PaulHartman71 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 It doesn't matter where you put the file does it? I thought you just put the downloaded file somewhere then put it on auto run or something and it just automatically updated FM, that's what it did on mine.

Tomiscool Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 The gameplay and everything changes. I had to just download 8.0.2 a second ago.. Is it cheating to buy players by offering the club £40 million after 50 league games..knowing full fell that it wont matter because the game will stop after a season?

spartans5 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I will start this as soon as I get the next month done in Africa. And I think manager reputation will decide whether the board is lenient if you aren't fulfilling expectations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehead Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 to be fair I think with one season i think a week is too long, I think if you have it as 5 days then you have 2 days to sort out tables and that before the next challeneg is set what do you think?

Whitehead Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 well if it was set on a friday night, then you would have at least one full day over the weekend otherwise you work to hard lol and then have it done by wednesday or thursday even just to give Paul an easier time. one day difference sint to much? but its up to paul what goes on.

spartans5 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I understand what you are saying but I know that I have the African Striking Competition to do as well, and Paul as the South American one, so we would need a little extra time, so I think a week is perfect.

weeeman27bob Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 i'm against the 50 game thing. for two reasons 1. it's not about trying to sign the best players, it's about trying to do the best you can with the team and a few signings. IRL, you wouldn't get top noth players like torres,drogba and ronaldo signing for bolton. I think it makes the game more enjoyable trying to play sensibly 2. i've already started and i don't want to play 3 months all over again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartans5 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I think if you are going to make a transfer, any transfers made should be, if not completely paid off but mostly paid off by the time the season ends, unless you use sell-on clauses Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulHartman71 Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah, there are lots of reasons for banning the 50 game thing, but if people want to use it they can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitehead Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I think its should be banned all together. and if any transfers look suspect you can ask for screen shots of the details. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazTheDoood Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Whitehead i only used it for naka (obv) young and elmander I hope you use only as a joke. Those three players are just not in Bolton's real price range. That 50 game thing is a complete exploit, and therefore shouldn't be allowed. My two cents.

Whitehead Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 alive and kicking!! I thin paul needs to set strict rules to stop people exploiting the 50 game rule. And the like or even make it 2 seasons to see how they fare being bankrupt lol. I stil would like to no if cups will efect our points at the end as otherwise there is no point in my playing a propa side in europe or fa/league cups. The best way to make money is sell diouf even if he is your best player lol I could have exploited newcastle when they bid for him but at times the AI are riduculus and though it might be seen as cheating. Got some good players in though, took a while but its seems I could be a top four finisher. and even could win europe and my new striker only likes to score aboard lol I think this thread could become a huge success, maybe after a set amount increase the amount of players and have a league 1 and league 2 to add more competition for the lower managers. I am unsure how points will be awarded for this but points should be docked for using the 50 game payment system. All you want to happen is them to play 50 games now lol.

PaulHartman71 Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Sorry for the not responding for so long, my computer is been effected with spyware or some ****, and the only way I can now use the internet is through firefox, which is fine but my email is ****ed so I'm getting it sorted by a proffesional soon. 1. From now on the 50 game thing is banned, because it is cheating tbh, and it's causing a lot of hassle so I don't think it should be allowed. 2. No bonuses will be issued for cups, as I don't see it neccasary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitehead Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Kk I was just wondering as we are all entered into Europe was wandering if there was anypoint playing the games tbf lol just play the youth in the cup matches then to see if they can perform if anyone gets injuried.

Whitehead Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I dont see why you would need to, it will only slow down game play. No real advantages from it - I don't see why not. But i don't see why you would want to. Unless you wish to carry on the game afterwards which i don't see why you would. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
