Chimpos Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Thanks to everyone who signed up in the sign up thread, http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=115139. To recap, the aim is to start with the 20 strikers all aged 16, and slowly whittle them down, one a year until we have our winner. It will be up to everybody to vote once each game year to see who is 'evicted'. The player will not be removed from the game, just will receive no updates. Anybody can vote, not just those in the game although only one vote per person for each year. Votes can not be changed, and it would be good to include a reason (if there is one) just to create some banter. A tie in voting means I have the decision on who will be evicted. You can vote in the thread or pm'ing me, although I suggest in the thread, to create an atmosphere. There will be a period of two days in which to register your vote. I will say when voting begins and ends with a post. There will be a few twists and turns, one being, Chimpy Chimpos, who is a manager from Brazil, I shall be using to help keep tabs on players through the shortcuts. I will holiday with him, and apply for all jobs at a higher reputation, taking each job as it comes up. If a player is playing for me (very unlikely), at the end of a game year, he will be exempt from voting. There will be no bias, he'll be holidaying all the time, leaveing his assistant to being him glory! I shall include a screenshot at the end of the year of each striker, but shall also provide updates throughout the game year. Please bear with me as this is my first signup, and first time with the editing of these (html?) forums. Please let me know if you see a mistake and I'll correct it. So good luck and thanks for reading. First update will be soon, as I'm just about to click 'Go on holiday'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimpos Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Well half a season gone, and our young strikers are just finding their way in the world. Michael Payne Nothing too exciting for the ‘new Michael Owen’ apart from being injury free unlike the ‘old Michael Owen’. 26 non competitive games, av rating 7.04. Fred Brookes Nothing too either from Brookes apart from confusing poor old Sam Allardyce, who called a press conference saying ‘Brookes can learn from Brookes’! Tyler Burrows Joint highest valued player at £5.75 million, although only one sub appearance in a cup. Did stub his toe and bruise his head, although not at the same time. Now broken his leg, d’oh. Oh and 3 caps for Andorra, no goals. Martien Oak One cup game for Chelsea so far, but how long will he stay at a club, as Gus Hiddink has decided to let Nicholas Anelka tutor him! Ricky Nakano 18 non competitive games, 7 goals, has been capped at U19 level, maybe going to choose them over Canada. Likes Tim Howard. Saul Goode One sub appearance, not much else. The young Welsh lad strained his groin, don’t know how many sheep there are in Fulham, so might be football related Liam Ferguson One game, one sub appearance, rating of 6.10. Could have a fight on his hand to be the real ‘new Michael Owen’ with Michael Payne, in the lead as he has had a thigh strain. Hermano Brother One sub league appearance for Liverpool, one cup game, no goals yet, then again he is learning from Dirk Kuyt. Capped at U19 for Spain. Pablo Gonzlez Waiting for his chance with Spain before choosing to play for Mexico, must be drinking San Miguel and Tequila whilst waiting with only a handful of 18 games. Thomas Weir One U21 cap, and one sub appearance for Man U in the league and Europe. Honoured to be at the same club as Rio Ferdinand. Owen Meek A good choice playing for Boro with their policy of playing young England players, played 9, 3 sub appearances, 4 goals. 3 cup games, one goal with an average rating of 7.17. Currently learning from Alfonso Alves in how not to look Brazilian. Robert Blowcrapup The best named player isn’t having the best start to his career. 15 U18 games with an average rating of 6.63. Similar type of player to Obafemi Martins, which might not be a good thing if you play alongside Obefemi Martins. Arthur White Not much to say here, apart from he thinks Crouch is a talented dancer, errr player. Mr Bojangles 20 games for Stoke U18s, 11 goals, 7 assist, 6 MoMs, yet somehow he is by far the least valued player at £60,000. Maybe someone could snap him up, then again he does think Dave Kitson is a talented player. Jack Browne Toiling away learning his trade, 10 non competitive games, 9 goals. 4 international caps for San Marino, with one goal, scoring a penalty against Petr Cech playing for the Czech Republic, his goal scoring bonus was paid by cheque. Bad joke. Check. Hermano Brother One cup game played, one sub appearance in the league and Europe, no goals as yet. Currently learning from Dirk Kuyt, so I guess he has nice hair. Loic Philppens This wonderkid burst into the first team with West Brom, his 4 goals and 1 assist in 16 league games helping them to 14th in the league. 4 games and 2 goals in the cup, helping them into the 5th round of the FA Cup. Played for Belgium against Luxemburg on his debut scoring twice. Surely Ishmael Miller should be learning from his rather than the other way round. Cristobal Blanco Only the one league game, but one goal in one cup game against QPR from the spot. Could be choosing England over Peru with his U19 cap. Josic Spoljaric Not much either for Josic, a handful of U19 games, and a fairly poor average. Currently learning from Hugo Rodallega, perhaps learning who Hugo Rodallrga is. Bob McBob Two league games, one goal against Middlesborough. Learning from Abebayor. Holds the record for the youngest ever Premiership player. I'm just waiting for someone to headbutt Ronaldo and get sent off, I think he'd be safe for a few seasons! Half a season to make friends and influence people before our grand vote.

Chimpos Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 how come Haowan Madridstas wasn't mentioned? My bad sorry, [bHaowan Madridstas[/b] 15 games, 11 goals for the U18s. Worth £3.5M, and in the U19 for the Spain squad. Not much else, although with a few Tottenham strikers being chased by other clubs, maybe you could be in the first team before you know it. Chimpos did I play any non competitive? Also are you putting up screen shots of our players? No worries if not just wondered Screenshots of each player should come at the end of the season, although I've not done it before, but shouldn't be too hard right ... Non competative games. 16 apps (2 as sub) 5 goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_lampard Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Good start mate glad to see my player enjoying playing (and maybe dancing) with Crouchy Can i suggest that people do PM you the votes as that will keep it more secret, building the suspense otherwise everyone would know who has gone out before you announce it.

I knew picking Chelsea would make things difficult.....but let's see how his career will flourish under the wings of Nicholas Anelka!

Chimpos Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Guys, sorry about the lack of update, should be smoother going forward! Well the season has ended and the first vote has begun. Bob McBob A good season for McBob, 35 non competitive appearances and 21 goals in non competitive and one goal in two league appearances set McBob. Made a breakthrough for France gaining an U21 cap. Michael Payne Yet to break into the first team and still with the U18s. Still not living up to his ‘new Michael Owen tag as he has been injury free all season. Fred Brookes Again not able to make it into the first team and still with the U18s, but these strikers are sure to flourish. Gained a little from Benni McCarthy although of what we don’t know. Tyler Burrows Made one appearance in the cup for Bolton, but his international career has started for Andorra, playing four games, but no goals yet. Was hampered by a broken leg in mid-November, but seems to have recovered. Martien Oak One league and one cup appearance, and a sub appearance in Europe, in the semi finals of the Champions league. Martien Oak is the one of the only players to be in the first team squad of all our signups, and that’s not bad as he plays for Chelsea. 4 U21 caps for Holland. Ricky Nakano Plugging away in the Everton U18s, although for how long as he is valued at £5,5 M, could look to profit from Jo’s loan ending. Saul Goode Playing for the U18s at Fulham, although made a very brief first team appearance, but not on long enough to get a rating. At 6’2 at 13.3lb could be a literal ‘powerhouse’ in the future. Liam Ferguson . One appearance and one sub appearance in the league was not good enough to save Hull from relegation. Still it could be a blessing for his career as he might be promoted from U18s. Leading his personal battle with Michael Payne to be the ‘new Michael Owen’ with four injuries in a season. Hermano Brother Moved up to the reserves, although that is rather a large reserve squad of Liverpools. One cup game and a sub appearance in the league and cup. Pablo Gonzlez Playing for Man City U18s, but a non-competitive av. rating of 7.02 is not bad for a debut season. Still waiting for Spain to offer him some International action over Mexico. Thomas Weir Has moved up to the reserves of Man U, after an impressive 18 goals in 31 non competitive games. Only a brief flirtation with the full team so far. No Federico Macheda impact unfortunately. Owen Meek Unable to make the most of breaking into the ‘Boro first team, 14 appearences, 4 as sub has produced 4 goals, now a reserve regular, although a good pre season may change that. 4 U21 England caps is very positive. Robert Blowcrapup In the Newcastle reserves but a disappointing 5 goals from 18 appearences in non competitive games is not great for Blowcrapup. Still only 17, he’s still learning. Arthur White Still with the Portsmouth U18s, but 14 goals in 25 games is a good strike rate at any level. A rating of 7.22 for the last five games, lets hope he can take that form forward into the new season. Mr Bojangles 25 games and 5 sub non competitive appearances for Stoke, 14 goals, 9 assists, 7 MoMs only 4 yellow cars and a rating of 7.22, yet somehow he’s still with the U18s and worth by far the lowest at £12k. A good scout could pick up a bargain here. Jack Browne Three month long injuries have hampered Brownes career so far. An amazing 12 goals in 13 non competitive games and an international goal in the 6(2) games for San Marino. 6’4 and 14st a real nightmare for defenders. Haowan Madridstas Moved up to the reserves after a cracking 18 goals in 23 non competitive games with a rating of 7.51. Can’t be long before pushing for a first team place. I think everyone shares his happiness that Kiko Fernenia is the new Spanish U20’s captain, we had a street party about that! Loic Philppens A real West Brom regular helping guide them to 15th and safety with 9 goals in 28 league games and finishing as West Broms top goalscorer, highest rating and most MoMs. His 35 second goal is also the fastest they have scored. An amazing debut season was also made better by 6 goals in 6 games for Belgium. Cristobal Blanco Made one league game for West Ham, but also one good cup game, with a goal and a rating of 7.80. Still with the U18s, but surely not for long (not just because he’ll be over 18). Blanco will want more appearances next season. Josic Spoljaric Made it to the reserves, but a very poor season. 21 non competitive games, 4 goals and an average rating of 6.50 wasn’t too good. 3 U21 caps for Croatia is a highlight, though, maybe a late starting. Maybe never fully recovered mentally from stubbing his toe at the end of September! Screenshots of players I’m quite lazy and while there are many people to show a screenie of I have placed the link to the album in photobucket. There is also a screenie of the final Premiership standings of the season! http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c316/Phillew/FMSS/?start=0 Voting Voting is now open, please PM (by popular request) me your vote.
