The Darts Forum

No one has claimed this yet. I feel I deserve a seventeenth chance at hosting and finishing a comp.
Bare minimum I'll make and share a spreadsheet for this so it'd be easy for another forum member to take over hosting.

Make an 11-man squad by selecting players from designated pots and assigning various roles to them.

Each player will score:
200 points for World Champion
120 points for Runner-Up
70 points for Semi-Finalist
40 points for Quarter-Finalist
20 points for Reaching Last 16
10 points for Reaching Last 32
50 points for Nine-Darter
Unseeded players score double points.

You will select one captain (C). Your captain will score double points.
Making an unseeded player your captain gives triple points. Will you trade the increased risk for a chance to win big?

You will select three attackers (A). Attackers score bonus points for hitting entertaining shots.
Attackers will score:
5 points for every 180
10 points for every 100+ checkout

You will select one goalkeeper (G). Your goalkeeper scores bonus points for not conceding, but scores negative if they perform badly!
Goalkeepers will score:
10 points for every set won without conceding a leg
25 points for every match won without conceding a set
If the opposite happens to this player, these points become negative!

No player may have multiple roles.
If your name is Randall, roles are optional.

You may send in your squad until the first match kicks off. The first match is played on December 15th.
Also, during the Christmas break, you can enter a substitute from a selected pot of underdogs still left in the tournament. Don't miss out!

I considered picking Searle I have a gut feeling he could do well.

In a bracket competition on reddit I actually picked him to reach the semis.
