Right, following the farce of our last attempt, there has been a change in the line-up (slightly). Myself as Vitesse remains as it is. Phatmann2003 and Dan19 remain in charge of Roda JC and NEC Nijmegen respectively. As Stella's connection seems to be playing up, FC Twente may very well be...

You need to come back for good.

I'd like to point out that this idea is still supposedly going ahead and we will be trying again on Monday. People not showing their faces will be taken as a sign of non-interest, I guess!

I will be online tomorrow evening during the designated times - if anyone is up for trying again, we can.

That's not true, I'm afraid. The test game had more countries running than the "real" game. In the test game, we had all of the Eastern European countries running with all of their leagues - I think it was approximately 12-13 countries! I think it's far more likely to be the new patch...

People experienced extremely slow internet connections, and connectivity problems. Top Gun, after successful testing, couldn't get a stable connection, and kept crashing every time he looked at a particular item in-game. Original? was having to wait approximately 30 seconds per click due...

PSV, Ajax and Feyenoord - after some deliberation I've decided to include AZ Alkmaar, because they're closer to the chasing bunch than they are to the big three.

Nope, the teams will be drawn out of a hat.

Important: The game will be played on the new 8.0.2 patch, so please download it at some point today. We all need the same version to be able to play. Right, the following players - as long as they turn up - are all in: Myself Dan19 Original? Top Gun Stella Artois Phatmann2003 GhOsT...

The best way to combat the template problem is to create a template in Notepad, which has all the coding (bold tags or whatever - etc.) written out in full. Then, every time you're going to put some bets up, simply open the .txt file, copy it to your clipboard and paste away every time you're...

I can't believe you actually nicknamed him "Big Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink" in-game. :no:

OK, everything - as far as I'm aware - is in place for the off. All we need to do is get together and decide what league we're playing in. I have assigned a mystery special guest the role of team drawing, however we have to tell them where we'll be based for them to do that. All six...

It shouldn't be a problem, as I'll be running as server - it depends more on your internet connection. I think we've pretty much decided Mondays - you could easily enough get Monday evenings off work, if my experience in the bookies game is anything to by. Whether you'd want to consistently...

I'm at work now. :mellow: I tend to be on MSN most evenings, from around 6:30 onwards. EDIT: And I quote, "HUZZAH!"

I imagine you're correct on this one, I really didn't have my brain with me yesterday. You did, but I haven't seen you online on MSN yet! It's far easier for us all to assemble on MSN, before assembling on Hamachi/FM, so I'll send you the network details on MSN when I see you!

It works. We had to use Hamachi, though, as all the port-forwarding in the world wouldn't let Dan or anyone else connect! Download and install Hamachi, then get in touch with either me, Dan19, Phatmann or Original? for username/password details. EDIT: Latest confirmation news...

All the players need to have the same patch (i.e. 8.0.1), but the database (for transfers etc.) is irrelevant. The problem with people connecting to the server relates to me not opening up the relevant ports on my router (i.e. technical problem down my end) and will be sorted soon enough...

Right, I've just started a test game with the following settings: Football Manager 2008 v. 8.0.1 (i.e. patch required) Database: FMFormation.net's database update v.1.0 (released Feb. 7th - so all transfers done) Database size: Huge Server IP address: 192.168.0.2 / 90.196.77.249...
