Is this 2 additional points if they get more than 60 minutes, or 2 points total?

That seems pretty restrictive. I'd say go 1, 3, 3, 1 since those are the minimum requirements based on the legal formations. If someone doesn't want a backup keeper, or no depth at forward, that's their problem.
 
Good thread. If we have two expansion threads, we can definitely have one Euro thread.

I like defenders getting more points than forwards for assists, otherwise, I like it.

I'm going to force people to carry at least a backup at each position -- you will get two "wildcard" spots to draft whatever position you want still. Less restrictive than most sites allow for.

2 points total for 60 minutes +

I thought about that and if enough people agree I'm fine with have defenders and keepers getting 4 points for an assist and keeping middies and forwards at 3 points for assists.
 
Can we split the contest from discussion of the tournament? I don't want to have to wade through a bunch of fantasy footie crap.
 
Really enjoyed the WC Fantasy game....and knew less about the game than I do now.

Hopefully I could compete in this one.
