Hmmm, they should be separated, that’s how I designed it. I’ll have a look.
Cheers.
Shame on you Ulisses! You should update your “product” so people don’t think RubySoccer is broken! Hahaha :-)
Lam Huot’s skills show as blue to me. I’ve looked Erwan Giry in the database and I can see he’s not marked to have the skills decreased, he still has skill points to increase, given his age. If anybody ever sees that happening again send me an in-game message so I can look at it quicker.
Cheers.
Problem solved guys, it was simpler than I thought it would be. Next tick postponed to keep the schedule. Enjoy!
Something very wrong happened during FastTicker’s season tick…it will be a while until we can figure it out, specially because it’s Sunday morning and we have friends visiting from Brazil here at home. We’ll do our best :-)
Cheers.
Transfer restrictions in place for managers after joining a new team. As soon as you join a new team you won’t be able to buy players for more than the estimated value. The amount you can offer increases slowly every turn until you’re with the team for 72 turns or more. When that happens the restrictions are removed.
Cheers.
Dimitri, the answer to your question is yes, this is still the case:
“Teams get youth players based on their country ranking. So France gets better players than Russia.
Second and first division team have the same chance of good youth players, though in the first division it’s easier (and quicker) to develop players.
So there is no way to influence the level of your youth players, apart from raising your country ranking.”
That’s a good suggestion, though it’s not trivial to implement. As you said, the drag and drop feature works fine on PCs, notebooks, etc, so our plan is to have a simpler version of the formations screen specifically designed for smartphones. If we find a good way to use your suggestion we’ll definitely consider it! :-)
FastTicker back to life. Next tick will be in approximately 6h40, resulting in a 12 hours shift from the previous schedule. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Cheers.
Yes it is. Unfortunately I’m at work right now with no access to our server. We’ll have a look at it as soon as possible.
Sorry guys.
Sometimes contract proposals were being rejected and the player asked for a lower wage, which doesn’t make sense. This has now been fixed. Thanks Filipe Silva for being the first one to report this some time ago.
Cheers.
Hotlists fixed, at last! You are now able to remove teams, managers and players from your hotlist.
Cheers.
I’ll be officially back to work after Easter ;-)
Sometimes GMs get ahead of themselves when trying to help us, don’t feel bad about it. By the way we are back from our vacations, we should go back to work slowly :-D
We’ve checked these guys before and they seem to be just brothers, not the same person. I understand why people would give up a CL spot to get to Europa League (where they may have more chances of going further), but it is frustrating when you depend on their results. This also happens in real life in Brazilian league, where teams would play lazily when their victories would benefit local rivals.
We’ll make sure there is a better consolidated rules page for the game and the forums. We do have a lot of Portuguese speakers playing the game and I suppose it would be good to have language specific topics or forums clearly identified. It could be in the topic title like “[Topic language] Topic title”. English is preferred though when we are discussing important subjects, theoretically the majority will be able to understand and give an opinion.
Calm down guys. Here is the translation for what Lince said:
“From what I’ve noticed Bordeaux’s manager was fired by bad performance and who got the club was Gimnastic’s manager who did not remember having applied for the job and decided to stay on his old club, so the managers were put back on their places ??
Why were them favored ?? When there were if I’m not mistaken 2 other managers applying for Bordeaux and with a better ranking than Dirk. This is simply unacceptable
If he was fired why was he put back if when you’re fired you can’t apply for the same team. I ask the admin to verify the case and confirm that there were more managers applying that should have got the team”
Back to me. I was the one who put Dirk and Gimnastic managers back to their clubs. The reason for that was simple: the guy got Bordeaux by mistake and Dirk wanted to stay at the club. Our system does not store the managers that were applying, once the manager is fired, therefore there is no way to confirm who was applying. Even if we did, there is no way to know if they were above Dirk in the ranking at that time.
I understand Lince’s concern, but those managers that were applying would not get Bordeaux anyway, Gimnastic’s manager had already got the club so the other applications would be dropped anyway so I don’t think my decision did any harm.
Guys, remember we are all here to have fun and this is not the first time we’ve addressed manager’s requests. We always do our best to be fair and do no harm when we have to “manually” interfere, but of course our decisions will not always be good ones.
Cheers.
For those of you who used to play ManagerSim, Tigres is to RubySoccer what Fiorentina was to ManagerSim. I don’t remember who the manager was, but the guys had incredible players and managed to win the league several seasons in a row, sometimes with victories in ALL the 38 matches. Tigres’ manager seem to have the same addiction and luck the Fiorentina manager had back there. The fact we don’t give you any other explanation is only because we can’t find anything to disqualify the manager’s behavior. The guy has no access to our code or database…and if this was enough I would be the best manager :-D
Now, about Libertadores groups, I feel it is time to put that to an end. I have an important bug to fix but I’ll do my best to increase the number of groups and make sure teams from the same country are not placed in the same group.
Cheers!
The groups are really unbalanced…as soon as we add more countries and have 8 groups on this stage I can put back the logic that guarantees teams from the same country in different groups.
It certainly will look fishy in the eyes of others, but when you clearly state what you’re doing making the GMs and Admins aware and they find it reasonable you can go ahead and do it. People have been doing trades of players by paying ridiculous amounts to each other to make sure nobody else gets involved in the deal, so I guess the same common sense and awareness rules apply here.
We are aware of the problem, shouldn’t be hard to fix. Thanks guys :-)
For the English speakers: this discussion started with Lince questioning the result, as you may have guessed; Filipe then pointed out the fact that players with 31 years old or more are not affected by the fact they’re playing away; after that the discussion is pretty much around this rule, whether or not it is a fair way of making older players valuable.
Continua em funcionamento sim. É uma forma de levar em consideração a experiência dos mais velhos que não se intimidam ao jogar fora de casa.
This should never happen and I’ve never seen this before (and I track my players stats very carefuully ;-) ). We plan to have some temporary decrease for players that are not playing regularly or something like that, but it is not implemented yet. If you do see that happen again let us know which player so we can investigate.
I can see the option to suggest the page but only because I’m and admin…not sure how to enable it for everybody yet. The link was in the information tab, but I’ve also added it to the main page on the left hand side.
We’ll add screenshots later, but of course you guys can use your own screenshots! That would be great. I’ll have to wait until I get home to do anything on Facebook, I can’t access it here at work ;-)
We now have a page on Facebook. Check it out!

Not sure if the long tick times is related to us working on it, sometimes our servers just get less cpu capacity than usual and we have to talk to our host. We’ll see if that’s the case.
We’ll have 8 groups, we just need to add 1 or 2 European countries :-)
Hello guys! I’ve just confirmed in our database that all players aged 31 or more are set not to improve anymore. Regarding the player with 100 skills at 38 it is perfectly possible as Danilo pointed out, but of course it is not common, as you can see. Lots of factors can lead to that, the player was lucky not to lose skills frequently and when he did it was never on those top skills.
Cheers!
