[Fenil]

Name: Fenil
Interested: Yes

 

[Dipak]

Why do you need a form for that?

 

[Dipak]

The "Most Dismissals" and obviously the entire HoF would've taken some effort. Well done.

Fenil, excellent review! I especially love the presentation and the idea of pros & cons of it. The person who did it initially must've been a genius ()

EDIT: You even added "Varun" & "Pakistan" down there.

 

[Fenil]

Glad to see the quite a few Pakistanis there. None of our player won the top award in any of the list which shows we were not dependent on an individuals and our win was a team effort.

 

[Fenil]

You even added "Varun" & "Pakistan" down there.

Seriously, where?

Fenil, excellent review! I especially love the presentation and the idea of pros & cons of it. The person who did it initially must've been a genius ()

Yes, he is genius enough to edit his post after realizing he needed to type something different.

 

[VC the slogger]

Why do you need a form for that?

That's because some inexperienced members instead of declaring interest go asking for teams,and when they don't get what they wan't they start moaning and stuff like that.The idea is so that people declare interest via form and after a day or two after a good number of people have declared interest,I'll assign the teams to those who're interested based on experience,reliability and what I experienced with some managers who didn't do a good job in the first season.I'm gonna give teams in which its tough to get the right combination of legends to experienced managers while teams in which the legends are easy to select will go to lesser experienced managers.
