Asunto: III.5

As the immortal Ivan Drago said, "I must break you."

Although Rocky beat him, so maybe that's not the best quote...

Well, you quoted Rocky 4 and won the game by 4 goals. Maybe if I (butcher a) quote the original Rocky, I will get a 1 goal victory so here I go.

"Drifters meet the Flying Pigs. Now that sounds like a damn monster movie"

Looking back at that movie, Apollo Creed had no memorable quotes at all. Had to edit one I remembered just to have something. :p

Apollo Creed saying "Ding...Ding" at the beginning of Rocky 4 was always funny to me.

Good luck to everyone this season!

So, as an admittedly new and inexperienced yet very diligent and interested manager, anyone wanna lay odds if I'll be able to make it into the top 8 by the end of the season?

Good luck in the tourneys everyone. Looks like there's a lot of late season new managers. Even though there wasn't enough time to make it into the top 8 playoffs, could be some VERY interesting series even in the lower brackets. And then there's the next season in 3 weeks.....

That's the best part of the game. Seasons come quickly and change does as well in the bottom levels.

Just a friendly reminder, especially with the upcoming U18/U20 expansion to the national teams, please post any players you have that are good, and please post them often, as that is how they are updated. Thank you!

Hello, it would be very helpful if anyone with good players, 18 and under (as well as over 18 for the u20 and senior national teams), could post those players to the database. It would also help if scouted players who were previously posted could be updated, especially if they were not posted since a previous season. Your support for the USA national teams will be very much appreciated.


Post players to:

http://usa-db.powerplay.nixiweb.com/index.php


Directions:

1. Open a player's profile which you want to upload or update on PPM.
2. On the player's profile page, right-click on the blank page and choose "View source code" or alternatively use CTRL+U (or check how to access source code on your particular type of browser).
3. Highlight everything with CTRL+A and then copy everything with CTRL+C.
4. Paste copied source code with CTRL+V in the form on the Upload Players tab.
5. After confirming by clicking on "Send,” the player will be uploaded or updated in database.

looks like this may end up being a 3 or 4 team league this season. competitively speaking.
Anywho...after reading the previous post by Capsaicin, i'm left wondering if this needs to be updated again?

The old website doesn't function any longer, and a replacement hasn't yet been created.

For now, the national team managers just scout on their own with the help of a few others.

If you think you have a good player, feel free to contact the manager of the appropriate team.

For the U18, I am generally looking for 18 year olds with at least 700 OR, 17 year olds with at least 600 OR, or elite 16 year olds with at least 500 OR. I am willing to consider players up to 50 OR below the thresholds if they are otherwise promising. The threshold may vary depending on the depth at a given position for a particular year.

The average of the relevant qualities should be around at least 80, unless the player has above average OR.

The player should have access to at least a level 13 training center and level 12 regeneration facility unless the player has good OR and nearly perfect qualities. With a few exceptions, this eliminates most players from tier III leagues, though a player sold by any tier III league team to a team with good facilities can still be a good candidate.

Please stop spamming the forums.

so yeah
