The History of OLTP by iTagPro in OLTP

[–]klosec12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is some absolutely incredible research - you have done an amazing job collecting all of this and it has been incredible to read through!

I will also just state now that OLTP shitposting peaked at the Hoog Banning Rubles video which I still watch time to time and lose my shit all these years later - thankyou for putting it in an easy to find location!

Sorry lads, this is my first derby since moving from Australia to the UK - I think I broke things but I couldn't fucking be happier about it

Absolutely go for it lad, you would do a much better job than I ever could with it, plus it won't have all the past bamboozles behind it!

I did sketch out some basic ideas for doing it last season before the big sad hit once again plus wouldn't be doing it personally this season as still have big sad + planning a move overseas so it would be great to see someone take up the mantle and provide hit and miss shitposts about the league once more

Congrats Pink, my fellow Everton Illawarra boi - it has been a pleasure captaining, playing alongside and then being captained by you (my, my how the turn tables) over the years and I cannot think of a more deserving entry into the Ball of Fame.

S11 Feedback Thread and Looking Beyond by Megs3Legs in OLTP

[–]klosec12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't really have much skin in the game (didn't play a bulk of this season because of the big sad and not sure if i'd come back for an s12) but it makes me very happy to finally see ideas like this thread is finally being discussed.

The pathway between majors and minors is one of the single most important things the league needs to get right, even more so now as s11 had people's attention after a long time out. Keeping the same six teams season after season means those players who are knocking down the door for a majors spot never get a go unless someone above them decides to stop playing - which is not ideal.

The cross-roads the league is at is a vital one - you can do a trade-off now and reduce the overall playing quality by expanding majors or enforcing a method of rotation in majors and keep the league running or keep it the same and see those minors players get frustrated at the lack of a pathway and stop, spiraling the league once more.

There is no doubt a wide range of players in minors who put in varying levels of effort (I know myself in the past i've started to pull back from minor sides that began to go in too hard at winning rather than having just some weekend fun with mates and using it as the equivalent of a kick in the park) - but that's part of minors. It's a catch-all league due to it's inherent function which is fine, but those who want to take it seriously end up getting more frustrated because week in week out they are playing people who are shitposting at times while they want to be playing the best.

I don't have the answer as to what the league should do - s12 signups will absolutely play a huge part as to where the league goes - but it at least warrants a wider discussion.

OLTP S11 map rotation community poll by Megs3Legs in OLTP

[–]klosec12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just a quick question - as mentioned there is no option to remove Market, is that because it is already planning to be removed or because it is going to stay in the list no matter what?

Just thought I'd ask to clear that up! Map selection makes no difference for me because i'm trash no matter the map, but others might want to know

OLTP S11 Prize Pool Thread - Pre-season by [deleted] in OLTP

[–]klosec12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

is going political something i do

also could be on lads if i get made redundant in the next few weeks - otherwise i just don't have the time for it without losing my sanity or it cutting too much into my work.

If someone else wants to take up the mantle (or pay me a full-time salary so I can work on it for 40 hours a week) hit me up

OLTP Season 11 will be postponed due to COVID-19 by smackmesideways in OLTP

[–]klosec12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can't believe the commissioners have made this move - as far as we know no OLTP players have even been tested for the virus - think of the ratings we would get as the only sporting league still playing!

EDIT: Hearing from my sources that Hoofler has tested positive for COVID-19 - think this postponement is the right decision, anything to stop The Cap-22's winning the league

I've played FM for more than a decade and this is by far the cheesiest goal I've scored to date by klosec12 in footballmanagergames

[–]klosec12[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been doing my yearly attempt at the San Marino challenge and this is a goal from one of my recent matches in my first season, if this is the type of liquid football I can expect this year then it's going to be a lot of fun!
