AdzH Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Ok, database created, am just going to see what it looks like in game and make sure ive made no errors Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB1 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I chose Liverpool for a couple of reasons 1- I'm a fan:) 2- Could learn from Reina, hopefully if not good training facilities 3- Will prob get loaned out - will not learn from reina but maybe clubs will want a young Kop star;) 4- Big clubs normally get noticed by England managers more, so fingers crossed:) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzH Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Doing a quick seasons test with the database to see how it looks. Have just had a look at Feb 1st and theres been some interesting developments. I'm not going to give to much away and i'm a bit gutted that i know as much as i so to be honest hehe.

Lower Leagues Rule Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Wow...this progressed hugely in the night while I was at friday work drinks, dinner, league and then home for bed. Looking excellent AdzH I cannot wait for it to start. As for why I picked Crewe, I wanted a team who was a bit lower down, about the middle, and Crewe just looked a good middle of the road club. As for Eccentricity, I picked it because clearly a goalkeeper needs to be mad. Who wants to be the duck in the shooting alley, you do? God you are mad, and sometimes this madness will lead to brilliance, lets see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzH Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Who wants to be the duck in the shooting alley, you do? Thank you, that made me laugh so spontaniously a spat beer all over my laptop! am still giggiling now. Good show. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to get this moving otherwise I wont be able to sleep for thinking about what I havent done or can adjust. Oh, and for the more practical reason I have a new project starting at work next week, so I really want to be at the stage where I can just auto pilot the game and report write (oh and talk to you guys of course!)

AdzH Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Truth is, I joined forums to have a snout about, found myself somehow in the CSE section and was just so amazed. I wanted to take part in everything but nothing was recruiting. I them spent the best part of maybe 12 hours going through other people's work and decided that the best way to introduce myself to the community was to run something of my own rather than being an extra in other peoples work. Since then well, i was expecting it to be alot more lowkey then its turned out but i'm happy for the interest. I like the community here, very friendly and supportive and i'm looknig foward ot contributing to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldkohmew Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Heads-up coldkohmew!Using as random a system as I could make up on the spot, I asked a work colleague to choose a number between 1 and 7 and then 1 and 24. In his infinite wisdom he chose 4. Twice. Which puts you in the 4th tier of english football at the club that finished 4th. Bury will be graced with the presence of Lengno Medhan. thanks!!!=))) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joetheref Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Wasn't online last night so I didn't get a chance to explain why I chose Chelmsford City: 1. They are my local team 2. IIRC they only have 2 GKs 3. They are 1 of the top teams in the BSS which means a nice trophy for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denther Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I chose Torquay because that's where I used to holiday as a young lad and so have always followed the team . Thought it would be a good place to get some first team action and then work my way up the footballing ladder. Adz, you've done really well as you have got everyone interested and excited, in some sign ups that just doesn't happen!! KUTGW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brambleten Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 So guys, how am I doing with my Debut? I think its ticking over pretty well, just hope the experience lives up the hype well, its a lot better than the two attempts i tried. both failed due to losing the bloomin database to crashes etc. looking forwards to seeing the first season results Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdzH Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 Well, I was so happy with my final test run last night that I am going to use it as the first seasons statistics. But, I will not be compiling a full season summary until tomorrow, so in the intrim, here is a few statistics to wet your appitites: 08/09 Season Start 9 subjects start as Key Players for their teams 9 subjects start as Back Up for their teams 1 subject started unattached (Control Subject) Starting subject value range of £2,960 to £510,300 Starting subject reputation range of 1300 to 5000 08/09 Season End (1/06/09) CA improvement range of 6 to 19 points A spattering of U19 and U21 caps 2 Transfers (1 being Control Subject signing for a club) Highest weekly wage of £800 per week Highest value of £1,425,350 Highest reputation of 6117 (Note, most of these stats have been dragged directly from GenieScout) Stay tuned for the full season analysis comming tomorrow! Now, I ask you for two things: 1. Opinions and comments. Is this what you expected from our subjects? 2. If you like this "taster" round-up I can do something like this a day or so before each full season summary as a warm-up and to provoke discussion before the full summaries. Eventually this could even lead to predictions of who got what when we get to know the subjects a bit better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookie15 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Great idea, good format for discussions, like what you're doing! TBH I didn't expect that many of the GK's to be Key players.

james-99 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 havn't been able to get online til now so ill explain me choice of Man Utd 1- I'm a fan 2- There are great training and youth facilities there, also can learn fromt the expierenced van der sar, and little from ben foster. Also vds is close to retirement so might get a chance in the team. 3- Hopefully get loaned out in the first season to pick up some first team games. 4- Big clubs normally get noticed by England managers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower Leagues Rule Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Hmmm being at a lower club, I would assume that I worked well, but nothing spectacular, value about middle of the range, and Crewe think I am a Key Player...fools I am crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denther Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I like the 'teaser' info Would have thought being at Torquay Fred will be a key player. I think the BSS/BSN lad will be the one who has moved Looking forward to the update Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
