JWB935 Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Keep starting games in the same league or as the same team. Now started in Paraguay as Penarol 4 seasons running having my second best FM game ever! (First was a Juve save in 2001). Just staying in the same league/country make you forget all the great smaller leagues/quirky rules/tournaments and players! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barkermush Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Ok, somethings in this thread really are Wierd, such as the hotdog thing. But the wearing the suits made me lol. I guess the wierdest thing i've done, is play goal music on windows media player everytime my team scored at home. [back in the CM03/04 days] Oh and on rare occasions i've read out the halftime scores from my League at halftime, like you would hear over the PA system at a real match. Sad but true.

SirFuzzyDunlop Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Back in 2003 I had a few years in the US and my roomates just couldn't understand my addiction to watching dots move around the screen for hours on end after work (first 2d match engine i think) but the weirdest thing I had during FM time was back then. My PC was right under the window in our trailer and our redneck lesbian neighbours just happened to have a bedroom window straight across from it.......with no curtains, nothing. Every single time I boot up FM it makes me remember some of the horrible scenes I had to witness. These women were the last couple you would want to see playing bedroom sports. I guess this just shows much much I love FM.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradmonk Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Reading the fulltime scores of the games like the old bloke does on Soccer Saturday. Playing FM on the bog, whilst grinning and murmering the words 'Ooooh yes, thats a belter.' (for both a goal or a No.2) Doing a Rafa sty'lee frantically scrawling on a notepad like a drunk 5 year old trying to work out new tactics/formations when my team are losing. Getting frustrated with the game, throwing the IR mouse and/or appliance remote controls out of the window from my 3 storey house and denting the roof of my car. Threatening failing players by looking at their profile and flicking their ears on their picture on the screen. Converse with my girlfriend. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crouchaldinho Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Locked myself in the toilet so that my wife wouldn't bother me as I played the last few games of a relegation battle with St. Albans City in the Championship on FM07. I presume my wife thought I was constipated. Or worse. The important thing was that we stayed up by one point thanks to a win away at Millwall on the last day of the season!

jkkne Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 After I won the Euro Cup with Gateshead I did a television interview on Skype with a friend...who thankfully was rather inebriated at the time This is after I spent the entire game standing up, swearing at the referee, waving my arms and telling Gary Madine I was retraining him as a central defender if he didn't score. When the whistle went I applauded all 4 corners of the room, shook hands with the opposing manager and staff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gourcuff20 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 I sometimes think of myself as IRL the guy who trains in the game... and answering questions in different press conferences. Sure, I do this while I am traveling by bus, train, while I am in the shower, while I am eating.. so in moments I usually don't do anything else, but now that I look at what others do, I realize I am not that crazy ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
