The position column in the form table now represents the team’s current position in the league.
Noted. Simple addition :-)
I’ve just tested on a different computer and it is working. Maybe it’s the java version? In the one where it works I’m using version 1.6.0_29 (you can see that by clicking in the java icon in your system tray once the match replay page is loaded). If you can’t make it work please let us know the operating system/browser/java version you’re using so we can help you resolving this.
Cheers.
Hmmm…I’ve just tried myself and got an error. We’ll have to investigate. Thanks Charles!
Have you noticed the new link called “Form” in the league table screen? That’s the link to the new form table! There you can compare the recent league performance (last 6 matches) of all the teams in the league. Enjoy!
Cheers.
In fact you have to wait 144 turns (1 season) before going back to a team you’ve managed.
That’s weird, this match wasn’t played for some reason. It shows on your main screen because we look for the next matches to be played (no score registered yet), no matter when it is supposed to happen (even in the past, in this case :-)). I’ll remove it.
Cheers.
Eerste Divisie was a piece of cake (it didn’t look like it would be at the beginning). I wish I could have won the cup against you, Dimitri. Eredivisie will be fun next season :-)
Just solved your problem, as it was reasonable and a simple change :-)
We’ve taken the first step in reducing the board interference on loyal managers’ decisions. You are now able to fire any player, even the ones the board consider important, if you’ve been on the same team for at least 3 seasons. This number can be adjusted in the future, if it makes sense to do so.
Cheers.
Players estimated values are calculated based on real transfers between human managers. If you see the player values constantly decreasing it means the overall value paid in MediumTicker transfers has been decreasing lately. The idea is to make the estimated value close to what people would pay for similar players.
Currently reputation is only related to cheating or suspicious activities. I agree loyal managers and those playing for a long time should have some preference when applying for a new club. I like the idea of including such attributes in the manager information page.
All done. Seven accounts banned, Heleno fired and reputation reduced. I haven’t had much time lately to read the forums and do the housekeeping here so I really appreciate all the help :-)
Cheers
Well, we can think about it, but the way it is now I’m not sure how easy it is to separate the newspaper development from the rest. At least the article templates is a separate thing, as soon as we have new types of articles we’ll definitely need everybody’s help. But again, let’s focus on fixing what’s already there first :-P
Newspaper is one of the features with a lot of potential but it’s been abandoned for some time. We are aware of all those issues, it’s just that we always choose something else to work on :-(
I’m willing to change it to balance the hiring of good veterans who can have an immediate impact on the team vs young promising players. It makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the input guys.
I think it does make sense to change the rule, either based on manager reputation or player age. I’ll take a note.
Cheers.
I’m sure that with more managers we will have a better transfer market. It’s not fair to have an active market based on CPU dumb decisions. I’m glad to hear players are being sold to CPU after the change, I’ve also sold one myself earlier this season.
I hope to get promotion this season and qualify for an international competition in the next. First goal seems to be easier, even the board expects that. Not sure about the second, too many strong teams out there, even though most are not currently managed.
When I joined Colombia I barely avoided relegation but then won two league titles in a row. Not a big deal given the weakness of the league there. My greatest accomplishment was the 4 points scored in Libertadores group stage, beating São Caetano in the first match and holding Boca Juniors to a 2-2 draw in the second.
See you next season, Dimitri :-)
Yes, wrong topic, but I’ll answer anyway :-)
Felipe Santos told me he had a second account (Nuno Lopes) so I blocked the second account but let him keep Marseille instead of Gama.
Cheers.
It’s fine if the player is transfer listed before announcing retirement…maybe we should change this rule and remove the player from TL when he announces it.
CPU teams can…they’re not cheaters :-)
@Vaughn: I agree, next change to CPU behavior will make them increase coaching level when they’re financially comfortable to do so.
Not a bug, we just got used to sell our not-so-good players to CPU teams. I believe they’ll start buying again once they can’t find players they consider promising in the free transfer. We’ll need a few season to have a better idea how the change is working, if it’s a bad thing we can redesign the CPU buying behavior again.
Cheers
It doesn’t care about stamina, just choose the “best” in overall skills.
Cheers
CPU teams were too fond of good old players, now they prefer a long-term strategy, hiring younger prospects or players they believe might be useful in a few seasons. I’m sure I’ll miss them buying my veterans as well. Let’s see how this change will affect CPU squads.
Welcome to RubySoccer Bruno! I hope you enjoy your time here and get in touch with some managers from SoccerSim.
Cheers
But getting 10+ teams is only an advantage if they play well, cause the country points is the average of the teams’ points. My suggestion to reduce the discrepancies is to stop giving points for pre-group stage matches and for getting into the group stage, that means only victories or draws during the group stage and following stages would be considered. How does that sound?
Managers fired, reputation reduced, moved to the bottom of the manager ranking. They were warned to not immediately join each others team or the same league, otherwise they’ll just be fired again. heraser can become a GameMaster if he feels he enjoys the job :-)
Improved decision making for CPU teams when buying / selling players or hiring youths. They now have a better guess on the player potential instead of just considering their immediate needs. Loaning players not included yet.
Cheers.
