Games Football Manager 2011

[Cerb]

Ohhh. I guess that makes sense. I like to take my time mostly. I often watch all the main highlights of games to see if I can pick up on anything but is there any point? I've heard that what's shown doesnt even always reflect what's happened?

 

[Everz]

It tries to as accurately as possible I think. I do watch the matches as I love to see my players and if some has had a poor game it shows on the highlights tbh.

 

[Cerb]

Still Unbeaten as of last night. Granted I only played 3 more games, but I won one of the 7-1 Mido+Zaki= Easymode.

 

[Everz]

Yeh seen some of the points people got on there.. you'll need a good save to get through on there i think!

 

[Cerb]

yeah some impressive scores no doubt....what are they at telling everyone their signings though? Where's the sense of comeptition?

 

[Everz]

Haha, I have no idea, think most people just use it is as a social till it gets to the latter stages.

 

[Cerb]

This is treu....I'm still not going to tell them about Hleb tho

I had a look in the Nigeria thread, I'm guessing your Samoth because I'm pretty sure I've seen you use that avatar in here?

 

[Everz]

One and only mate. Hleb is a beast no matter what .

 

[Everz]

Woot, so far I'm leading the way in Nigeria by a good 40 points! .

 

[Cerb]

Nice So far I've still only lost one game this season (4-0 to the team at the top) but I've been drawing way to many, especially awa from home. This Egyptian league is nuts tho, I regularly put 5 or 6 past teams and lsat night I was playing the team in last place, decided to play the b team to get some key players some rest, and beat them 9-1! Now the queston is...do I keep in the lads to managed that score?

 

[Everz]

They were the team in last place, however the confidence would be rocketing, maybe chop and change a few of the better performers from the A team in with the B team?

 

[Cerb]

So how have you done in your group?

Still a few hours to go but if I calculated my score right then I'm in 4th place well above 5th!

 

[Everz]

Around about 4th myself lol, got 152 but some have come in with 170s.. insanity .

 

[Cerb]

I got 314 myself, five points behind the guy in 3rd Top guy got close to 350 I think!

 

[Everz]

Fuck!, thats a nice total mate.

 

[Aoami]

What is this league thing? I want to play instead of doing revision.

 

[Everz]

Thedugout Championship mate.

Well the way our league was set up it seems to make for big scores.

You get 10 points for every place you finish above 10th. so thats 100 for first

10 points for every place you finish above your media preditction (so me being 3rd but coming 1st that was 20)

An extra 50 points for winning the league

then plus or minus points for your points total and goal difference.

Wasnt all that hard really. I went on a run of winning 19 league games in a row at one point!

 

[Everz]

Ahh yeh does indeed make for a big score, ours was

Points system:
League performance
Starting with 100 points, you will be deducted ten points for each league position that you fall below first – so 90 points for second, 80 points for third etc. If you win the league, you will receive a bonus of 50 points on top of the 100 you have already earned.

You will also receive a bonus for every league point you score above 50 points – so if you scored 70 league points, you would have 20 bonus added to your score, regardless of your final finishing position.

Cup performance
5 points for every round progressed (excluding the first round, which does not involve Premier League clubs)
15 points bonus for winning the trophy.

Continental performance
There will be no awards for African performance.

Media Prediction
10 points will be awarded for every position you finish above the club’s media prediction, and 10 points deducted for every position you finish below the club’s media prediction. If you match the club’s media prediction, there will be no points awarded and none deducted.

[Aoami]

which challenge were you in everz, i want to see if i can beat your score

 

[Cerb]

IIRC He was in the Nigeria one.

I was Egypt if you wanted to try to beat that.

 

[Everz]

Nigeria, got 153 points .

 

[Aoami]

egypt sounds more fun!

 

[Everz]

Nigeria is insanely competitive tbh, bout 10-11 teams can win the league.

Egypt is just Zamalek .

 

[Cerb]

Actually after playing a season there it is actually very much a 3 horse race between Al-ahy Ihsamaly and Zamalek.
And don't let zamalek having Amr Zaki and Mido fool you, Mido is shit!

 

[Aoami]

got bored after the first friendly, back to my villa save.

christian benitez is the best £2m i've spent on FM in a long time.

 

[Everz]

Lols, currently going through the Spanish league as U.D. Fuerteventura, visited their ground when I was on holiday there .

 

[Cerb]

My latest save is to see what would happen if Arse actually spent and spent where they need to. Bought Akinfeev, Gattuso and some 31y/o German centreback with monster mental stats and am top of the league after 6 games and unbeaten so far. infact its 5 wins and one draw.
