First topic message reminder :

Being that the league is going to be FIFA 16 based its daft that we're still under the FIFA15 umbrella. We also need to have a second confirmation on who's in being that the initial role call was some time ago now.

Please confirm below!

I'll make a start this evening on updating the squad lists that have already been done.

Confirmed

Hero
Viva
Bambam
Marky
Nando
Miky
Trebs
Olly

I know Kim and Kanye.

Sexy? She looks terrible but her daughter Kendall (hope she's not a man) is not bad.

Away at a work course for the rest of the week, so if anything happens in the league I won't be around as much

by Holymiky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 6:21 pm

If we are going to start this league then we need to discuss things and organise things ready for the start.

Let's talk it out.

One of the topics is Injuries and are we going with 2,3 or 4 lawyer offers?

We need someone for Injuries, someone for Lawyers and I think BamBam wants to do the table and top scorers.

We need team pages.

Before we do any of that though we need to discuss what teams are in and out. Are we re-drawing teams? I can make decisions myself but we need this to be a team effort guys, will hopefully help towards people being happier to be involved.

by Holymiky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 6:22 pm

Also we have 8 confirmed people, say now if you want to be added in. We will need to keep the numbers even though.

by Holymiky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 6:23 pm

Oh and we also need budgets once the teams are selected.

by Marky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 6:49 pm

I would prefer to start from scratch with a draft and then assigned our PL teams but that's just me it seems!

by BamBam Mon 05 Oct 2015, 6:52 pm

I don't mind that either depending on how easy it is for Hero

by Holymiky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 7:01 pm

Hero would have to do a lot of switching around which I think we were trying to avoid if possible.

by FIFA Diva Mon 05 Oct 2015, 7:15 pm

Personally I think we should have 3 injuries and can I do injuries.

by Holymiky Mon 05 Oct 2015, 7:25 pm

I'm okay with 3 injuries and yes you can.

Does anyone disagree with 3 injuries, if so why?

by **Hero** Mon 05 Oct 2015, 7:26 pm

With using a team as a base it does help me if that's okay.
Firstly, moving players back and forth is simpler when they're in the same place on FIFA.
Secondly for match creation etc they're again near each other.
And lastly it's just a lot easier to have a squad as a starting point than having to search and find 10x30 players and move them into a team whilst moving the rest out.

by FIFA Diva Mon 05 Oct 2015, 8:00 pm

Bam did you give me a friend request something 89 as your gamertag?

Nadeem you got online?

I'm get Fifa probably this week whenever I can bother to go into town.

by nadeem2099 Tue 06 Oct 2015, 12:07 pm

Yeah I've got online viva. £40 though Sad

nadeem-2099 is my name.

by Fernando Tue 06 Oct 2015, 12:38 pm

You paid £40 to get online picard

by FIFA Diva Tue 06 Oct 2015, 12:58 pm

£40 is a rip off considering the service PlayStation offer.

I seen somewhere you can get £60 worth of psn for £22 through o2.

by nadeem2099 Tue 06 Oct 2015, 1:05 pm

They do 2 free full game downloads a month though via the online fee. Something called "Super meat boy" is free for psn users to download this month......

It's all set for this weekend. The champions league final. Me vs viva, fifa 16, PS4, no crappy Internet to worry about. Viva is currently 500000000/1 to win.

by Trebs Tue 06 Oct 2015, 1:05 pm

£40 is the standard price, and you get two free games a month Smile

by Fernando Tue 06 Oct 2015, 1:17 pm

£40 is what mugs pay.

I can 99.99999999999999% guarantee that Viva ducks Nadeem.

The 2 free games are nearly always awful, I haven't downloaded a free game since early 2014. PSN are a disgrace.

Love how you make me a massive favourite because you're scared to fail.

Saturday after 11pm I'll be on Nadeem.

by FIFA Diva Tue 06 Oct 2015, 1:38 pm

I've owned the Xbox 360, ps3 and ps4 division as well as owning the PES2016 lot. I don't get respect enough.

I'm like Jesus, you'll all appreciate me when I'm dead.

by FIFA Diva Tue 06 Oct 2015, 1:40 pm

What do you pay for live Nando?

If I never played Fifa I would never buy online, I prefer my offline story based games. Nadeem get The Last Of us, it's 14 on psn and 10 on CD keys. Madness game, truss me daddi.

by **Hero** Tue 06 Oct 2015, 2:17 pm

Why do you even pay for live when all you do is shirk challenges?

by FIFA Diva Tue 06 Oct 2015, 3:24 pm

Not going to take the bait.

Lets get a move on with the league please. Miky you're the only one that can make this happen.

I paid £28 for mine Ok!

by FIFA Diva Tue 06 Oct 2015, 5:03 pm

Where from? Can you get it for PlayStation?

by Holymiky Tue 06 Oct 2015, 8:17 pm

Okay a few things have been decided, post if you disagree with what we have so far.

Plan for the league is to have results generated by FIFA 16 with the computer playing against itself to determine a score for each match each week, this will be ran by Hero but others can chip in and help too. It will be streamed on Twitch.tv (gaming streaming website) live and then the past broadcasts will be on there for an amount of time in which people can go back and watch their specific match if they wish to.

Some rules so far:

We are going to start with base Premier League teams (most likely the ones with lesser star ratings on the game itself) and build our teams from there. The reason behind this is to make it easier for Hero as he will be swapping and changing players around quite a bit as it is so we want to limit this if we can to save him work.

We need to choose the teams that are included, it looks like there are 8 of us at the moment which seems okay, i want your inputs on this please.

Budgets are still to be decided, can people please suggest what they feel the budgets should be, i feel that they should be based on the star rating of the team, the lower the star rating, the more budget you get (i do want these to be controlled though so there isn't a huge amount of difference if there is one to 2 star ratings between the teams.

Injuries - 3 Injuries seems to be fine with me, it will encourage more trading IMO - Viva this is officially your job

Also there was another option that won the poll in regards to players being injured on Fifa during the game for example, do we include this or just stick to the usual setup?

Table and Top Scorers - This is officially BamBam's job.

Lawyers - I am happy with 2 each week at the Euro Value on TM (German TM) It will still be given in pounds just the equivalent price.

We need to discuss what times of the week people want to do things, which days suit you for results for example Hero, what days do you guys want to have tactics in by etc? There is more to talk about but lets start here.

FIFA Diva wrote:Where from? Can you get it for PlayStation?

No that's USA only Ok!

Which is the issue with sectoring the globe nowadays if lived in America would be £30 but still at £35 atm Smile

It's £21.99 for Xbox Live at the moment.

by FIFA Diva Wed 07 Oct 2015, 9:14 am

Nadeem I bought Fifa yesterday, they automatically put me in Division 8 because I'm too big headed.

Be prepared for Saturday 11pm kick off.United v Real Madrid.

by Trebs Wed 07 Oct 2015, 11:40 am

I still think lawyers and transfers should be some sort of sliding scale depending on fifa value.

I.e. a 75 rated player should cost 2m
80 rated 8m
85 rated 20m
90 rated 50m

Or something like that, otherwise I'll just get the players i know are high ratings on fifa but cheap.

by **Hero** Wed 07 Oct 2015, 1:20 pm

But that's always been the same with every league.
People bought Xavi/Pirlo etc because they were 5m yet miles better than others at the same value.

by **Hero** Wed 07 Oct 2015, 1:22 pm

Also there was another option that won the poll in regards to players being injured on Fifa during the game for example, do we include this or just stick to the usual setup?

Yes for the FIFA injuries for me.

by Fernando Wed 07 Oct 2015, 3:34 pm

Stop trying to fix what isn't broken, There's nothing wrong with the injury system & Fifa 16 seems to injure ppl at will.

by **Hero** Thu 08 Oct 2015, 9:53 am

Streaming the results won't always be the same night more than likely, as the Mrs will probably moan at the stealing of the tv, it'll have to work around her tv viewing of inane crap like 'Don't tell the bride' and that bake off thing.

by **Hero** Thu 08 Oct 2015, 9:54 am

Okay so being that the numbers for the league are less, which teams are we now going with and lets get the wheels going on this beast!!

You better start practicing our kid. I'm as they say, the Beast Incarnate when it comes to fifa 16. Your imaginary Undertaker streak will end on Saturday. Ladies and gentlemen, there are professionals, there are legends, and there are superstars, and the key to that is that they're all plural. They're all lumped together. And then there's only one that stands head and shoulders above the rest on a platform of his own. There's only one beast incarnate. There's only one conquerer of the streak. And there's only one nadeem2099.

You should do what I did with Fifa last year, bring down a telly from upstairs and play at the same time as my wife watched the main TV.

If there's 8 of us, just select the bottom 8 ranked PL sides on Fifa 16 and then let people try and choose their side. (No point anyone but Olly having Norwich for example)

We genuinely are a 1 TV household, they do still exist.

by **Hero** Thu 08 Oct 2015, 10:07 am

So presumably it'll be...

Bournemouth - Nando
Watford
Norwich - Olly
West Brom
Sunderland
Leicester
Aston Villa
and one of Stoke/Newcastle/Swansea/Palace/West Ham?

by Marky Thu 08 Oct 2015, 10:25 am

I wouldn't mind keeping Leicester as I had already started planning but I think if 2 or more want the same team those teams should be randomly assigned.

by **Hero** Thu 08 Oct 2015, 10:50 am

I'd have liked to have kept West Ham as well but don't mind if they're now considered OP.

But you've never managed that ever.

I bet Marky is one of those guys that wears a Tap Out T Shirt without having any MMA ability.

by **Hero** Thu 08 Oct 2015, 11:06 am

Do you own a Man Utd shirt Viva?

by Fernando Thu 08 Oct 2015, 11:24 am

Whilst id prefer to be Bournemouth i don't mind who i am
