Sign up - Managers challenge.

OFFICIALLY OPEN

Okay, after being frustrated for three weeks without finding a challenge, I've decided running one of my own would be the only way (I'm a player in this btw, scream unfair for all you care . In all seriousness, you can trust me not to cheat).

NO LIMITS ON THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO CAN SIGN UP.

I'll be adding as many entries I get to the database (won't take long since you'll tell me all the attributes). Will be more fun to do with a lot of signups with one of you knocking the other out etc.!

The game -

It can be a race to the first major trophy. (FA Cup, League cup, EPL, Champions league)

Or a time limit with points for each trophy. (FA = 3, League cup = 2, EPL = 6, CL = 8)

You have 1500 points. (I can increase it if it's popular demand)

So to increase your PA by 1 point, you need to spend 3 of your points.

(Therefore, 200 PA will cost you 200*3 = 600 points. Since this is a race, you might not need 200 PA at all, most managers that win trophies in the game don't)

To increase your CA by 1 point, you need to spend 4 of your points.

(So, starting with a high CA is a no-no, you can allot points to other tactical and non-tactical attributes, but without a CA, I don't think they'll stay up high for very long. So careful while choosing!)

Again, the balance is important.

Current Reputation (out of 200) - Each point = 3 points from your bag.

Home and world reputation are set to your current reputation.

(You might need a high value for this, so you get hired quickly)

COACHING ATTRIBUTES - +1 = 1 point.

(Attacking, defending, fitness, GK, Mental, Tactical, Technical)

NON TACTICAL +1 = 2 points.

(Buying players, hardness of training, Judging Player Ability, Judging Player Potential, Level of discipline, Man management, Mind games, Motivating, Squad rotation, Working with youngsters)

TACTICAL - +1 = 4 points.

(Attacking, depth, directness, dirtiness allowance, Flamboyancy, Flexibility, Free roles, marking, Offside, Pressing, Sitting back, Tactical knowledge, Tempo, Use of playmaker, Use of Substitutions, Width)

Give him both player and manager data, and give him a high managerial PA.

My test player. Lets see how this goes.

Give him both player and manager data, and give him a high managerial PA.

Can I do this? I wanted to create a Player/Assman type, but couldn't..

On the first page of the create a player screen, make his person type player/non-player. Then, on the non-player data, give him a high PA.

Got it. Now then, lets see... Am I correct in assuming that even if you get recruited as a coach first, it is possible for you to get hired as a manager later by another club?

Yeah, I think so.

Also, you can not leave any stat 0 as they will be randomized. You have to at least give each of your stats 1 or there is no point in making a 1500 point system to allocate.

I've just had a test run, the tactical and non-tactical attributes aren't increasing. The only ones that change are the coaching stats and mental stats that we can actually see. So you should probably start with low attribs in coaching and high in the hidden ones.

Can you please re-post in the proper format?

Also, you can not leave any stat 0 as they will be randomized. You have to at least give each of your stats 1 or there is no point in making a 1500 point system to allocate.

if u set it on 0 the stats are randomized

Thanks, will set them to 1.

My post was meant to Blanco & m1234566778 mate. They have allocated their points, leaving their stats 0. This will surely create an inequality since they'll get randomised stats all over. So every applier need to post in a format such that they have 1 to each stat at least.

Im confused now

kashmirshazad, your post is fine like that. You have given at least "1" to each of your stats.

is there any more places for me to post mine

Sure, keep posting!

Ok sergio, thanks for clarification. Cant wait for ths one to start

Okay, I'm getting a bit bored waiting now. I'm starting the game. What interval would you like the updates to be in? Every 1 season or half season? I'm thinking each update with Players bought, sold, individual accolades, clubs changed. Anything else?

still open?

half season updates should suffice?...

@coldkohmew - Yeah, go on and post, I'll edit it using the FM RTE. Sorry about not posting guys, had a test this monday. Will post it every half season then.

Whats the latest on this then mate

Hi, is the CA 3 or 4?? in your instructions you have it as 4 times but in the template you have it as 3 times?

I'm sorry, I just got really busy for a while and was out of the loop. I'll be posting the first update tomorrow morning (Roughly 12 hours from now, for me).

Edit: I've been trying for a long time now, can anyone tell me what's wrong? I edited the db, saved it, if I load it up in the editor, it works fine. If I load it up in the game, none of the added players show up. Any hints?
