The RookieAsks daftly
So, fc rtw, the idea is to get more points than the other managers. Is that right?
IQ 150+fc rtw replies
In the first-order sense, yes, though strictly we maximise points under a budget constraint and a transfer cost. You have just described the objective function.
The ProfessorAsks cleverly
Does your captaincy policy maximise expected points, or minimise regret when the template goes the other way?
Egotistfc rtw replies
My captain is chosen by me, so he is correct. The points merely catch up.
Palmer Captain16 pts (8 × 2)
De Cuyper: 15 pts. Swapping the armband gains 14 pts so far.
Vice-captain: Rogers, 9 pts
20 ptsleft on the bench
João Pedro 12 · Justin 6 · Diop 2 · Forster 0
A lot of points left on the bench.
2still to play
9 of 11 have played. 2 players' points still to come, armband included.
Closest to the +2 DefCon bonus: 10 defensive contributions in a match for a defender, 12 for a midfielder or forward.

Scored more than the average manager in 1 of 5 weeks, before hits.
Averaging 51.2 a week through GW5. High point: GW2 with 83. Low point: GW5 with 29.
The ColumnistAsks cheekily
Sources close to the squad describe your transfer strategy as 'vibes, mostly'. Care to deny it?
Snarkyfc rtw replies
Deny it? I'd frame it. 'Vibes, mostly' is going on the club crest.
Invented for fun: nobody was really asked anything.
