weeeman27bob Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 yeah I don't think it would be fair on everyone else if you gave us details from a previous save game Yeah thats fine. I'll probably start a new game and play for the points with a deduction ( which i reckon should be 30 points due to the huge amount of points from the challenge) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitehead.10 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I found that I started with 8 1st team players injuried, for the Community Sheild, and Tevez out due to suspension. 1st game of the season, still had 5 players out and Tevez was still banned. But good new is Ronaldo plays well upfront as my other strikers we're Injuried and he scored what Commentators said, was a spectacular goal, and would be difficult to better for the rest of the season. So could have a goal of the year already But i'm not counting my chickens Bad News nobody good wants to come to United - unsure why. So this could be a difficult season.

whitehead.10 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Huntelaar is affordable for £10mil if you buy him at the very start of teh game or he becomes unsettled. Aguero for £31mil though, where did that come from? Should be finished by friday night, would be done tonight but have to go to a meeting in newcastle too much driving for a 90minute meeting Am Top Of The League ATM, and if we keep it going like this we could be on to a winner. and a leap up from 7th place.

haza555 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I'm also bemused in the way you have managed to swpend 41.5 million without any income, maybe a post of the game status screen to see if he's on the right database? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehead.10 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I know i've reworked my budget, to gain some extra funds. and you haven't let anybody with a huge wage go :confused: so you can't have converted the cash.

Charlesbeams Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 doing the Man U challenge now, signing players is annoying, and i thought i'd have a bigger transfer budget haha, i did sign one player, but he cant get a work permit so he has to go on loan, bit of a waste really i did win the community shield though, 3-1 on penatlies haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeeman27bob Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I'm doing quite well in my Man Utd game. Twenty something games gone and top of the league. League cup and community shield are already in the bag. Still in both the Fa cup and the CL. I made one signing, and he has been the best player on the pitch most of the time. I have 1st and 3rd in premiership goal scorers so i'm looking good for a load of points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cletus Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Here's the transfers/finances-SS that explains the Aguero-transfer: Finances-transfer For the Huntelaar-transfer, I adjusted the budget myself and for the Aguero-transfer, the board suggested to adjust the budget so there were enough money for the transfer. Here's a SS of my finances: Finances-summary showing that I had a budget around £30M. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitehead.10 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 So you have used to forms of cheating in a 12 month game plan, for a start using payment plans that last over the gaming period shouldn't be done. and 2nd The payment due to goals is another off deal as I could have brought Drogba or somebody for 30million if they scored 50 games, knowing full well i wouldn't let them get all 50 in the season, therefore paying nothing for them. We dicussed all of this in the previous version of the game. Well done for making yourself £30mil though mate, and tbf if i had £30 mil those aren't the players i'd have gone for but to each there own. Up to Paul to sort this out now we have the facts on the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulHartman71 Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 My decision is that cletus can take a 50 percent point deduction if he wants, this will leave him with 53 points from the challenge (rounded up to make things easier) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that should only be the case if we think their transfers are out of order.

weeeman27bob Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Why is it only fair? Everyone else is only allowed one go. Most people don't even get one go! Not many of the people who say they are doing this challenge actually do it. Cletus made a mistake in breaking the rules, which he didn't remember/know about, so i think it's fair if instead of taking a deduction he is allowed to do the challenge again. Ultimately the decision is down to paul. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
