    Hey all,

    I got an idea the other day with a few of my friends where we all put each other into the game database and holiday'd our way from season to season to see if any of us made it big

    So the basics of the sign up are:

    You give your Name, DOB, Favourite Club, Position(s) & Nationality(s)

    There will be 16 places available, and there will be updates at the end of each in-game season. All players will start out as youngsters, with there potential ability set to random, and current ability will be randomely generated with a minimum of 50

    Just post in this thread if you’re interested along with the relevant information

    I'll Start

    I can't seem to edit my post but I am going to change to CM, that's actually where I play and we have way too many forwards :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,428 ✭✭✭busyliving


    Not a worry Reganio 2, so i've started putting the players into the DB, should be done fairly soon and then i'll post screen shots of each player and we'll go from there.

    If I don't post the screen shots within the next two days, just take it that i'm busy trying to get a job and i haven't gotten the change to get it all up and running:D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,428 ✭✭✭busyliving


    Ben Dover is the first player to make the break through...coming on as a 76th minute sub in Rovers in their 2nd Rnd FAI Cup game against Limerick which finished 1-1. He also managed to pick up a yellow card during the short time on the field

    Then in the very next game, David-Valentine Sutton is the first player to play a league game, which was 0-0 against Drogheda...Playing from the start, Sutton kept and Clean Sheet and getting a Rating of 6.7

    Jaysus, seems like an awful lot of detail to go into. Fair play man, really looking forward to this!

    Yeah I know, but the fact his with Leeds has a massive influence on his value:D

    With you being at Utd, it's going to be hard to break through, but in saying that...its still very very early

    He looks to be very injury prone...3 injuries in like 3 months:eek:

  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 7,943 Mod ✭✭✭✭Yakult


    Good work, cant wait to see more! Looking into the HTML for you now btw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,732 ✭✭✭Reganio 2


    I am slightly dissapointed Val played 2 games and kept 2 clean sheets. The LOI is rubbish :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,428 ✭✭✭busyliving


    Hey all sorry for not updating ye sooner...but I lend my FM disk to my house mate and his lost it...so i'm hoping to get this challenge back on track once he replaces the disk...Sorry again

    Unacceptable. I need to know how I'm getting on. Have I broken into the first team? Am I keeping my nose clean? Is the big city of Rome too much for a young Irish lad?

    These are the things that keep me up at night!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 7,943 Mod ✭✭✭✭Yakult


    Anyone else want to give this idea a new breath of fresh air, as in carry on the idea!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,953 ✭✭✭✭CSF


    Not interested in this particular idea, but when FM12 comes around we really have to get this place going with a number of challenges and the like.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 7,943 Mod ✭✭✭✭Yakult


    Definably get some challenges up and running for FM12.
    Cant say I'm fond of 11 like I was 10. Here's hoping!!
