The Ludo draft

[Skizzo]

That was a joke, don't you dare create a rift, I love Edgar

Well so you say here, the private PM that you excluded him from says otherwise

I don't think anyone asked for an apology and everyone moved on with submitting their pick. It was you defense that changing it to a sheep for some and letting others get a free GOAT somehow fixed things is what irked me. You struck to that argument today as well which is why I responded today as well.

Apart from this round, it was a really enjoyable draft for me and I have had my fair share of GOATs, so time to move on to the games

I didn’t say it fixed things, just that it gave you a better chance at better players. Nothing false about that

Now go get your game ready before I get bored and introduce some new rules

Ronaldo and Matthaus!

After all that moaning, nobody blocks him.

dont even know your own rules

 

[Moby]

Don't think the mods are in sync.

 

[harms]

@Indnyc let's do friday?

 

[harms]

At least I've guessed @P-Nut's pick

 

[Zlatan 7]

For me, choice picks like Foulkes, Anelka, Stimac, Rijsbergen, Winter were well researched picks in the spirit of the draft while Ronaldo/Zidane/Matthaus/Baresi etc were obvious lazy choices which didn't require any research.

Being at a disadvantage for making well researched picks is not cool or even makes too much sense to me at least which is why the uber moaning

Excuse me, dry your eyes
I picked ronaldo and Zidane, those two players would transform teams for my opponents so I got them blocked.
Both part of World Cup winning teams for teammates, ronaldo went around almost every top club of the nineties. They also had overlaps with my other choices, Brazil, Real Madrid and a few others I think incase I landed on a red square.
I thought they were genius choices

 

[2mufc0]

And there you go. Why @2mufc0 was posting all that garbage about "what's done is done" and what not. So transparent.

Well played that bit

Haters gonna hate,

There was no way I was not gonna not try it, you would have done the same thing.

It's also funny how the guys with Pele, Muller, Ads, Puskas etc are having the biggest moan, share the wealth!

Baresi maybe, but not the other three, they played for multiple clubs over a long period of time opening up different decades, wide range of team mates and at the same time denying a GOAT to drafters in a neighbouring timeline.
Good choice players imo.

Just addressing these. Baresi was not a lazy choice IMHO. The rule is that he has to play with or against whoever I pick, and Baresi has played with or against almost all the players I was targeting initially + his career spanned 2 decades. He was also just outside my decade by a year so he was the perfect choice as I denied someone else a GOAT who I couldn't pick, while also getting someone who fulfilled the criteria I needed for the box.

What I didn't calculate was how many others would target the 60s. I figured there would be some competition, but not this much.

 

[green_smiley]

I'm surprised no one went for Zidane considering the other blocked player was Ronaldo.

Zidane is shite

Yeah fair enough, he just didn't play in multiple clubs like the other 3 thats the only disadvantage he had to the others . Also blocking a GOAT in a neighbouring decade is one of the best ways of going about blocks.

 

[2mufc0]

@MJJ @Swarm when do you want to play?

 

[GodShaveTheQueen]

There was no way I was not gonna not try it, you would have done the same thing.

I definitely wouldn't have tried it if I knew it was unfair.

I agree bud, great choice, I’m gutted you picked him haha. just people with sour grapes that’s all, mine are still salty after losing out on nedved because we helped people out in the over full 60s.

When do you want to play, possibly tomorrow? Preferably Friday?

 

[Moby]

Definitely wouldn't have tried to pretend that I was making sure that the rules are kept consistent or whatever when in reality I was clearly benefitting by the new rule. Poor form really.

Vote against the new tuppet guys! We need to make sure people like this lose.

You guys figure it out, it's only one manager posting for each team anyways right? Will just watch from a distance rubbing my hands, maybe blathering in other match threads

 

[willhse456]

@green_smiley I'd prefer to have the game sometime this weekend or Monday, cant really do any time before that as I have lots of work to do between then.

 

[Invictus]

[P-Nut]

At least I've guessed @P-Nut's pick

And still picked him anyway

 

[harms]

And still picked him anyway

I needed him more than you did.

 

[Indnyc]

@Indnyc let's do friday?

Yeah sounds good

 

[2mufc0]

Definitely wouldn't have tried to pretend that I was making sure that the rules are kept consistent or whatever when in reality I was clearly benefitting by the new rule. Poor form really.

Suck it up, I didn't make the rule.

Also I did say I wouldn't have any objection to the round being scrapped.

 

[2mufc0]

You can take turns posting, is tomorrow OK?

 

[P-Nut]

I needed him more than you did.

Definitely not, I was trying to blag my way to him for ages

 

[2mufc0]

I definitely wouldn't have tried it if I knew it was unfair.

To be honest I didn't do anything unfair, i understood why people would be annoyed but fortunately I wasn't on that side of the coin, that's why I said scrapping the round was an option so no one was disadvantaged.
