View Full Version : Fantasy Desmo Due?
FANTASY DD 2005 (http://www.domskidue.co.uk/fantasy.htm)
OK, here's my idea...
You get £100,000 to buy 3 riders (thats an imaginary £100,000)
1 x 620 rider
1 x 675 rider
1 x 583 rider
I will provide the lists and tables.
You will accumulate the same points for each rider, as they score at each remaining DD round (9 races).
There are no prizes - It's just for fun (unless anyone is daft enough to offer a prize)
You can only have one team.
What do you think? Ideas please.
I've got a basic list, with prices, but will seek clarification before issuing the shopping list.
There will be a one week period (to be decided) when mid-season changes can be made, otherwise you're stuck with your 3 riders - Thanks TP :cool:

I don't understand.
Sorry :D
Basically Tonio, it's like a game.
You pick Geoff Spencer £50,000, Phil Huntley £40,000 and Domski £0.02
That is then your team for the year.
If at Castle Combe, Geoff scores 70 points, Phil scores 40 points and Domski scores NIL points...
Then Tonio's fantasy team is on 110 points (70+40+0).
...and so it goes on through the year.
Just for fun thats all.

I did think about that, but if 200 people want to play, I'd never have time to work!!
Think maybe better to pick 3 and stick with them?????
:)
7th June is my date with destiny :roll:
Have a mid-season transfer window for about a week.
Everyone gets to change and then you don't have as much admin to do.
Good idea
Here's a very quick list...

I'll need help with this too, coz I don't want to upset anyone :)
e.g. How much should Chicken be? I don't know everyone. Just went roughly on Cadders results.

In French I would have said "Enorme..." :lol::lol::lol::lol:
Very interresting game, but assuming I buy Domski, who will give me the money for all stuff he's going to destroy on the bike :puzzled::puzzled:

How exactly are prices being calculated?
Is this just for the rider or the bike? let's say a rider cannot make a round, but he has a sub who will ride his bike?
If it goes off the rider, then wouldn't it be a good idea for one to know who's going to make every round barring an act of god or mechanical failure thus maximising your possible points tally?
I think Dom has just looked at the results from Cadwell and priced accordingly - and then chucked himself up at the top ;)
Nothing too scientific. The only person I know who is going to miss a round is Dickie who won't be at Castle Combe.
Jesus lads, it was only for fun, no prizes :o
How about some useful feedback?
Who is too expensive, too cheap etc?

Several peeps are sharing bikes, like Chris woods and James Thompson so they should come as a pair or £30000 for the No. 10 bike so that it wouldn't matter which was on it.
Hope one can include ones self as rider/manager, so thats No.88 and No. 23 for me now need to find a £20 rider or less on a 674.

Wasn't having a pop mate, I know it's a giggle. It would have to be a giggle to put yourself up there ;)
:lol:
To be honest I think you've had a fair stab at it, it's pretty accurate.
Someone who has faith in me... or knows something I don't :lol:
Thanks Kev :)

Weeksy aint doing it :lol:
Stick our bike in Dom(#36) rather than the rider - prob better return for the money:cool: likewise as Skids says for other bikes that might be shared.

ps: why you got Mark down for lots - he hasnt ridden the bike yet:puzzled:

OK, will do.
Mark is a good rider, I think he's easy worthy of the price :)
Price update - BIKE #36 now £50,000 with Andy & Mark as riders :)
Price update - BIKE #10 now £30,000 with James & Chris as riders :)

also including the 'shy DSC member' too!;)
we have 3 riders for the 5 remaining meetings:D
C
Oh yeah, if this seems like a good idea to do, points will only start at Castle Combe
Cadwell results don't figure ;)
Based on the race results I'd swap Dave Harris and Mike Winter around, and include Dickie in the £20k group.
Sorry Dave, not picking on you!

Well its a bit unfair otherwise isn't it, seeing as people would jump in on 200 points or something.
Makes no diff to me, whatever the masses want... I am your slave :P

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
...I'll end up on around 400+ points anyway, so shut ya face :P
[Edited on 13-5-2005 by domskidue]
maybe to you..to some its LIFE.............now Cadwell point count or im not playing......bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. ....
:pig:
Sorry Dom, I meant the £30k group. It's tough in there but looking at the two race results I'd have:
£30k
Tim Howard
Kev Ellis (based on laptimes - not results)
Antoine Josserand
Bike #10
£20k
Mike Winter
Richard Thirkettle
Dave Harris
Kev Palmer
What do you think?

Try not to melt ;)
I dunno mate, it's a bit difficult to do accurately.
I just looked at that particular group and checked the race results and laptimes for those in there that didn't finish. Based on that I think I've got a fairly accurate positioning system there.
But - it's only a game, doesn't matter really.
It's a bit risky though, I don't want to upset any of those riders!! :o
Please don't be mad at me, I'm just playing! :D
Updated with TP's prices :devil:

Best you start your own 'Fantasy' thread then Dom:o
:lol::lol:
I'm still £40k - must be some mistake, I'm only 17th in the championship!
£15k is a much more accurate description!
Other than that I think we're getting there.

Dom, I know you don't want to upset me but £15k is well over market price! At Tesco's current prices, I'm worth about £400 - and double that if I've been eating corn.

OK, then Dom, move the list to the first post in this thread (so its easily found), edit bike #36 to have 3 riders, less money too - and we are off!

Do you think £40,000 is fairer?
This has been troubling me, coz Andy rode such a blinder at Cadders.

Yeah, put that bike in my place as £40k and move me down to £15k.
I'm useless, really!
but, Mark hasnt ridden a v-twin on the track, and not done CC either.
Shy DSC member is convinced he is going to crash - and going by current form - this is extremely possible!:o:o:o

Did somebody say something then? :lol:
Well I think it's a good game Dom.
You realise you've volunteered to administer it tho!
So hows about every1 u2u their selection to Dom with a closing date of, say, 1 week before CC.
Should keep him out of trouble for a couple of hours too!
I'm just building a (basic) web page with all the details on.
Will put a link up in a bit, then I'll shout about it on the other sections of the board ;)
OK, how does this look...

Yeah, this game is rubbish! Who thought of this? And the website is crap too! And the pricing of the riders!
Someone lend me £10k?

You bloody liar :o:lol:
I'm going to give my team some personal sponsorship... I'm thinking I'll donate an extra imaginary £40k :P
Think we should have had £200,000 budget and TWO riders from each class
That's not a bad idea - I've been picking my team and I really only want another £5k
Can I have £105k?
PLEASE????
you cant change the rules now Dom:P
OK, with a 70% majority???
Either way you slice it you can't have a £60k rider and still be competitive I think.
Hrmm ...
I'm still £5k short ... I wonder if I could get a loan ...

I suppose we're proving that the game works, coz you can't have the riders you want.
