Subject: [DEV] International Cup

It looks nice, we have 6 more games to play, maximum ;)

What position did my team finish in in my group, given that I finished 2nd on goal difference? The 1st place spot is already up for grabs, and the other teams earned very few points and I think they'll be relegated.

I was very unlucky, getting the best team that finished on second place :(
But we will do our best...

do we split the money from tickets from knock-out games? :) ofc not this season cos its arcade. But next season
(edited)

Yes. Money will be divided 50/50.

What a stupid competition.
Why the hell didn't you just copy the UEFA competitions, at least the format not the rating system.
What is this? Another league but international? What's the point in national leagues and cups then?

pitch type Semi-professional buffallo grass, bought in local garden shop.

pitch condition 40% weak

My last opponent pitch... just wait when it gets serious next season.

What's the point in national leagues and cups then?

To.....win them?

And reward is?

Glory and fame? What do you even mean? :o) When you win, you win. Goal accomplished. End of story. Ah yes, there's a trophy also.

And in next season there will be money reward.

Those who needs money will not get it because they will play om smaller stadiums with low spectators numbs, rich clubs will be richer by sharing H/A incomes etc.

If you ignore IC, then it is rather pointless. Like explaining there is nothing what connects this sort of cup with reality, or at least something we can relate to.
I know there was lot of football fans protesting over Superleague before it started because obvious reasons.
I was in league with 2 polish teams, there are leagues with 3 or even all 4 clubs from same country! :) It was less international, as I expected. And if I can rate my emotions participating, was something like 2/10.

I guess it depends on how you look at things. National league and national cup aren't linked - you participate in both just by having a team. Same thing happens now with IC. Only difference is you play against teams from whole Sokker World. I understand your view, but in my opinion things don't always have to be connected and equal to real life.

Anyways, it's the original comment about "what's the point in national leagues and cups" I objected to. For many years, there were no international cup in Sokker at all, and people had no problem in having fun just by competing in national leagues and cups.

We advance to Division 2, cup 2.
Hard group... All old teams, old managers and high value teams.

Now we play against redemption team.
Strong team as well.

Good luck to you all.

We had 4 league levels, 150+ users, and 2 games/week back then. And I was ~25yo... ofc it was fun! :)
