Unless I'm thinking of the wrong match, this is surely a complete meltdown?
Sent
Double block means they can pick something completely different.
I'm fine with that.
Basically you have to pick out of that game minus Thuram and Ronaldo. Obvious CB is obvious, unless you want two RBs.
