I was told if I picked someone that dropped back later in their career I'd have to play them in their attacking position
I was told otherwise

can you find how long did he play as a winger? Is he a "winger" like Wan Bissaka or did he really play for long period pre-peak? Btw you know you get the version that played as a winger? You can play him at fullback but if he played as 18, 19 year old as a winger and his peak was in early 30s you get the kid.

You did nothing wrong — the rules are clear and you followed them to a letter. It's just that the point of the round is completely lost — there had to be some sort of a manual control over the picks that wouldn't have allowed the cases of a ridiculous oversight from an English wiki (compared to slight discrepancies between the wiki pages that should've been allowed).
There is no right way to do this tbf, its either this which makes it easier for you guys in a difficult round or include every site possible and then you get the problem of different records etc.
As moby said, its a fun draft so its not a big deal + even with those broken picks think we achieved what we wanted and thats a quality drop

I made the grim mistake of starting this draft in the assumption that we will get a good run at the all time people and coming up with some fantasy line ups which look absolutely shattered right now. :lol:

I don’t get it. How are players with 2-300 goals being chose if the limit is 50 or 100?
This round is killing me

The authoritative source is English Wiki which doesn't list all the goals in some circumstances such as with Eder. TBF in some cases I have looked at it, it is not just Wiki that doesn't record goals in a particular time period.

Btw whose pick is it?

Another rule update and looking at previous picks it doesnt effect anyone, this time! If you are trying to go around the rules and pick a player out of position you need to provide evidence of him playing at least 50 club games on the position you want to use him for criteria. Wikigate helped you guys enough, lets at least protect position criteria as much as possible.

The rule is becoming a joke now. For a 17 year career wiki only has goals for 3 years!
yap :(
should have let it be how it was from the start, GSTQ ruining every pick....saving grace is that all the forwards that dont have full records are reserve level so at least people are not picking great players.

To confirm:
If we pick a winger in this round, we wouldn’t be able to use him as a wingback or fullback could we?

you can use the player in any position but lets say young Messi played as a goalkeeper at age of 19-21 but later peaked as a fullback, you can pick him for the gk spot and play him at fullback but you pick the 19-21 old Messi.

Thanks.

However, I don’t understand most of the picks so far (most scored well over 50 goals in their career).

“toothless warrior” round?
