Forum Fantasy Motorcycling League 2008 - final standings posted

[MrJan]

I am still deciding if entry to this will be wise, last season's attempt was somewhat unsuccesful

[patnicholls]

Nice one looking for to this. Must do better this time.

Can I make a suggestion?
Perhaps limit the number of rider changes to 2 in the transfer window but have 2 transfer windows. The problem with everyone being able to change their whole line up is that many teams end up almost the same for the 2nd half of the year.

We actually already have two transfer windows - but hardly anyone seems to change in the second one.

I'm giving the 'max number of transfers' thing some thought, might limit it to three rather than two (cos if you change one person and you're limited to two, you have to directly alter another in proportion, meaning there's less scope for variation if you see what I mean).

I'll decide soon!

And, I hope FGSport get on with it with these Superbike lists - I'm on hol between Jan 19-26 (skiing in France) so really want them to be out before I go away...

Hi all,

As I've posted in the 'Hello...' thread, I'm off on holiday on Saturday - skiing for a week in France. Will be back on the 27th but won't be looking on here or posting until then.

I was hoping for the WSB/WSS lists to have appeared by now from FGSport so I could do the prices, but nothing's out yet. So unfortunately we can't get things up and running which is annoying as the season starts on Feb 20th.

I'll post the MotoGP, 250, 125 prices tomorrow night so you can be having a look at them while I'm away - even though you obviously can't pick your team yet cos of the WSB/WSS ones not being here yet.

Despite the delay, I hope as many of you as possible are still interested in playing and making the League as good as it's been the first two years!

Pat

Have a great time Pat
Team Ausino is still setting up our new Headquarters and we are progressing well.
Our Mechanical division now has an improved inventory of tools and parts, including, 2 bent screwdrivers, a slightly rusted adjustable wrench, a small tin of assorted odd nuts and bolts, a large bag of cable ties, 2 rolls of duct tape and a can of WD40.
Our hospitality unit is well stocked up as well and now consists of, 8 family tins of Heinz Baked Beans (we wanted the best), a 5 kilo bag of potatoes, 2 bags of frozen peas, a 6 pack of meat pies, a small bag of curry powder, 2 woks, and a small butane gas cooker. All this will be housed in our $19:95 two man hospitality tent (bought it at A Best dept store).
So, things are looking up for Team Ausino in 2008.

Cheers John.

Things are prepared on the MotoGP side - preliminary spreadsheet is up at:

WSB/WSS to follow - although the majority of the WSB field is listed in other threads (WSS remains mostly a mystery).

That's the GP class prices for you all to be having a look at.

Please don't attempt to make any teams before I put the WSB/WSS ones up, as you'll be doing it completely wrong!

[jonny hurlock]

the provisional list ares up for wsbk and wss

http://www.crash.net/motorsport/wsbk...ntry_list.html

if its helpful, I hope this seasons prices are equal to motogp /wsbk. ie. last year some of the wsbk riders were more higher than moto gp riders
