Guest roberto922 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Why would the club could get compensation for a manager being sacked? Surely it would be the other way round? Other than that small detail it sounds like a good idea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest roberto922 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Now that the patch is out I'm gonna start taking names for the Survivor Edition, ability doesn't really matter (except for very basic maths skills ) but I only want regular posters that co-operate with each other without it turning into an argument, I also don't want anyone with a history of hit 'n' run in the sign up. 12 places are available so I'll put the list up here: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PluckaDuck Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I'm currently editing my database for a new AI experiment I am preparing to run. I will release full details at a later date, but what I need now, is a list of the best managers in the World of Football. I need 12 and have currently got 2 who I am certain should be on the list. It's essential that I get the best managers so the experiment will be most effective. Any help would be massively appreciated. So far I have 2 certainties, who are as follows... 1. Sir Alex Ferguson 2. Jose Mourinho 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Some others i am thinking of are, Marcelo Lippi, David Moyes, Rafa Benitez, Arsene Wenger, Ottmar Hitzfeld, Dario Gradi, Fabio Capello, Gordon Strachan, Martin O'Neill, Slaven Bilic, Graeme Souness, Harry Redknapp, Manuel José (Egypt's Al-Ahly manager), Maurizio Trombetta, Louis van Gaal, Giovanni Trapattoni, Carlo Ancellotti, Sven Goran Errikson, Dunga, Luiz Felipe Scolari, Zico and Mark Hughes. Most of those were taken from A list on the Football Forum, So don't go crazy at me if there are some White Elephants are there. I am quite keen to add one or two manages who are a little lesser known as it would give people a chance to realise there are great managers that are managing outside of Europe. Someone like Manuel Jose or Aurelio Vidmar fit the bill perfectly. So guy's just add to that list and hopefully I'll have 12 of the best managers in the World within a couple of days, So the AI experiment can begin!

SCIAG Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I have an idea for an AI Experiment, and I need a volunteer to help run it. The job will at first be time consuming but then easy. Initially, you'll need to put in two hours or so, and then it will flow. The Experiment will be based around a simple question: if the money poured out of Europe and into South America, what would happen? The obvious answer is that the European leagues would become feeders for Brazil etc., but in reality, there aren't as many players in England as in Brazil, and youth facilities are worse (in game), so it could be very interesting. PM me if you want to volunteer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Oh, and I'm not just being lazy, it's just that my PC isn't going to run a save of that size easily on 09, so I'm running it on 07 and I need somebody else to do an 09 save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgeeD Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Here's an idea that came about after one of my wingers scored an absolute peach of a goal: The CSE Goal Of The Week/Month Now that we have our games in glorious 3D, I wondered if something like this would be possible/workable. Users could submit PKMs or video clips of goals for consideration. The winners could be chosen either by panel or vote. There are a couple of problems I forsee so any ideas on working around them would be appreciated: - How to 'record' the goals. Videos of the monitor would be too low quality so are there any other ways to get videos of them? Or would looking at PKMs be the only option? - How to vet the submissions. If the idea takes off, the thread could end up being swamped with nominations. My main idea around that atm is to have a window for submitting goals (say a few hours on a Sunday). What do you think?

DodgeeD Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Great idea Loked puts good looking videos in his sign up thread, maybe he could help you out? Cool. I'll PM him about it later. Some further ideas I had while mulling it over today (while waiting around shopping centres holding the bags and coats during last minute Christmas shopping....): - in order to put some standard limit on the submissions, perhaps we could say the goal must have earned a goal of the week/month/season award in the game. I was also thinking of 1 submission per user per week. - depending on the format of the videos, I could make a top three mix and post it on a purpose made YouTube/MySpace channel with links to each set of winners in the OP. - the ultimate aim would then be to have a forum-wide vote before the FM10 release for the best goal of all from FM09 (could be part of the CSE awards or could be done seperately).

Guest mikeytwigge Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Create a club world champion My idea for a sign up is a create a club idea (originally thought upby ridleys who I have asked permission to make this and he agreed thanks) in Soulth America where the ultimate goal would be for your club to win the club world championship. There would be 4 created clubs in each of the following leagues argenbtina brasil columbia chille and uruguay starting in the second division of each of these leagues. I would then follow the clubs progress up the leagues and into the copa litabores(sp?) and eventually to the club world championship.
