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

Well, get your names down and lets play

Okey-dokey

Hang on a minute, I haven't advertised this one yet. Have you been lurking round my page or something?

Yep. I've been re-doing my page and the link to the score prediction league was about two competitions out of date, so I was looking for an up to date link! Sorry to gatecrash...

Nah, that's alright

As you're first to register, you're now top of the table. So not much change there then

I'd like to sign up please

Well hello there Kiltedjedi and welcome

I shall stick your name on the table straight away.

Get your selection of match results and scorers from this list - F118417?thread=273320 - in before the 17th May and you're good to go :

As you're new to the h2g2 Fantasy Football stuff, perhaps you'd like to take a look at the current competition - A862607 - which is actually about to come to an end, and get to see what the regular contributors get up to. See you around

I'm in. Put my name at the bottom of the table now, and you won't have to move it for the rest of the season.

B

Good thinking. Consider it done

I'm in, trailing behind Otto. So no change there either.

No, in the first instance *I* get to chose where you go in the league

I'm in. Please put me down for a couple of full houses and the rest can be all

*reporting for international duty*

You're on the list now

rushes in

ok i'm here, finally

wouldn't miss it. i'll have to be first one day. maybe i'll need a knockout drug for otto first tho.

You've both been added

Robin, you're currently eight in the table, which must come as a novel experience to you

GD - now that this thread is more-or-less redundant, can I use it to propose my latest wizard scheme:

Fantasy Cups. Simply pair us off, knockout tournament style, give each pairing a number of matches, and the highest one wins. Replays and away goals if necessary.

Just a thought to keep the season alive for those of use who tend to fade into mid-to-bottom table obscurity.

B

I like that idea.

I'd say two leg games as well, with the away goals rule.

Whatcha reckon, Desky?

Oooh, I like that idea

Probably because I'm usually mid-to-bottom table obscurity
