Asunto: Anyone still here?

Ask me always you want it, or league stats, anything you need guys.

Wow, was trying to scout a youth from Viet Nam (who have 90 managers), and there is literally 0 forum talk.

I would almost expect to find the talk in a hidden forum or external forum is it that lacking.

How can there be so little talk with so many users

Interesting for my next league game...

Looks like one & only log in was 16 May 2020....weird.

That was probably an admin logging in to release Johnny Patrizi

Thought it might have something like that. Did get me wondering all the same, as was scouting for next weeks games to see if I needed to give preference to league or cup....looks much the same as last week.

oh...also reached out manager "gulzzy" who I bumped off 11-0 in round one as notice they're a recent joiner....

Offered words of encouragement & also if they need any advice etc., to give a shout....also steered them towards the forums & mentioned the NT setup in case they need some incentive to stick around.

Nice work reaching out. He does tend to reply to sk-mail which is good, but haven't seen him in forum yet. Hopefully he sticks around. I have noticed he grabs a lot of the Aussies off the transfer market which is good, just may need some help with how to train because a few need different things (not necessarily for the NT, but to be decent players)

Yes, he mentioned you'd been in touch & given some tips. :)

I watched a match and saw my goalie run to the edge of the box to collect the ball. I thought to myself, "he's not going to carry the ball back to the goal", then he did! Then I thought, "surely he's not going to run all the way back to where he picked up the ball..."

Almost feel off my couch. After 13 years, the GKs still do this! Haha

Yes, the game has advanced so far in that time...hah hah hah!!

I just found my old spreadsheets from 8 years ago....my blueprint on becoming a top half A League team & cup contender (well, one title)!

Shame I'll likely follow the lead of an esteemed manager here.....let's wait & see, hey?! :)

Looks like a newbie in my league....joined end May, but not logged in since. Owner: agawaflower

I've mailed them with offer to help & pointed them to the forums, etc.

Yeah I wouldn't expect too much. He is an old user but I think he has had many teams and always goes inactive pretty quick. Would be good to see him stick around with one team

I'm not sure who we "lost" but we dropped another 4 users today/yesterday.

Anyway I guess not being able to work out who it is, means it was no great loss anyway

Well that is a bit suspicious, literally the day we lose a long standing bot (which could help raise up some fanclub members in div 2), someone decides they want to join sokker and takes over the team.

I reckon we have someone trying to hurt Australia by replacing old teams with new ones

Wouldn't surprise me. Are they a manager from an Oz location? I guess you can put your location as anywhere if located in another country, so it wouldn't matter.
(editado)

Just so UBERS name does not get stained.
As he isn't coming back, I asked for a couple of players of his to be released (as they were interesting prospects when he first sent me his team).
I had noticed they had gone up in value and rating so felt maybe when he left he was on some good training for them.

Turns out it all went up because he was training stamina :(

When they released players from a team, the admins then need to "ban" them as they are technically bots. So he was never banned for doing anything wrong, just "banned" because a couple of players were getting released

This is why you will notice we have about 6 or so banned users in Aus. 5 of them have not logged in for years, and were bots, but when players were released (Such as Rayner, Morgan etc), the admins reactivate the user, log in, sell the player, then "ban" them to mark them for turning back to bot.
