Urgent admin attention required: Team selection broken all competitions

I put in my teams several
I put in my teams several days ago so was only minimally affected today when I went for one last tweak of my purist team and like many others was unable to do so for the last several hours before the transfer deadline. I scored reasonably well on the stages but would have improved on these scores with the final tweak.

However, in defense of fairness to all, I think it only reasonable to negate all stage one scores give everyone 9 more transfers for their standard team, and allow everyone to choose a purist team again (one time only). I think this is the most equitable solution in order to level the playing field. This seems equally fair to all. Hope this is technically possible.

So might be a bit late in the day to start wafting around unlimited transfers!

transfer page show 12:55 hrs until deadline at 22:05 tonight which kind of implies 11am tomorrow. Dunno how far to trust that though.

The deadline on the dashboard page is showing 10am UK time tomorrow.

I can’t make the decision, so I don’t know. Dave is away as far as I know, so I would sort out your team on the current situation and not hang on till the last moment.

IF I could make decisions, the scores would stand as they are, I know there were problems with the server, it was slow last night and through to this morning, then it went down (I believe this is when Dave was fixing it) and it came back on around half 10 and worked from then on, with the deadline being shifted to let people get teams in.

I said that I would not get involved in the forum anymore but I have to comment on this…I got my team in as I always put one in early and then tweak it at the last minute…
But it is a NO BRAINER…….Deadline was set and the site was down…..The stage has to be neutralised and everyone has free transfers for Stage 2 as if it were Stage 1……
There is no other option….

We’ll see what Dave says, I
We’ll see what Dave says, I don’t know a way to change the transfers apart from adding more. I like many set my team up for certain stages, so to lose stage 1 points is going to piss me off.

I can see your point fingus, but the majority of people had a team in and ready for stage one, by neutralising the stage, you are punishing the many to benefit the few.

I think it’s pretty unfair Gkam, there are many people who haven’t managed to put a team in. I did as it happens, but there were lots of problems last night as well as this morning.

Is it really a punishment?
Is it really a punishment? Everybody starts Stage 2 on a level playing field, nobody gains an unfair advantage. If the scores stand, some players are effectively punished for something they had no control over.
I accept that it is perhaps a divisive issue, but it honestly seems a no-brainer to me.
