Now onto the admin side.

• The idea is to pick a team of 11 players from the Champions League era
• You will be looking to pick the best players you possibly can for your team for all areas: goalkeeper, defenders, midfielders and attackers
• The player is picked based upon their performances at their time for the season you chose him for (i.e. if you pick Andriy Shevchenko for AC Milan, his form at Kiev and Chelsea does NOT come into the equation during the competition).
• You need to select at least one player from the top 5 league in Europe: Premier League (England), La Liga (Spain), Seria A (Italy), Bundesliga (Germany) and Ligue 1 (France).
• For the season that the player is picked, he must have reached at least the quarter final stage of the competition
• Each player, must have played in at least one Champions League final.
• Number 1 gets first pick, Number 2 gets second pick, Number 3 gets third pick and so on....
• When offline, each member will get 2 hours to make their pick, if you miss the window then your pick will be chosen by the Rexdomizer ™.
• If the next picker is online and active in discussion he has only 20 minutes to make his pick
• The game will be frozen each night at 9pm GMT and resume at 9am GMT the following morning. You are still free to make your pick in this period if you want to but are under no obligation to do so.
• The draft order will be drawn at random and will follow the 3rd round reverse snake format. So the same as last time where we flip the order after the second round. This should stop anyone building up an unfair advantage by going first.
• The season of your player must have reached one of the below stages depending on when that season falls...

Prior to 1994-95: Quarter finals
1994-95 to 1998-99: Semi finals
1999-2000 to 2002-03: 2nd group stage
2003-04 to present day: Quarter finals

• AGAIN, You need to draft a starting XI and five outfield substitutes. The 17th round will consist of backup goalkeepers. You have to draft one Goalkeeper in the first 11 rounds.

That’s it for now. The game will hopefully start at 12 noon GMT on Thursday. That should give everyone enough time to figure out the rules and make plans. We may start earlier depending on sign up.

As I’ve said above there will be a definitive result this time! I’ve set up a custom league ready to be simulated, I just have to add your players once selected and fingers crossed we’ll have the results and champion before the Leeds match

Thanks everyone and enjoy the game!

Do you want to go with @Trilly maybe?

Just in case you two don’t have a lot of time. I’ll be on here more during this time obviously.

I thought Trilly was your partner

I’ll go solo, it’s fine

Yeah just meant that if you both had less time you could make a whole person if that makes sense.

But ok cool

 

[pigge]

[A_G]

Damn, I knew he hated me.

It wasn’t a dig, I swear. I thought you and Rex were a team fr.

@2Smokeyy as a neutral pick a number between 1 and 526 for @Riou pick

 

[Trilly]

Lovely that Riou is unavailable. Being 8th in round 1 was horrible luxk

 

[Farzad Stoned]

@albakos lol, Red card magnet good man. Ok since you guys went to all the effort to satisfy the whims of an obviously narcissistic madman; F it if i can find a eurozone teammate to cover my graveyard shift I will do it. Who lives in Europe or Africa and would like to team up? Now that got some redcards out of this if i can sleep during competition as picking starts at 1 am my time and ends 1 pm, i am in. I am more than willing as long as I don’t have trade sex or sleep for this Rex Bezos Production, god help me.

Lol wrong thread typical no weed in me yet my brain don’t function

 

[2Smokeyy]

@2Smokeyy as a neutral pick a number between 1 and 526 for @Riou pick

You’ll be up at the end of the next round.

 

[Rex Stone]

[Juan Matas Beard]

[Juan Matas Beard]

[Farzad Stoned]

Ok you’re joined up with @Riou

Thanks bro

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Putting it out there right now, we break out fast at 14:52 GMT. If any of you f*ckers think I'm responding before I've 16:00 GMT, you've got another thing coming.

Therefore, it's only fair I get a special dispensation in spite of the fact that I'm constantly online (due to me forgetting my password & not being interested in updating it)

 

[bingobob]

I'll try and take part

 

[Rex Stone]

Ok so on reflection I think it makes sense to just do one player per club rather than club and nationality.

So for example @Juan Matas Beard can pick another Portuguese player but not another Real Madrid player.

Also they’ve got their La Liga player sorted as well.

 

[Rex Stone]

I'll try and take part

Ok cool mate as we’ve started you can go 10th after @Sapient Hawk at the end of the round then you’ll have another pick straight after to kick off round 2.

@albakos can you add Bob to the table?
