Ok, people are getting a bit excited here. There is obviously some winding up going on, so lets ignore that. But, are we saying that Conference National is OK as a starting point for this forum's guidelines? Because that does kind of contradict what I have heard in the past.

I am relatively new in these forums, as I'm sure you realise, and it would be nice if this was clarified as I always thought it was 'lowest possible division' as stated above.

Or is LLM more a style of play, regardless of division?

Cheers.

LLM is surely a style of play regardless what division you're in.

Adding to that it's normal to start in the lowest league available.

Two exceptions to that rule are generally acceptable:
1) Wannabee llama's who want to try out living the life of a llama but don't want to jump into the deep right away
2) Lousy pc specs preventing loading all available divisions (although I assume very few are having such lousy specs to justify this excuse as even my 3 year old pc is quite capable of running a few leagues at once)

Read Kostis' post. Read the stickies. Your awnsers are in there. Jeez.

No ambiguity there as to what a LLM club is, yes?

Nice and easily explained.

Play all the divisions your computer lets you. However - you'll only be deemed "proper" LLM if you're playing in the Conference N+S.

People will generally get away with the Conference because when the guidelines were written, there was no conference N+S in the game, so a lot of Llama favourites are now conference sides.

Also a lot of the Llama's are so old that they don't have up-to-date PC's that let them play all those divisions. Think of the dilemma your dad faces when trying to work a DVD player - that's what its like for those guys...

Ok, thanks guys. :thup:

It is easily confusable (partcularly for new people) when Kostis (Kfool i assume) and the stickies both say 'lowest available div' and this thread was seeming to allow Northwich as an acceptable starting point.

I could be wrong, but I would imagine most PCs that are capable of playing FM are capable of having just all English divs on a small database? I stand to be corrected though!

I get the impression though that the important thing is how you play the game, ie, in a LLM style.

Keep calm fids, don't hurt your head!!!
