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

Again, @Albionicasked me a good question a D I want to give the answer to all as it may be useful.

I looked at my map, and am I allowed to go through other countries which are not playable (eg Switzerland)?

 

Answear: No, not allowed to go through countries that are not playable in the game. You are allowed to travel through Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, Denmark and Poland.

You CAN travel from Germany to France through  Belgium (or Holland) even if you don't have Belgium loaded. (maybe usefull for @geordiekrispy at the moment) 

You CAN'T travel through Luxembourg as this is not playable in the game. 

You CAN travel through Andorra because FC Andorra play in Spain, therefore I will consider Andorra as a whole part of Spain (maybe usefull for @JamesVilla and @TheBluePrince at the moment). 

 

 

If that's the case then I might have to adjust my plans... Not that I can ever really plan as I have no idea how my team are going to perform...

 

But are you saying that I couldn't go from Hamburger SV to Auxerre, for example as it goes through Luxembourg?

Exactly! You are not allowed to put your feet on non playable countries. 

Is just a small bit, I can help you to change the travel route on that, it may add 5 miles or so.

To whom it may concern: Grenoble is not available to select in your profile under 'currently managing.' 

I think I found it, check GF 38 in the list, it may be Grenoble

So I have finished the season and sent my results in. 

But in the meantime, I have some fantastic news to announce. 

We have official left Porto, and Portugal completely and moved into Spain. 

Madrid to be precise.

Now for the miles;

Screenshot_20210217-201723_Maps.thumb.jpg.e90cb2e17d64339465c8b314c9ecd28a.jpg

As you can see it is 321 miles from Porto to Madrid. A hell of a lot. Overally, after season 3 I had amassed 326 so just 5 miles over what I wanted. 

Luckily, I have joined after the final league game in both countries so will have a whole summer transfer window to sort my players out which I will post as soon as I know them 😂

Hell of a jump. I got panicked seeing people moving and gave up almost half my miles. Now I feel like an idiot 😂

Congrats mate

Cheers mate. After looking at my route, Madrid was always my first choice for my next club, it was just whether I could get enough miles & if the job was available. Thankfully both of them aligned at the same time!

Hell of a jump on a giant club... this must be the luckyest move on this game until the end of it. 

Here, I found this on my phone, is your next move 😂

This morning I got the last results... except Prince, and I'm sure that most of us share the same feelings that he will not turn on this week either. 

I will post the results tomorrow evening and the bonus will be posted on Saturday morning... @Rich's morning aka you never know 😂

In the previous two seasons I did the write up in the order of how you finished your seasons, this time I will go by the order of how you moved… so I will still start with… me, again 🤣


I have already whine about how bad the situation is to Girona so I’ll skip to the remaining games, I got 28 miles and finished 4th, losing on purpose the play-off final. 0 points also this year… and I was in the cup final at Zaragoza, a good run in league and Europa League. 😭

He had 12 goals before

Bonus, 1 goal

Second to get a move was @geordiekrispy and he got a good one, 3rd place in the Bundesliga. And he got 2 trophies, one from FC Copenhagen and one from Hamburg. Is a transition seasons but he still managed to get 25 miles out of his new boys, not good, not bad. It would be nice to see how the next season will develop in front of big Bayern.


@Kanegan did not like the new rivalry with Geordie in Germany so he went west to a more friendly league, taking charge of Standard Liege in Belgium. And it may be the only one who will manage there so that can get him 2 points at the end of the game, good move. And in fact, is even better, 20 games got him a staggering 51 miles so be sure that next season he will get 100+, hear that @broodje kip? I just made my first prediction.

Next to move was @Albionic and he basically played 3rd season for nothing, got 95 miles for nothing because he already had the miles for this move since last season… now he will manage Fiorentina. Spoiler, he got himself a big fat “cheque” for this season, so it wasn’t really for nothing. Oh, and he won 4 trophies.

I did predict that Kane will be the first to travel to France and I didn’t get that right, the first one was @Chris with 171 miles move to Lille. 171 miles trip is ok but this was a panic move because se just blew away 129 miles!! To put this into perspective, Lille to Paris is about 140 miles. No problem Chris, this is the beauty of the game, you still have plenty of time to win this one, this is just the first move. And you got already 51 miles in the bag and Ajax stint got you a lot of trophies points, 2 only this season alone.


Now, one dramatic move was @hhooo’s trip from Atalanta (3 trophies this season alone), Champions League holders, to relegation battle in France’s second division, Grenoble Foot. He managed to keep them afloat jumping from 18th place in late January to 7th place at the end of the season conceding only 10 goals in 14 league matches. Well done sir, well done. The boys got him 21 miles and hope that he can build on for the next season.

hhooo_after.thumb.jpg.51f5d1f75083e60a00760f9c62250e5c.jpg

 

hhooo’s trip was quite a long walk, 275 miles… there is a saying, save the best for last and the last to move was @JamesVilla with a whooping 321 miles trip to Real Madrid. He already promised @Rich a bottle of wine to help him with the next season bonus… he should give the wine bottle to Rich anyway because Rich was Villa's “best scorer” with 45 goals. And this is the second season when Villa gets the most out of Rich’s bonus so maybe he should buy him whole crate with 10-20 bottles.

The season bonus is rigged

Spoiler

And in fact, last to submit was not Villa but @TheBluePrince… no, I’m joking, Prince didn’t showed up so is bye-bye!

 

Miles and trophies have been “distributed” now let us see the season bonuses.
1. Most expensive player sold. @hhooo and @Chris sold each a player of 50+M…. the tie breaker is… no tie breaker, @Albionic just blew this out of water this season.

Spoiler

transfer.thumb.png.49f710bcf8a48df57b4ce6722ab287b6.png


2. Most league points. @Albionic again, 2 bonus points already.

Spoiler

league_points.thumb.png.341ab4e783822520687a57182aa23ae7.png

 

3. Biggest win (margin). I want to clarify something here, the rules are that if more players are on tie, they will all get a point each so no tie breaker and even that this week is a little weird, I think I will leave it like this… so, this week winner is the boys band “The England flag boys” aka @geordiekrispy, @Chris and @Albionic.

win3.thumb.png.f0bf0bca94e1538414903ccd9128164b.png

 

4. Highest scoring draw. I retain this one again… but I will share it with @Kanegan. See Kane, we both got 1 point this week :D

Spoiler

draw.thumb.jpg.c4837ec9bf845e69789749564867c963.jpg

 

5. Least league goals conceded. @JamesVilla up again on this one, this time with a more down to earth numbers.

Spoiler

Because we all moved I will put here what clubs are “owned”. To use these clubs you must pay the owner first. The “tax” is 25 miles.

Spoiler

George Traista: Zaragoza, Girona
Kanegan: Paderborn, Standard Liege
geordiekrispy: FC Copenhagen, Hamburg
hhooo: Atalanta, Greoble
Chris: Ajax, Lille    
JamesVilla: FC Porto, Real Madrid
Albionic: AS Roma, Fiorentina

 

5 out of 7 moved mid season, that means you have 3 calendar years to accumulate miles and get trophy points. I will keep track of these, and you will get a message from me when you enter in your 3rd year to remind you what is your “expiration” date.

 

The board

Map.thumb.jpg.03452864ecaa3e941cdf4e3ff5a40198.jpg

Now, I don’t want to be dramatic but WTF Kane, we are last by a lot!! We need to step up! Put Cordova to work, shave it bald if you need to and let’s bag some trophies.
I don’t want to panic v0.2 but Villa got a job to Real, a team that will get him more trophies and he is already way ahead, does anybody knows to to do voodoo?

 

Rich's bonus will come later today or tomorrow morning... let's hope he will remember it, not sure how much wine Villa sent to him!

The deadline will be Saturday, 27 February, 10:00 AM GMT


I usually tell “bad luck” to everyone, this time I wish you all good luck… except Villa, I hope you got sacked!

Well done everyone, especially @JamesVilla, the wine was lovely😂

Also before anyway says, it is not rigged, he just used the bonuses to his advantage. 
 

I will post the bonus at 9 😁

It was a cracking season. I had soooooo many players natural CB by the end of the season, for a run of 7/8 games, every goal scored counted as a mile. I will put some screenshots up of non CB players who goals counted soon.

Great write up George, and I feel my decision to stay has been vindicated by the bonus points! 

I had one goal from the season bonus 😂

If this new bonus works for my team aswell, I'll send you a box of wine rather than just a bottle! 😂😂 To be honest, clean sheets was made for Porto. Big team, small league. 

Natural CB was a bit tough, i had retrained a few players but it wasn't untill January when I realised I wasn't going to get the miles needed with just my strikers than I switch it round abit to get as many goals as a team as possible.

On Zaragoza I only retrained 3 players (bought them on purpose for the bonus) and they were the subs for my 3 players, worked perfectly...

If the new bonus will work the same for you, I will kill Rich!

The thing is that if you have a better team you will get always the best out of the bonus, logically!

Every sub I made, after Jan was for a player whos goals counted. CB played TM, Full backs played in the wing etc. Made for some unhappy players and some low ratings but goals are goals 😂

Next bonus will be for every million you spend on wages or salary, minus one mile at the end of the season, right @Rich????

 

I wish I could've played out the second half of the season to see my final tally for the bonus at Atalanta, I would've given you a run for your money, James. Mctominay up front was a lovely substitute!

First question, I am passed may 31 in my save - and have sold some players at the end of the season because contracts end early down here in the second division. 

Also, do you want the transfer net spend, or finances page? If it's finances, should the slider be to the left or the right?

Edit: I have screenshots of the individual emails from the sales, that should be good enough, right?

So. You will all be please to know, especially you @George Traistă, I am not even bothering with the bonus this year. I have splashed the cash BIG time on my three players;

£20m + Paul Pogba who was already at the club.

Now for the final one, who, before I had signed I was considering selling some big names for the bonus miles, but as you will see. It won't make any difference who I sell 😂

Finances is this page, it shows you how much you got from sales and how much you spent. 

The June-August transfer window will most definitely show also after your New season screen
