Right, I suppose someone should comment on it (even if this is all a product of phantom's imagination):
FC Valinórë is certainly living up to its namesake. Making the Arda version of El Clásico look like a walk in the park . . . And I suppose the last Clásico did not happen?

So far, I must say I am rather pleased with the way all my "picks" (from different areas) are doing. It is funny by the way (I haven't expected that) that it's really like watching "real" sport league, you are looking forward to your favourite teams playing yet completely uninterested in some matches (like for example in my case the AC Beleriand and Doriath losers or the even more lame Dwarves stuff ).

Heh, this must be the worst start I've had, for normally I start with gusto and only fail in the end...
Maybe it's the other way around then this year? And hey, who had Ancalagon as a captain this time around if not Gwath? (Oh, and Sally too, I see, congrats!)

I steered clear of the 2 Valinor team players, for the fact that I had absolutely no clue what the outcome would be in that match. If I can't convince my head to be moderately sure about an outcome, I stay away...but still...3-0 thumping by FC. Woah, TTN could have never predicted something like that. I feel lots more "no clue what will happen is only going to get more abundant.
Anyway, stay tuned TTN has it's up-to-date power rankings and of course, predictions posts coming right up.

In case you weren't aware- it's trading time, people.
You are allowed unlimited trades before Round 2, so you can completely remake your team if you wish. The star limit is still FOUR.

I quite like the performance of my team this far, I did not expect so much from it. I might be tempted to throw (the anyway rather random, in comparison to the others) Frumgar away, but given what matches are coming right now, I think he might still deserve a chance to prove his worth. Let it be called a test.
I will do only a minor change then for this time: switching the captainship from Saruman to Galadriel, where, after all, it should be more properly Therefore: Handy Hippies - "We are doing well, but we could do better" GK Uglúk (Isengard) DF Frumgar (Anduin) DF Mauhúr (Isengard) DF Watcher (Misty Mts) DF Radagast (Rohan) MF Tar-Míriel (Armenelos) MF Estë (Valimar) MF Gorbag (Mordor) MF *Galadriel (Wilderland) C MF *Khamul (Shire-Bree United) FW *Saruman (Isengard)

You have no idea how hard it was not to just copy Gwath's team again.

While I am obviously disappointed, I am unsurprised...well, except for Turin from whom I was hoping for much more.
However, I only have one change I want to make. I figure Turin can't keep doing horribly forever. -- MF Aegnor ++ MF Galadriel Kuruharan’s Offensive Fever Swamp GK Mumakil DF Frumgar DF Borondir DF Haldad DF Gorlim MF Luthien MF Yavanna MF MF Galadriel FW *Finrod FW **Turin C FW *Sauron

Cough cough, Kuru, isn't, like, Galadriel, like, with an asterisk? So that'd make five, which shouldn't be possible? (Unless I misunderstood the rules.)

Aye, Galadriel has 1-star. Puts you 1 over the limit for this round, Kuru.

So this was my team of mediocrity on round 1.

I feel like we'll do okay, now that FC Val isn't facing Real Val. I'll go ahead and leave mine for now.

Speaking of extra stars, Nogrod, Felarof has one. So you're over the limit, too.

How is it, if we do it like follows... You phantom throw a dice as to which of the non-starred Rohan defenders I'll get into my team, as surely I picked Felarof not because of it's splendid individual performance or overpowering love for the beast, but just being a Rohan defender. For to be honest I do have the results already and if I was allowed to pick another Rohan defender myself I theoretically could check if some of them made points or took yellow cards (I checked the post in haste in the morning just to see how the games ended to satiate my curiosity, but didn't actually read them any more closely) and make my choice accordingly. So even if I wouldn't do it, it would sound fair to me if you tp just randomized it, whether I get Snowmane, Shadowfax or Radagast into my team for this round 2. And there would be no second thoughts in anyone's mind whether this was done decently. So what say you? That way my team would be then: Noggportunistics GK – * Elrond of Eriador DF – Balrog #5 of Inter Beleriand DF – Celeborn of Anduin DF – ??????? of Rohan (to be randomized by tp) DF – Uinen of the Sea MF – Elwë of Wilderland MF – Yavanna of FC Valinor MF – *Phantomwolf of T-I-G FW – *Húrin of Hithlum (C) FW – Thuringwethil of Anfaughlith FW – *Miriel of Real Valinor

I see that phantom already jumped the gun . . .
So, to morm, McCaber, Eomer, Nerwen, Eonwe: I'll post the results of Group G in nine hours. So if you want to use players from that group in your phantasy squad, now's the time to do so. (This is also to call dibs on the next post for my fellow writers.)

Ah, sorry Nog. I didn't spot that.
Dice says 4, so- Shadowfax for your squad. And yes, to confirm what Nilp said- if someone didn't make any trades at all before this round you can switch out a couple of your players if they have not played yet and their replacements haven't played yet. Before the third round you'll have a bit longer to make trades (7 or 8 days), as it will be your final chance to make unlimited trades.

Hm, I should have gone with 'Forza Nargothrondia' with that last one, to point out AC Beleriand's Italian namesake.
Anyway, Eomer gets 32 pts from Beren and Fëanor alone. Hohoho, so lucky~
