bazzypants Posted January 26, 2016 Report Share Posted January 26, 2016 I like the cutthroat 2 lives format personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 me too, it's all action, every week is crucial! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwang Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'm happy either way. Prefer the current format as it's fast though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterLeader Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 How about 4 lives each? Â Your team loses = -2 lives Your team draws = -1 life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 you could always make another thread with the league format that you like and i'm sure people will join in, that way we could all be playing 2 premier league comps in the forums? Â if we all had 4 lives the 1st competition of this would still be running..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, because if your team loses then it's equivalent to 2 lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwang Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 makes sense masterleader - two losses would be the same as before - ending your tournament. it would be a bit longer, and really it depends on whoever wants to run it and keep on top of it.

MasterLeader Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 The difference is that when your team unfortunately draws (I.e. Doesn't lose) then you only lose half as many lives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterLeader Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 You can take more risks & it makes the game more interesting since draws don't punish you as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 You can take more risks & it makes the game more interesting since draws don't punish you as much i think it lessens the excitement to be honest, if you pick a big club vs a small club you are almost guaranteed to not lose 2 lives, the current format has it so that you find a winner (for example in the current format West Ham vs Man C would be a risky proposition but under the rules you are suggesting picking City would a safer bet as they would probably get a draw if they didn't manage a win). if you start your own competition in another thread i'm sure everyone would join in (i would) but it would be a shame to lose the current format as it's all action, i reckon most of us would play both.

Yeah I guess so - maybe I'm just bitter because both my teams had unlucky draws which eliminated me from the competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwang Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 That would probably be it! This sort of thing is ripe for despair and disappointment.. At least we're not losing actual money on these shenanigans. (Ok quick calculation 80k in T$ is about £1.60 - not that cheap.. Correct me if I'm wrong.)
