Surely that one person doesnt have that many sisters, brothers, mothers,fathers,cats,dogs and lamas. I wish i did because i would be able to make 64 teams instead of 3.:p:eek::thumbsu::D:cool:;):rolleyes:

3 teams? That's naughty DWD. Don't you know we're only allowed one each? :D

I'll let this one slide, but I agree with you, one person having 64 teams is a bit much.

As I said, i completely expect FFC to refute this fact. And it is fact. I wouldn't want to be someone else's little monkey either. If you're (i assume you're part of FFC) happy to comply with the compulsory rule of having to run each of your trades by the league ruler then so be it. I prefer my leagues where i'm actually trying to beat everyone else rather than collude in order to pretend to be the best league in the country.

The exact reason i left. Or got banned for that reason, not complying with the master, sir DT, biggest expert going, big headed, arragont, upthemself leader.

Will be interesting when one day both are top 2 coming into the last few rounds and one decided not to give info out and trades are done differently, the ones that losses wont be happy.

So if it has been well documented and it is a fact, then show me the evidence. I know your a smart person in the real world but your really acting like a 12 year old DWD.

This isn't a murder trial buddy. The evidence is in and the jury has spoken. FFC are guilty as charged.

Evidence? Identical sides, uncannily similar trades, several ex-members stating the allegations to be true. Mate, you're better off trying to argue that what you're doing is within reason, you simply aren't going to be able to deny what everyone KNOWS to be true.
 
Footylover has hit this issue on the head.

EDT is about individuals trying to win the cars as the first option, as the natural consequences of excellent performance being highly ranked within EDT and then (hopefully) the league titles follow.

The key here is that it is competition against each other as the main priority, with the end result the consequence of those efforts, whereas the FFC mantra seems to almost be the exact opposite, as anytime there are rules in place on your DT that you have to abide by, then its really not your team anymore.

EDT tries to avoid group think at all costs. FFC encourages it. And really FFC is like the Simpsons all over again, with similarities between teams unusually high as there is common ownership.

Ever thought that group discussion and research could narrow down the possible options. Seemed to work pretty well.

I'm sure you have heard of the phrase 'ignorance is bliss'

That is what I am applying to your posts.

Thanks for informing me, your a Collingwood supporter from Tasmania so it was being applied to your posts since you signed up to this site.

Stopped reading here. What utter complete bullshit.

Huh? You stopped reading after I wrote "it's been well documented"? That's poor form. How do you know I didn't write "it's been well documented that the Pope is Catholic". You would've saved yourself an unnecessary inflammatory response and you would've learnt something.

The three leagues finishing so close to each other is a bit of a give away.

Not to mention that every team is available to the public to look at and follow week by week, or hypothetically ;) perhaps even download to a master spreadsheet that tracks the movements closely.

Nothing like being at the pointy end of the competition to draw attention to yourselves.
 
Well it's nice to see that EDT is worked up over us, we obviously did something right in 2010, maybe even sensing a bit of jealousy. Will be interesting to see the results this season, I've got to go now and get back to my lemming master he is descending from the clouds to deliver us dream team instructions.

I did think of that, but i dismissed it as a reasonable possibility once i realised that there are too many options for a mere "group discussion" to produce the similarity that the teams within your "leagues" produced.

I guess on second thought it is a possibility, but it would mean that the members of FFC are easily influenced by their master and truly lack any sense of individual thinking. So yeh, it's either that The Master is dictating what players are allowed to be included in the initial team and which aren't as well as adjudicating on weekly trades OR that The Master is able to influence his subjects by Jedi mind tricks into picking who he wants them to pick. Both pretty much equally terrible in my humble opinion.

Even if I was to get screen prints of our sides from round 1 and 22 to see that they are different you would still just make up something else.

Let's just wait and see what your "league" teams look like this year. Anything other than the normal degree of variation between the teams and it will be clear as anything that FFC teams collude.
