Can you point me in the direction of the FOFC Federation in Hattrick? I just bought Supporter the other day and want in. ;)
HornedFrog Purple
01-24-2003, 03:59 PM
Sure, type in "office", or "front office" in the search fed box.
It should be called Front Office Football Community. Just fill out an app (there are no requirements for us, its just the way hattrick does it) and I will approve it and you'll be all set. Right now the conference is kinda dead because everything about the cup is over here.
Which reminds me if they cant get the Cup thread over here, I guess I will start a new one.

Interseting players names on NevStar's team.
Abhinav Tandon-USA
Victoro Sifres Belenguer-USA (Must have been fun to write that name out when he was in school.);)
NevStar could you tell me the ratings on that Richard Stewart. I mean damn he's only 20, and he is worht that much. You lucked out with him. When I started I had about 3 guys over $100,000.
Oh and if you haven't done it already change your youth team to $20,000 a week.

Well I just figured out what you guys were talking about, its not in the standard display. I found the member #'s in the old FOFC style display. Sorry I am slow....
Really its not that important, it was just a method ardent used to seed everyone for FOFC Cup I We didnt have anything to seed teams with thats all, so I just kept it going as new teams kept joining.
RPI and NevStar youre all set.

I've been convinced to give this a shot as well.

I am not a supporter yet, it will depend on how I feel after giving it a try for a little while.

I haven't seen him sound off here yet, but it looks like QuikSand has joined our merry little band of Hattrick team owners. I only noticed because he bid on one of my players. :)
Chesapeake Cheapshots (71318)
I can only assume that it's him. He even spelled it QuikSand (no 'c').

I searched for European club logos online and found one I liked and simply made some small changes in Photoshop. It's pretty easy. The hardest part is finding webspace because your logo must be online, but then again, even that isn't all that hard.

Bumpy, wumpy.
My team is coming together nicely after picking up a 20-YO passable keeper last night for $105,000. A couple more young but cheap backups and I've got 22 decent guys on my team.
Currently 7-0-1 in my league and solidly in first. Nice getting a team already in first, although goal difference is keeping me fairly well out of promotion territory (probably for the best, this team isn't ready).

The key is getting a player named Jerome Bettis though. =-)

After last seasons debacle, the West Henrietta FC is now unbeaten in five league matches and has moved into third place in V.53. My team is finally beginning to come together.

Hopefully you will come back to the sane side, I fixed it. :)
Alf Trickers just made a purchase in the insane Sverige market :
Welcome Christer Ivarsson
27 000 Euro, 18 years, passable form
Has disastrous experience and inadequate leadership abilities
Stamina: inadequate Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: inadequate Passing: poor
Winger: weak Defending: inadequate
Scoring: poor Set Pieces: passable
Got him for 8001 euros - inadequate in playmaking + stamina + defending !!!

It's even more fun when you tinker with teams that doesn't use US denominations. Like ones that have a 40X multipliers. *shudder*
Nice pick up, Alf! Lots of directions you can go with him. :)

Wish me luck guys, the previous owner left the team in shambles.

Welcome, Splittie. :)
Since you are an accomplished dynasty writer, might I suggest starting a Hattrick one of your own? Besides perusing the various Hattrick dynasties and threads, you'll often be able to get suggestions and answers specific to your situations in there.
And, uhh, definitely check out the various start-up suggestions on the board. :)

"Friendly" matches occur on Wednesday (that's when we have our various FOFC Cup matches), and league matches are on Sundays.

Hey Afoci,
Just sent you a challange for next week (look under your challenges). I just got my team, so it should be 'interesting'. Of course you are a whole series above me (making excuses just in case ...)
I am fielding competition for a home game at North County. Feel free to challenge. First come, first serve. In the meanwhile, I will be searching Canada for competition.

02-19-2003, 10:38 PM
Hey, ardent (or whomever), how long to get youth squad from inadequate to passable? I would think it would take weeks and weeka, but I HOPE less.
I don't have a definitive answer, but passable doesn't take too entirely long to reach. I had it last season in my first full season.
I'm already at passable, and I just started hattrick on Dec. 30
daedalus
02-20-2003, 12:38 AM
Very logically, I believe they made it a reasonable amount of time to reach PASSABLE in youth squad. Going from PASSABLE->SOLID seems to take a fair bit longer and going from SOLID->EXCELLENT definitely takes a time. Makes sense since it allows team to be able to survive on their own after not too long. I like their system.
I'm not sure but I think it goes like this:
disastrous/wretched to passable: half a season
passable to solid: half a season
solid to excellent: 1 full season
Easy Mac
02-20-2003, 09:58 AM
Whoever needs a friendly for next week let me know, I'm up for a challenge.
mrushh
02-23-2003, 01:34 AM
Well, I made Passable in youth squad last night. It took 3 weeks to go from making Inadequate to making Passable.
Too bad my players don't go up that fast...or at all. I have trained Playmaking every week and have had a grand total of ONE player with an increase.
mrushh
02-23-2003, 01:42 AM
Speaking of increases or, in this case, decreases, what is the deal with form? I have many players going down in form every week, many more than go up, it seems. I have 6 wins in a row, at least until I play a good team tomorrow, and still they drop like the plague.
I guess I could read the manual for insight maybe, but I prefer my FOFC/Hattrick bretheren, as y'all usually know what;s up on any questions I ever have.
mrushh
02-23-2003, 01:49 AM
double dola
Another thing... I have finally sold players to get the bucks to upgrade my stadium. If I have about 630 supporters who are temporarily, at least, high on life/delirious, how many seats should I have total, approx...generally speaking.
mrushh
02-23-2003, 01:52 AM
triple dola...
You know what I like... I like having a Wingback for sale whose value is, like 45k, but he is the only passable/passable wingback on transfer for any day at that time (defend/winger). Then 3 teams start bidding for him, and I end up getting 150,000 or so for him. Now THAT is my kind of sale.
daedalus
02-23-2003, 02:39 AM
Oh, you dola slut. :)
Woohoo! Congrats on good sell. :)
Form is semi-randomish. Every week, 2/3 of your teams apparently get selected to have their form be modified. Some notes I've read have said training general doesn't really help but I felt like it helped me (I trained general for a couple of weeks to normalize the form after a fair stint training stamina).
As far as stadium goes, from what I read from DK's and horned the toad's posts, it seems to be 17X-to-25X your supporter club size. Depending on your rate of success. If you are having solid consistent success, you might consider the higher end since the club should be able to grow to fill it.
Have you double checked to make sure your coach is passable (or at least in that neighborhood)? That might effect your training. Also if you have a prospect you really want to improve, you might consider playing them in both friendly and league. More experience is a GoodThing[tm]. :)
mrushh
02-23-2003, 01:47 PM
Playing twice in a week gives better boost? I thought once a week was same as twice a week, as long as you play in a game.
daedalus
02-23-2003, 07:09 PM
Here's what I read and how I understand it . . .
An International friendly gives about a fifth of the experience that a league match gives - and a friendly within your own country gives about half as much as an International friendly.
Each game a player play earns him some experience points (say, 10XP for a league game and 1XP for a domestic friendly). The more game, the more experience earned.
As far as what position you earn the experience on, it doesn't matter if you played one game or both. Only the last game played count for whether or not your player earned the XP, based on position.
Again, I could be wrong here (see: the discussion on forwards in the General section of the forum). But that's how I'm understanding it. :)
I agree with you on this one. It's also one of the reasons I like to keep one keeper: More experience.
FrogMan
02-23-2003, 07:20 PM
Well guys, you got me! I lurked around in here for a couple of months, kept reading about Hattrick this and Hattrick that, so much so that I had to check it out and now I'm hooked!!!
Please welcome the Pintendre Pittbulls (108238), currently dead last in division IV in Canada, now certain to be demoted to division V.
I got my team last Tuesday and have bought a few players, signed a few coaches and assistants, read a lot (from people around here, thanks!) and even though the Pittbulls just won their first league game 4-3, I just realized that with my 3 points (was a big fat zero when I got the team) and only three games left, I CAN'T reach the 6th team in my league. Inevitably, my team will be relegated to division V. Oh well, at least my supporters are DELIRIOUS after our first league win :)
See you around!

A few questions:
Have y'all seen keepers improved based purely on just contribution from keeper coach(es) without specifically training on goalkeeping?
If so, how many keepers coaches do y'all lug around?
What'd you do in the unfortunate events of your keeper picking up a ding when carrying around 1 keeper? Scrounging the wire?
1st...yes, but only once, a weak keeper went to inadequate.
2nd...three, but I haven't seen much if any improvement.
3rd...scrounge the market...btw, if you bid on the keeper I am...I will wage war. Ask Illini. =-)

With as many people as we have, it's becoming less of a coincidence =-). I have Airhog's old keeper...Superman has mine.

Was my backup defender, but his form never climbed above poor. He's been at disastrous form for like 3 weeks now.

That was my first player purchase on hattrick, i can claim ignorance of the game....can't I? I had decided to try him starting at my left defender and well....
Floyd Meek on the other hand, had a terrible day.
He put up an amazing 0 star performance :( ...Well I can keep him as a backup for now.... oh well it was only I think 1,000...
Would you like to buy him back for a box of rocks?....or maybe just a small rock? :)

2nd...three, but I haven't seen much if any improvement.
3rd...scrounge the market...btw, if you bid on the keeper I am...I will wage war. Ask Illini. =-)
Do NOT bid on a player if he is. I slept with the light on, and put about 15 locks on the door to save me from him. ;)

To think, i was so excited to finally get the email about getting a team. Then I saw my roster... :rolleyes: Oh boy do I have alot of work ahead of me.
Anyways, please add me to list of Hattrick addicts:
Bull Dogs (8421)
Country: USA
Region: Boston
Arena: Bull Dogs Arena
Series: # 8 in V.1
Anyone feel free to challenge me to a friendly if your team needs an ego boost. Off to stare at the transfer wire for a few hours. (Only 3 players on my squad under 26.. And none of them are that good. :( )

Well, if you are training defenders, he MAY be worth something someday. He is an 18 yr old inad defender, after all. Play him in friendlys, get him training.
If you aren't training defenders, I strongly recommend dumping him back on the xfer list. He'll sell for 1,000 again.
And no, I'm using my rock collection as promotional items for my next match vs vexroid. :)

I just got a team to play around with. Hopefully I can get them going eventually.
Toledo Drunkards (8295)
I started up a dynasty. I hope some of you will stop by and give me some advice on this thing.

You've now been challenged...MWHAAAA-HAAAA-HAAAA...
Actually good luck...I got three keepers, I'm training in keeper, and I plan to have three passable keepers by the end of the season, playmaking just wasn't getting results:(

Having three keepers, you train only two of them every week, right? Wouldn't it be better (or cheaper) to carry only two and as soon as one of them is passable, to sell them?

I've tried to get rid of one and had no takers...I grabbed two almost simultaneously and realized I had a keeper too many...but I train all three, the youngest gets all the friendlies, the other two are capable at the leagues...

What I meant was simply that on a given week, only two of your keepers will benefit from the keeper training... I personally keep two inadequate keepers and I'll try to bring 'em up to passable...

I understand, but I have three inadequate keepers and the only one I'd get rid of had no takers twice...actually he's powerful, so he's good for wet weather games...I'm hoping that with enough rotation I'll get one to go passable, and I'll probably sell that one, and then keep the other two...I'm deep in debt...

Debt, yeah debt...
Open question to all the great FOFC Hattrick minds: Do you really use the special attributes like powerful, head or even my favorite, unpredictable ;) ??
I got my team about two weeks ago, won one league game and a friendly and I,m still trying to figure out most of the stuff that's in there...

Powerful like I said is good for bad weather games but in good weather it's actually negative affecting, quick would be the opposite of powerful. I like upredicatable as well, I have a guy or two that is and they make great plays, you simply have to accept that they also make bonehead ones too...
I'm currently second in my division, but I'm in no rush to move up, doubtful that I would...
My question is, how much money do you make at the end of the season positionwise? Would it be enough to pull me out of debt on simply be a bandaid till I get a decent prospect to sell off?

Thanks for the info on unpredictable, I was kind of joking because I had no idea what it meant.
For your question, and after finding that your team is in 5th division, I found in the rules that second place earns a mere $45 000... Not sure this will get you out of the red. Keep training those keepers ;)
You can find that info in the Hattrick rules, under "about Hattrick"...

Well I'm only 3 points behind 1st place...so I could win anywhere from 75000 to 45000 (barring any losing streaks).
Here's another questions, I'm in V.140, does that mean if I win in V.140 (get first place) do I battle against the lowest team in V.139? Do I move up to V.139 if I win? I'm confused by this?
and no 75,000 won't get me out of debt, but any money is good money...

Here's how it's stated on the promotion page...
The winner of each league in 4th Division has a chance of being promoted to a higher division. Half of the winners (those with most points, best goal score and so forth) will be promoted without having to play a qualification game, the "worse" half will have to play qualifation games against the teams in 5th and 6th place in the division above.
Teams number 5 and 6 in each league in 4th Division have to play qualification matches in order to avoid demotion. The 7th and 8th teams will inevitably be demoted.
This comes from my league page so it talks about 4th division. The way I see it, if you win your league, you will be compared to all the other 5th divison winner (from V.1 to V.???). If your team is in the top half, you automatically get promoted. If not , then you play a qualification game against a 5th or 6th position team from 4th division (in your case)... If you wanna see where you'd stand in case of a possible promotion, you can click the
promotion link on your league standings page...

Hey Qwikshot, I found a tool on tha site where you can calculate what would be your bonus depending on your finishing position and if you got promoted or not and if you had to qualify to get promoted...
Click here
http://www.databased.at/hattrick/index.asp
then go to tools then to bonuscalc
Later, FrogMan.
Edit to add that the report is in Euro, but the conversion is easy in Hattrick: 1 Euro = 1 US$

I would be slightly hesitant about having 'unpredictable' at anywhere other than forwards, but that might just me.

Ok I updated the list. I put a * next to some of the team # from outside the US and their country so it might help in scheduling. If I forgotten someone not in the US, let me know I will fix it, its hard to keep track of all these teams. :D

Well let me make it a bit harder HFP :)
Welcome the Isla Vista Vandals to the FOFC Hattrick owners club.
Isla Vista Vandals (70384)
Currently #5 in V.25 (although this last week's 8-0 drubbing sucked)
California, USA
I'd say challenge me to a friendly, but I've already got one this week, and then another two lined up (home-and-home versus some guy from Europe I got into a bidding war against over a transfer Inner Middie). But after that, I'm all about challenging FOFCers :) Oh, and I'm fantasybandit over there.
EDIT: HFP, I bought a goalie from you with my first transfer. One Alex Anderson...I thought that name (Cedar Pond Horned Toads) sounded familiar :)

03-04-2003, 08:22 AM
Ahh ok yeah you got a pretty good deal on him 11k? I think you are the first FOFCer to buy a Toad. I will probably be putting up a passable keeper later this week.
By the way, do you guys want me to rearrange the list by region? Maybe get some rivalries going or something... just a thought.
