Best way is to do a search for it in the correct forum and then when its not found there use the Archive button to get the old stuff

Goebels

Do a google search of the German War crimes trials (Nurenburg?) and there were at least some big names there.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

I've had a pretty epic idea guys. It will obviously take an enormous amount of work, as much by me as the rest of the CSE community but here it is anyway:

The idea would be to start a thread offering any CSE challenge participant to upload their save game of their most successful team (ie. teams that have completed challenges, like dafuge's challenge etc).

From these saved files (limited to say 20 teams) I would then go into the editor and create my own database - mimicking every player, staff, club info, stats, everything from their team and copy it over to the new database. By the end of what I imagine would be a hell of a lot of editing, I'd have one almighty database containing 20 of the most successful CSE teams. I would then put them into one division on the game (like the Dutch as an eg).

Then I would simulate the seasons to see how these teams fared against each other. I'm unsure what the best thing would be to do for managers - perhaps give each user an opportunity to create their own manager for their side? The other idea I have is depending on time and availability of users I would run it as a sign up whereby each game week, the users in the CSE community would PM me with their tactics, selection and substitution plans etc. I'd then run the game and report the results for a whole season.

What does everyone think? Do you even think its possible??

I love it...I need my Fafe game back so they can destroy Savona and show you once and for all that Portugal is better than Italy

What about if I go up by 3% in my knowledge of Antigua? Someone might banter me for that

Way to go Hereford Way to go!

Well I am just heading out for the night for New Years, but I will do it as soon as I wake up

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

I am using the Rep straight out of the Editor so I would assume it would be their sources that are unreliable

Maybe bring it up in the Data Errors section haha.

And after realising I had too many clubs in the BSS & BSN I have made a readjustment. It turns out both clubs you mention have identical Rep in the list, and are both now in the same league, Fort William being the worst ranked of those in the three lowest divisions I had done.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Yeah its completely ranked by Rep. so long as Scotland has more than 2 clubs, Wales more than 1, and N. Ireland more than 1.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Thanks Corinthiano

And Cardio I will try to explain how I sorted the clubs. I started by working out the % of the population in each of the 4 areas, and then multiplied it by 20 (rough number of clubs in each league), this showed that Wales should have 1 team, NI 1 team & Scotland 2 teams, so I made this the minimum number of clubs for each of them. England would dominate so no minimum for them.

I then sorted the entire list by Reputation and started down from the top leaving the 4 spaces open at the bottom for Scotland, NI & Wales. If one of their teams was at the level they took the spot. If there was more teams than the minimum that was great, but if they didn't have a team when the league was finished I found the next highest rep club for that nation and they moved up a league or so.

And thats how the list was compiled from top to bottom. Just working through level 9 now. 14 Leagues with 280 Clubs. And then it is actually putting this info into the database.

The astericks are just my check to make sure every division had a team from N. Ireland and Wales. Hope you like the looks of them. I sorted completely by Reputation and also eg. Leeds was not allowed above their current level. From there I just worked down the list making sure every division had 2 Scottish Teams, 1 Northern Irish Team & 1 Welsh Team (This was based on population figures from last census) And hence here is what we have.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

I do have it, but only a trial, probably best as a 2003 spreadsheet.

Umm best option is probably to send it to the email I have PM'd you

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Well looks like it is unlikely to result in Qualification with our 4th Round Qualifying opponent being Inter Milan...But I will play those two games then head into the editing room.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Thats a good call Minisav...

Currently Distracted from my Editing as AD Fafe are attempting to Qualify for the Euro Cup. After finishing 8th in the Portuguese Liga Sagres in 2016/17, we hadn't qualified til the Sporting Play Draw came up with Portugal in the selection and as the four teams with less cards had qualified we were in, I have managed to win the first three qualifying stages, so only one left. After I complete that I should be back to editing.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Thats cool if you can do that, can you sort them by Reputation first, just wanna be able to see all the clubs really, and have the list seperate to the editor. Thanks

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Its probably fine no matter how long it takes, it has taken me about 3-4 hours to edit only the UK Clubs into the correct Country, think about from there how much more there is to do.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

All the clubs if you possibly can please, and yeah on the game it doesn't show them all when you are not playing there, even when you are I am sure some are missing.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Well Pluck compiling a list of all the USSR teams and their respective Reputations could help, otherwise you could check out some of the smaller nations and report back to me on which ones seem to have enough clubs to fill a league, probably 2 level leagues so need 50+ clubs or there abouts.

Research List that needs doing if anyone can help

1. USSR - A full list of clubs from Russia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan & Tajikistan. (Thanks Pluckaduck)

2. Catalonia/Basque - A full list of clubs with reputation, giving an idea of what size league they can fill.

3. Czechoslovakia - Club list with Reputations. Slovakia & Czech Rep.

4. Yugoslavia - Club List, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro & Slovenia.

5. Provincal Splits - Research of any parts of nations that want to seperate and how many clubs they would have, whether they can fill their own league or would be part of another.

6. China - Would a provincial Split of China be possible?

7. East/West Germany - Split it out (Thanks a heap Corinthiano)

I think those are the major research projects I need right now. Hopefully by this time 2moro I have moved around all the major nations and have a database test running to tell me that it is working how I intend it too. (This test will have nations labelled "Nation 1" etc as I don't know all the spots yet.)

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

I think for some of the smaller provinces that I create as nations I will just give them a couple of clubs and let them build their own players through Regens etc.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Haha well I have got to the point of having all the UK Clubs moved into one nationality, that was a bloody massive mission haha. Next up is moving the Italian clubs into the old Scotland now called Italy. Then I can move the USSR Clubs into the old Italy now called USSR.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

haha Robert set you up, hopefully he gets Morgan and Jones

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Haha Rancer, you would say that. Its ok, the Database I am building is going to be massive, and mainly a base for a small club to big club challenge.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Thanks dude, it will make it an awesome set-up, now I think I should get back into the database so I can get it closer to completed.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

That was my thought on it Spartans, as for the others some of them will not have leagues at all, but just creating the nations so there are no gaps in the database basically. The aim being to have all the European and Asian nations filled even if it is with a province 'breaking away' and their teams continue to play in the main leagues. For example say I take Transylvania out, they would become their own nation with players, but continue to play in Romania, or Vatican City as a nation in the game could be fun, but they would have a club team in the Italian league.

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

Some ideas from around the place.

- Sicily

- Corsica

- Greenland

- Gozo

- Gibraltar

- Northern Cyprus

- Vatican City? (clutching at straws now)

- North/South Vietnam,

- Tibet,

- Kurdistan,

- West Bank,

- Gaza,

- West Papua

- Catalonia

- Translyvania

[Challenges / Sign-Ups / Holiday Games ideas thread.]

That was another one I thought of. Someone in the editors forum has also suggested to me some of the smaller countries in Europe and giving them their own leagues and nation set-up. I am getting plenty of ideaws, I jsut know its a huge mission, so aim is before the end of January to ahve built the database and have run 5 or so trial games to make sure it works in all the necessary places.

Transylvania also wanna split from Romania so that could be fun
