SG Draft 2017 - official sign up thread

[ShiftyPowers]

I also know an RWB who would be perfect for this formation.

lol, but he won't be popular here because he plays for Man U!

Anyway, yeah, I'm a big admirer of a lot of the individual Manchester United players, and Herrera is one of them. I remember saying for years that it didn't make sense to me how he would never get a chance, and it finally took Mourinho up against it to turn the kid loose. It certainly worked. I don't think I'd go this far, but I bet Man U fans have argued that he was better than Pogba this season.

Firmino is a good pick and specially looking at your front three. It was between him and Mertens for me but Mertens made more sense at the time.

 

[poet11]

FUCK!!!!!!!!!!! I wanted Lemar so badly as my next pick for the left side. He has a perfect balance between being a winger, playmaker and making a defensive contribution. Was literally praying and pleading I get him.

I assume a PM was sent to Jabo, been six hours since Sir_Didier_Drogba's pick was posted gonna just go ahead.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Yeah that's the problem - he has been amazing this season and was nominated Man U player of the season.

 

[Jaboldinho]

Could also go for 5-4-1

There's a few guys like that around, especially in the Premier League. I think I can wait.

 

[Pogba4Now]

And Massive misses his pick once again. What an asshole.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Ok guys, I appreciate it's been real rough these past days and was down most of last night, however I feel like we are over the worst of it now and things a pretty smooth. There are still glitches but we should all be able to access and post. I will update the front page and we will restart the skip clock as of now, so Massive has six hours from now. Let's make a big effort guys to get this back on track.

There will be no time penalties for those skipped over the past days.

 

[Pogba4Now]

12 hours since last pick so both Massive and Skip can be skipped.

Don't be such as asshole, the forums were dead all day yesterday. Or at least for me

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Did you see my message? Massive can be skipped 6 hours from my message, after which it will be Skip's, turn, and he will have 6 hours (though hopefully he won't take that long)

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Massive's time will be up in about 1 hour and 15 minutes from now

I am incredibly frustrated too, nady, but we have to be fair. If we only allowed people who constantly check the forums it would just be me ranking the top players in the world. The forums were down all day yesterday.

Speaking of which, that isn't a bad project if we want to liven up the forums a little. Maybe sometime later this summer we can come up with the SG top 100 players in the world.

So I've been trying to log in since yesterday morning and it was simply impossible to do so, tried it now on my work break and finally succeeded, to then realize I had been skipped?

Yeah, I'm out of this shit.

The forums were working for me so I assumed it was for everyone else? If the forums were down for some people, I'm sorry.

 

[Dytza]

It doesn't work on my phone. It only works on an iPad I can use when I'm home and it takes a lot to load.

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

We appreciate that it was down last night Massive, but it has been up and working since early morning Europe time, and you were given well into the afternoon - honestly, in a circumstance like this, we all just have to check back at least once every few hours when we are awake and know are turn is coming up, otherwise how can we get anywhere? Can't you try to make it a habit to check in the morning before you go to work and again at lunch?

This is what I was trying to post when SG went down the shitter again:

It wasn't just down last night, it was not working during the whole fucking day. I inclusively stayed up late because I finally managed to get SG to load the main page around midnight and noticed Arnau had already posted his pick but then I tried to see it and post or at least PM my pick but it just wouln't work. Kept trying until I gave up roughly around 3 AM. Got up in the morning and went straight to work as I usually do. Figured SG would still be fucked up and even if it wasn't, was pretty sure people would understand the circumstances and wouldn't be rushing for picks...I was very much wrong though.

I don't own a smartphone, so I'm only able to check SG on my PC or (sometimes) at work.

SG is a mess and shouldn't even be online until it's working 100%. The old forum was fine and nobody needed it to evolve (?) into the useless piece of shit that it currently is, causing this kind of mischief.


I got upset but let's move on then...will make my picks soon.
