I think Paris would be a bit easier than San Marino...
 
Do we want to do a points based system like Eoin, I think, recommended...25 pts for winning the league, 15 for promotion etc etc

Or just base it on whoever finishes the third season in the highest league/position?
 
Points system means we can include cup runs so that's the way to go for me
 
Any way to get cups involved is good so I'd do the points system... gives people the chance to catch up with me if i don't get promoted :P
 
first thoughts, still needs some more looking into today...

League
10pts - Win the National League
5pts - Promoted via Play-offs from National League
-10pts - Relegated from the National League

20pts - Win Ligue 2
15pts - Promoted from Ligue 2
10pts - Avoid Relegation from Ligue 2
- 5pts Relegated from Ligue 2

50pts - Win Ligue 1
30pts - Qualify for Europ in Ligue 1
10pts - Avoid relegation in Ligue 1
-10pts - Relegated from Ligue 1


French Cup
5pts - Reach Quarter Final of French Cup
10pts - Reach Semi Final of French Cup
30pts - Runner Up in French Cup
40pts - Win the French Cup
 
Bit harsh to have more points deducted for getting relegated from Ligue 1 than from Ligue 2...
Also as it's only 3 seasons shouldn't it be worth more points to win Ligue 1?
And I'm sure there's 2 cups in France - is it the same points for both?

I have just bought FM2015 having been a longtime player of the FM (Champ) series and am looking for a new challenge. What I have realised is I miss competing with other people. I also realised I was spending more time picking my club to manage than actually playing as I wasn’t particularly motivated towards any team etc

But I realise there is a wealth of interesting challenges out there, for instance I’ve never managed outside of Europe, I just need the right push to do so.

As I play usually on the train to and from work in London and have a (very) young family I cant commit to an online game.

But I’ve come up with an idea (which I’m sure has been done loads of times before) to have a competition against other people to see how we do in when completing the same challenge and awarding points, and therefore a league table based on relative success.

I imagine a Formula 1 style leaders table with each ‘round’ a challenge with pre-determined scoring that each person undertakes.

So as an example – 10 people play, 1st​ challenge is to play a season as x random team, based on league and cup success we are ranked 1st​>10th​ with points based on position and there we have our first league table. We move onto the 2nd​ challenge etc

It’s not rocket science but think it would be good fun.

In terms of timing, I think keeping most challenges to a season or two and having perhaps 2/3 weeks to complete before we tally scores would be sufficient?

Who’s keen? I guess if we get some people keen we can start soon

Extras
??? any good ideas?
- Beat PSG in any competitive game +10pts???



 
Beating PSG bonus is fine.
Maybe unbeaten season in any of the leagues? Getting the top goalscorer?
 
Actually I'm not a fan of the extra's I dont think, let's keep it to League and Cup progress.

Do we need 2 or 3 weeks for these 3 seasons?
 
I'm not up to much for the next few weeks so I could easily do it in 2 weeks - even with the full mode which I'll probably use this time
 
Ok, 2 weeks it is. Complete on or by Wednesday 13th May.

Hi guys.
Created a user on this forum after being a long time lurker because of this thread.
Loving this idea, the game was getting a bit stale for me so would definately enjoy being a part of this challenge, if you'll have me:D
 
Burnshaw welcome on in. Let us know how you're getting on with Paris FC!

The more people we have looking to knock AW190 of his perch the better!
 
Thanks!
I am already into it. Wasnt aware the club was semi-professional, but that just makes the challenge better. Any other rules I should know of, or is it just play three seasons with Paris FC and then tally up the points?
