I used to run “friendly” tournaments back in the SoccerSim days. Pretty simple. I make fixtures, you arrange them, play them, and the tournament advances. I make more fixtures etc, until a champion is crowned! Pretty much just for fun, but bragging rights are always sweet, and it adds some depth to your friendlies!

Post in this thread if you’re interested, or if you think it’s a good idea, and if enough people are interested I’ll start up an official tournament thread with a link to the Tourney website (where fixtures, groups, results, top scorers etc will be posted and updated)

I’ve always liked this idea, and we were even thinking of implementing it within RubySoccer. Gabriel was never so sure that it is a nice thing to have :). If we see a lot of people doing it “unofficially”, who knows, we might end up implementing it in the game!

Count me in :D

ok for me

Back in soccersim day’s it was a youth tournament right? I’m interested if that might be the case :)

i’m in

Danilo/Gabriel,

Isn’t it possible to ‘copy & paste’ the CL/EL code and make a friendly tournament where people can sign in? Don’t know if that is an easy option :)

I think it was a youth tournament in SS days yeah, but I don’t really want to go through dozens of results every tick to make sure everyone is <21. 8 people so far…might just get it started and see if it grows over the years! I’ll be back with details.

Dont see the need to have Gabriel or Danilo “wasting” time with this. We can easily organise friendly matches and Will seems available to structure the tournnement. Dont know about the younger too, its not easy to do that and besides all, the teams playinh many competitions will eventually use younger players in this tournment. I can use main team as i only have one league for now :D

Maybe it’s easy to setup something like this cause the code is already available, but ofc if it costs to much time don’t do it :)

It’s nice to see such initiative! I think it would not be that straightforward to officially add it to the game, so I’d rather not do it for now. Especially with all other high priorities such as scout reports, player morale, etc.

Good one, Will!

So, will it be next season Will? We need to know hows playing and when we should scheduled at season start…

And shouldn’t we arrange it for next season?!

Are you alive will???

I’m interested
