Fun/Games Goal-a-Mile: Ticket to Ride - Europe (COMPLETED)


Recommended Posts

So before I get started naming my goal getters, can I just say...

I miss my young wonderkids who are on a tiny wage! This OL team is full of aging plyares who are all wanting to retire at the end of their contract (in two seasons time!) and anyone who I want to get rid of who isn't thinking of retiring is on a massive wage so nobody wants to buy them... I'm talking over 100k for most of the team. It amuses me that the nickname for OL is "the kids" as these are not kids, most of the team is over 30.

 

Right so, now I've got that off my chest here are my proposed goal getters:

And my bonus guy:

Yes my goal getters are 3 new players I brought in over the festive break. Quite frankly I understand why they're struggling to score as they've only got 1 good striker and some good wingers, plus a few good defensive midfielders. But hardly anyone has any creativity so nobody is making their goals for them.

The AI is disastrous at squad building and management. That's the number one thing I would like to see improved in game. Things are so easy after a few years because most ai teams are full of terrible 34 year olds on ridiculous wages who have 3 stamina or something, but still expect to start every game.

The same was when I've managed Lyon, they had a lot of old players but at least they also had few good players. The further away you are in the game the older and broken is the team as the AI is stupid af. 

I can confirm that I have received the results from @geordiekrispy and he got much more than needed for the trip.

Looking at the map, you are going zig zag (wooble), you started drinking? 🤣

Well I've been to Germany, Belgium and France... So it's definitely plausible!

Yeah I’m late and currently steamrolling through the season. I can surely finish the season in 2/3 hours more but I got some interesting news to show.

Firstly, my former club Nancy wanted to get me back after their previous manager failed to live up to the expectation. I was 1st at that time and it seems like the board regretted theur decision to sack me 2 seasons ago.

My chosen striker left due to release clause. He was valued £12.5M when he left so here is his replacement:

Not quite an upgrade but he’s still developing. Giunta was maxed out surprisingly especially the fact that he’s still only 22!

This would be my 4th miler. He used to play for me while he was at Nancy. Brought him to Toulouse on loan last season and bought him permanently this season. I will bring him to Valencia/Levante if I got the money.

Halfway through my season and one guy has been replaced;

Release fee met. Replaced with Gouri who was already at the club & had been covering Piccoli for his long term injury (George can confirm the injury)

Yep, a nice 7 months injury! 

I got the results from everybody and I will try to do the write up later today, like real later, 11 pm or even midnight

Wait, nevermind, I had it saved in my ICloud saves

 

How many miles do I have again?

Im afraid because you missed two weeks on the bounce, you were removed from the game. 

Maybe you can join in the next one, providing you feel you can commit to a long-term based game :)

Don't trust him @TheBluePrince, he is just afraid he might lose in your favour 🤣

I'm joking, the rules states that you are out if you miss two seasons in row.

Season 11 is over and I kind of like it that I get fewer screenshots... and it can be slightly fewer, Kipy and Albionic sent me the biggest transfer and highest draw screenshots for this season also, no need boys, those two bonuses are history!

@geordiekrispy made a trip this season and for the first time we had a pay up, 25 miles to @Chelseaplchamps2022 for using Lyon. Not like he can do something with those but is nice to see that this "feature" was used... maybe for later edition of the games we can change this rule. Before his move, Geordie got 2 trophies in Lens and then another one in Lyon, the French Cup... no chance for him to win the league, the squad he left at Lens killed Ligue 1.  Also at Lyon he got 66 miles, a promising start!

geordie.thumb.png.9d1ff655965896f82bd7c346d9a1d3ae.png

@Albionic had a good season in Freiburg, his first in the Bundesliga, 3rd place finish and won the Cup, so one point. As for the miles, only 71 miles... you can do better than this, remember, 95 is the magic number for you :D

@broodje kip had the "probably the most entertaining season so far" and a clean sweep, 4 trophies and 124 miles, good numbers! But the biggest number of miles got @JamesVilla, 134, and like Kipy, he god 4 trophies... not a clean sweep, he didn't win the Champions League.

To say a word about @Rich's bonus, this one was a small one, Villa got the most of it with 26 goals from his 4th miler, all other players got 15-20 goals.

Ah, and it looks like also the write ups are smaller now with only 4 players left.

 

Now, the chopped version of Season Bonuses! As you know, the Biggest transfer fee was removed by @hhooo and the highest scoring draw was removed by @Chelseaplchamps2022.

 
1. Most league points, @JamesVilla had a small advantage on this one, enough to grab the point from @broodje kip.

Spoiler

46838304_pointsgoals.thumb.jpg.85ce62df443aab06ab04ad3e800992f6.jpg

 

2. Biggest win (margin). 3 out of 4 players got this one, @Albionic being the only one missing out on this by only one goal.
 

Spoiler

3. Least league goals conceded. the same screenshot from the first bonus applies also here, @JamesVilla stole the crown from @geordiekrispy. Geordie had to move clubs this season so be sure he will fight for this next season!

Owned Clubs

I won't post the status for the career bonuses, I didn't post it last season also, to get a bigger surprise at the end of the game!

 

Expiration Date

@Albionic "must" move this season as he can only get miles/trophies until 16th October 2031. @broodje kip also will have to move this season but later on, 29th March 2032.

 

The Board

Map.thumb.jpg.961020fa12862a9f8f17a703108983a8.jpg

This looks so nice now and by the length of their journey so far you can tell that all the players are close to the finish line, I wonder who will be the next one. hhooo and Chelsea are still on top and is normal to be like that. Villa had a huge jump this season with 7 points closing the gap on Geordie. Albionic and Kipy are on the back but you will never know what stunt they can make.

Deadline: one week from now aka Fridayday, 14th may, 10PM GMT

I wish all the remaining players bad luck!

Bonus Alert

All remaining players must make a prediction on the other players remaining and if the prediction is correct they get 20 miles, but if incorrect it’s -10 miles for the bank. Hope that explains it, I have had a little tipple so blame the bottle.

This bonus is a cool one but tricky as some players will need the miles mid season 🤣 So think twice before you make your predictions boys!!

Also, to make sure everyone understand it, all players must make 4 predictions, one for each of every player left in the game (so also one for himself): @JamesVilla, @broodje kip, @Albionic and @geordiekrispy

If you need any info about other players that you think may help you do the correct predictions, just send me a message!

So, just to get it clear. I've got to make a prediction for all players left, including myself?

As it's a bonus, we're doing it here rather than a private message right?

You're definitely going to want to pm the prediction so other players don't see them and try to screw your results

Exactly what I was going to say.

@George Traistă did say in his last message in here to PM him your predictions.

Offered me when the new season had just started. Sort of. The French league has but not the Spanish one.

A whooping 381 miles travel there but no worries as we got like 422 miles or something at the time. So here’s the lads chosen:

My 4th miler from last season will now be our main guy.
