Some of you may remember that at the end of the season four bowl stream Squee came up with the idea of having a fantasy league similar to how things work in real life sports. As he is obviously too busy running things to have time to do this himself, Ive come up with my own idea for it and this post is to gauge interest in it to see if anyone would like to take part.

The idea is to pick your own team of any five characters (to deal with rotations) and have them compete for you, scoring points based on how well (or badly) they do in their matches. Each of the 80 characters would have a value in zeni, and youd have a set amount to spend on making your team.


Any questions or takers?

I hadnt actually considered that. In fantasy (real) football youre usually allowed up to three players from one team, but there youre picking at least 11 players from hundreds, while here youre picking only five from 75 (not counting your own team) so I think just one per team is fair enough, so theres (potentially) a bit more diversity within the teams.

You said 5, so that you could allow for rotations, but what if two players are rotated out on the same week?

Well I was thinking that would just be one of those things, but its possible that it wouldnt be an uncommon occurance, particularly with the one per team rule, so I think it could be extended to a team of six with two subs without much issue. Could make certain things easier in fact.
And if you happen to have more than two out on a week... well youve either got really bad luck or just suck at prediction :P

I'd be interested in a fantasy league. I wouldn't have a problem waiting another season though either. Also, as for having 2 people rotated out in the same week, it would still even out since everyone has to be rotated an equal amount. So you may have 2 out one week, but you'd end up with maybe all 5 in during another week.

The rotations would even themselves out over the season, but even if everyone you choose is playing in a week youll still only be scoring on the four players you pick for the active slots that week, the bench player(s) only come in if one of those four are out

It doesnt look like this thread is going to attract any more participants, but I think its just about reached the minimum level for things to go ahead, and hopefully getting everything in place will encourage a few more to give it a go.

So right now, I would like one or two people that feel confident enough in their memories of season 4, or have the time to rewatch some if they wish, to give feedback on the values Ive set for all the characters. If youd like to help then say so here, and Ill PM you what Ive come up with. I hope to put the rules and values up next Monday so theres at least a week for everyone to decide on their teams before the season starts.

I can probably read those during the next few days or so.
