Football Manager 2008-Foot.ie Network Game

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 taken

No probs

**Red&White Rover** · 05/11/2007, 9:37 PM

I reckon start as we are at the minute...with regards to the promotion/relegation.

**sligoman** · 07/11/2007, 7:32 PM

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

) 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.

**gilberto_eire** · 07/11/2007, 8:57 PM

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??....

**gustavo** · 08/11/2007, 10:44 AM

Sundays are fine with me

**harpstilidie** · 08/11/2007, 3:50 PM

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.

**jebus** · 10/11/2007, 12:57 PM

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?

**gustavo** · 10/11/2007, 1:13 PM

Did that but after about 10 seconds it takes me back to my desktop with an error message saying "Unable to connect to server"

**gustavo** · 10/11/2007, 2:41 PM

trouble shooting at the mo , might have something to do with my router settings

**DmanDmythDledge** · 10/11/2007, 4:46 PM

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.

**Aaron** · 13/11/2007, 8:26 PM

Havnt been in here in a while, was away all weekend. Anyway it seems Sunday is a favourite day amongst everyone. What times suit? What about 5pm - 9pm?

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?
