It won't be a repeat for me, I will storm the competition this year.

And while you watch you can as well take part. Watching it with your own team at stake is even more fun!

I don't fully understand it. Do you just start rooting for a team? I think that by watching it, I can figure it out.

You draft your own team from the list of players in the tournament, and based on their performances in their games, you are awarded points. For instance, if you select Gandalf to be on your team, and he scores a goal in his game, then you receive points for it.

The whole own-your-own-phantasy-team thing will be explained on a different thread before the tournament begins. The rules might seem complicated at first, but it's easy once you get the hang of it.

And if, when I open the phantasy thread, my rules seem muddled and unclear to you (even Phantom is short on sleep sometimes), I will personally answer every question you have and walk you through the steps of selecting your team!

The more people play, the more fun this will be, so I'm dedicated to helping everyone get situated.

So do you think Mordor will be able to tackle its hooligan problem this year? The amount of decapitations and Morgul blade stabbings last year really made the beautiful game ugly. When you go to a football match you really don't want to go home as a wraith enslaved by Sauron for all eternity do you.

Okay, then I'm in!
