Whenever I try to amend my first post with the updated table, the code appears on the post instead of the table, I've even tried copying the above html tags but they just disappear. Other types of brackets don't seem to work. Can you fix it Big D?  :003:

[CaleyD]

Have sorted it.  Looks like the security features on the forum which prevent users from posting rogue code which could cause issues is preventing anyone other than Admin from using the html tags (even though I am editing someone esles posts it recognises that it was admin and allows it).

I'll try and remember to update the table frequently.

I've also removed the off-topic posts, if people want to argue then take it to PM so the rest of us don't have to suffer it.  If you don't like what someone else is posting, then put them on ignore.

[Mee]

Good work D!

Shame you're not removing shyte posts too, then I wouldn't need to put Smee on ignore  :015:

[Hiro]

Anyone figured out how to make todays transfers yet? When I log in it still shows my team from a few days ago. This has obviously changed and I need to sort it for today!!

[SMEE]

I just made changes regardless as i was in same boat as you. Its a pisser...as I dont know if David villa is still in my team or not, as i had transferred him the other day, but he is still showing as in my team 2 days after i transferred him out. So i just left him in my team hoping they wouldnt notice

[Hiro]

Thats what I'm gonna have to do. My problem is that my stars are distributed around in such a way that means I can't make the transfers I wanted.

[CaleyD]

From what I can understand, just make your transfers as normal and the system will catch up with itself.

I'd wait until the last moment to see if the system catches up as it will very likely screw up somewhere, but as someone who has had to deal with these things, when it goes wrong you have to make decisions which won't always please everyone and cause some confusion.  From the way I understand it, they either continued to generate a backlog with the e.mail transfers or they set the game live again and play catch-up.  Not ideal, but probably the only realistic option they had.

For those losing sleep over it, it's only a game, nobody will die as a result of it....unless it's you for giving yourself a coronary.

It's the same circumstances for everyone playing, so take a deep breath, relax, make your transfers and realise that come tomorrow it may look a bit different because they've been catching up with the e.mail transfers.

Thats losers talk! 

Only kidding :002:

I'm more confused than anything else. I've figured it out eventually though.

[SMEE]

I dont think anyones "losing sleep over it" D...just confused as to where they stand regarding their teams. As far as the earlier over the top personal abuse from Mee goes, If i want to air my annoyance at the fact a site doesnt do wat it says on the tin....then i will! this is a forum after all, for posting opinions, at least, it was the last time i looked!

Wonder who you might be referring to?  :015: :015: :015:

[Caley]

Good luck to the Metro people in processing 300,000 transfer request emails. If they get through 1500 a day they'll have it all done by Christmas.  :001:

[SMEE]

See on the page that displays your team...in the same line telling you how many transfers left....it says i have 105 pts, but when i go to the mini league, it says i got 83pts :024:

Anyone elses the same?

[RiG]

I've given up on this game for many reasons:

1) The site was far too unreliable.

2) The one on Euro2008.com is far better.

3) I had forgotten to make any changes.

4) My team is doing pish!  :015:

I'll still chip in a fiver though (somehow).

I was just about to post the same thing (except Euro2008.com since I never tried there)

[SMEE]

Folks...your dicing with death. I dared to state how unreliable i found the site and was subjected to an OTT personal abuse attack from Mee. BE WARNED!

[Mee]

Never saw the Euro2008.com one RiG, you should've posted a link!

I went into negative points last night  :019: :019: :019:

[RiG]

It's on the official Euro2008 site. I'm doing okay in it but this last round of games is going to hurt me as a lot of my players are being rested for the next round  :007:

[Alex MacLeod]

Gary Donaldson,

Apologies for declining your request to enter the league but I did put a closing date for entries and it would be unfair to the others if you were now included. Hope you can understand this

Alex

[SMEE]

REMEMBER FOLKS......the 12 changes we have now have to stretch across ALL 4 quarter finals!

Obviously people are still playing this then :004:

[Mee]

Aye, we're no all as flighty as you!!!!

Congrats to Craig who has a phenomenal amount of points!

Are you any relation to Stephen and Ant????  :003:

[Alex MacLeod]

Not sure if the Metro results have been fully updated yet so I'll give them a couple of days then with info gleaned from CaleyD I will announce the winner of the shirt and arrange delivery. Alex

[Mee]

Well done Craig!  :003:
