Rob S · 07-03-2009, 10:16 PM

cool. I think what I am going to do is install the country rule, but allow each team to have 2 players any 2 countries of their choosing.

For instance:

You can have 2 Spanish players and 2 Frenchies, but then you can only take 1 from every other country.

Like this setup or want something more traditional?

Cigaro · 07-03-2009, 10:24 PM

I'd rather have something more traditional.

Rob S · 07-03-2009, 10:25 PM

alright, we can vote on it when we get everyone in......I just wanted to switch it up a little.

cool. Hopefully UK and Woot can join.

UKfan · 07-04-2009, 11:42 AM

UK is in the hizouse! And I don't care what format we do, mixing it up would be good, I know we did U-23's before, maybe do Rob's thing so the same players don't go in same place all the time. Screw it make it so you can only have players who's nationality begins with a Z!!

You've got Zaire too.

That may be just a bit to restrictive, but maybe something like we have to pick a team and then we have to use the proposed 6+5 rule? Personally, I think doing it without restrictions would be better though.

zaire isnt called zaire anymore, its congo now (just like their neighbours, all totally not confusing

UKfan · 07-04-2009, 12:17 PM

I was playing with the Z thing :-)

wicket · 07-04-2009, 12:19 PM

i know but it is fun to respond serious on such a thing anyway

Caddy · 07-05-2009, 12:28 AM

BTW we should definitely do the nationality thing.

Rob S · 07-05-2009, 09:36 AM

UK is in, and I want to change it up for sure. I like the nationality idea personally. 6-5 would is a good concept, but it wouldnt be fair as someone would get a fairly average nation that they need 6 players from and someone would get Spain.

Rob S · 07-05-2009, 09:37 AM

Screw it, I say we do the country idea. It switches things up. So, the official rule is you can only select 1 player from each country, except for 2 wildcard picks which can duplicate a country.

wicket · 07-05-2009, 09:38 AM

no 2 players from the same club team?
