**NEW SEASON Premier League Last Man Standing (Edition XXIII, Round 1)**

[Nossmayo]

Hi all!

We start the new season with the fixtures scheduled to be played from Saturday 17th August 2013.

Anyone is free to join in (the more the merrier!) but you must start from Round 1 and continue in each round thereafter to stay in the game.

Rules

You pick a different Premier League team each round and as long as your teams keep winning you stay in the game. The important thing is you cannot pick the same team twice. So if you pick Chelsea one week that's them gone for the rest of the game for you. Once your selected team loses or draws you're out of the game.

In the event of match involving a team you have selected being postponed or cancelled, you will continue to the next round, however that team will no longer be available for selection. Should the game be played before the conclusion of the current edition and the selected team fails to win, you are eliminated.

Should you forget (or are unable) to make your selection in any round, you will automatically be assigned the first team that you have not previously selected in alphabetical order. Whenever possible I will send reminders via trust email to players that have yet to make their selection within 24 hours of the deadline.

If you fail to select in three consecutive rounds you will automatically be eliminated.

No worries. I'm on an extended holiday at the moment so my apologies in advance for any delays in posting updates etc. Anyone is free to step in and start a new thread for the next round if required. If not, players who are still in the game should post their selections in the previous round's thread.

Cheers all.

No, there should be a round 2 thread up before the next round of games

This is correct.

I only mentioned this in case a new thread isn't started before the next round (we haven't finished this one yet).

Fair enough. Sorry for rattling your cages.

Hi, as mentioned, with 8 games already played your selection for this round really was too late unfortunately.

I realise it's likely that you would've picked Chelsea anyway, but whilst I'm prepared to bend the rules slightly (it's only a game after all!) I have to be fair to all the other players who did select in time.

You're very welcome to play and we hope to see you in the next edition. I'll make a note to drop you a reminder before it starts.
