Not sure if this belongs here or the Off-Topic but the UEFA Champions League Fantasy Football for this season just started the other day. If anyone has entered a team or is planning to enter one, do join the private league for footytube I created.
The League code is: 1118757-422871 Once you have a team, just go to "Leagues" tab and enter the code to join the footytube league.
It'll be a good secondary tournament to complement Dreamfooty. The deadline is next week before the first group stage matches. It'll be fun! I hope a lot of you join, especially since I know I'd be lucky if I even crack the top 10,000 on the main UCL league since it's quite competitive. My knowledge outside the 4 leagues is also pretty much non-existent. So private leagues are the way to go!
Yup, Cylon Zombies FC! Thanks for joining. Invite more people!
Btw, take note of the rules, especially the transfer and subs rules and plan accordingly. During a game week, players you sub out will get zero points. So if there's Real Madrid vs Man City On Tuesday and play Ronaldo, and then if you sub him out to put in Messi for the Wednesday Barca game, you lose your points for Ronaldo for the gameweek (or "matchday"). That confused me when I was playing their Euro 2012 game
Ah well, do join the league if you change your mind. I only joined Dreamfooty and this UCL fantasy football this year. Dreamfooty is great because I don't have to keep track of it every week, especially since I have no subs
Yay! 10 people! At least we can have a "Top 10" now. Who are the rest?
Random Tip #1: When picking players, focus on the group matches. You have unlimited transfers before the knockout stages start. Also a wildcard available to play to make free transfers on any match week. Random Tip #2: Teams from Groups A-D and Groups E-H play on 2 different days. You can take advantage of this (if you want) by playing a set of players on the first day and subbing out players who have under-performed. But note that the subbed out players will get 0 points. Random Tip #3: Additional transfers beyond the allocated ones will cost you 2 points. Which isn't that bad. Don't be afraid to change things up if some players end up being really terrible
This is also the first time I'm playing this UCL game but if the Euro 2012 game is any indication (which is 99% similar), it'll work like a footytube emergency transfer window except there is no limit on how many players you can buy/sell. Once activated, you can transfer as much as you want before the next match. You can use it once during the whole season.
When you transfer players and you have no more free transfers left, on the confirmation page there'll be an option to use the wildcard. At least it was like that in the Euro 2012 game
I've been trying to join, but every time I click "Pick You Team Now!" link and enter my email and password, it says "You are not currently logged in - please log in using your email address and password. Make sure you have activated your account before trying to log in - please check your emails. " I've created an account, confirmed it by email, tried to play, failed, canceled that account, created a new one with a new email, confirmed that one, and it still says the same. Don't know what I have to do
Hmm.... I have no idea. Did you try logging in using your gmail, windows live, yahoo or Facebook (if you have any). I didn't create an account for it. I just used my gmail account. It's also possible that there's some error on their side creating accounts currently
Just wanted to note that I added a reply to the original post. I think this is something we all need so we can keep track of who is playing and so we can brag
