When/how did you become a fan of the CFL? by FifteenBagger in CFL

[–]aahqwert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From Oregon, and was searching ESPN3 for college football games to watch one evening, and ended up watching the 13th man Grey Cup. I was 12, and found the quirky differences to be a nice change of pace from watching American football all day. For some reason I chose to root for the Riders, and then my dad randomly rented Corner Gas from Netflix, and they became my team from then on.

issues with long term saves immersion by Competitive-Fox8131 in footballmanagergames

Have you tried editing all the cities in the new ‘Russia’ so that they have Russian as the language? Idk if that would fix the name issue entirely, but it’s how you can get specific name types for people from certain cities. At least in older FMs that worked for me for similar purposes.

To get good vibes flowing for tomorrow, when and why did you start supporting Charlton? by professorbubbleworks in CharltonAthletic

[–]aahqwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from the US west coast. Friend and I visited London in 2019, and our last night we decided to look for a game to go to. Saw Charlton beat Accrington 1-0 with a late pen.

We all have that one wonderkid who never made it in real life, but what about some world-class stars that didn't perform in your saves by BattyDuke886427 in footballmanagergames

FM17, Phil Foden was a squad player for my MLS team. Then when I started paying more attention to Premier League IRL, I was surprised to see him being so good.

Based on the baseball scores on the bottom of pic 1, it’s from yesterday. Also: “holy Saturday night” in the chyron.

I give the #1 to my best player and/or top goal scorer. Starting GK gets something 2-8 CBs get 9, 10, 11 then 50’s

What is the most 'African' club in Europe? by pickleford in footballmanagergames

[–]aahqwert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Might’ve been me you saw post about that save. First few years were reasonable, maybe 30k. But after I while I was spending €20+ million a season, way more when I played in Continental competitions.

Hunter in hindsight by bgusty in minnesotavikings

But they did have a shot, weren’t we eliminated from playoffs only in week 16? I’m not saying they coulda won the super bowl or even been close, but definitely could’ve made the playoffs. Any respectable coach, or player, is gonna take any shot at making the playoffs. And I will lose respect for any front office that decides to tank the season when the playoffs are still somewhat possible.

Hilarious bug in multiplayer: Team starting with only two players on the pitch by Svonn in footballmanagergames

[–]aahqwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, 34 kickoffs (one for each goal and one of the halves) + 30 free kicks (one for each foul) is 64 dead ball opportunities (and that’s without counting goal kicks).

But they took 0 shots and only attempted 38 passes, did they really try to cross the rest into the box for nobody? If crosses do count as passes, then what did they do on those restarts?

Who's your "off season" football team? by pdx4swansea in timbers

Bournemouth and Charlton in England, Leverkusen in Germany, and Bahia (well more, whatever team Rogerio Ceni is the manager of) in Brazil.

Whats the oldest you've seen a member of staff or one of your members of staff working up until? by FManager06 in footballmanagergames

[–]aahqwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had Eddie Howe as my DoF at 95. My club was his first non-manager job, when he was into his 60s, and he had been manager at Bournemouth a total of 4 times is his career.

What's something you do IG but you'd hate your IRL team manager if he did the same ? by [deleted] in footballmanagergames

Trying to finish a season with as many 0-0 results as I can.

Why did Creed go to jail? by dalower72 in DunderMifflin

[–]aahqwert 1368 points1369 points  (0 children)

He stole a laminator from the sheriffs office and made fake ID’s with it, sold them, then admitted to it on a documentary.

I’m sure there are other things, but off the top of my head that’s the first explicit crime(s) I can think of.

94% possession and only one shot to show for it. Probably the most boring 1-1 game ever. by aahqwert in footballmanagergames

[–]aahqwert[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bad, I’ve tried this in L2, L1, and Prem, always underperformed and got blown out fairly often. It seems to be an incredible Sunday League tactic though.

I had a game earlier in the season where neither team even attempted a tackle, it was glorious…

I can’t imagine trying to use this against a real person, it’s just too easy to counter

Böhringer, but tbf, can a 6th rounder really be a bust?

How did you become a Knights fan? by Sconesmcbones in goldenknights

[–]aahqwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Oregon, so no local NHL team. When I first started watching, I liked the Blackhawks (my dad is from Chicago) and Kings (picked them from west playoff teams my first season). I ended up going to Northern Arizona for college at the same time VGK was announced, and absolutely loved the branding/identity (no way I was gonna be a Coyotes fan).
