@flameboy last attempt to tempt you to the xpert side again :p otherwise I'll be creating the new season so people can see who they're up against when we start!

She was also holding an artifact that could "hold the answer to death itself". She ain't dead forever.
Also look at what was in the box at the start.
I guess so but having the arm get cut off seems like it should negate anything positive that might've come from it. She said herself that she could feel it killing her... It would be typical Marvel/comic fashion for her to be revived but in this instance I think it makes better sense for her to stay dead.

Man, that was AWESOME. Great season opener.
I hope Lucy Lawless isn't dead. Didn't seem super conclusive.
Absorbing Man. YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
Dose cameos.
LOVED the twist with Simmons - I'm sure she'll be back!
Epicz.
She seemed pretty dead to me... it's one thing losing half your arm but then the trauma and impact of that crash too? She dead bro.

Where are you off to @DuD?
Most places are decent for wi-fi these days but as Ell says, you can give someone you trust control of the team for a few games if you need to.

Hey Peeps never see you on Steam atm
So was gonna say you ok with me doing the thread? Will aim to have it done by the end of the cup if so
Yeah I was going to send you a PM to see if you're happy to do it again
Roughly what date will the new season start? Need to buy 1 or 2 players as our change report was a bit pants!The league will start on the 10th of October
-
This game confuses my shit. I think I'm just too thick for this game though, lmao.
We're all here to help if you need it. Is there anything in particular?
The idea is to raise a strong team. We're out of season at the moment so nothing is really happening. Once the season begins you'll be placed in the lower league and you'll have 18 matches fixed to play everyone twice, home and away. So you want to set your tactics before each game, keeping in mind your team's strength and development values (dv).
At the end of each season, your player will raise in skill if they have a dv of 10 or more. For a visible raise (actually increasing by a whole skill bar) you want to aim for 15 minimum for younger players and 16-17+ for older players.
So while you're just starting out, you should be focussed more on gearing your tactics towards developing your players than actually winning - although obviously you want to try and win too. The more matches your players take part in, the more DV they'll get. You want to keep them in high form too because that will affect their DV. If you have the money, a vague/basic rule is to train anyone with a downwards arrow in the FT column of the squad page.

Ok well this is simply what I'd do if I were in your shoes :p
Your keepers are both good for just starting out, probably the strongest part of your team. From an economical point of view you'd be best off selling the 25-9 as he'd fetch more money but he's obviously the better keeper. If it were me starting out, I'd keep the 25-8. The justification is that while they're ok, neither keeper is actually at the level you'd want them to be for their age (25-11 is the aim) so it's not really that big a hit. It's your choice whether or not to buy in (or wait for) a youth keeper to train up.
I'd probably get a 30-10+ on the cheap (spend no more than around 1m) simply as a reserve with no intention to play him - just in case your main keeper is injured and build up the funds for a suitable replacement. Although at this stage it would be more viable for you to buy in a 17/18-4/5 and train them up.
Defence: Keep the 23-8 and the two youths or if you're a better man than me, sell the 18-6 for at least 10m (just as a starting point). If you sell him, replace him with a youth and buy in two older, high-skilled players for a 5-man defence. Obviously the primary focus is on the youths.
Midfield: Keep the 23-8 and 29-8, bring in two or three youths. If you only bring two youths in, you'll need another high-skilled midfielder.
Forwards: keep the 26-8, bring in a youth. If you want three forwards then buy another high-skilled, older player. Focus on training up the youths. I find forwards are the hardest to develop so play the youth as much as possible and switch between the two older players. Personally I only keep two forwards in my team.
This would give you a good starting point for development and in a few seasons when your youths are reaching 23-25 you can either buy in some older players for a really strong team, or play the long game and get a new round of youths to play alongside them. Once this second round of youths come of age, your team should not only be quite strong but also still quite young with more development still to be had.
-
It might even be worth selling him so you can spend out on a more balanced team. I'm not sure I could part ways with him if he were mine though! lol
If @Cube and @Happenstance would like, I can post up a 'review' of your teams like I did with @Animal here but neither of you are new to the game so you probably don't need any guidance :p
-
I saw a flashing icon next to the n-e league on xpert and thought 'great, one of my PMs on the site got through to someone'... but it was just @Cube and I'm guessing Haden roped him back in.
Seriously though, good to have you back in the game dude (and well done Haden for being the only one able to recruit it seems!)

Such a poser
-
Any friend of ReZ's is a friend of mine very unfortunate indeed.
-
I don't want to insult you, I just find it funny how you seem to remember certain events. I also find it funny how you felt my post above was in some way attacking you. Lighten up pls ty.
-
Yes, because again you're choosing to ignore what I posted and posting something to make out I'm suggesting something else entirely. Well done you!
Do you even bother reading or interpreting our posts or just post to be an ass? You've done this in this thread with me before which of course turned into turmoil as a result.
I'd not mind so much if you didn't just blatantly ignore what I said and instead made up your own version of events and labelled me because of them... such a dick move.
You are a joke.
-
Yes because why be pleased at improving your social skills and confidence with women if you haven't banged them senseless.

I'll get in on the cup if I still can.Massive change report this round, I think I'm finally turning this boat around again.
It would be great to see you get promoted next season, you've been festering in the lower league for too long!
My change report:
The triangle splodges are those that visibly raised. Pretty much as expected but I would've liked Tennant and Gledhill to have raised.

Im still not enjoying it all that much and seeing as we and the Doctor know that the Silence and an alien like Prisoner Zero already exist, the whole search in that episode felt stupid.
I agree but I still kind of enjoyed the episode.

Peeps, what is this automatic 250k from your main sponsor? I don't get that
Promotion secured and with best dev stats for my team for a while. Back up for 1 more season... to just go back down again next season!
You do get it, it's automatic it's only once per month, if you keep an eye on your transactions you'll see it pop up.
Not to be confused with the press bonus which is once a week if you do a PR over 300 characters.
You in for the cup?

If you're not expecting to let your reserve keeper see the light of day, go for as cheap as possible but I'd still try for 10 skill minimum
