Which country has the earliest startdate?

[polskaGOLA]

I want to play the whole month of June, so preferably something that starts in Early to Mid June.

This is because of two reasons: I want to play some friendlies before the new season and I want to do some edits to some clubs before the Regens appear. (earliest regens in June 7th, but I won't be editing those countries, soo Preferably before June 20th when the next whole batch of regens appear)

You know what, I am just going to load Kyrzgystan or something and change the start date.

But... How do I do that?

[Ohanzee]

Why not just start a new game and choose all leagues and look in the roll-down menu saying "Game Start Date"?

Quick test shows you can start January 2009 in Norway for instance.

[polskaGOLA]

But I don't want to start that early. I have a ton of Asian leagues who have the start date in November 2008 for example, but I don't want to be replaying last season. (Cause that could mean different Champions League Winner, different teams relegated/promoted etc.)

[Ohanzee]

So start a new game and select all leagues then? It takes 30 seconds, you don't have to actually start making the game, just check the list of start dates. Croatia for instance is May 2009, Austria is June 2009.

[polskaGOLA]

I have some packs that extend various leagues, including Croatia, to include lower divisions. These may have changed the start date as Croatia is June in my game.

The problem is that I can't be arsed to check every single league's start date within June, and the "Game Start Date" Only says the month, not day.

If anyone knows how to edit the start date that'd be great! I am currently fiddling with Kryzgstan to make it start in may, but I get error after error.

[polskaGOLA]

The editor makes things easy, Maybe I will do this.

Of coarse I have completely screwed up the Kyrzygstani league.

My understanding is, you dont replay the last season, teams just dont play any games for 6 months until their "proper" season starts
At least this is how it used to be, don't believe it has changed
On the opposite level, alot of the leagues that have these type of start dates are also able to have to have their following season selectable to start from (so you can choose November 2009 instead for example), this causes all leagues that have already started to be simulated up to that point

[RBKalle]

Scandinavian leagues all start in late-winter/early spring

[StrachanStoats]

Poland, IIRC starts around 23rd June. I'd like to know if there are countries starting a few days earlier

[Dan BHTFC]

Scotland starts in June, as does Wales

[scalascione]

MLS in America starts in March of 2009.

[Vic Taylor]

MLS in America starts in March of 2009.

I thought it started in January...

[polskaGOLA]

Does anyone know the exact dates? (IE: 3rd of June)

That would be great.

I am looking something in the range of May 25 - June 20

This date is exact, and just 3 days outside of your desired time frame. I'd suggest going with this.
