You mean it got worse?
I thought outing Harper certificate fraud would mean her role in subsequent seasons will be limited, seems I thought wrong.

Let me take a quick stop at The Night Agent S3 before I continue. wink

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 6:21am On Feb 24
First it was I couldn't make the playoffs, now it is I am lucky to make the playoffs spots.

Just finished INDUSTRY season two.

With the amount of back stabbing going on in this show, it is a wonder any of the characters still have a spine left to support their skeletal frame. grin cheesy

In Bruno Fernandes I eternally trust smiley
Calibrator:
The last time I was waiting on Bruno Fernandes last GW match to save my H2H 2024/2025 against Leicester City. Bro dropped a masterclass.


About to run it back cheesy grin


By the way, Gandoki my G is doing a very good job wiping the floor with these resting-on-old-glory-days FA Cup paper tigers tongue🤝👌
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 2:06pm On Feb 23
Bruno Fernandes has never failed me as a last GW saving option before but even in the unlikely event he doesn't drop his customary Monday night match 15 pointer....

At least three of those below me in the playoffs positions don lose, my Playoffs spot is confirmed for another GW grin grin

The first "kidnap" attempt went so well, Dunk had to do it properly the second time.

Scenes when we have to choose a temporary playoffs admin from the top 8 because the permanent admin didn't make the playoffs. cheesy grin

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 8:44am On Feb 20
Communication is key and you were elevated to admin duties with all the attendant responsibilities and authority vested in the role concerning the Leagues.

Most of the back and forth on this issue would have been avoided if you had just exercised your admin powers and communicated this on time.

Now on to the next GW, who is on my menu for GW27?

Wow! It is you! 🫵 😁
iamoyindamola:
Good morning guys
We will go with the initial gameplay and setup of the h2h which is to have play offs at the end of GW35.
So practically, h2h end for some at gw35 and it applies for those who are in the relegation zone. Relegation is for 19 and 20 while first 2 in Carling Cup gets promoted.

Note: I am only creating the mini h2h league for fa Cup, carling cup will use the first 2 position for this season alone while we return to default next season
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 9:53am On Feb 19
Maybe we should free his neck small so he can breathe, it is starting to look like we are bullying the FPL less privileged. 🤣 😂

Kpai your ram next GW, I wan drag our admin through the mud too, I will personally send him out of the playoffs spots seh grin
tshabalala:
Let make that happen grin grin grin

The only trophy missing so far in this journey is defeating raumdeuter and by God grace I'll get it done next GW.

Make we free that mid table guy (Emaprince)?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 9:40am On Feb 19
Shoutout to everyone who ever doubted if I could make a comeback.

Tshabalala, is this the FA Cup they were hyping that we won't thrive in when we got promoted?

Scenes when we beat these paper tigers all the way and get to recreate last season Carling Cup final matchup in this Season FA Cup cheesy grin

After being the highest scoring manager for three different GWs, I am set to be the lowest scoring winning manager this GW.

My haters will not believe their eyes this evening grin cool
Calibrator:
Third time I will be the GW highest scoring manager in the FA Cup.

Going to be in the top half of the FA Cup for the first time this season. grin

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 7:35pm On Feb 17
Yup, for playoffs to be activated, @ that last knockout option, you are supposed to set a knockout round for GW36-38 by picking 3 in the drop-down options.

Did you select three rounds of knockout when you were creating this season FA Cup?



You sure you sabi this job you collect at all? grin embarassed
iamoyindamola:
That's what I am saying I didn't activate anything
Ibime have created h2h before, let's ask him if any anything is applied to differentiate Play offs from no play offs

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 6:27pm On Feb 17
We only started getting worried when we noticed matches run till GW38 unlike what we were used to.

The most important thing from the screenshot is that having scheduled matches till GW38 is not a cause for concern which is our main cause of worry, the league will kick into playoffs mode from the preset GW35 and the if activated clause comes into play.


What is the worst that could happen?
Worst case scenario is no play-off fixtures after GW35 and we will create the playoffs ourselves in the days leading up to before GW36.

Let's give the admin the benefit of the doubt and proceed with our strategies as originally planned since he said he didn't tamper with the usual settings.


timbros:
Check the first bullet point...

"If activated, the top managers in the H2H table enter a knockout phase..."

If activated... Meaning that if it's NOT activated, it become a straight round robin till GW38.

But last season, abi na season before lats, there was a change we didn't know about till the play off started. Before we thought it's 1st vs 8th, 2nd vs 7th, 3rd vs 6th and 4th vs 5th.... But that season, the fixtures was random.

Probably this is a change that started this season since iamoyindamola said he didn't make any change from last season.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 5:15pm On Feb 17
I know one ultra papyrus tiger wey don tear his 2nd wildcard to play me and I still beat nonsense commot from his head that GW tongue
iamoyindamola:
I just know i set up the league same way I did last season
The paper tigers should please use up all their chips abeg

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 3:49pm On Feb 17
You no fit see top 10 sef grin
Emaprince:
hehehe....

Keep dreaming on your wet bed.

Anything can still happen this season as long the play off exist.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 3:07pm On Feb 17
"....even if regular fixtures are scheduled till GW38."

Everybody hold your horses oooo and don't tear Iamoyindamola clothes biko.

The playoffs may be there after all like tshabalala said grin

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator: 2:07pm On Feb 17
If we go down this route, does it mean that whatever happens in the remaining FA Cup fixtures from 36-38 is inconsequential and whoever ends up top there by GW38 permanently forfeit his claim to being called the Champion of the 2025/2025 FA Cup. We can't have two champions from a single league.

That is the most important part because this is a yearly competition and barring unforeseen circumstances, we are going to be playing for a long time as long as Premier league exists.
I don't want a situation whereby years down the road, someone like Emaprince will be disparaging my 2025/2026 FA Cup win either because I won outright without playoffs or I won it via playoffs from 6th position.

So fellow FA CUPers, what is it going to be?
Do we all agree to forfeit after GW35 on the main FA Cup table? cheesy
timbros:
We need the play offs.

He simply create a mini league for top 8 from GW36.

Playoffs is the normal format for FA Cup right from time. We can't change this year. Mini league h2h will correct the early mistake.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Nairaland Fantasy Premier League 2025/2026 by Calibrator:
If we all agree to leave this season FA Cup as it is without playoffs - - - - - Emaprince no get any chances of making top spot.


If on the other hand, we agree to create a separate playoffs league for this season - - - - - Emaprince still no get chances of making the playoffs.



Which kind FPL life Emaprince come come like this grin cheesy grin cheesy
