Fantasy Football - World Cup Brazil 2014

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Just been in through a back door and the interface is looking as shite as usual. Had a stab at picking a squad but no overall squad page is appearing.

Hello? You missed three dates. We were concerned. We knocked on the front door numerous times... then walked around to the back door. Which was unlocked.

Any problems, let me know.

I look forward to seeing you all on the other side... :)

It's not the most intuitive of sites is it? :)
I went back to the original link after I'd registered and then found it.

Make sure you're signed in on the Home page.

Then under the McDonald's banner it should read:

It took me some time to fill in the password to enter the league. ;-)

Eventually got my team sorted. Had to go for eleven decent starters and eleven no-hopers to meet the criteria. Realised that everyone else has their HL name as their team name, but as mine is a little long, I'm FarParade_FC.

Cheers NVL, as that answers the first part of the question I was about to post. You're FarParade_FC.

So who's shiver101?

I'm trying to keep it HL exclusive, so 'fess up either on this thread, or by PM.

Danke.

I had that. I went back to the registration email and clicked the link and it worked.
It can't find the league though. I have to keep searching for it. :roll:

I'm loving it. ;D
