Sports League?

[Joe Harker]

Sounds good, but I was talking about external rules to the league, like the official commisioner (ceremonial, kind of like the FA), the number of teams, the players involved (for example, I'd love to use real players. ), etc. It's up to you, but I think some things should be decided so play can start before September.

Real life players would be hard and very time consuming to do, so sorry no real life players.

Number of teams depend on the amount of people who sign up!

I was thinking of starting play about a week from September, or arounf that time.

I don't know what official commisioner could do but it sounds like an idea.

Just a list of players you want on your team, no cap, but players, that won't effect your performance. It'd be cool for people to make their line-ups IMO.

I'd say put a cap on it, if more sign up, we could always make division 2.

He's just ceremonial, like the President or PM of the country. Hands out awards and stuff.

 

[Nuka-sama]

That reminds me, awards! We'd have MVP of course, but what else?

It would be fun to pick a team every week, but the problem i have is that people
will put all their stats on players that will actually play in matches and give the subs little

Of course we could put a cap on the number of stat points on one player (i was already planning to do this, with the limit of 100 points.)

If we get about 16 teams, then yes there would most likey be 2 divisons!

Ok, we will ask someone when the elections are over.

 

[Hitti-Litti]

Best Player, Top Goalscorer, Team of the Year and probably Best Goalkeeper or some other place.

 

[Joe Harker]

By the way i will get rough version of the rules written tonight and post them tomorrow

Nobody likes baseball here? Seems logical we'd have a baseball league as well, given that we are wedged between the United States, Canada, and the East Asian countries that also have leagues. Good opportunities for homegrown and imported players.

Hockey would also be a good choice for the country.

As such, I'd like Novoe Vladivostok to have teams in both (and I suppose soccer too, but I don't know a whole heck of a lot about it). It'd be more realistic if there were different team names for each team in each league, but I'd have to think of a name for first choice, which could possibly apply to all teams.

 

[Joe Harker]

Welcome aboard!

I said earlier we may have two (or more) sports, if other people are willing to help run that sport's matches and stats.

 

[The Yankee]

I suppose I could just call them the Патриоты - "Patriots."

 

[Nuka-sama]

Hey joe, maybe we should have a draft to kick things off?

That's why we make rules to keep it simple. 11 players, including 1 GK, with a logical amount of Defenders, Midfielders, and Strikers. You can get any player in the World, but only 1 team may control that player. The players on a team would not effect an outcome, we can use a random number generator or your system for scores.

Of course we could put a cap on the number of stat points on one player (i was already planning to do this, with the limit of 100 points.)

Does your system have a system for a better team to beat a worse team?

If we get about 16 teams, then yes there would most likey be 2 divisons!

Lower and upper or two equal divisions?

Ok, we will ask someone when the elections are over.

They have no official duties, we just name them to the position. For example, we name the Prime Minister as the Commisioner. He gets free tickets, appears at the Finals, etc.

 

[Nuka-sama]

If we do Basketball, I would run that

 

[Hitti-Litti]

Hey joe, maybe we should have a draft to kick things off?

My principles are against drafts in sports but in this case it could be good. No one could make too good players, as someone makes them for all!

But AlCosta's proposal of real players is better. I just hope that there is another way to solve those scores than random number generator.

 

[Joe Harker]

Rules!

Player stats.


Real Life Players.

You will be able to have real life players in your squad, as long as no other team has these players.

Formations.

You will be allowed any formation as long as it given in three numbers (ie you are allowed 3-5-2 or 4-4-2, but not 4-3-1-2 or 1-3-4-2)
You will always have to have a goalkeeper.


Your attack/midfield/defence rating.

You will given 225 points to spend on stat points for you attack, your midfield and your defence

eg
Team Blue.
Attack 70
Midfield 75
Defence 80



The match.

To work out possession, you take the two midfield ratings for both teams and then use a random number generator between 0 and the sum of the two ratings. If it is lower than the home teams rating, then they have possession, if it is higher than or equal to the home teams value then the away team gets possession. (ie the red team has a midfield rating of 87 and the blue team has a rating of 73. Added together they equal 160. If a random number generated between 0 and 86.9999, the home team has possession, if it comes up with 87 and above, the away team has possession.)

To work out whether a goal is scored.

The team who gets possession becomes the attackers and the one team that don’t get possession are the defenders. It works in the same way as working out possession, but you add the attacking teams attack rating and the defending teams defence rating, if the random number generated is lower than the attackers attack value then they score a goal, if it is higher or = to the attack value of the attackers then the attack is successfully defended. Either way play goes back to the midfield and the circle begins again.

This will happen 5 times a game.

Gaining stat points.

You will be able to stats points for a win or draw, which can be added to any player. You get 2 stat points to spend if you win and one stat point for a draw.

The league.

You will get 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss
If there are two or more leagues, then they will be a upper and lower league.
To work out who goes into which league at the start, then it will be done in order of the first to sign up.


This is a draft, so if anyone can make it better please tell us!

Please ask if anything is unclear!

Edit: made changes to rules so you have to give out stat points out to your attack, midfield and defence rating instead of individual players.

 

[Red Door]

Can we just get rid of stat points, they're kind of annoying to deal with. Is there no way to make a formula to just post scores, and who scored the goals?
