I like how I scored 9 points today (for 8 on the week) and... didn't move. Whoo 
After reading integral's post, I'm more or less sold on the banking idea. Part of me doesn't like it because if you screw up your opening team, you ought to pay for it, right? But most of me looks at things like SKT's horrific performance the first two weeks, says, "There's no way to predict that," and would really like some way to make up for things like that. Of course it raises questions like how many trades are now allowed, can bank points go towards team trades, etc. but that can be worked out.
I still like the anti-team the way it is though.
As far as team scoring, here's my idea to "close the gap": make it like player scoring: +3 points for a win is the base, then add or dock points for margin of victory:
3-0 - 6 points
3-1 - 5 points
3-2 - 4 points
But what to do with the losses? I really don't like the current system where you can lose points from your main team (just like I don't like the idea of getting points for your anti-team), and a loss is a loss:
0-3 - 0 points
1-3 - 0 points
But if it goes to ace:, that's worth something - so give it ace points, just like a player.
2-3 - 1 point. Maybe two.
|
i like the 0 to 5 range. 0-3 is 0 points, 1-3 1 points. etc
it would low tier teams like ACE viable options..
right now the top 100 is a few people SKT, like 80 or so people KT, and then a few different miscellaneous teams. pretty boring if you ask me.
edit
the flaw with diluting team point scoring is that it makes so called "predictions" of well-performing teams less important. it's definitely arguable that predicting well performing teams should be a big part of FPL, as it has been in the past.

haha i traded KT for Oz, well both did bad but i could've had any team i wanted with KT, i also traded Hyuk away just to see him beat JD (again).
took the risk, knew that if it fails i'd fall out of the competition, but still 0-3 Oz ;<
probably the grand error i made was making JD my captain, suddenly all the zergs have caught up to him atleast in ZvZ. my objective now is to make it in the top100 somehow!

My failure (not clicking the confirmation button) to trade Luxury for Leta is costing me massive points! On the other hand, my decision to kick out Justin from my anti for Jaehoon is paying off handsomely and Jaedong completely failed to meet people's expectations. 
By the way, since I am really new here, do we get to choose completely new teams after Round 1 is over? I would like to start up fresh again after learning some tough lessons during this round.
|
generally it goes by round, so yes it will almost certainly start over for next round.
|
Oh boy did I get fucked yesterday?
I had Kt Rolster, Jaedong, Stats, Killer, Fantasy. They gave a combined points of 0. And thats pretty bad comsidering all my players (but two) were in action.

That's not entirely true -- Fantasy got you two points, 1 for lineup and 1 for team win.
|
Ehh... Can we already start a new round?

[2009-10-26 W3D3] MBC 3-2 WEM | SAM 3-2 ACE
Tonight the dream died for WeMade, whose 3-0 season came to an end with a loss to MBC. Who would have thought Hyun of all players would ace and win? Roro keeps sliding while Mind continues to roll. In the other match, ACE looked like it was going to 3-0 but Samsung rallied behind their big three of FBH, Stork, and Great. Tonight was a night where nobody in the Top 20 moved very much. Check out Fantasy PL creator Semioldguy sitting pretty at #5 and yours truly (Hot_Bid) at #21.

Round 2 will come faster than you think -- Round 1 is already halfway over.
We're in the process of putting storing previous season's results in your profile, so don't give up! Just try to finish as high as you can.

Oh shit I went from like #1010 to #699. Great day for me. Samsung (finally) wins, Mind and Stork won, etc. My team is looking better every day but unfortunately having SangHo on my anti-team as well as Yarnc and KHAN on my main team has been crippling.
|
Ugh, RorO playing instead of Shine totally kicked me in the face. Light failing at TvP as well. Just need to stay Top 100 this week to come back, but this is not a good week. x.x

This is by far the worst season I've had so far... Not just that I forgot to change my picks on time, every single time I did trade it ended up for worse... My AT trades: whenever I picked a guy (who hasn't been winning much or at all lately or didn't even appear) he won the next game he was in, the guys on MT that I got rid of suddenly started winning etc. etc.
Trade Gain: -14
|
Sub-total: 65 (yeah...)
Score 43... Noooooooooooooo
|
I will never gamble and put Sea in my anti-team again. Congratz Sea you have given me -14 points.
