TUFCfan Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I've been asked about control settings before. Most settings should be set to assisted by default, but as well as tactical defending I would suggest that we all have pass power assistance turned off (as otherwise it's too easy to ping the ball about) and cross assistance at most set to semi (which it should be by default).  One thing I would suggest, though it's not the be all and end all, is now we're playing each other twice, the home team should send the invite where possible just to reduce the likelyhood of any cheating/accusations of cheating.  League Table   Last updated: 8/5/12  Transfer Windows  There will be three transfer windows during the season, this will be during:  - Week 3 - Week 7 - Week 10  The window lasts from midnight on the Monday of the week until midnight on the Sunday of the week. All deals must be confirmed via pm to stunstone by both managers and he'll announce when they're finalised. Managers obviously can plan to do deals outside of the window and discussion is allowed in the thread. Deals involving multiple players are allowed, as are deals with multiple players for one player, as long as it doesn't take you below the 18 player minimum. Also, legends can be traded, but you must still have four legends in your squad.

(i.e. 'Free Agency: Player A picked up (free agent) for Player B (released)')  - Free agent trades become valid at midnight on the day of pickup and can be used after that (released players can still be used up until midnight), with released players joining the free agent pool at midnight as well.  - You can't trade players picked up from free agency in the same window (or release them again to pick up another player in the same window).  - You can't re-sign a player you've released in the same window.  - Once posted in the thread all free agent pickups/releases are final and can't be changed (a.k.a 'The Stunstone Ruling' )  - Make sure to check other player's pick ups so you don't pick the same player, if this happens, repost with your new pick.  - I'm also adding some 'legends' to the free agent list, so legends can only be swapped for other legends (and legends can't be released to pick up normal players).   The players in the free agency pool are as follows (if you notice one of your players in it, let me know):  <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler  GKs  Carlos Kameni Christian Abbiati David De Gea Gianluigi Buffon Helton Morgan De Sanctis Rene Adler Roman Weidenfeller Tim Howard Tim Wiese Wojciech Szczesny  LBs  Aleksandar Kolarov Alvaro Pereira Aly Cissokho Benoit Remoulinas Capdevila Cristian Ansaldi Maxwell Michael Kadlec Naxto Monreal Pablo Armero Reto Ziegler Taye Taiwo Yuto Nagatomo  RBs  Bacary Sagna Gonzalo Castro Gregory van der Wiel Ignazio Abate Iraola Joao Pereira Jorge Fucile Lukasz Piszczek Mathieu Debuchy Mattia Cassani Maximiliano Pereira Pablo Zabaleta Rafael Stephan Lichtsteiner Vassilis Torosidis  CBs  Alessandro Gamberini Andrea Barzagli Andre Dias Andreas Rannochia Aurelien Chedjou Chris Samba Dede Dejan Lovren Diego Lugano Douglas Ezequiel Garay Holger Badstuber Hugo Campagnaro Jamie Carragher Jan Vertonghen Jonathan Woodgate Juan Kader Mangane Leonardo Bonucci Marchena Martin Demichelis Mehdi Benatia Naldo Nicolas Lombaerts Nicolas Otamendi Paolo Cannavaro Per Mertesacker Soulemayne Diawara LMs  Andrea Dossena Dimitri Payet Eljero Elia Jonas Gutierrez Kieran Richardson Mark Boussoufa Mark Gonzalez Matt Jarvis Pablo Piatti Sebastian Leto Sigamary Diarra Stewart Downing Tranquillo Barnetta Zoran Tosic  RMs  Alan Kasaev Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain Alexandr Samedov Bakary Sako Cani (Villarreal) Charles N'Zogbia Gokdeniz Karadeniz Jakub Blaszczykowski Jan Shlaudraff Jermaine Pennant Juan Zuniga Landon Donovan Lee Chung-Yong Marc Albrighton Marco Reus Matt Jarvis Sebastien Larsson Sidney Sam Simone Pepe Vladimir Bystrov  CDMs/CMs  Alou Diarra Benoit Cheyrou Charlie Adam Claudio Marchisio Darren Fletcher Dejan Stankovic Ever Banega Fernando Belluschi Ivan Rakitic Jarsolav Plasil Jeremy Toulalan Joey Barton John Obi Mikel Kim Kallstrom Lucho Gonzalez Massimo Ambrosini Michael Ballack Michael Carrick Morgan Amalfitano Ramires Simon Rolfes Sven Bender Thiago Motta Tom Huddlestone Yohan Cabaye Younes Belhanda  CAMs  Alessandro Diamanti Alex (corinthians) Ander Herrera Andres D'Alessandro Borja Valero Camunas (Villarreal) Carlos Eduardo Christian Eriksen Joe Cole Keisuke Honda Marat Izmailov Marvin Martin Matias Fernandez Miralem Pjanic Niko Kranjcar Piotr Trochowski Sebastian Giovinco Stefano Mauri Thiago (Barcelona) Tim Cahill Tomas Rosicky Toni Kroos Walter Montillo Wes Hoolahan Yoann Gourcuff Yossi Benayoun Zvjezdan Misimovic  LWs Andres Guardado Anthony Mounier Arda Turan Bal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinky Dad Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Well so far my 2 squads in comparison. I had Cech in Tildes draw and this time I have Villereall's Diego Lopez. I know which I'd prefer. Â Full backs though is much more like it. Last time I had Arbeloa and Cissokho.....this time Lahm and Marcelo. Classy.

I'll put full team lists on the OP soon. TapOut will be drawing four legends to complete the squads.  One issue to be cleared up is season length. As we've now only got 14 players, do we want to do a full season (play each other twice) or a half season (play each other once). A full season may lend more importance to the transfer windows but may be too long and lead to burnout. The short season will be quicker but the transfer windows won't be as important. How does everyone feel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmellaisagoddess Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I would be up for a full season with 2 games a week so it doesnt drag and would make the transfer windows an important period. I also liked the notion in the previous thread of being able to pick a player at will from the opposing team if you managed to beat that opponent kind of like a wildcard week if you will. What a crap team I have though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
