    See sign up threads for the theme idea.

    You will be picking 11 players from any 11 of the 16 available categories. You can pick from a category only once. You can pick from categories in any order you wish.

    Once a category has been picked from 10 times, that category is locked and may no longer be picked from.

    However, on everyone's final pick, you can pick from any category, including the locked categories.

    When you pick a player or update the squad lists, indicate the number of the category you are using in brackets.

    For Example: Titus Bramble (6)

    The 6 in brackets denotes that you are picking that player for category number 6.


    Categories:

    1. Pick a player that has scored in a World Cup tournament. -x x x x x
    2. A player with zero international caps. -
    3. A player who has won three top division titles in different countries. x x
    4. A player who represented a different country than the one he was born in, at international level. - x x x x
    5. Footballers who played a match in the 19th century.
    6. UK born players who played abroad. x x x x
    7. A player who has won Ballon d'or x x x x x x
    8. Players who have played in more than one European Cup/CL final. x x x x x x

    Before anyone *, I always take the first list random.org gives out.

    I'll take the greatest player of all time. Category 12.

    I remember I got him in the landmine draft... I think I had him at CDM paired with Rafael Scheidt... good times.

    Just went through it with Broony and he didn't fit any, so I guess it isn't really that hard after all...

    I have a query, seeing as I am new to this. It might be a stupid question.

    But, is there a rule over the formation of the 11 you pick or anything? Like can I pick 3 defenders for example and make the rest up of 5 mids and 2 strikers? If you know what I mean.

    And one GK obviously.

    No restrictions on formation mate.

    Sound!

    Was just wondering if we were all restricted to a 4-4-2 or that for example. Ideal.

    But in a bigger draft you get to make two picks in a row, which is an advantage.
