Twlm?

[sexy wooden spoon]

i used it b4, bought players, and no i cant get in either : /

[Randedl]

somebody make me cheaper, i wanna buy myself

[Sleepy Weasel]

genes i think what you mean to say is that only 1 person can have any 1 particular player

and that'd suck

it'd be a race to see who could get to the website first and pickup all the best players.

Actually I thought he meant that when you buy a player you get to keep him at that original price for as long as you want to keep him. So if you buy him week1 for 300 and then he goes up to 540 in week2, you still have him for 300. Your original cash never changes, you have 1500 points or whatever to spend on your lineup. The goal is to get the lineup that combined will give you the most points. You want the 5 most expensive players on your team, the trick is to buy them when they're cheap so you can fit them all in under your cap.

Right now if I remember correctly it's done by buying players, then next week selling them and buying new players trying to predict the guys that will have the biggest positive value change each week. It's tougher because you have to know who is playing every week and the matchups or you'll pick a team for that week of 5 players and some of them won't play and you're screwed for earning points for that week. But whatever it's asking a lot to change the whole system.

Betting

Alright so I guess I understand how most of this works.

I thought you said you can buy yourself?
I can't seem to be able to.

Well anyhoots now the section that I sort of don't understand is the Betting.
So it's basically playing against the odds, or you can flow along with everyone else but you win less.

What's the point of manually inputting the score?
Unless you want to make it so that the person with the closest predicted score get's the highest cut of the pot or something, that would be cool, sort of like %'s .. but it could get pretty complicated.. but I'm a mathematical idiot so what do I know .. otherwise I don't know why you don't just make it so that we just click on the squad you think is going to win the match.. .. also an idea would be able to put money on who you think would be the MVP of the match, sort of like a bonus or something.

Just tossin' out ideas..heh

[Fit of Rage]

Dy, I don't think that the betting function will be enabled until the first week of TWL.

[Galleleo]

Donno, if its down now or so, but I have 0 money, and I cant get players for twlb.. and I havent bought anything yet.

[Mulkero]

[Dynasty]

No offense Fit but I wasn't asking why it wasn't working (I didn't even test it yet) ... I was just looking at the page and wondered what I wondered in my previous post.

Yea this is what i mean - Make it so it is like a Fantasy Football or Basketball team. With this twlm system we have now - No one is going to pick the people that usually do well, becuase they are too expensive. The price of players is going up, but our money to spend on them is staying the same - Thats the fundamental flaw in twlm right now.

Your money is staying same? You get more money when you sell your players that have made profit for you.

What do you mean sell your players? From what I have heard, you buy your players for week 1 from $1500 or however much you have, and then after that week is over, you loose all your players and have to buy new ones for Week 2, with a reset $1500 in ur account.

Maybe some people are misleading us, when do you get to sell your players? - Wouldnt it be easier and more fun to get to keep the players you buy for as long as you want?

[Awesome]

genes you are way off... lol

buy your players, after a week, they will go up or down in value most likely... making your team profit or not... your teams value rises or goes down but wont stay at $1500... if you think they will keep making you profit... keep them, if not, sell them off and walk away with a profit that can be used on next weeks underdogs

That isnt how it was last year. Last year u started with 1500 i guess it was and u baught ur pilots. If u baught someone for 300 and they went up 20 in week one then he's worth 320 when u sell him. Everything dont reset back to normal.

When you buy a player, you keep him for as long as you want.

Think of it like stocks, the only time you sell them is when you want too. You're not forced too, even if they drop a billion points, you can still hold onto them. I may by demonfaze this week because Syndicate is playing some shitty, but i might sell demonfaze next week because syndicate is playing someone good, so he probably won't do as well. You want to buy guys who will have a large + on your scale. This might be someone good going 15-3 against a bad squad, but it may also be someone whos horribly underpriced just doing okay. I had Melt Down for Anti-Scrub last season for a week when they played a bad team, he only went 4-6 or something but his value was +50 because he was so underrated. I sold him and never used him again, but that week gave me 50 more points with which to buy others.

Exactly. If I bought cig smoke for 300 (nice round number) and he went up 50 points, when i sell him i'd get credit for 350 points. If you went down 50 i'd have lost 50 points if i sold him at 250.
