Hi everyone!

We’ve had our second new Nation enter the Eurobowl, welcome to the party Greece!

With the two new national teams, Greece and Ireland, we’re now on 20 countries in the Eurobowl, the most at any ever! A big shout out to Bulgaria too who almost made an 8 player team and will be representing in the Europen this year

This also takes us to 350 players registered!

We’ve had to go back to our venue to confirm how much space they have left for us.

We therefore have to introduce a cap of 400 players which means we’ve space for only 16 more Europen teams to join in on the fun.

Remember spaces are first come first served so to sign up head over to http://www.eurobowl.eu/2018

Don’t forget, if you’re a player or two short of a Europen team then post on this thread on Talk Fantasy Football to find a player or a team viewtopic.php?f=48&t=44711

Hi, am probably being stupid, I have entered the Euro open for the first time but cannot find any rules for the team match ups. I think it’s team vs team but how do you decide who plays who? Is it nominations like ETC? Have read the rules pack but can’t find the detail so any pointers would be great

Sorry if this is wrong place/page for it. If so will delete

Cheers

The first round is a random draw then all other rounds are Swiss for team vs team then Swiss between the players.

I.e. the player with the best record on your team vs the player with the best record on their team and so on

Cheers, but just to check

Round 1, random pairing of team and random players within the team.
Player 1 wins 2-0
Player 2 wins 3-0
Player 3 losses 1-2

Assume round 2
Player 2 plays table 1
Player 1 plays table 2
Player 3 plays table 3

So TDs tie breaker(or something like that) on ranking between players and no team matching process. As had been thinking needed to have variable teams to match different options

It’s probable but not guaranteed as TDs aren’t a tie breaker it but strength of schedule is so it wouldn’t be a huge factor in the second round but get more relevant as the event moves on
