nah, site is clearly broken

others reporting on twitter too

already tweeted @ mg and emailed too

Standard practice for sites when site goes down before lock is either cancellations or refunds of lost entries.(meaning entries that don't cash get 2 pounds back)

Will be interesting to see how they handle it. If they don't cancel it, then they're losing even more overlay than usual since nobody will have been able to enter new teams in the last half hour, plus potential refunds. If they do cancel their one big weekly tournament, that would really annoy their customers who spent a lot of time entering teams.

can get on the page now but it's too late to edit lineups anyway

Got 50+ different teams with loads of players not starting. Very shoddy. Anyone know how many entries it got? Hopefully fewer than usual to give me a glimmer of hope...

pretty sure it got under 3k, but imo it should be cancelled

i think i have 34 entries and at least half of them have at least 1 player not playing

Just assessing the damage now - looks like 7 affected lineups for me (all of them entered twice in the £2 and once in the £10).

I'd prefer that they run the tournament and be generous with refund requests, but maybe that's asking a bit much. A cancellation would be tilting given how much time it takes to make teams.

yeah +1

surely if they cancel they will have to cancel every single contest that started at 3pm today, including 10 slots etc? seems like overkill as long as they are prepared to fork out some refunds

idk

11 teams affected for me, £42 down the drain I think
particularly annoying when some of the teams are punts with players that you only have in one or two lineups

Cheers. Had Mane and Giroud in a high % of teams which is frustrating.

Aguero off just to kick us while we're down

Took me about 3 hours to make my teams. If they cancel I'll feel even more merked. MERKED.

I might win quite a lot of money today if nothing crazy happens in late game

@Timmongiat @WorldCupDanB @Bigo1_ If you haven't emailed support please do so. We are going to do right by you and all our users.

Would assume that means they'll be generous with refunds if you have any team you couldn't edit and didn't cash.

yeah basically everyone blanked for me and i'm still gonna win a ton on 50/50 and h2h. think i'm going to miss on the TUs though which sucks.

gpps didn't go well but i didn't have many LUs. wish i had made 3-5 more.

what's the competition like for Champions League vs say EPL & MLS?

I would assume it's more sharp since it's a midweek afternoon that the matches start .... but it could also mean a lot more unedited rosters with guys who don't start?

pretty much. i can't stand it. and the vast majority of people won't know who the value plays from second/third tier leagues are. and you'll need those to fit messi and ronaldo into your lu.

Who ever does the best research on obscure not well known teams usually wins a lot of money. There were days when everyone on bayer leverkusen was 3k and it was glorious.

For example, I've already discovered a team that has a defender who is cheap and takes their penalties. **** like that is $$$$$$$$.

Yeah that might be the most tilting sub I've ever experienced in fantasy football. 3 more minutes on the pitch would've been enough. In both tourneys too. gg - hope there's nobody further down leaderboard I've not seen and it ends with us 1-2.
