It's that time of year again! The Doha diamond league is on May 9th so the 2014 version of Fantasy Diamond League is about to begin! I know the last 2 years LRC has had its own league on the website, so I was wondering if people would again be interested in joining one? The website hasn't updated with the events for Doha yet, but I'm assuming itll happen sometime in the next day or so. If you guys wanna do an LRC league again, someone set it up!

Awesome! I'm gonna send the join request now. Thanks so much!
Any chance Employee 1.1 can send us emails the day before meets again if we sign up so we don't forget about them?
I was about to start this if someone else hadn't so glad it's up and going. I'll put a link on the homepage.
I've been debating whether to do the Fantasy League this year.
I waste an obscene amount of time doing research for each meet and I should be doing better things with my time like sleeping. And I can't just half-ass it. I'm all-in or nothing.
That said, I'm probably going to do though anyway because what's the Diamond League meets without fantasy track?
I put a couple links to this thread on the homepage.

Ok i joined the LRC league, but someone explain the process of picking teams
to pick your team click on "team transfers."
Pick your team from the athlete pool, and make the captain one who is likely to score extra points for a meet record, because the captain's score counts double.
Make sure to pick only athletes who will be competing in the upcoming meet, such as not Usain Bolt. And make sure to re-pick your team for the next meet or it will suck. 95% of teams will miss at least one meet, so you can guarantee a top 20 finish just by paying attention.

They usually update the team picks to have a tab separate for only those events and athletes listed to compete in the meet. Hopefully they update that soon
+1 to whoever's team name is 'Dibaba's Dropped Bottle'
So what am I doing wrong? I selected 8 people, I thought it was sposed to be 9, but it wouldn't let me get more. I clicked submit and the list went blank. I did it a couple times and don't understand how to make my team selections stick. Anyone else having this issue or am I missing something?

Are you doing something like picking more than two from the same country? In the past I've done that not knowing what was going on because the site doesn't even give you an error message.
No, once you select two from a country it blanks out all the others. I went back and did four M and F, only a max of two from any one country and clicked submit. It did the same thing. On the team selection page it does say to pick 9 athletes.
You have to pick 9. It worked when I did this.

In case they don't, check the official start list and make sure everyone on your team has a diamond next to their event, such as not Mohammed Aman.
The current list for picking your team has listed under the "Women's Javelin" a bunch of women's track athletes. No, I don't want to pick Eunice Sum in the Javelin, I want to pick an actual javelin participant.
i wouldnt recommend doing this on a mobile device. they screwed up the start lists, giving me the wrong events for stuff, such as genzebe dibaba doing the javelin
