We're live with our Premiership game:
http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/premier/fantasy
Please note that I HAVE listened to many of you regarding PFT, and tried to balance things out. We're issuing all managers 2 free trades per week, and putting a cap on the total number of trades you can buy. We're still learning here, but we DO listen.
Also, the game includes stats like passes completed and tackles -- it's a much more comprehensive game than our Global Soccer Challenge.
We hope you enjoy it!

Ok I guess it's time to put up a "no extra trades" -division... as a matter of fact I already did.
Division name: Rotoguru NET

By the way, it says one free trade per week on the page... so which one is it, one or two?

Apologies, I meant to write: 2 free transfers to start, and 1 additional transfer per week.

erik, give us a last answer on the prize's question.......so??....please, allow us to buy a team!!! it would cost 10 bucks instead of the 15 of the prize, and we don't want the cash remaining.....;-)

Erik, I have seen that you added UK in the eligible countries. How about other european countries or from other parts of the world?
Not that the price really matters but this is really an opportunity for TSN to go international. I can gamble, play backgammon for money, bet on any games in the world. Why such a restriction on other countries?

Lazio:
Final answer, for the time being, is "no." We're stuck with the decisions made by our General Counsel.
Coolio:
We'd like to add other countries, but we have to look into each one of their gambling laws, and that takes time and resources. Certainly, we won't add a Serie A game, for example, without allowing prize eligibility in Italy.

I can't answer that question, mIST. But you'd also have to have your friend's name.

erik, last question: if i have an american friend living here in italy, can you send the check to him here instead that in the u.s.a.?? he's a u.s. citizen, so there should be no problems because the check would be named to him. It'll be just sent to his address in italy.....so, is it possible??

Erik, I keep getting an "Internal Server Error" when i try to look at my squad. It could be that I have what would be considered an illegal roster, having 12 players on it (as mentioned in an above post) Regardless, I can access my other teams, just not this one. Any chance you could wipe this team for me so that I could play? :)
Team Name: "the black hand"

Can you guys try creating a new team? I think the 12th man issues is creating a problem.
Lazio: Unfortunately, no. We need to ship the prize to a legal address for our game. So your "friend" would need to then ship it overseas from there.

Ok, I need feedback on my team:
S Team Next Game Last Total Per Game Sell For:
Owen, Michael Liv 08/18 @ AV 0 2048 0 £8,192,000
Heskey, Emile Liv 08/18 @ AV 0 1530 0 £6,120,000
Anelka, Nicolas MC 08/17 @ LU 0 642 0 £2,568,000

Acimovic, Milenko Tot 08/17 @ Eve 0 0 0 £2,000,000
Geremi Mid 08/17 @ Sou 0 0 0 £1,500,000
D Team Next Game Last Total Per Game Sell For:

Xavier, Abel Liv 08/18 @ AV 0 794 0 £3,176,000

K Team Next Game Last Total Per Game Sell For:
Friedel, Brad BR 08/17 Sun 0 2178 0 £6,456,000
My thought is that I wanted to lock in a few sure things (Viera, Owens, Heskey), and then rotate out of cheap midfielders with good upside. Thoughts?

My main concern,Erik,would be how long Xavier can hold his spot after a poor game on Sunday.Babbel and Carragher are both returning to full fitness.

Agreed. I wasn't sure about him. Is there another defender at that price range that you like?

I have Ozalan from Aston Villa. I have no idea if he is slated to start though.

Just saw Ozalan is asking for permission to transfer - maybe to Dortmund, so, I am now looking for a new player.

Erik-Xavier is definately a risk with the competition at Liverpool, someone like Woodgate at Leeds could be a good buy, with Ferdinand gone he has the chance to re-establish himself as a top quality centre back. I also wouldn't have Heskey as a sure thing, he struggled at times last year, and with Diouff coming in for £10m there is bound to be some rotation of the strikers.

If we have success with the Premiership game, we will consider building a Serie A game for il ritorno (the second half of the season). Ditto for Champion's league.
Quik:
There is a cap for total transfers purchased. I forget what it is, but it's posted on the site.

Woodgate is likely to miss saturday's opener as he gashed his leg against Celtic, needed 9 stitches... Not that this should affect anybody's drafting process, just FYI.
