Last One Standing Game Table

Posted Image

Game 6

RoyalJoe and Gwent Royal both correct for round 3 so go onto round 4.

Next round everyone can enter not yet.

My Team pick = Burnley

WHAT EVERYONE THINK OF TAKING PREMIER LEAGUE/LEAGUE CUP/FA CUP POINTS OUT OF GAME AND SAYING THE WINNER AND CONTINUING WITH JUST CHAMPIONSHIP?

I'll say yes as well - I feel that having two games running simultaneously gets a little bit confusing.

I thought we had already had this discussion a few weeks ago...

I'm a firm NO on this matter. While it was confusing having two (sometimes three) games running concurrently, RoyalJoe has since amended this so that we are only doing a Championship game (I imagine we will do an FA Cup game as well with the 3rd round??)

In terms of points earned to this point, it would be unfair for those who have earned points in previous games to lose them retrospectively. And say this for my own position in the game (please don't take my points!) as well as everyone else who has been taking part in this new game this season, which has worked quite well I think.

We could change it for next season - and continue the Premier League game this season.

The basic idea of the game is just great - it's already on several different forums - but we can adapt it for "RR" as we see best!

I think we should certainly iron out any issues people have had next summer and then carry it on next year, as it is a good game to do (despite my early reservations about it) and RoyalJoe has done a fantastic job maintaining it thus far. I think the Premiership side of it was a step too far at this stage, and I certainly wouldn't recommend bringing it back into the game. I feel the past few weeks have been a lot cleaner than it was before, and I feel we should continue as we are for now until the end of the season, and then we can make sensible changes.

My future idea for this game would be to go inter-forum on it (perhaps something daib0 would know more about) and maybe have a larger league with several forums playing at once. It would give us enough entries each week, and hopefully games would go on a bit longer. Of course we would have Royals Rendezvous earning team points as well though!

Forest please for Saturday

I don't think we should take points either. We have closed that down, so those points are really now done and dusted, and the game simplified, so it's a no from me.
