peter-evo Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Welcome to the second SI community challenge, the 'Special One' Challenge. The idea of this challenge is to bring the CSE, GPTG & GD forums together, & help build up a sense of community across these boards. This is a short challenge, & should only last a season or two. The Aim Emulate José Mourinho's sucess at F.C. Porto by winning both the Portuguese Liga Vitalis & the Champions league trophy in one season. The Rules You must have the Portuguese Liga Sagres (Portuguesue top-flight) loaded when starting a new game. Database size is optional, but I'd recommend using the small one for faster loading times. Your manager's starting experience must be set to automatic You must post screenshots of your acheivement before the points can be added You have to post a screenshot of your manager's profile screen as soon as you add your manager. Could you post the url of pictures rather than actual picture please. Points system 150 - Win the Champions League. 140 - Be unbeaten in all home league matches throughout the season. 120 - Champions League runners-up. 100 - Win the Portuguese league. 90 - Champions League semi-finalists. 65 - Win the UEFA Cup. 60 - Win the Portuguese Cup. 60 - Champions League quarter-finalists. 60 - Runners-up In the Portuguese League. 45 - Knocked out in first knockout round of the Champions League. 35 - Finish 3rd in the Portuguese League. 30 - Win the Portuguese League Cup. 30 - One of your players wins European Golden Boot. 25 - One of your players wins Champions League Player of the Tournament. 20 - One of your players is the top scorer in the Portuguese Premier League. 20 - One of your players wins European Goalkeeper/Defender/Midfielder/Striker of the year. 20 - Super Cup winners 15 - Four or more of your players are named in the European Team of the season. 15 - Score 80 or more goals in the league. 15 - Keep 20 or more clean sheets in the League. 5 - Beat F.C. Benfica/Sporting Lisbon both home & away in the league. I will edit you into the league table as soon as you finish your season Most of the credit for this post must go to Ahmufcwafc. I just came up with the idea. Also, thanks to Dafuge for letting me take this on. League table: etlsenza: 595 Jack.browne: 580 Geoff Newman: 575 robz2007: 560 (Decided against buying players, that doesn't make him better ) midgetram: 550 Diegas: 550 Dexta200: 540 nelsonmcjones: 450 Peter OLE: 445 Terra21: 500 markypoos77: 395 mr8kc: 350 pcmeister: 345 Leftback in the changing room: 325 Diegas: 295 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahmufcwafc Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Is it just 1 season or can you try again the following season? Can you have more than just the top Portuguese league loaded? Just one season as far as I know. You can load whatever leagues you want I'd assume. I'm sure it wouldn't make all that much of a difference. Just one season Gundo and yes you can.Who is Gundo? :confused: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went 1-0 down early on but dominated the match thereafter and it could have been 5 or 6 in the end. Fantastic start and nice to have some points on the board.

leftback in the changing room Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Silly question time: I'm a luddite patched only to version 9.1.0 - can I still take part or do I need 9.3.0 first? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbster Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Wouldn't think it'd make a difference, so use whatever patch you want Only difference I can think of would be that 9.3 has the most recent transfer window, and if everyone was starting on the same patch then we would all have the same squads to start with.
