Default magicmastermind's KillerX signup

magicmastermind’s KillerX signup
I have been thinking of starting a challenge for some time right now, and after playing this great game called The Ship, and receiving feedback from others, I have come up with what I believe is a brilliant idea for a signup.
There will be 18 available places in this signup. All of these players will be distributed into a team entering the English Coca Cola Championship league. Monthly reports will be given by me on the thread, and we will see how the game goes.
But there is a twist. The players will be drawn out of a hat and will compete against each other. Whoever performs the worst out of those two will be ‘killed’ by the winner under the direct order of the evil chairman, Mr Killer X, at the end of the season, on his birthday, June the 5th. At his birthday party, 9 new players can join the game, and the season will start off again.
Here are some guidelines for this sign-up for everyone’s reference, including my own.
Preston North End will be replaced in the data editor by a make-believe team called Killer X’s Hunters for the first season. This team will host their matches at “The Northern Star” stadium. Nothing else will be changed regarding the team other than their players.
•Using the form below, any user on this forum can fill out their details to join this sign-up game.
•Once all places are allocated, I will draw everyone against another player. These two will compete against each other in the game. They must outperform the other in order to win. The player with the best average rating in competitive matches at the end of the season wins.
•Monthly (in-game) updates will be given, which will highlight each players game and the team’s progress. When necessary, updates will be given more frequently, e.g. towards the end of the season.
•At the end of the season, the losers of each match will be ‘killed’ by the order of Mr X.
•For those who lose, they will be forced to become a ‘passenger’ for at least a season before they can partake again.
As there is no save-game editor at the moment, the game will have to stop at the end of the season. However, all winners will be able to carry on playing in a new game set up with their statistics the same, but with their age increased by 1 year. New players will be able to join at this point, and an appropriate team will be taken over in whatever league position they finished. (If 1st, the last placed team in the division above. If last, the 1st placed team in the division below.)
Here is the form for you all to start filling out. I’d also like you hear your thoughts on this sign-up.

2 Attributes at 20 for Mental:

2 Attributes at 20 for Technical/Goalkeeping:
8 Attributes are 15 for anywhere:
2 Preferred Moves:

Everyone will be given a potential ability of -8, and those who stay on will be given a potential ability of -9 if they win the first season they play and -10 if they win in the second season. If they win a third season they will be given a potential ability of 200. Using FM Genie Scout, their current ability will be tracked and passed on to the next game at the end of the season. This figure will not be disclosed.
Finally, this will be run on FM07 version 7.0.2 with the help of FM Genie Scout to help improve the game experience behind the scenes. I may move it to future versions of FM once FM Genie Scout is compatible with that version of FM.
Here is the list for you to write your forum names down on. Copy and paste into your post along with your forms. Happy signing!

Just a quick note. I presume this is your first sign up (which sounds a very good idea!!) however, most sign ups (in fact, probably all sign ups) generate a certain amount of interest. Even the best ones only average between 9 to 12ish people on a long term basis.

With this one you have in mind gaining 18 people, which I have no doubt you'll get straight off the bat (most sign ups always draw 22 people). But what you'll find is by the end of the 1st Season, you'll be lucky if there are 12 people still interested.

Say for example that 6 people drop out leaving you with 12 people interested. However, say that the 6 dropped out Win their particular battle, that will leave you with only 6 people left in the Thread and 6 people who were following the Thread being frozen out for a Season!! Now, most people that are interested in a Thread will stay with it through thick and thin and until the end, throwing them out will mean they won't re-join.

Check the most popular sign ups (by most popular, I'm talking the ones that actually managed to reach 10 pages before either lack of interest from people participating or person starting it) and you'll probably find that at the end of those the people still interested were less than 10.

It's a good idea for a Season long run, but long term it lacks the infinite number of people interested in the thread.

Just a thought, but great idea!! :thup:
