Hello Everyone
Good to see so many old faces I know back in g19 and thanks to Neil and Jay for sorting it out. Also getting to know a fair few other managers I've never really spoken to.
I'm in discussions with Neil about this and it's gonna take a little bit of work to refine before we launch but looking to start ASAP whilst g19 is going I know it might be a bit much for everyone but for the next couple of weeks most of us will be isolating or working from home so I'd like to use that time to start filling up all the squads, most of the game is explained below, any questions or anything you don't understand please post below or DM me.
Its novel in the way that there is NO advantage to be gained from scouting in players because they've been added to the database, nobody can pull a fast one and bid to unmanaged when a player has been moved on the DB etc, all the things some managers have complained about in that past. You cannot sell players for cash unless they go Auction List, to OOC or you are in debt and it's enforced, swaps or part exchange ONLY, so nobody can complain about not having had a chance to bid for somebody. Even newly scouted players or a player not in any of the managed squads has to be put on the auction list, for example you will email me and say "Can you put that Reinier that Real Madrid on the auction please" I'll put it on the boards that he is available, minimum bid £25mil and all bids are to be made by a set time by email or DM. Same goes for any player you want to buy that isn't at a managed club already.
All staff is the same, staff cannot be bought or sold between clubs, tactics and team selection is as per normal Necom methods. The main difference is everyone starts with a billion necom pounds and has to populate their squads with the players. More details below...
Here is the outline of my game idea
12 managers minimum
24/36 maximum number of managers
Minimum commitment 2 seasons, but only pay one season at a time up front
You can have any club you want
Every club starts with NO players and £1 Billion to buy players with and you have to spend at least £900 million on your initial squad
You must have a minimum of 22 players in the squad and a maximum of 25
NO scouting
If you want to add ANY player to the game they must be put on auction and bid for, bidding open to everyone.
To build your squad every day there will be a list of 20 players and at a suitable time every day during this lockdown we will all bid for these players, one bid allowed per manager for each player, all made in private to an email address or WhatsApp number
There is NO maximum bid amount as long as you have enough money to fill the rest of your squad, the minimum bid per player is £25 million
Eg
You can buy Salah, Messi or Neymar as your marquee signing for £300million if you want beating in mind you have to buy 22 other players for a minimum £25mil each which totals £525 million so you won't be able to pay much more than £25 million per player for the rest of your squad as that will total £825 mil and you have contracts etc to think about, similarly you could buy 22 players a aerating about £40mil each and still have £120mil left over, there's loads of possibilities but you get my drift.
In the unlikely event a player is not bid for by anyone then he will be discarded to be used at a later date
If there is more than one manager bidding the same amount for a player that player goes to whichever manager has spent the least at the time of bidding except for the first bid where a random computer draw may be done to settle the matter
All deals will not be for Necom values - swaps ONLY and anything goes but a panel of 5 managers will be randomly selected to adjudicate on the fairness of any swap deal should it be questioned by anyone
Everything else will be Necom though, wages contracts, training, staff etc
We will all be asked to keep an eye on finances, player scouting etc and anybody trying to cut corners will be given a warning and if persistent will be ejected from the game. Anyone who isn't doing turns etc, your team won't be allowed to be run down and another manager will be found
There's a few tweaks to be made before it goes anywhere and I need Jay to be on board to help with the squads etc and for Neil to agree but what do you think in principle? I will also amend prize money, just working out a realistic end of season payout for finishing in certain positions and European and cup prizes too. That will be added to your clubs finances at the end of every season.
Everybody gets a good share of decent players with a minimum of 12 clubs with about 300 players to be shared between them or more players if more managers, ideally two full leagues and 600 odd players distributed would be perfect.
There's loadsssssss to choose from but we can pick whoever we want and nobody can moan cos if they wanted them that bad they should've coughed up
Similar thought process to something like the official premier league fantasy football when picking squads as you have to prioritise certain players and fill in the gaps after if you catch my drift
Any opinions and views post below or DM me
I have about 6 or 7 managers potentially interested.
We can start picking and bidding for players sooner rather than later and it'll keep the next couple of weeks nice and busy before the game starts in earnest
Once again I know g19 is all th rage now and this might be a big much with day to day life and other commitments but back when some of us played two or three games at a time it wasn't a problem, look forward to having a few of you on board to this fantastic new game which I will be donating money for every team that plays to Macmillan Cancer Support after the death of my mother last November, totally independent of what it costs to play the game, just a gesture from me on behalf of all my fellow Necom managers, I hope there's not too many of us now lol
