[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Picking Sauce is looking like a really, really bad call.

And who got immunity for having Callinan as their pick?

I had him as my sub, but Walker got me through to next week as my main pick. Now we need him to kick 3 goals at least in the last to give us a sniff

He had the most picks this week at 16 :/

 

[JP Sauce]

Not fussed about being out. Off to Europe after the West Coast game anyway so I wanted to take some risks early.

 

[JP Sauce]

Hahaha and I'm alive! Cheers whoever kicked that in.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Well... that was craptacular. Not quite the goalfest we had in mind. Callinan did kick the first goal of the match though which was a consolation for some of us.

Goalkickers: Walker 3, Vince 2, Dangerfield 1, Douglas 1, Sloane 1, Wright 1, Callinan 1, Porplyzia 1, McKernan 1, Tippett 1.

Already ditched the sub rule Carl?
I thought there was a rule for no changing rules mid-comp
Or did you want to break 2 rules at once?

 

[JP Sauce]

They had to nominate a SUB backup, not just a late withdraw backup.

 

[JP Sauce]

Carl Spackler - Ian Callinan (SUB Jason Porplyzia)

not

Crouch - Jared Petrenko (Taylor Walker)

 

[Dirty Bird]

So it takes 3 people to be bitten on the arse for everyone else to understand wtf was going on?

So now I need to go Walker (SUB Callinan, Wright) or something similar to cover everything?

 

[JP Sauce]

Just Walker (SUB Callinan) will do you. If Walker starts as the sub or pulls out before the game, Callinan is your man.

Carl did ask to make sure everyone was clear on the rules.

Pets started as the sub though, so those 3 posters get their backup. Walker and Wright both kicked goals, so they should still be in

Sigh. How did you win this thing?

Wrong.

Please everyone read the rules again.

 

[Dirty Bird]

So re-reading the rules I need to go Petrenko (SUB Wright) (Wright)?

Do you really think 90% of people would have only have done the late replacement while 5% would have gone the substitute option?

And no one did both to cover their arse?

I think it's obvious for anyone with a full brain that the rules wern't clear and now 3 people are being punished due to a misunderstanding.

I for one was keeping a track of the competition as each goal was kicked, and before the game had started I changed the selections of the 3 that went with Petrenko to Walker and Wright. That was my understanding of the rule.

I'm a simple man Carl, i was much more at ease without all these crazy "rules"in the original comp

Just pick a goal kicker each week you said, never pick the same bloke twice you said. That suited me.....Now i'm no chance

But i was interpreting the rule as DB was. If the player you pick starts as sub, you then get to use the player use put in brackets

I was surprised that more people didn't use the SUB option.

But I really don't think it could have been much clearer. Heck, there was an entire section on it in the rules on Page 1, with a bold heading named "Substitute" - it wasn't exactly tucked away in the fine print.

And it is simpler than you are making out.

Name your goal kicker - eg Walker

If you want some insurance for if your goal kicker pulls out, add an emergency - eg Walker (Tippett)

If you also want some insurance for your goal kicker being used as the sub, add SUB - eg Walker (SUB Tippett)

 

[Dirty Bird]

The whole OP was fine print!
It just dragged on!

And I think everybody kinda agrees. Surely someone, just one person would have read it all and known they needed to go Wright (SUB Callinan) (Callinan) to cover all options. The fact that nobody went this path shows that there was a misunderstanding.

When I saw your post mid voting I thought you were kinda ******ed because I had thought just about everybody had overed the SUB. Obviously I misunderstood what you were on about and it seems others did as well.

You still don't understand!

You don't need to do that. I have half a mind to kick you out of the competition!

Basil Fawlty: "Please understand before one of us dies."

Your selection can only read one of the following ways:
1) Goal kicker
or 2) Goal kicker (Other Goal kicker)
or 3) Goal kicker (SUB Other Goal kicker)

That's it! If I see another set of multiple parentheses I will use my high level BigFooty connections to issue a perma ban.

 

[Dirty Bird]

I finally understand, you're like today's AFL

Year 1 - Create a plan, then make rules on the run
Year 2 - Create new rules to try and mask the problems from the previous years rules
Is next years rule "There are no rules"?

The league would make alot more sense if it was simple, you know, like pick the goal kicker or you're out, no picking the same guy twice.

Letting people in mid-season created problems, then letting people back in, then creating rules to cover up complaining people who made a poor decision. The first 2 should never have happened (and yes, I was the benefitiary of one) and the latter 2 should have just been told 'tough luck'. Your new rules are just like the holding the ball decision, no people playing the game have any idea what you're going to do. I half expect you to now allow what ever is inside the parentheses to over both sub and withdrawals now.

I say we go back to game 1 selecting now, let the 3 who made a mistake go through because they just got bitten on the butt by our very own AD. But back to being simple, 2 rules.

1) Select a goal kicker each week or you're eliminated
2) No using the same player twice or you're disqualified

 

[jenny61_99]

Must admit Carl, I did read the whole thing, and I missed that too. I'm lucky though, coz my guy kicked a goal.

I don't think the rules could be simple enough for you to understand them.

Is that you Geish?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Just spotted this bit...

What's in the parenthesis does cover both the sub and withdrawals... IF you include the "SUB" option.

Please tell me you're now trolling?
