    Only two weeks to the start of La Liga, three weeks to the start of
    the PL, Serie A and Ligue 1. Let's revisit this:

    Current Season 66 tiers:

    Season 66 tiers:

    Tier 1:
    --------
    Jesus
    Lleo
    Mark
    Werner Pichler


    Tier 2:
    -------
    The Doctor
    Jesper Lauridsen
    Blueshirt
    Futbolmetrix


    Tier 3
    ------
    MH
    milivella
    Homer Simmpson


    Anybody else wants to join?


    2) Unfortunately Silver Skull disappeared, so he has forfeited his
    spot in UPT. Assuming nobody else joins, do we stick with an 11-team
    format, with only three teams in Tier 3? Drop Homer and move to 10
    teams (two tiers of 5?)? Add another bot (assuming no humans want to
    join) and stay with 12 teams?

    The current plan is to stick with three tiers and inter-tier matches.


    3) Lleo: pick two leagues.

    Lleo picked Italy and Spain, but he can still change his picks if he
    so wishes.


    4) New question: when do we start, weekend of August 14, or August 21?

    You said you were going to kick Homer out.

    You're right. If there are no takers for the extra spot, we will kick
    Homer out and have 10 players across three tiers (in a 4-3-3, 3-4-3 or
    3-3-4 formation)

    I have a slight preference for the former, thanks.

    If you have to pull a tooth, the earlier, the better!
