Okay, so managing Man-ure, having millions to psend right from the beginning is a bigger challenge?

If LLM stopped being a challenge, then the FM itself wll have ceased to be a challenge - idiot. </BLOCKQUOTE>

No, but LLM becomes a chore after the first time. Once you've done it once, what's left to prove?

Who's trying to prove anything?

Personally, I simply enjoy playing FM this way far more than I did before it occurred to me that there might be more to this game than editing all my players to have max stats.

I play FM the LLM way because I enjoy it. If you're playing the same game for a different reason, you're more of a tool than you realise.

LLM isn't a chore. It's natural.

Having to play the game with millions of cheats because I have to win it by collecting every piece of silverware going is a chore.

Playing as realistically as the game allows and not cheating myself of the ebb and flow of success is not about proving something, it's about enjoying the game. Simple as that.

That's the difference between a LLaMa and a non-believer. You see a chore. We see the beautiful game.

Enjoy your game.

I'm not a non-believer, nor do I 'edit all my players to have max stats' - I used to enjoy LLM, but once you've played it enough and know what works and what doesn't, it loses some of the fun for me. I've had to use the editor to give myself challenges - Like swapping a Conference N/S side for a Premiership side and trying to keep them up until the side you swapped them for returns to the Prem.

Yes. By "knowing what works" you obviously refer to all the stuff you learnt in the GPG and other places.

It's your own fault that you ruined the fun for yourself. So go on and keep using the editor but don't tell us about it. We're not interested.

I've never used the GPG to find players. I've only been a member for a couple of days, and the only times I've been in there was offering advice to others. So by 'knowing what works' I'm referring to things learnt by actually playing the games, as I have been ever since CM1. Just because I visited those forums, don't make assumptions about my background or ability. I go there just because I'm interested to see what others are doing with the game, no other reason.

Do you know what works in all the countries in the game? You must get through seasons pretty fast. :eek:

And your posts thus far indicate you are a non-believer in the context in which it was used. You've used an editor to do the unrealistic swap of a Conf N/S side with an Prem one, which is about as much of a non-believer in the LLaMa code as it's possible to get.

Have you read the posted guidelines at all?
