ggrive Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 One Name, One Team (Sign-up) This signup is about creating a team with all the players and staff with the same first name. I will track the league and how the teams perform during one season. Just one season for now. I will make updates every week. I will try to do to 2 or 3 game dates per update. In your squad should be of a minimum of 22 (2 goalkeepers) or 23 to 25 with 3 goalkeepers. You have to find a staff of: 1 Manager 1 Assistant Manager 3 Coaches 1 Scout 1 Physio Think that the best way to find the players is the editor. You can use any person you find in the 11.3 database. Here as a mode of example (if any of you wants to use this name I won't use it): Scott's team First XI GK – Scott Loach RB - Scott Sutter CB - Scott Dann CB - Scott Severin LB - Scott Chipperfield RM - Scott Brown MC - Scott Parker MC - Scott Robertson LM - Scott Ramsey ST - Scott McDonald ST - Scott Vernon Staff MANAGER - Scott Jocky ASSISTANT- Scott Leitch COACH - Scott Kallacher COACH - Scott Sellars COACH - Scott Thomson SCOUT - Scott McLachlan PHYSIO - Scott Geoff Sent me a PM with the name you choose and then I will confirm with you if this name is available or if it's one of this names that more than one team will be created. If two players choose this name we will make a draft for the players. Once all the names are approved, we will start with the composition of the teams. The 15 first PM will get a spot, the 16th is for me. List of common names: Alejandro Alessandro André Carlos Christian Cristian Daniel Diego Fernando Kevin Marco Pablo Paul Pedro Ricardo Roberto Thomas IMPORTANT: It's common in the latin countries to have more than one name. Jose Maria (Gutierrez, Guti), Jose Manuel (Reina), Luis Enrique (Martinez, manager of Barça B), Cristiano Ronaldo (yeah, Ronaldo isn't his family name, was chosen after Ronald Reagan, who was his father's favourite actor, lol). In these cases I will accept only the first of his given names. Jose, Jose, Luis and Cristiano. If the player's fooball name is a nickname, for example, Luisao (from Benfica), you will have to look at the full name, in this case Ânderson Luís da Silva. So, here we have that he's given name is Anderson Luis. Then I will accept him as an Anderson not a Luis. Good luck.

DSYoungEsq Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 What leagues do you have loaded? What is the size of the database? What's playable, and what is look only? These questions have an effect upon which names are best to use, or even available (have enough people to fill out a team). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggrive Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 What leagues do you have loaded? What is the size of the database? What's playable, and what is look only? These questions have an effect upon which names are best to use, or even available (have enough people to fill out a team). Since I'll be using the editor, you can use any person that appears in the 11.3 database. Also, I will try to post later today a list of the most common names in the editor. I hope it helps to encourage people to sign in. I also remove the rule that for some names more than one team can be created. That will smooth the system.

ggrive Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 im using the name Nicholas (do Nickolas, Nikolas, Nickolaus, and any other variation on the name count?) Sorry Nick, no variations of the name but you can use diminutives as Nick or Nicky. It's Gareth, not Gereth. Ooopss mistyped. Corrected! Steven's TeamI'm very reliant on 'steve' being ok for the staff? Very tricky otherwise... Obviously I'll need to know whether it's ok or not then, up to you. Sorry Adam, you will have to choose between Steven and Stephen. Steve is usually used as a diminutive of Stephen. About the GK problem. This is one of the interesting things of the signup. Not every name has good players for all the positions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biscotti Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I am potentially interested in giving this a go, but a quick question: Do players that go by a nickname (e.g. Brazilians, Portuguese, etc.) count as their real name, or not? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimpos Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 When are you starting this as I would like to do one, but would not be able to get the team to you until tomorrow morning about 9am.

18Rabbit Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'm curious too, say for instance Pato. His real name is Alexandre Rodrigues da Silva but his Common name in the DB is Pato. Is he eligible for an Alexandre team or only a Pato team? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggrive Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 I updated the participants list. There are 2 more spots if everybody that has requested a team sends it. I am potentially interested in giving this a go, but a quick question:Do players that go by a nickname (e.g. Brazilians, Portuguese, etc.) count as their real name, or not? The name I will take into account is the first name in the full name. For example, Ânderson Luís da Silva (Luisao from Benfica), he have Luis but he will be eligible for Anderson team since is the first of his forenames. When are you starting this as I would like to do one, but would not be able to get the team to you until tomorrow morning about 9am.Would Alex (the Chelsea defender) but eligible for an Alex team? When I started with the research for this signup, I come up with the Alex problematic. He's name is not Alexandre (Pato), Alejandro (I don't recall an Alejandro... but there are lots in the DB), Alessandro (del Piero) or Alexander (Ferguson). Alex from Chelsea is just Alex. That puts him in another category, the Alex, "The just Alex". I'm curious too, say for instance Pato. His real name is Alexandre Rodrigues da Silva but his Common name in the DB is Pato. Is he eligible for an Alexandre team or only a Pato team? Alexandre Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
