I know no player other than flintoff and watson fits into that slot.But what if watson doesn't comes for next test.
watson doubtful for perth.
I have a personal problem.I have taken mitchel jonshon who hasen't played this series so for and may not play the remaining matches.He comes under E category.My remaining budjet=0,as there is no other bowler under E category .As per current substitution rules we are allowed to substitute only 1 player, so i'm not able to remove mitchell.

This has been a bit of a disater for me. I'm regrettig that i didn't use Collingwood or Pieterson. I just had to go with Strauss and Cookie, both miserable failures. Bowling deparment i've done well on thankfully.
Oh and can Martyn be removed from the List?....And will his retirement mean that those that have him can make that extra change for their team?

Can't do much about that sorry, a lack of all-rounders in both teams means you don't have much of a choice.dileep.vaka said:
Sorry mate, but you'll have to live with that. As you have no budget left, you don't have much of a choice, unless you of course change one of your A players to a D player to try and make room for that switch.dileep.vaka said:
How well are you doing? Top-half?GDR said:
Damien Martyn has been removed so you can make two changes if you had him in your side.
Shouldn't really have 'all-rounder' in test fantasy cricket.
And how the **** am i suppose to tweak my side with only 1 change allowed. Same problem dileep.vaka has... what James... make one change then another after 5 days... what a waste of my ****ing time!
Noticed that the feedback form isn't working... not supprised.

I think there should be more than 1 substitution at a time.Other website provide more than 1 substutoin .1 substution per 5 days is also strange.There may be occasions where the gap between 2 matches may be greater or less than 5 days.It would be better if we have some 'x' substitutions allowed between matches.Snowy said:
According to present rules i have to go with mitchel jonnson(not playing) and flintoff(forced to take as there is no other option).If i have to remove mitchel jonnson i have to wait for 1 more match.
There may be some cases where player gets injured just before the playing day.If we had made a substitution in the prev 5 days,then we have to go with him as per present rules. This is just a stupidity
You have added a extra substution for people who have martyn in their team.This gives them edge in competition.....
ps1: This is just a suggestion.
ps2: In my opinion, we must go with best team possible for every match
ps3: Having a player in our team who is not playing is .........
ps4: If i was harsh in writting this ....please forgive me

See forums are for discussion.And I think game can be made by discussion.Snowy tried to make a suggestion.If u are administrator of this and wants to stop people from doing this.Then people will simply stop playing fantasy.People are not going to loose any thing.Perm said:

And why not, Test teams play all rounders.Snowy said:
If you didn't, then what would Flintoff be classed as?
So, you've got the same problem everyone else has then - the game isn't meant to be easy.Snowy said:
It's never not worked for me, so I'd be quite surprised it is broken.Snowy said:

Thanks Marc and Perm for taking the time to respond in an appropriate fashion. They've both said what I would have said so I'll leave it at that.
On a different note, I'm starting to plan the next round of changes to the software that powers our Fantasy Cricket competitions, so if anyone is willing to put their views across in an adult manner, feel free to do so here - http://www.cricketweb.net/fantasycricket/survey.php
Regarding the form, it is now fixed.

Question: why can't we pick Voges or Symonds? They're in the Aussie squad, after all

Yeah I accept that initially it was my mistake.But after that it was not in my hands.
I'm not feeling bad that i have taken him.Infact that helped me to take better player in other slot.
YYY= jonnson(in my case).
I will just give u a example what can happen
I want to remove YYY => I have create a room by substituting other player
Day1:so I remove XXX player ang get XXY player into team.
Day4:News that XXY is not playing the match because of so and so reason.(no one can say which player gets injured or ....)
Day5-Day9: Match day (Now at this point i have 2 players who are not playing)
Now what should i do.remove XXY or YYY????
You may argue that game is becoming intresting.But the person playing it will get bored/frustrated.
Ps1: I just want to see cricket web fantasy at top position compared to other fantasy games.
ps2: I'm not asking for my benfit.At present i'm at top of the leauge.And i don't mind loosing the competition.
Flintoff can be there in both the categories.If there is no allrounder slot.marc71178 said:
All rounder concept is good.But when u have only one all rounder there is no point of having a slot for that.But from next test match onward it would be fine as watson will come into the game.
Mr Janes.This is most probably my last post on this tpoic...James i think u can understand the problem.I don't care what ever my position is...I tried to give u a suggestion whether u accept it or not.

dileep.vaka is getting frustrated like i have been.
You must delete the all rounder or include more players in it... like channel 9, Richie Benaud and the commentry team says S.Warne, B.Lee and A.Giles are both bat and bowlers. (although i'm not even sure A.Giles is even a cricket player)
I'd have hate to have seen the 'older' fantasy cricket versions. C'mon guys, a site like this is first year uni php scripting at best, listen to your users, make some changes for the better.

As far as I can see, there are currently only two users complaining. The whole idea of fantasy cricket is that you don't know what's going to happen; you're going to get injuries or players being dropped. When you sign up, it's quite clear that you only get one change per week, so it might be a good idea to keep 2 or 4 points handy when you make your first team. I've had Watson in my team from the start, and I don't plan on changing him. Yes, I could make more points with Flintoff, but if I had him in, I wouldn't be able to have better players in my team. It's all about compromising to get what you think will the be the team that will get you the most points.Snowy said:
