SGW League Fantasy Football 2011-2012 Season Thread

With the end of the current season of Premiere League and its fantasy game, I thought that before the 2011-2012 season opens (usually mid July), it would be a good idea to make a thread to see before the "pre-season" starts (when you can do as many transfers as you wish before season starts, between late July and mid August) if you guys and gals are up to have a SGW league for the next season. I head about the idea to register two leagues this time, one the usual way we had (week points, and ranked with season points), and other being a head-to-head league, (where you face every week a different team from the league and the one with most points wins the match, possible to draw, if I get it right).
Leagues cannot be registered yet as the game is still available to see results from the finished season, game isn't yet closed for the next season preparation/coding. Thus opening this thread already to discuss about the future. :)

Short Guide
[spoiler]For people who have already an account: enter last year login, and follow the instructions. It changed a bit compared to last year, but same steps, just that they will ask more things. Don't forget, transfers are free and unlimited until Aug 13, so don't worry if you cannot think of a team when they ask you to enter one.
For newcomers: create an account by registering, follow the instructions. Basically this game is about picking a team, and whatever players you selected do individually or as a whole (their club), you will get points in your team. It's like managing a team, with transfers, you can also join leagues with other managers (sgw league for example I created) and you compete to have the best score. The score depends as I said oin what do these players do in reality (the results of football games every weekend in the English Premier League. It works also for team as a whole, if they conceded goals for example.
To join a league, after you registered your account and entred a team, you'll be able to manage your team, choose captain, and even now, a vice captain (new thing) and go to league section to create or join existing ones.[/spoiler]

Yes, the fantasy PL game is hosted by premierleague.com official site of English PL.
Now it's just end of season for people to check their results, I expect in a bit that it becomes unaccessible and weeks later when the website programmers are done preparing/coding, the 2011-2012 pre-season will start to choose teams and join friends' leagues before it starts.

Yes indeed, even though during my first year the SGW league had less players (15) than last two years (about 20-25).
