OK guys this is the problem, i'm playing this footie fantasy league for the very first time, and i was kind of messing around and 'reset my formation'. It then told me to pick the team again, when i clicked to see my team it had disappeared and told me to pick a team again!

Really? I easily fit in great players with decent players. The key is to pick the ones who will play through out the tournament.
 
Remember also, you can make 3 transfers every day in the group stages.

It took me about 2 hours to upload my team - very slow.....very popular???
 
2 hours???? i still have to pik the players, but i have joined the league!

initially the players from group of death should'nt be taken coz they wont score that much goals.. this of course in my opinion

Also i think the UEFA Euro 2008 fantasy would hav been much suited as its quite user friendly
 
Im in SAJ!!! just registered, lemme in! Cmonnnnnnnn Turkey!!!!!!!!!

Now its normal service. IT was too slow between 1 and 7. I had leave half of my team. selected other half team in 10 minutes. Advice to all sign up at night time(BST).
 
I havent heard of 90% of these players.

How can I check who plays - who doesnt for these teams?

remember folks, you can make 3 changes every day in the group stages of this competition.
 
I got this off the organisers -

Hi

Firstly - thanks for your mail to support and patience with us getting back to you. Secondly - and genuinely; let us apologise for the site performance over the last couple of days.


The game site has been performing extremely slowly due to an 'issue' with displaying mini-league tables (which we isolated on Monday morning). This would have caused logging on and timing out errors. Therefore we have temporarily 'switched off' the feature to view the 'League of Leagues' and your 'Mini League' table. The site is now running at it's regular speed (and has so since 2.30pm yesterday).

Within the next couple of days we will switch back on the 'League of Leagues' table and your 'mini league' tables. Obviously our key concern is the 'issue' which has slowed the site down is fixed and does not occur again - so we need to test the 'fix' thoroughly prior to releasing in the game.


Also if you have friends or colleagues that want to join a mini league - they will be able to so - once the facility is 'switched on'. Their cumulative points will show in the 'mini-league'.

However: Please be assured that if you have either set up or joined a mini-league you are still there - you just cannot view your table temporarily. Your mini-leagues will appear with all of your points and positions in the next couple of days. We will communicate this to all game players formally in the next 12 hours

Once again we apologise for the affect this has happened in your enjoyment of playing Euro Fantasy Football as we do understand how frustrating the site speed has been - especially over the opening weekend!! But now the fix has been put in place, we hope you can enjoy the rest of the competition.

A very apologetic 'Customer Support' team..


So, it looks like we wont be able to provide league table updates for the next couple of days.
 
Further email received :-

Hi,

We're sorry some of you have experienced problems with the fantasy football game.

Our game supplier, SilentManager, experienced technical problems which affected the speed of the site on Sunday & Monday.

All teams are temporarily unable to view their mini-league, however they remain in their league and will still gain points accordingly.

By way of a gesture of good will to game players we would like to give all teams a bonus two transfers for the Quarter-Final stage of the competition. All teams will now receive 12 transfers at 00.01 BST on 19th June 2008 which may be used for the four Quarter-Final matches.

Again, we apologise for any problems that you have experienced and we hope that you will shortly be able to view your mini-league.

Good luck with the rest of the game!
 
Guys is it just me, ore do you have this same problem as well?:)

The thing is that everytime i try and log in to the site, it says that my E-mail and/or Password are incorrect (whereas i know for a fact they are both correct, i even used the 'forgotten passwork' feature!)
 
Has anyone made any transfers ? I couldn't log in until 5:15pm, now I keep having errors in my transfers ! Well, no points for me today it seems, unless Im not the only one, I will slip a few places.

happens to me alot!!!! :(
 
They've had some problems with their software. If you cant make transfers they have posted on their site that you email them the transfers through.

Once the league tables have been updated I'll post it on here.
 
I dont know how they expect us to email out transfers without knowing out team, I give up until the site is running again

I know they players, but i have no idea of their value
 
latest from they site

http://eurofantasyfootball.metro.co.uk/

You will be aware that SilentManager, the game provider, have been experiencing technical problems with the website over the last few days which has affected the speed of the site.

In order to fix the site we have had to temporarily close the fantasy football game.

The site will be available again at 12pm (Mid-Day) Saturday 14th, June 2008

We sincerely apologise for this, and will be honouring transfers that are emailed to us. The prize from Round 2 will still apply, all email transfer requests will be processed and the points allocated accordingly.

We are working on making the site available again as soon as possible.

Please send transfer requests with the following information:

Your team name
The name of the player you want to transfer out
The name of the player you want to transfer in
Please send your transfer requests using this facility.

Please note: We can only make transfers within your budget allocation with the requested time of transfer before the transfer deadline. Unfortunately we cannot access your team line-up on your behalf.

Please call 01273 682277 if you require further information.

Please refer to this list of players
