People, I was thinking should we start the game after the promotion/relegation has been decided, so that we can start with what will be next season? Or do you wish to start ASAP?

I'll stick with UCD until we get at least 2 more 1st Division clubs takenQuote:

How many teams are we waiting on before we get started?
Also ctid, if we all need the same database(or whatever it's called:o) can you put up the link to what one we should all have downloaded? Also, a link to downloading kits etc. Thanks
Do you have an idea what times you will do it? I can't do midweek but might be able to do weekend if the time suits.
i think everybody will have problems making week days at certain intervals
personally i play footie mon=9-10, tue=8-10, thurs=8-9..... also time to get there and back adds on an hour or so.
guitar wednesday(for 2 more weeks at least) 8-9.
thats just me and you can be sure everyone else will have bits and bobs here and there.
just taught then after dman' said he cant do weekdays that maybe sundays would be best for everyone or at least the majority??....
Sundays are fine with me
Sunday is dodgy for me. I would be available some sundays but not others so not too sure. If its awkward me being harps I'll change if you want.
Sundays and Mondays would be best for me. To be honest I don't know how the online system works though, what happens if we call it for say Sunday and one particular sunday one or two of us can't make it?
yea its a balls really
I'm free all afternoon if anyone wants to do a trial version for the craic , I can host it
I'm around til around 17:20 today if ya get people gus. Be back again around 6ish.
sound ill try it now so , http://download.sega.com/u/fm2008_pa..._betapatch.exe if you dont have the latest patch get it there
the I.P addess is 86.40.100.72 if anyone wants to join
Done, what next?Quote:

You have to set up a network so everyone can be connected to each other. Download hamachi from here- [COLOR=#0000ff]http://www.hamachi.cc/download/list.php[/COLOR] Whoever is hosting the game should set up the network. Also the option to move games for TV should be unchecked so everyone can play their games at the same time.
Then there are on holiday I think.Quote:

I'm currently uploading my update for the EL. I'll post it here later with details on where to put it. Also has everyone downloaded the badge and kit packs made?
OK lads here is the EL update. Now obviously it isnt 100% perfect but it has all the main issues sorted.
When you have downloaded, just right click, extract file and extract it to MyDocuments/SportsInteractive/FootballManager2008/db.
Then when you start the game up, when starting a new season, select EL update from the drop down bar.

That time is grand. HAve the badges and kits as well btw.
You get the update above?Quote:

are we waiting til every team is filled? Because i'm not sure we'll get much more...
Shall we just go ahead and start on Sunday and if anyone wants to join they can do so? We'll just start without them? So Sunday 5-9pm?
Has everyone got my update? You must install it so we are all using the same db.
Dman, we are going to do it on Sunday from 5pm - 9pm? Is that OK? Do you want to pick a team thats free.Quote:
