I have just stumbled across a new game. This one lets us play round by round!! I'm not sure whether we can have our own division but this game looks really good.
The game does not start until round 3 so take a look and see what you think.

new fantasy game!!

frank, it looks like game 1 lets you have your own division with a total of 10 teams. looks good.

Looks like if I read the rules correctly that if we played game 1, each player could only be owned by 1 of the 10 teams, but we could trade and drop/add weekly. Game 2 is similar to the game we're playing in that you draft 30 players and pick 22 to start each week. Game 3 allows you to pick 30 new players each week, but only keeps stats for each week, not for the full season.

Don't see much point to playing game 2, since it's about the same as the afl.com.au game. Game 3 would be OK but would require somebody here to keep stats for the full season, and I wouldn't ask anyone to do that.

Game 1 looks pretty solid all the way around. If we can get 10 people playing total, that would be a lot of fun. Count me in!

I tried to get a division started for the EFF in game 1, but you guessed it, the site is down already. Oh well, back to my beer.

I got a league started in game one. We need 8 people to get this going.
The league name is EFF Footy Heads and the code is 536005.
I think this is the better game, so I hope we can get 8 people interested.

I hope some of you have joined by the time I get up in the morning, so we can get our season underway.

Has anyone heard from Permdude or Tim G lately?

I'll be joining as soon as things slow down here at work Frank p. I apolgize for the new site, I see individual totals have been calculated but they have not listed team totals or league standings. We may have to calculate our team totals ourselves. I can already see their point weighting gives much different results for the same player's performance in the AFL fantasy site.
Nathan Buckley had a studly total in the new league!

The site says that an anouncement re prizes will be made shortly.

Personally, my main aim in playing is taking my fellow EFF members to the cleaners. :)

Frank p, I entered the new game but it would not let me join your league, it created a league of my own and offered to let me invite friends. I suggest since you started an EFF league, we provide you with our e-mail addresses and you send us an invite to join your league. In the FAQ section it was explained that is how you can have all your friends in same league. Let's lobby friends to provide their e-mail so we can fill the eight.
I'll start: edperl@msn.com

Is it me, or do I need to make up an address and phone number in Australia to register? It looks like there's no provision for Yanks in the register process.

That's 6, we need 2 more.

Frank, I'm in, and this league is definitely the easiest to join! I was done picking in less than fifteen minutes. I am officially ending my association with the Ozsportnet game. It has very confusing interaction with the user and the points clearly are screwed up. This new one seems like it is run much better. I'll stay with this game and AFL's game. Should be a great season.

BTW, I watched the Power-Lions game on Fox Sports World last night. Well, not the whole game. They condensed it down to two hours. But it was excellent. The Power look very strong, despite the loss to the Bombers.

Edperl, I got you email away finally. :))

We need one more if Yohan takes up the offer and then we can start picking players etc.

Rugg, Essendon were awesome last night. We threw everything at them and they just weathered the storm each quarter and then blew us away. The final result was flattering to us as the Bombers took the foot off the pedal for the last 20 minutes. At least we ran the game out right to the end and didn't just give up like we used to.
