Actually they were not all for funds and some were mistakes (I can't be alone in being a long jump from perfect ) and a couple were to be playing 11. Mathematically taking a hit (-4) to bring in a playing player (minimum +2 usually) when the sold is about to go down in value and the purchased up in value and the alternative is a man down is usually a good decision

Re: Price changes
He may well drop, but not tonight. In fact, the way people are thrashing around to get Sanchez I wouldn't necessarily rule out a 0.2 drop by next GW as he's shedding previous rises which we've seen being lost rapidly on other players.I Am Ville wrote:Any chance walcott might drop?

In terms of numbers he's done about -12k today according to CtC and is about 10% to a drop.

Re: Price changes
Up to 30%
Sanchez and Kane heading for further rises. Aguero 40% of the way to a second drop but it does look like some still have him; he can't be in over 1 1/2 million dormant teams.

From the spreadsheet
Overall teams (sample)
Ownership 42.5% (1.4% benched him! )
But 47.5% of the "Active" teams, which FPLD counts as 60% of the total
Which yields: at gw14 deadline, 14% of all teams owned Kun AND hadn't made a transfer in last 4 gws
That's ~580k of the 1,840k who owned him at deadline
Beware tho the FPL figures would give 44.1% ownership at deadline, not 42.5%, so FPLD sample must not be that accurate and representative
We might roughly approximate that 1300k Kun owners were active teams, and 410k have already sold him after the deadline so far

Am i the only person thinking he is a great transfer in this week for arsenals run? At 7.9 he has to be great value!

Re: Price changes
Didn't drop yesterday; still hovering.Weisenwolf wrote:I didn't check. Aguero is in the drop zone now
Sterling, Coutinho, Berkley, Fuchs & Heaton all heading South too. Heaton a possible concern for some but the others must be expected.
Heading North: Ian Nacho & Defoe unsurprisingly, Chelsea's Courtois, Hazard & Alonso along with Foster, Zaha & Sanchez who is heading for the glorious 3rd rise. I'd be surprised if any of this lot don't get there.
Chasing pack includes Valencia, Pieters, Austin, Can, Kane, Barnes & Siggy.
Obviously just focusing on those the boards suggest FISO folk talk about; sorry if I've missed anyone of note.
I wonder; have we pretty much already done our transfers? Is the Friday night decision a thing of the past? Do we now do it all Sunday/Monday night or even during the weekend?

I think Mark (of FFS) addressed this a few weeks ago.

Re: Price changes
Well, FFS may claim that FPL use other resources and that FFS have no direct control, but I think I'd struggle to find mainstream examples of a player being flagged or unflagged without an accompanying tweet from FFS.
Perhaps FPL just read the same news sources but all that controversy around the international injuries and flags seemed to originate from dubious official sources yet still ended up with flagging after FFS reported the players as doubtful.
There's definitely a synergy between the two and I'd actually be quite surprised if FPL use any source other that FFS. I'm not saying FFS deliberately mislead, but I think the onus is squarely on them to get the flagging as accurate as possible since it clearly is used heavily, if not solely, by FPL.

Re: RE: Re: Price changes
No, Mark as good as admitted that he is advising FPL on flags. The point he was making was that he has no influence on price movements and doesn't know the ins and outs of how they work.Stemania wrote:I think Mark (of FFS) addressed this a few weeks ago.

In my opinion he is causing players who aren't injured to be flagged on the basis of rumour and hearsay. Which means it isn't even-handed because rumour and hearsay about a Stoke player doesn't get picked up and replicated in countless other online articles in the same way that a rumour about an Arsenal, Chelsea or City player would do. But there it is, he is very resistant to hearing it and falls back on the argument that even a slight doubt deserves a flag in order to protect unwitting managers from making bad transfer decisions.

Re: Price changes
Yeah, I don't doubt that FFS send regular updates to FPL as a courtousy, but I seem to remember something like Mark recently saying "I know we’re a source they've use for at least six seasons" so at least it doesn't seem to be an official link.Mav3rick wrote:Well, FFS may claim that FPL use other resources and that FFS have no direct control, but I think I'd struggle to find mainstream examples of a player being flagged or unflagged without an accompanying tweet from FFS.

I'm not saying FFS deliberately mislead, but I think the onus is squarely on them to get the flagging as accurate as possible since it clearly is used heavily, if not solely, by FPL.
I wouldn't blame FPL if they did decide to just lean very heavily on FFS to be honest - it's one of the most up to date sources of consistent FPL-related news out there (if not the best). It's clearly FFS' responsibility to pass on all the info they come across to their community - the problem seems to be in the lack of subtlety in the flags in the game as a whole, where FPL get passed a tweet (be it by FFS or whoever) and rush to a 75% yellow flag. I'm fully in agreement with your suggestion for a much more thorough flagging system with a 90% flags that doesn't affect NTIs, for example.
I don't really understand RNZ's comment that Mark 'as good as admitted' that he advises them - as if it's some sort of nefarious conspiracy theory that is being hidden - Mark either says he is advising them or he doesn't and I'm sure if he was asked straight up he'd give a transparent answer.

Maybe FISO should register its own twitter feed to compete against FFS twitter feed. Let's see if we are able to replace FFS as the leading FPL-related information source. If so, then we could manipulate flags the way we want.

eff price drops - [Austin] 99% to a drop now.

I don't know, maybe I just feel annoyed with myself that I'm backed into a corner right now. The aggressive falls have advantages, but right now you just have no option to give it a week and see what happens as you'll lose 0.3.
