h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'll sign up a team as soon as I think of a witty enough name for one.

B

Good man, B.

Shall I open a new Entry? I expect the answer is yes.

Will you register a proper team with the BBC game?

DMT

I wasn't going to bother, no.

I'm registered with too much BBC stuff as it is.

B

Just me and thee so far B. I will be Organcheese Academy XI like always.

I propose (steady, I haven't finished) that we adopt a 'squad' system.

So before Feb 9th, you name your XI for each phase of matches, i.e., group, super6, finals or whatever. No transfers allowed.

Otherwise, I don't really have the technology or capacity to manage it. Any thoughts?

DMT

Yeah, that sounds fine to me. I am familiar with the general method and scoring of Fantasy Cricket, but I have to say I've never taken part, so this'll be interesting.

B

This could be complicated, but I'll happily join in for some fun.

All right, I'll bang out some rules.

Watch This Space

DMT

^^^
That's me watching...

Can't be more complicated than Egon's Fantasy Football, leastways.

B

Dunno. See what I can cut and paste off the BBC's copyrighted site.

Ow!

DMT what does the * modifier do?

Go and have a look for yourself, you idle sod.

B

You score maximum points for being the first one to see through my charade. Well done. Hope you played your joker.
