The amount of posts and views this thread is getting is a real encouragement to me to keep this going. I know there are more people in this sign up than most, but considering this thread started proper just last Sunday, to have had over 700 posts and over 7,000 views is awesome! icon_cool.gif

This sign up already exceeds the amount of posts and views I received for Commentators Curse II and we are about half way to surpassing Commentators Curse I posts / views and that went on for about 4-5 months continously. icon_biggrin.gif

Just to let you know, updates will be slowing down slightly over the next few weeks as I have exams in the middle of March and at somepoint I should probably start doing some work outside of college hours. Should still be daily updates, just not necessarily as many as there have been. icon_wink.gificon14.gif

Got the old exams too hey, mine are in may and me and 6 of my mates conviently booked a trip to egypt a few weeks beforeicon_smile.gif

Seems its going to be a good thing you're not posting as much then seeing as loads of us have got exams coming up icon_smile.gif

But everyone keep on posting etc and keep the interest going.

Look forward to the next update!

And good luck to everyone with exams. The reason I've been on so much recently is Im writing my dissertation and have t'internet going in the background (as well as FM of course!)

Good luck with the exams mate. If you put half the effort into studying that you put into this sign-up, they should be a breeze icon_wink.gif

Cheers guys icon14.gif

Unfortunately didn't have a choice over the exams as their for a professional qualification and my firm can sack me if I fail them... which is nice! icon_rolleyes.gif

As I said before, not until the middle of March so should still be able to do a round of matches per night (just not the several months worths I've been doing so far).

Good luck with all your exams.

On a more on-topic note, should be able to do another update for October tonight. icon_smile.gificon14.gif

Are you saying something about Liechtenstein? We take our football very seriously and that one point is valued highly and if I scored in that game, although unlikely seeing I've only scored 2 in my career, then I've probably already been made a national hero icon_biggrin.gif

Maybe because they pay me just over 2k!

WW you should add something like.. a transfer over -- gets you -- points stuff like that!

Felix is just considering his options, thats all.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I only want this sign up to focus on international games so I don't think I'll add points for transfers. icon_smile.gif

The Points System

Int Appearance = 5

Int Goal = 10

Int Own Goal = -10

Int MoM Award = 5

Int Yellow Card = -3

Int Red Card = -8 (2 yellows --> 1 red = -8)

Team Win = 3

Team Draw = 1

Bonus 25 points will be awarded if player finishes top scorer in the EURO / World Cup Qual Tournaments.

</pre>

Mike Bird is starting to dominate the charts this season and already promotion to the Premier Division looks a formality after 4 goals in 4 games. He has already surpassed Robert Boyle's winning total of 74 points from 2 seasons ago! Magnus Donaldson again shows off his ability by collecting a hattrick against Macedonia. If Northern Ireland played him more often then maybe they would have better results.

This month saw a new event and a new addition to the points system. Jason Demir has become the 1st wonderkid to score an own goal at int level and with it I have decided it is only fair that a new punishment of -10 points will be introduced (basically the negative points for scoring a goal).

Arthur Li made his debut and becomes the first player to appear in the Third Division.

Kapono is not in Europe with Catania.

A positive spin on Catania's season is that Kapono has scored a quarter of their league goals after 7 games... the reality is that is only 1 goal!

Catania are dead bottom of Serie A with 1 point from 7 games. icon_frown.gif

He did indeed, but if you read the bottom of the October Update you will see he scored an own goal, so instead of adding another column I netted the 2 goals off (an own goal counting as a minus goal).

Sorry mate. I zoomed in on the update and wrote my post without reading on... (Retreats cap in hand and red-faced)
