Ok guys the time of reckoning has arrived to crown the winner of the official FM-Base Editing World Cup for Football Manager 2010....
Each participant will be marked on 3 Categories namely-
Quality of Database
Creativity
Success of Database
Without wasting more time lets get to the results...
Creativity
As Eds-99 Editor had broken down,I decided to give the marks for Creativity myself...
The Shots---5/10
Unfortunately The Shots had not read the rules properly so this cost him in the Creativity Section but I certainly belive that if he had he would have scored higher.
Trivaldo99----7/10
Trivaldo put in a unique league structure with some basic cups,quite ordinary I think but there was not much scope to work in in such a scenario and he did well.
Will1981---8/10
Will1981 had a decent enough league structure with cups but the his beach idea put his marks up by a notch over Trivaldo,Tiraths has also acknowledegd this wonderful idea.
So Round one goes to Will but its not over yet....
Quality of Database
This category was judged by our Editing Moderator Tiraths and he has given these scores.....
The Shots- 7/10
Again,The Shots misreading of the rules has out him in a slightly worse position than the rest but Tiraths has been generous with his marks due to the amount of effort put into making a complex league structure and cups.
Will1981-8/10
Created a basic league & cup. Not a large amount of work done although love the beach idea.
Trivaldo99 - 8/10
Good to see slightly unique league/cup structures with a few super cups added in.
It seems that Trivaldo still has not made up too much ground on the leader Will and The Shots looks out of the running altogether but can any one of them spring a suprise in the final category based mostly on luck and steal the cup....
Success of Database
Again this Category was judged by me where I holidayed all three Databases until 2018 to see how successful each one was in raising the profile of Tuvalian Football and their players...
The Shots---8/10
From The Shots Database over 70 players from his Top League were playing football overseas with atleast 50 of them in Europe and all of them were from Tuvalu.His most high-profile player being the Tuvalu National Team Captian and playmaker Ati Razak who plays for Real Madrid.
Will1981---9/10
Will1981 edged The Shots as he had more players playing overseas belived to be around 90 with 60 of them in Europe.However,suprisingly his most high-profile player was an 18 year old striker who just signed a lucrative contract for 4 years with Valencia.
Trivaldo99---9/10
Trivaldo had the same number of players playing overseas as Will1981,maybe slightly more as his was around 100 but sadly not enoguh for me to award full marks...his most High-Profile player was Tunku Guan who signed a 3-year contract with AC Milan.
So the winner of the official FM-Base Editing World Cup is Will1981 followed by Trivaldo and The Shots.
It was quite a battle but ultimately the trophy went on mostly luck although it was 3 fantastic Databases I saw and I hope we can get more participants for the FM11 Editing World Cup where Will1981 will be back hopefully to defend his crown.
Alcaraz out!
