Selecting Your Team
Select your team members from the rosters available (the rosters are one post down). You will be awarded points according to how your players fare in their tournament games. You must have one GK (goal keeper) and then you can use one of the following formations found below. (Formations listed as DF-MF-FW)
You may not choose more than 3 players from one single team. Place a bolded "C" after one of your players-> C. This player will be your captain and will earn (or lose) you double points. Some players have stars (*) next to them. You are allowed a total of FOUR stars on your roster. This number will increase as the tournament advances. Players with a star are considered to be solid players with a higher likelihood of scoring than other players at that position. Players with 2 stars are the cream of the crop, and are the most likely to gain points at the position. The team an individual plays on, that team's philosophy, the player's name recognition, and past performance can all contribute somewhat to star status. There is no guarantee that star players will score more- it's just more likely. If MFs or DFs are listed lower down the roster (towards the FWs), then they are more likely to find themselves involved in the scoring than those MFs or DFs listed higher up towards the GK. Of course, there is no guarantee MFs & DFs listed closer to FWs will score more, but their chances are generally better. Note on trades- After the first two rounds of group play, you can draft a completely new team. Unlimited trades. After the third and final round of group play, you are allowed SEVEN trades. After the first playoff round, you are allowed only THREE trades. After the quarterfinals and semifinals you are allowed only TWO trades. Do not under any circumstances edit your old teams once play has started. If you want to trade a player, make a new post stating the trade and list your new team. (If any of that is unclear, watch the way other players do it and you'll get the idea very quickly.) Scoring Points In Games Rules for gaining points are as follows.
Take a blind shot in the dark at these questions, or read the various columns offered by our writers to help you decide how to answer. Either way, luck is involved. But don't skip this- if you happen to have a lucky day, these are worth a ton of points all together. ![]() 5 POINT QUESTIONS Who will score the most goals in the tournament? Who will have the most assists in the tournament? Which team will win the tournament? Which goalkeeper will score the most total phantasy points in the tournament? Which defender will score the most total phantasy points in the tournament? Which midfielder will score the most total phantasy points in the tournament? Which forward will score the most total phantasy points in the tournament? GROUP PREDICTIONS Predict the winner and runner up from each of the eight groups (the groups are listed in the next post down). Predicting the winner is worth 3 points. The runner up is worth 1. If you select the correct two teams but have their positions reversed, you will be awarded 2 points. BUY A TEAM You can have a total salary of 100 million. The rosters with salaries listed is here. Put together the highest scoring team you possibly can for 100 million or less. This team will not change throughout the tournament- it's just a one-time deal. At the finish of the tournament we'll see which person's 100-mill squad scored the most, and that person will gain 10 bonus points. (Formations allowed are all those listed above, plus 3-4-3.) edit: Please use no more than TWO players from one team.

Ah, good spot, Nilp. I think we'll encourage diversity on the permanent salary squad- two players from one team.
I will edit the rules. ![]()

Hello people! Without further ado, here I am, joining this cozy little group (blame Mr. Noggins).

Legate-san! Welcome to this product of phantom's imagination/simulation!!!
![]() Since you're the first new player to sign, you (or rather LegateWight will be TiG's last midfielder, I think. Btw, your squad is legal, but you have one extra star you can use. (You're not required to use it though, but stars are shiny.)

Thank'ee, Nilp-san! I know I'd have one more star, but with my choices, I was going by simply picking people I like (or I found interesting to add), and I might alter stuff in the future, depending on their performance. I will save making a "strong" team for the 100million-team, this one I will probably mostly follow just out of curiosity to see how those particular people (or "people") do
![]() Btw, random question: when you are changing your team in the future, can you also change the captain? (And if so, does it count into the maximum number of choices etc.?)

Yes, you can change your captain any number of times and, no, it doesn't count towards your transfer limit.

GK Tar-Atanamir (Armenelos) 13
DF Tar-Palantír (Armenelos) 7 DF Brandir (Inter Beleriand) 1 DF Fellbeast #1 (Mordor) 1 MF Rían (Anfauglith) 2 MF Khamul (Shire-Bree) 11 MF Estë (Valimar) 10 MF Galadriel (Wilderland) 15 FW NerWight (TiG) 5 FW Saruman (Isengard) 15 FW Gothmog (Gondolin) 20 I am pretty bad at maths, but I think the result should be 100. ![]() Just out of curiosity, how do you (whichever of you is tasked with doing it) decide who is defender, who is forward etc.? Is it the same every year? (I am saying that because - as I have noticed already when picking the "normal" team - if I could, I would make my team completely out of midfielders, since basically the best characters and the ones I'd like to have in my team are all there. Not that I like the others less, but when making this one, I have more than once encountered the situation where I would've put an absolutely perfect character into my team, who would perfectly fit point-wise, only had he/she been a defender instead of midfielder.) GROUP PREDICTIONS Group A: Shire-Bree/TiG Group B: Eriador/Gondolin Group C: Erebor/Wilderland Group D: Armenelos/Real Valinor Group E: Valimar/The Sea Group F: Imladris/Rohan Group G: Anfauglith/Doriath Group H: Minas Tirith/Gondor The questions I am leaving for the latest, because I know nothing whatsoever about the people, so I will mostly make a random shot anyway, but I will look at them first again too...

Some of the reasons for their places in the formation are pretty obvious (Fëanor attacks, Melian defends), some I think are "historical" - as to how they fare in one year or kind of "storywise" (depending on what kind of "fellowships" are formed) etc. If you have any specific questions, ask tp.

GK: *Tar Atanamir (Armenelos) DF: Balrog #1 (Angband) DF: Ecthelion (AC Beleriand) DF: Nienna (Real Valinor) DF: Gwaihir (Erebor) MF: Elwe (Wilderland) MF: Beruthiel (Barad-dur) MF: *Phantomwolf (TIG) FW: *Hurin (Hithlum) FW: *Maedhros (Inter Beleriand) FW: Witch King (Eriador) Hoo boy, if I wasn't such a Maedhros fanboy I'd really be doubting his ability to pull through here. And Armenelos has a major struggle with the group they've been saddled with, but I think they've got the mojo to make it. Picks: Group A: Angband/TIG Group B: Eriador/Inter Beleriand Group C: Wilderland/Erebor Group D: FC Valinor/Armenelos Group E: Hithlum/The Sea Group F: Rohan/Imladris Group G: AC Beleriand/Nargothrond Group H: Barad-dur/Gondor Most goals: Turin. The man's got a foot. Most assists: Beren Winner: AC Beleriand Best GK: Carcaroth Best MF: Beren Best FW: Turin.

Just wanted to make it clear that yes, I'm up for this! I don't know when the deadline is, but I don't have much time now, so I'll get my team up when I can.

Let me make sure I have this straight. We have our normal phantasy team which we can make trades and changes to, as we have in past phantasy cups?
But also "buy a team" with a max-100 million salary, that doesn't change at all.

Hrm, I'll re-jig Kamikaze Warg-Storm Frostdemon Apocalypse into a lesser form in order to meet the criteria. Let's see:
GK- Aradan (Hithlum) 5 DF- Snowmane (Rohan) 3 DF- Gothmog#2 (Barad-Dur) 6 DF- Gwaihir (Erebor) 10 DF- Grishnakh (Mordor) 5 MF- *Beren (AC Beleriand) 12 MF- Nienor (Hithlum) 6 MF- Celebrian (Valimar) 8 FW- **Feanor (AC Beleriand) (C) 22 FW- Celegorm (FC Valinor) 13 FW- Shelob (Mordor) 9 So there we have it! Let's see if I can win this year, at the fourth (or fifth?) time of asking. ![]()

I am displeased that because of the no more than two players from one team rule destroys my plan of having a team composed solely of dwarves.
![]() In lieu of this I’m going to be as unbalanced as I possibly can in favor of offense…hopefully to the point of being absolutely, jibberingly unhinged. After…almost no thought whatsoever, I have decided to make my initial team for Phantasy my bought team as well. I record it here twice for Official Purposes (and hopefully succeed in putting a new spin on the old phrase of “I have some swamp land to sell you”). Kuruharan’s Offensive Fever Swamp GK Mumakil DF Frumgar DF Borondir DF Haldad DF Gorlim MF Luthien MF Yavanna MF Aegnor FW Finrod* FW Turin** C FW Sauron* Kuruharan’s Bought and Paid for Offensive Fever Swamp GK Mumakil (1) DF Frumgar (2) DF Borondir (2) DF Haldad (1) DF Gorlim (1) MF Luthien (14) MF Yavanna (10) MF Aegnor (10) FW Finrod* (14) FW Turin** (24) C FW Sauron* (21) And for those who will point out that there are some obviously loony choices that would have made it “better”, please remember that I am throttled by the star system and the salary cap. Hopefully I will have the ability to get crazier with my Phantasy team as things progress. Believe me I would happily field a team composed completely of forwards and spend a billion dollars…or pounds…or euros…or yuan or whatever currency it is we are using with a combined ego the size of the galaxy. I will post my answers to the questions later tonight when I have more time.

Phantom, my man, I'm nipping over to your side of the pond tomorrow; so if I've messed something up then I'm afraid I'll just have to suffer for a while!
Eomer? In... America? ![]()

Is it possibly Eomer...in Boston? Because there currently is a Boro...in Boston who would be ecstatic to meet an Eomer.

Right. phantom, do we have star limits on our 100-million squad? I have five in mine, so if there is, and it's four, I'll just drop Galadriel for her grandfather-in-law. But I laboured under the delusion that the only limit for that XI is the formation, the number of players from a certain team, and, of course, the salary.
In other news, possible Warg sighting in the New World!!! (Absolutely bovvered to be on the wrong side of the puddle.)
