MCN fantasy road race

Postby JanBros on Tue Feb 21, 2012 6:10 pm

anybody else here that has a team ?

interested in a motomatters-league ?

for those who don't know what it is : you have a budget of 10 milj, and you must "buy" 2 riders in MotoGP, WSBK and BSB, and you receive the points your racers get. There are a couple of game rounds after which you can make transfers.

more info : http://mcn.fantasyleague.com/

you should enter before sat morning 4.00 GMT or you'll mis the first race-WE ;)
if it runs, you can race it !

I'm in JB!

Do you want to set the League up or do you want me to do it??

I've played for 2 or 3 years now with a league for a local riders forum but I don't really know those guys so I end up not paying much attention. I'd be more likely to do with the members of this forum.

Not sure if this is available to some of you guys - but if it is it's a great deal!

That would be fantastic but it only works in the EU :cry:

I would be willing to pay a lot more than £29.99 for that.

I just went ahead and started a MotoMatters league since there is no benefit or responsiblity for the player who starts it.

The league PIN is 4563

I seem to remember a couple of the guys on here having something that worked for them to enable them to watch the TT.
Maybe one of them could come up with something similar.

Would something like this help in any way??

If not then is there anything I can do from this end??

That might work but I'll have to be a little more financially settled before I'm ready to put money into a 'maybe' solution.

I should mention that I do have access to all the racing I need, but the Eurosport player would make it a little easier. Mostly, I'm just frustrated that we no longer have any serious motorsport coverage here in the US.

Might be worth trying the "Free" version just to see if it works.

I used it a few years ago after the "Rossi Forum" banned me!

I was in there every day even though they'd banned my IP address!

Watch out for Luca Scassa - http://www.lucascassa.com/

He may be new but he's got fire - and Padgetts have ALWAYS built good race bikes!

What am I missing here... This is half the price of a Motogp videopass for a year, and has more racing. Does this include QP and Moto2? Has anybody ever used this?

Half? Closer to a third. Sounds like a great deal too. BSB and WSBK etc etc. Damnit though, not available on this side of the pond. Image

Well, I learned that there is actually some responsibility that comes with starting a league: I have to approve members. Oh well, no big deal. Just don't panic if it takes me a little while to approve you.

Can I ask everyone to post up their team names so that I can tell who is who?
