Ronan we don't want too many people, at least not to start. Ideally I would like to get us to a point where we score each others matches. So say I'm playing you and Fresh and 123 are playing each other. We both score their match (allows for mistakes) and they both score ours. Why Yahoo don't do this with Footy I will never know. Also the Bundesliga only has 18 teams meaning they play 34 games as opposed to 38 in the other leagues. To compensate for this we will use random.org to pick random "bonus" weeks where 4 weeks this season players in the Bundesliga will score double points.
so lets say i pick chelsea cause i dig the jerseys, and then sir alex as my manager. The manager is the only thing that does anything for me? The club is just for fun/to go with my country?
Inter win = Mourinho 1 win. United lose = Ferguson 1 loss. That's it. Managers are like middle relievers if you like. You only really buy them for one main stat in this case wins/losses in the case of MR, holds.
Bingo. All it is is identity and nationality (which determines where your 4 homegrown players have to be from) I'll put an example score sheet together below:
AJAX 4-4-2 Manager: Mourinho - 1 win Van Der Sar [HG] - 1 clean sheet Taye Taiwo - 4 - goals against 1 Alessandro Nesta - Tackles 7 - Goals against 2 Alex - Tackles 7 - GA 0 (can't get a cleansheet only keepers) Phillip Lahm - Tackles 5 - GA - 1 Van Der Vaart [HG] - 2 assists Wesley Sneijder [HG] - 1 assit 1 goal - 2 tackles Michael Essien - 9 tackles - 1 red card Cristiano Ronaldo - 2 goals - 1 assist Ruud Van Nistelrooy [HG] - 3 goals - Raul - 1 goal - 1 assist FINAL SCORE: Wins: 1 (managers only) Losses: 0 (managers only) Goals For: 7 (all players) Goals Against: 4 (defenders and keepers only) Tackles made: 21 (all players) Red Card: 1 (all players) Own goals: 0 (all players)
You could but you would only be able to buy english players, we can all have the same players and the budgets are very restricting. There is a reason I've gone to all this effort, basically because no one else out there has when it comes to footy.
So how many points per tackle? How many points deducted for goals against, red cards, and cautions? How many points for goals and assists, etc?
Sorry, but I don't think I will have the time to make all the score stuff. But good luck in this league.
It doesn't go on points. It goes on number. So say you are playing me and my team score 12 goals that week and yours score 14, then you win in that category. If you win more categories than me out of the 9 you get the 3 points. If we draw we get a point each, and if you win less categories well...

It means Yahoo have gone to great measure to make fantastic fantasy games for MLB, NFL and NHL (don't know about NBA never played) whereas with footy they have shat in a bowl and tried to pass it off as chocolate ice cream.
