Euro 2012 Dreamfooty NOW OPEN!!

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

It is here Euro 2012 Dreamfooty!

For all of you who have played dreamfooty before this will all seem very familiar if not then I recommend reading the FAQ before you dive in.

For all of you who have played before here is the top rule changes.

- Valid teams consist of 11 players and a manager. You can have up to 5 substitutes but you do not need any.

- You can make any number of changes to your team before the 7:00 BST on the 8th

- Teams are saved every morning at 8am. So if you do have substitutes you can swap them in as you like on a daily basis.

- There will be one Transfer window opening on the 19th at 23:00 BST and closing on the 21st at 7:00 BST.

For PRO+ members

- There will be only 1 emergency transfer window available.

- Maximum budget is 125mil

- $500 prize pool will be split 1st place $250, 2nd place $100, 3rd place $75, 4th place $50, 5th place $25.

Your teams will become visible on your profiles and replace your current domestic teams after the tournament has kicked off and the open transfer window is shut.

Enjoy!

Does this mean I could get points from lets say 16 players one week? (If I do the right subs etc)

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Well as the quality of your team would suffer as a result of taking subs leaving you with less of a budget for the more expensive players, I suppose its only right that you can make changes every day if you have the players on the bench, its just another tactic in the game.
I suppose it would be a good idea to have 5 subs for the group stage as every team will play a part, then you can make changes and bring in more expensive players for the latter stages

Northgreen (AC Milan) 1 year ago

I suppose.

My thoughts exactly, too bad I don't know how much around I will be. Oh well, better pick a country others won't expect to do well and hope they can surprise with a strong 11 squad.

Just wanted to know for later.

(But I really wish you would include assist points for defenders. Isn't that after all why Lahm is the most expensive defender? Because he is one who likely will get assists?)

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

As far as I am led to believe the dreamfooty points come from an outside provider, not matt sitting drunk with pen and paper.... Lol, but matt will I'm sure confirm this

Badartist (Manchester United) 1 year ago

So how many changes are possible during the transfer window this time? And can I sell 3 and buy 5 say as long as I stay within the budget?

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

@Badartist.... The rules answer your question.... But to keep it simple. 3

Franboy (Barcelona) 1 year ago

Oh, I did not see: no price from 6th to 25th place? Too bad, it was a great motivation because there were 25 winners. I hope dreamfooty for season 2012/2013 there will be 25 awards. Because a season is so long and it's easier to stay motivated when targeting the top 25.
We will try to be in top 5 for this tournament but it shook the very difficult because concurrency is very rough.
Good luck to all.

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

Standard season will be back up to 25 prizes

Franboy (Barcelona) 12 months ago

Yes I think it's best, people prefer to earn less money but win lol. It is more motivating for the top 100 if the top 25 is rewarded.

Jimmybreeze (FC Vorskla Poltava) 1 year ago

Can't tell you how excited I am about this, thank you. I'm taking into account the last international tournament, the World Cup but also general dreamfooty experience too. Just finished my team and I'm looking forward to seeing how far I can get. Thank you again

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Calm yourself jimmy

Jimmybreeze (FC Vorskla Poltava) 1 year ago

I'M PERFECTLY CALM

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

Just a question, will prices be changing as the tournament develops?

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

There will be adjustments for the transfer window

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Ooohhhhh, that will cause consternation among the natives.... Lol

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

That is just rough

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

If prices change.... Will we get profit when selling a player?

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

No you´ll just get your money back. The whole thing is to find the best mix of players farming points with a limited budget. Sounds easy but it isn´t

Gunner3 (Arsenal) 1 year ago

How can I swap a player or cancel a player from my team? There is no sell or cancel option. Edit: nevermind, found out

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

I will answer this anyway in case others are finding the same thing.

To swap substitutes or to sell players you need to click the 'Manage' button

Zlatan94310 (PSG) 1 year ago

Will defenders get assist points?

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

No they will not

Jimmybreeze (FC Vorskla Poltava) 1 year ago

Never, ever, ever. Wish Barthez was still available though. Just for sentimentality value

Achiox (Manchester United) 1 year ago

Thank you so much (to whoever set up this system) for not having the mandatory subs rule from regular season!

A question: If players are injured before the transfer deadline, will they be removed from the list of available transfer completely, or only have their transfer value lowered?

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

If a player is replaced then we will remove him from the game and hopefully add his replacement.

This has already happened with Lampard and he has been removed from the game and Henderson put in.

Feel free to let me know if any other players are swapped

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Did you really have to put henderson in.... Lol, I mean he won't get a minutes play in the compo.
I would have left a space.... Lol

Achiox (Manchester United) 1 year ago

Thanks for the prompt response!

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

Another question, after the transfer windows open will the 2 players per team limit be removed?

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

Nope

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

How to show your em12 dfooty team? [df]I don't know[_/df]

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

You can't show your team until the compo kicks off, or we will get lots of guys then copying someone elses team, and we'll end up with 300 winners.... Lol

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

*sigh* so difficult to make a good choice...

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Tell me about it.... Lol

Ntruf (Lille) 1 year ago

Thanks to the staff for putting this all together!
However, I have a little critic to make: Half of french squad is place under midfielder, including forwards like Ribery, Ben Arfa and Menez and even the RB def Mathieu Debuchy who has never played anywhere else than right back.
Anyway, thanks again and good luck to all, dreamfooty is really exciting on short competitions

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Matt will provide you with a better answer than I ever could, although I don't think its down to footytube, the data most likely comes from an outside provider, just like the scoring doe's

Hithere (Manchester United) 1 year ago

I hope footytube takes a "hands on" approach with this Dreamfooty though (instead of just 100% relying on Stats provider). I understand why Matt rarely did any interventions and reviewed/corrected wrong data for a season long Dreamfooty since it has 3 leagues, multiple domestic cups, and champions/europa leagues. So it's hard to review data. But for this Dreamfooty there's only like 2 games per day maximum. So if there's a missed assist (for example), I hope it will be reviewed and corrected.
As for this France midfield problem, not sure about the rest but yeah I think Debuchy is defence. Almost bought him till I realized that he's in midfield. It's probably too late to change the positions now though

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

All the positions have been taken directly from the official Uefa team pages and if this data is wrong and users have picked that player I cannot change it as it would be unfair

Jimmybreeze (FC Vorskla Poltava) 1 year ago

I put my underpants on the wrong way round today. Can you help me with that?

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Saves on washing them jimmy, just reverse them and you'll get another month out of them.... Lol

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

You can use underpairs 4 times, so they told me in the navy

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Hello sailor.... Lol

Ntruf (Lille) 1 year ago

It's all good for me Matt. I pointed it out because it surprised me a bit, otherwise I'm a happy camper on footytube as usual. Thanks for your answers and work guys

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

OLIC OUT FOR croatia MATT, they say he;ll be out for six weeks, so his compo's over

Badartist (Manchester United) 1 year ago

Hey, Juanfran plays at right back for Spain, but he's listed as striker. Could you fix this please? Thanks

Badartist (Manchester United) 1 year ago

Well after re-reading and reminiscing previous fantasy seasons, I'm reminded of the fact that you directly get player information from official pages. That being the case, this is still very off, probably an email to UEFAs website wouldn't hurt?!

Jimmybreeze (FC Vorskla Poltava) 1 year ago

But lets be serious, this guy is never going to play for Spain in this competition. I think we have to be realistic

Badartist (Manchester United) 1 year ago

If Arbeloa were to get injured or for whatever reason had to be replaced, then JuanFran would step in

TheBarcaShow (Anims Tito) 1 year ago

It is more likely that Ramos would be moved to RB and Javi Martinez would play CB

Franboy (Barcelona) 1 year ago

Hello
If I have 16 players (11 + 5 subs) at the first transfer window, can I sell 8 players (3 + 5 subs) and buy 3 new player (more expensive)?
Thanks a lot

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

If I remember right you can only sell 3 players in any one transfer window, theres no way you could sell eight.... Lol

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

I think you should be banned from entering this compo franboy, to give the rest of us a chance.... Lol
Or matt should handicap you with a budget of £50m

Jeroen (Barcelona) 1 year ago

Actually it is possible to do that Tony. Franboy and I were chatting about it earlier today (in ze beautiful language of ze French), and you can sell as many as you like, but you can only buy 3.

So it's possible to sell all your subs and a field player, for just one other player. As long as you have 11 players and a coach

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

You are so EVIL! :)

Fiasc0 (Eintracht Braunschweig) 1 year ago

But on the the other hand, will you don´t miss the points? At group stage you can possibly farm later (my guess) you can be happy when 4 players actually farm points.

Feel free to correct me

Dpfka0821 (Manchester United) 1 year ago

Quick Question: On your description it says the transfer window will open on 19th at 23:00 BST and close on the 21st at 7:00 BST , but in the Dreamfooty FAQ page it says the transfer window will open on 19/6 8pm and close 21/6 at 6pm . Which one is the correct schedule?

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

Cheers for spotting this, the 19th at 23:00 BST and close on the 21st at 7:00 BST is correct

ManOnDMoon (Manchester City) 1 year ago

Barzagli is injured for Italy, they called in Astori

Tony (footytube staff) 1 year ago

Thanks for that. I hope matt sees it. Or I will have to contact him before they play

Matt (Footytube Staff) 1 year ago

He has been removed, cheers

ManOnDMoon (Manchester City) 1 year ago

It now seems they will try to recover him for the 3rd game. Uncertain situation
