GW16 Free Transfer Poll

GW16 Chip Poll

Injuries

15 August 2011 1214 comments

Paul

Evening all. The FPL have this afternoon issued an apology over the recent log-in debacle and look to have made changes on the back of the weekend’s problems.

The link to the full announcement is highlighted above, so I’ll leave you to check it out for yourselves if you haven’t done so already. The first point (below) means we are all allowed free transfers from now up until the Gameweek 2 deadline on Saturday morning- compensation for many of us who were unable to make those last-minute changes from Friday evening onwards..

1. Receive unlimited transfers
No points will be deducted for any transfers you make up to the Gameweek 2 deadline (11:30 BST on Saturday 20th August 2011). If you have already made transfers and had points deducted, these will be restored to your overall total by midnight on Tuesday 16th August 2011. If you have already opted to play your wildcard, this too will be restored at the same time.

From a Fantasy Football Scout perspective, then, just to assure you- we will be resetting any of our affiliated leagues- they will all now start from Gameweek 2 to ensure a level playing field for those involved.

We’ll have more on this later…

That's ridiculous and I'm furious. I had planned my team so that I sacrificed GW1 in favour of GW2, now it doesn't give me any advantage at all.
How is this wildcard supposed to help those who couldn't log on / register? It just gives another advantage to those who never experienced any problems. If they admit they screwed up, why not to start from the GW2 the whole game, so that everyone is in the same place???
When you think it can't get any worse, it does...

  I think he'll be great. Norwich will be decent at Carrow Road and they play a nice open brand of football, meaning he'll bag a few this year.
  
  For £5.5m, there's not a better option IMO.

  in the hundred RMTs i saw, i don't think one of them had Cahill. I think Mark and Granville had it right exactly when they said he got all the ownership just on the media attention he was getting.

After having a few mins to consider this, and get over the initial excitement of having another week to tinker with my team, realise this is a TERRIBLE idea.

Yes some, like my main rival (also good friend and so annoyed for him) couldnt log in and finish team, have been caught out.

But most people (ie, not people who use or know about FFS) couldnt enter a team, and so not only do they miss gw1 scores, but now are up against the majority who had a team (even it was just autocomplete) with points from gw1, and a free wildcard to make any necessary changes. This is even more unfair on them.

Bad move FPL.

P.S - going to love changing my team however this week!

This fails to address the issue about mini-league head-to-head fixtures. Has anyone had their head-to-head fixtures set yet? If so, am I doing something wrong as league administrator? Please comment to reassure me that I haven't cocked this up.

Just as I thought we wouldn't be seeing any more RMTs for a while... It's good in a way though, can build up some team value and get rid of Drogba, Kenny, Formica, Nani...

All of that careful planning and risk taking a waste of time then. Great. Do they not realise how much time I spent setting up my team to be able to bring in either Drog or Torres in GW2! On the plus side, another week of RMTs then...

  I had left 2m in the bank to do this too, but then I couldn't access the site on Friday/Saturday, so I am in favour of this unlimited transfers move, can understand why people are pissed, but, I think where many people didn't have the team they wanted at the start of the season because of login errors, it is fair to start afresh.

I'm really confused by this reset whatever you want to call it. A lot of people on the forums are calling it an additional WC, but in the apology cited above it says that additional transfers would not be penalized, which makes sense considering there are plenty of people who may not be RMT fanatics like everyone here. Are there any other details.

Think about this: Robin Van Persie is about to become a HUGE differential. EVERYONE will have Rooney, RVP on the verge of two tough games but after that, he'll probably be at around 5% ownership and ready to go.

Still, not sure I'm prepared to pay 12.0 for a man who isn't in a top three side.

But have they fixed the bug that allows others to see your moves?

If not, then the un-level playing field continues as those who know of the glitch exploit it for all its worth vs. their less compulsive/more knowledgeable rivals.

Can anyone confirm for me re: the glitch? [No one in my mini-league has made changes yet]

  Just go transfer mental, you know you want to. And, yes I have.
  The transfer numbers are moving... Alternatively, this is an elaborate hoax and everyone is in on it apart from you.
  Ultimately, make the transfers, then just go "batshit crazy" if you are deducted points and they can't fix their horrible site.

Hi I neeed some advice

Who is a better duo at the moment:

1) Modric & Suarez

or

2) Malouda & Zamora

For me I've currently got option two but feel it could actually be better with option one but want to see if anyone can help me see something I'm missing.

As much as this is slightly annoying given I think my team is in a stronger position than most in my league for next week and the following weeks, i.e I've not gone for many punts like Torres Drogba etc overall I think it's fair.

Won't be resetting points for GW2 onwards though
