The inaugural TFK Last Man Standing Competition is up and running.
To access it, simply click the Survivor link at the top of the page, or just click on the word Survivor a in the previous clause.
The rules are straightforward, obviously. You pick one team each week from the EPL fixtures. They must win for you to remain in the competition. So you’re out if your team draws, loses or the match is postponed for some reason. Actually, not sure about that last bit, what’s standard here?
For the first couple of weeks you can enter a pick up until the kick off time of each match, so if you miss the first game then you won’t be able to pick either of those teams but you will be able to pick a team from the later Saturday or Sunday fixtures etc.
But that won’t be carrying on for every week because I can’t be arsed changing all the fixture times when they get moved for Champions League etc. So after Week 2, the gameweek will be locked at 12:45 on Saturday and all picks must be in by then.
I promise to update the scores each week to keep it running properly.
Also, the interface might look really ugly on some skins. Apologies. I haven’t the time at the moment to make it look attractive but I hope that won’t put too many people off.
There will be a TFK hoodie for the winner of the first competition if @manusboyle doesn’t claim his World Cup prize before then.
And if anyone has any interest in doing this for a small amount of money, let me know. You would need a paypal account to pay and it might be €10 a head with the winner taking all after paypal fees are deducted.
First the world ignores gaza, now TFK sells it’s soul to the EPL, what’s next a special poppy skin to remember the Great War? Shame on the administrators, this would not have been allowed on Dunph’s watch
I plan on doing so. Or rather, I plan on making it possible for someone else to do it. There’s fuck all to do, but if I’m doing the Pickem and this and the other one, I’ll forget to do them all every week.
@Esteban de la Sexface[/USER] and [USER=1406]@maroonandwhite[/USER] knocked out by Everton. [USER=706]@Fagan ODowd knocked out by QPR.
25 players remain with Chelsea result to come. Round 2 is open for picks. Thankfully the site is working properly and you can’t pick the same team again. Was a little worried about that.
@artfoley[/USER] and [USER=35]@stevie G[/USER] eliminated by Southampton. [USER=53]@Juhniallio[/USER] eliminated by Manchester United. [USER=1497]@downyourthroats[/USER] [USER=1755]@Blake[/USER] and [USER=1766]@the man himself didn’t pick.

Mix up in fixtures Rocko !! Burnley v Man City on your list instead of Burnley v Man Utd .
Could cause trouble especially if Man U continue their excellent run.

Thanks. Fixed now.
@Mac[/USER] [USER=258]@cluaindiuic Are ye still willing to help on the NFL Last Man Standing?
I’ve tried to make things as easy as possible for someone to manage it - but will still need to send instructions. Maybe one of you can do the straightforward Pickem and one can do the Last Man Standing - think the second one is probably marginally less time consuming. Anyway, there’s not a huge amount of work at all in either of them. About 5 minutes a week. I just have about 10 of those 5 minutes a week things to do and tend to forget to do some.
