spartans5 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 The Stig- Aviacion is a team in the second tier in Peru. Every player is at a second tier team as close to their birthplace as possible unless they were moved to another country or their country doesn't have a playable second tier.

rancer890 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 rancer890- As of yet I do not know exactly what that means we will have to find out as we go.

spartans5 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Share Posted July 19, 2008 As of now you are on the Canadian U20 team so if your lack of a contract inhibits your international career I will assign you to a team but as of right now we will just wait and see.

spartans5 Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 September Update Phil was the only player to play for his national team this month and in his two appearances a 2-0 win home against Armenia and a 1-1 draw away at Armenia, he had a goal in each but no Man of the Match awards received. Thus he currently leads the competition with 34 points. Injuries: - Paul Inifiri has a pulled hamstring that will keep him out for 2 weeks to a month - Procy has a pulled hamstring that will keep him out for 2 days to 2 weeks - Hugues Tyson has strained ankle ligaments that will keep him out for 2 days to a week - Jorge Rombos has a bruised thigh that will keep him out for 4 days to a week - Kevin Manuachu has a groin strain that will keep him out for 2 to 4 weeks Other - Tomaldinho is currently learning from Maximiliano Castano The table will make its debut in the next update as more people should have made their international debuts in October.

spartans5 Posted July 21, 2008 Author Share Posted July 21, 2008 October 2007 This month saw the debuts for 7 players and the introduction of the tables. October Individual Competition October World Competition This month's top performer goes to The World Contest Man because he only played one game and scored two goals, however Browser Two comes a close second because in three games this month he didn't score a single goal yet gained to MoM awards. Tunisia qualified for the African Cup of Nations and Adam Griffiths received 15 team points for the win. There are no injuries to report this month Other News: - Hugues Tyson is learning from Claudio Videla November will be the next update then none until after the transfer window. And here is the scoring b/c I don't think I posted it in this thread Credit to Walcott's Wonderkids for scoring Individual: Int Appearance = 5 Int Goal = 10 Int MoM Award = 5 Int Yellow Card = -3 Int Red Card = -8 (2 yellows --> 1 red = -8) Team: Win = 3 Draw = 1 Qualification for major tournament= 15 Bonus: 25 points will be awarded if player finishes top scorer in major tournaments 50 points for setting nation's goalscoring record 100 points to first to reach 100 Caps 100 points to first to reach 50 goals 50 points for reaching 100 Caps (after first) 50 points for reaching 50 goals (after first) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartans5 Posted July 21, 2008 Author Share Posted July 21, 2008 November 2008 November Individual Competition November World Competition The player of the month this time around is El loco as he was the hat-trick hero in both of Papua New Guinea's matches this month although Paul Inifiri bagged four on his debut for the Solomon Islands. It looks like the OFC is running away with this year's World Competition which was expected, by me at least, as the standard of competition is lower. Injuries: - Browser Two is out for 1 to 2 months with a hip injury - Brendan Peterson is day to day with a groin strain - Tomaldinho is out for 1 to 2 months with a slipped disk - fmfan08 is out for 2 days to a week with a calf strain Next update will be after the January transfer period Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
