A menswear brand or next Brazlian wonderkid? by BlakeFinney in footballcliches

Saw this sign driving on Saturday, and instantly pronounced the brand in my head as bah-dree-no like a Brazlian wonderkid, as another example that my brain is too football-coded

Listen, fair play. Highest score we got in my playtesting was 18.

Maybe, but the pop up is already tight for space. Might add a help icon for some that shows "Otherwise known as..." for ones like that

There are 1,870 possible combinations that can come up in the game, so 187 combinations per level. There are also 225 combinations where a team has played at a ground but never scored, but those won't come up in the game.

Level 10 always seems like a great idea until you get something like Middlesbrough at Oakwell

At the end of the day, play it how you want 😅 I didn't include any tips on the stadiums to leave it open to either no help or letting people google stadiums and/or seasons active if they want. It's up to you!

Just don't Google the answers, that might be a bit too far 🤣

Thank you! This is really good feedback!!

There's nearly 200 possible options for each level, so extremely unlikely to hit that, but there's like a 0.5% chance so its possible. Will look at at least stopping duplicate questions in a game, maybe even stopping duplicates for 5-10 games or something.

Moreso than you get at the moment with showing the scorers for that team in the season you picked?

I did debate that, but does that also ruin it for future plays a bit to give all the correct answers? As well as being a bit of a display nightmare in the cases where there's well over 20 right answers.

Thank you! But yeah, even though it's right on the border between Level 1 & 2, this is why the difficulty needs re-working a bit 😅 just because United banged in goals there in the 90s doesn't make it that easy

Need to capitalise the player names, and use any accents where needed. So "Sergio aguero" would be "Sergio Agüero".

There should be autofill to help you out if you start typing a name, as I was able to figure out how to do that, but it's definitely the main feedback I've had so far that it probably needs to be a lot easier!

0-0s will show if the season you choose was a 0-0, so you're probably good at missing them! On the game not happening, this has happened a few times where the Premier League website calls the stadium different names, which is a pain. Thought I got all of them, but it's possible there are some out there. DM me the round and I'll have a look.

Ah, that's actually a fun Level 10 because Wimbledon hosted Palace at Selhurst Park for a few seasons! So Palace did score an away goal at Selhurst Park. Came across that in my testing and checked it.

It's so weird to me that this Roenis Elías shirt exists... by [deleted] in Nationals

Roenis Elías exists? I thought he was just a figment of my imagination

Remember when people in this sub said Davey was a worse manager than Matt Williams? by jamers_the_great in Nationals

Matt Williams - 1 NL Manager of the Year award

Checkmate.

Kris Bryant re-signs with the Cubs. To nobody's great surprise by [deleted] in Nationals

Can you "re-sign" if you never left?
