Free Agents v.1

[Colt Python]

We have reached the point where the original squads have been picked and you scavengers still want more. But you won’t be given players on a plate, you will have to work for your rewards (or not if you have a good knowledge of players).

These are the rules, simplified for the “slower” members. Just kidding.

Rule 1: THERE IS NO FREE AGENT LIST. Anyone who posts a list of players will be punished.

Rule 2: You must pick a player from memory basically, this is a test of how many class players you can remember that haven’t been chosen.

Rule 3: You must post this player immediately in the thread. First come, first served. Failure to post immediately could result in you losing out. Remember and update your balance.

Rule 4: ALL players cost 10m regardless of stature in the game.

Rule 5: You can remove deadwood from your team as part exchange, this will reduce the cost of the player to 5m. Players released will be priced at 5m for others to purchase.

Rule 6: You have 5 players MAX to pick, anymore than that is not allowed. You can only buy one player per post and CANNOT post consecutively you must wait for at least one other member to post before buying another player.


The chase for players will commence on Sunday 15th at 16:00pm British time, 08:00am American and 01:00am Monday 16th Australian.

EXAMPLE

John Hartson bought by Colt Python no part exchange - 10m.


That was painless! :)

[Highway Penguin]

Sweet.
Any questions?

Sounds simple enough. ;)

[Yossi]

Damn! Picking starts right in the middle of Norwich's biggest match for years. I've got to hope no-one picks the player I'm considering getting before I get here.

[soliloquay]

Great idea. So one post does it all right?

[Colt Python]

One player per post Sol.

[soliloquay]

One player per post Sol.

so it's like five consecutive posts? :D

[Guillermo]

Shouldn't we have it so that when we post one player, we have to wait for someone else to pick a player before we post again.

e.g. I pick ????

next post: colt picks ??

so then i can post again - ???

[Phatmann2003]

I think that would be a good idea.

[soliloquay]

that should be the way if the time-ticker is on

[Colt Python]

No a bad idea Haribo... I'll update the rules.

[Guillermo]

Sorry about my msn fellas, its crashing persistently. I'm trying to get a conversation going for us all, so we dont have to post in this thread.

[pier69]

i like ur sig colt , the number 4 in chinese culture means "death" so this game is really cool . btw , are we gonna post our picks in this thread ?

[soliloquay]

At what time do I start choosing guys? at 4 or at 5?

[Colt Python]

i like ur sig colt , the number 4 in chinese culture means "death" so this game is really cool . btw , are we gonna post our picks in this thread ?Yes, then update your balance

At what time do I start choosing guys? at 4 or at 5? 4pm British time, probably 5pm where you are.

[soliloquay]

Ok Colt. let's hope i don't enter at five and see that i'm fucked :ohmy:

[Colt Python]

Check a time zone website for the correct time.

[Figо10]

The chase for players will commence on Sunday 15th at 16:00pm British time, 08:00am American and 01:00am Monday 16th Australian.
The times are those used on this forum right?

[Colt Python]

Yes, but I can only go on what mine says. So check a timezone website to compare to british time from where you are.

[Scarface]

This should be good fun, but what can be done to stop people editing posts? Fair enough if they post a player which was picked just above them seconds before, so change it to someone else, but what if someone posts a player, but then sees someone chose someone better just after them so they edit their post to pick that player. :unsure:

[Lorenzinho]

Yeah. Good point Reyes. I think PM'ing is a better idea. But ach well...

[Figо10]

Yes, but I can only go on what mine says.
The times on this forum are the same if we choose the same range of places, isn't it Colt?

Why not we all set our times on this forum to the British time, then use that to show us the time?

Is that fine with you?

[Colt Python]

I guess that's fine, if people want.

[Colt Python]

There is no deadline at the moment, only a 5 pick max rule.

[Ronaldo 9]

Diego Placente for 5m

PS: He was released by Haribo, so that's why he's 5m.

[Usul]

There is no deadline at the moment, only a 5 pick max rule.

Ok, my bad.

[Figо10]

[Figо10]

#%@*! I really wanted that guy. He must have released him without me noticing.
Yeah I saw that guy somewhere before. Don't think it's posted on the released players thread either :D

[Scarface]

I'm pretty sure no-one has ever had him.

[Yossi]

Letterbomb picked Quaresma (http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?t=23060&highlight=Quaresma).

He never released him though (I can't find anywhere where he did), but he isn't in Letterbomb's team thread, and wasn't in his latest squad. So does he belong to Letterbomb or Nedy? :confused: And we can't ask Letterbomb because he is away.

[Highway Penguin]

Since Letter is away and has told me he has no aspirations to come back and play, Nedy gets him.

That reminds me....

[pier69]

[Scarface]

[Highway Penguin]

Nothing is free.

You must pay either 5m + a player or just 10m.

Please make sure you follow the rules. Dan has Maicon as well. 99% sure.

[pier69]

Not a valid reason. Void transfer.

PS-

Ronaldo, you need to put a player down as well, or the fee is 10m.

Rule 5: You can remove deadwood from your team as part exchange, this will reduce the cost of the player to 5m. Players released will be priced at 5m for others to purchase.

I released him, so doesn't that mean he can sign him for £5 mil?

[Yossi]

Yes, I believe Ronaldo is within his rights to sign Kluivert for only £5m.

[Highway Penguin]

My bad I didn't realize he was released.

Sorry Ronaldo.

[Ronaldo 9]

My bad I didn't realize he was released.

Sorry Ronaldo.

it's alright holmes.. not a problem.

[Preki-USA]

[Scarface]

No, the transfer window is closed. We have to wait until the end of the season.

I think you've got the wrong thread mate ;) This is for the Fantasy League, not the Dream Team.

http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?t=25085 <<You'd be better off posting in that thread.

[Phatmann2003]

Can I get free agents now that the season is finished? I'll have Park £1m :cool:

[Phatmann2003]

Have Coupet or Borgetti been picked? if not I'll have them both - £2m.

[Colt Python]

Uh... when have free agents become £1m?

[Nedy]

Phat Coupet is already in Teekay´s squad......can we picked free agents now?

[Yossi]

The transfer window opens when the cup final is finished I thought we all agreed?

[Highway Penguin]

Aye.

After the last match is played.

James and I will announce.


Yes, 1m for a free player.

[Nedy]

Ok....

[Usul]

I want to know the exact date, people. And a few days before if possible. Non of that last minute announcement kinda thing. The precise time in hours and minutes would be lovely too...

EDIT:I've tried to edit announcement a few times but it stays the same...!?

Ok it works now...

[Preki-USA]

YES! TIME AND DATE OF THE TRANSFER WINDOW OPENING

lets figure it out now

[Scarface]

Probably Sunday the 13th or Monday the 14h of November, but everyone will be let known the exact time and date nearer the time. Also depends on how much longer it's going to take to settle the final Quarter-final match.

[Highway Penguin]

There is still time guys. We've got to get ready for the window to open.

By that I mean I need to update everyone's finances so we have no trouble. We have to set up new threads. Update the players taken lists. Etc.

You will all be told a week in advance the time of the window. :)

[Phatmann2003]

Sorry guys, it's just I saw a few people offering for players and assumed that the window was open :(

Teekay, you'd be interested in selling Coupet?

Not trying to be bickering or anything, but I think that is kinda crap, cause I won't be in on those 2 days, resulting in me not having a chance of getting the players I want. Could we not work around everyone to try and sort as good a date and time as possible, just remember other people have other things to do appart form this.

made this thread to discuss possible dates for the re-open:
