Hi all, its that time of year again.  On ESPN have created a group called Betfair NFL Challenge

You've got $50 million at your disposal every week to choose nine players, each having a different value.  The winner is decided by total fantasy points by end of season, weekly scores don't matter.  Had a good turnout last season and a close competition, the more the merrier.

All welcome, password is betfair

If anyone is organising Eliminator challenge I'll sign up for that too

ttt... five in so far. all welcome
Report nooky August 31, 2010 10:59 PM BST
ttt, seven in so far.  No draft order, in Gridiron Challenge you can choose anyone you want each week and if you stay in budget you can keep players as long as you want.

poor turnout Sad we had over 30 2 years ago iirc

in now, seems very easy to pick a very good team.
Report nooky September 1, 2010 11:07 PM BST
yip gvl, a bit slow this year but there is usually a rush towards the start of the season...still plenty time to sign up

Nilsson, I always think that too at the start...but the values attached to each player go up and down depending on how they perform...when players get bye-weeks you drop them and have to replace them, but with who?  And how much will the original guy cost when he comes back, if u still want him?  Do u drop a guy for two difficult games, then he plays really well and you find you can't afford him for the 'easy' third game? etc etc  Isn't as easy as u might think, usually drives me half-crazy

i was thinking that as well - you could basically pick whoever you want and still be under budget
good to see the values change Happy

You need to post a link so people don't have to trawl through the ESPN site to find where to sign up

last call...up to 18 now
Report good value losers September 9, 2010 10:36 PM BST
actually, iirc you can still enter at any time of the season, you just miss out on the points  for games you've missed. if people don't enter before kickoff tonight they can still enter a team in time for sunday they just can't pick any vike or saints players.
