I don't know what has happened to him. I've been planning this for months but it seems he has gone MIA. Barring some sort of miraculous return, I can all but guarantee that TWLM won't be up for running by the start of week 1.

so is TWLM not going to be functional for Week 1?

so i've come #2 in TWLDM twice now; you'd think it's time for me to win this?

[Ardour]

Sorry people!

I'm glad I requested 2 weeks of regular season now!

A few problems have arisen that's left me scratching my head, but I'm working on it!

Hopefully TWLM will be fully working for the first round of regular season.

[Pressure]

when will it be ready?

The manager portion is neat and all, but if you're looking to win by making money all you need to do is bet. You can make way more from betting than the pennies from 'managing'

But can you?! How can you even know that Zeebu before its even started?

I am not using the same odds algorithm as last time. I think it was Vati who complained the odds weren't attractive so he didnt want to take part in it. I actually uped them that time. I am using a simple but new formula that I have devised for this TWLM. This time I think the odds are realistic and I am not going to up them to encourage people to bet. I am very interested to see how it goes...

so happy to see this back.. curious to see how it turns out. shouldn't there be betting for every category (i.e. - most kills, most deaths, most points, best RPD, etc.) ?

These would be good additions Not ThiX. It would be tricky but I can imagine how I could implement these... For the time being, I would like to develop Betting slowly. If you all enjoy betting on squads and MVPS then of course, it can be expanded. TWLM hasn't been around for a few seasons so lets see if there is still the demand.

It was a whole new game and a stupid crappy sucky one at it having ppl choose themselfs on what league they want to spend money and how much they want to spend on it...

It's stupid to then divide ppl into LD, LD, LB earnt places...

Just have one overall winner and call it: craptrophy of the year reward.

In a rather late response to this, I thought introducing a Total stat would be a possible solution. I prefer to see one pot of money. For a managerial game it makes sense. I have never played a manger based game that has separate amounts of money? Having to balance your money on the various leagues/betting makes it more managerial. It makes it more interesting as there are more factors. More angles to play. Do you just want to be a 1 league manager so you have 1 full team? You would have the advantage in the short game but there is a cap of 5 players per league so soon the other managers will have caught up. The total Stat is the best way to see who the best manager is and is the only one that really matters.
