@alyssagb Wow, congratulations to everyone involved in making this game alive for so many years! Hopefully we will be able to enjoy it at least double more of that!
As for the event, sounds brilliant, my new favourite event

@alyssagb hi!
First of all, I would like to congratulate you on your 20th anniversary, only a few games achieve such a long life and have such a solid player base.
On the other hand, I would like to make a proposal to the Gamebasics developers and team. I think that lately there has been quite a lot of unanimity in the competitive community about the events and how they affect the normal development of the OSM competitive environment. That's why I would like to propose an idea in case we could work on it in the near future: a tool (just as the funds compensation tool works) to disable certain events in official OSM competitions organized by Gamebasic. I understand that in public leagues or unofficial competitions it can bring a plus and can be interesting, but in competitive leagues it completely alters its normal operation, especially the madness transfers, since they make an unfair and completely random distribution, harming some and benefiting others (as an example, I will say that being a very active manager it has come to the case that I get 500 million difference in sales and 30 players difference; and on the contrary in other leagues, where I sold more than most, having players for sale of all kinds, but most of them at more than reasonable prices). And the worst of all, is that we find ourselves with a scarce market and a voracious competition to sign someone, having to be 3 days constantly attentive to the phone at all times, which is unhealthy and makes you want to stop playing.
On the contrary, events such as training sessions, friendlies, employees, etc., I believe that they do not harm and are equal for all.
I hope that the proposal can be read by the developers and we can raise a better climate in the official OSM competitions and I think it would not be too difficult to implement.
Thank you for your time and best regards! -

This weekend's event: Super Weekend
Starts: September 24, 10am CEST | Ends: September 27, 9am CESTOnline Soccer Manager turns 20 this month and we would like to celebrate this with you!
Be ready for the Super Weekend event: extreme progression, shorter timers and higher selling chance!
Wow. You surprised me again GB! I think you've completely forgotten that people have a real life outside of this game. Why not stick to the announced calendar of events?
I hate this transfer event and avoid joining the battle during the weeks when this event happens. Because apart from your precious game, I have a busy life. Due to your uncertain transfer simulation hours, my daily work began to be disrupted. Especially with this event, it becomes unbearable. If I had known that this event would be implemented, I would not have joined the battle. Are you publishing this only 1 day before?
Moreover, not 1, but not 2. You have planned exactly 3 events. Either don't publish any event calendars, or stick to the calendar you published. That way it doesn't make any sense.

Wait, they are celebrating their 20th birthday by giving us 3 pay-to-win events at once?! That's absolutely crazy and very annoying. Not the way to go, GB!
-
I am very grateful to GB-OSM and I celebrate its 20 years, I have been one of the first players in OSM but due to different circumstances of life, I had to leave.
Today I would like you to give me that first profile I had as a gift and change it for this one, I do not want 2 accounts hahaha it is prohibited.
Very happy anniversary -

Transfer event is pay to win? LOL
Its the only event that have helped me so far to win knockout royale tournament exactly because it is not pay to win and massive coin spenders could have not make too much of a team difference.
Yes it creates a problem in active leagues and it indeed requires a massive activity during the event, but if anything it is completelly opposite to pay to win events .
-
They could have warned that the stadium was also going to be covered -.-"
Now I'm in a group competition waiting for the stadium to advance until 3:00 in the morning, losing 1 day of training to my opponents -.-"P.s: In this same competition (slot 4), see if you can repair the simulator that is already tired of not selling anything and the others selling at 100 and such million at once -.-"

@majstor-matt my friend I started to think Im being dramatic about this transfer event but looks like Im not alone
. As previous managers said, this event (especially without speedy scout)its not healthy for anyone who plays in full active leagues/battles (with timers off) because if you want to win you must stay all day waiting for notification sound and be very quick to grab some players before your opponents do.I know you are good and very experienced manager and I don't want to underestimate you but trust me its not same playing a battle like @MehmetCetinTD with TeknoRed playing against Idios Assassins and same with your crew against opponents with 3 stars like you're actual crew is playing.
This time we have speedy scout so its not very bad but I will skip this transfer events everytime when I can.

Completely agree Jet and I’d like to avoid them when possible. I prefer no transfers through the night so that’s something GB got right in my opinion.
With the random transfer sims needing to look at your phone constantly for notifications on a weekend just to be competitive isn’t good. It’s more of a inconvenience than a bonus. I’d rather pay not to have it when creating a league.
I seen somebody put about having the option of not having promotions in moderator tools when creating a league, would this be possible in the future? Everyone is happy then, I think it would be hard to implement on app battles though for searching?

@jeffro-davies I invite you my crew super crew in the world UZB MNM forza my friends

@jetont
I never said that it does not create problems. I played couple top competitions (CCW, NC and around 10 battles in top division) in last year or so and saw everything, thought with notification on my app I managed to avoid bigger problems and it did not create problems for me that much.But my reply up there was about pay to win. Transfer event is not pay to win, it creates different kind of problems.

It took until Friday evening before I noticed that this promotion was more than Extreme Progression on training. It was a surprise because I don't read the forum every day. But it was a good promotion.
Can you please post the schedule for October soon?
-
Temporary event: Booming Stadium
Starts: September 29, 7PM CEST | Ends: September 29, 11PM CESTThat means the time to expand a part of your Stadium is a lot shorter and you will also gain more from it. More advantage during a match at home, more progression during Training and more income from gate receipts.
Make sure you build the biggest and baddest Stadium out there!
-
It's not logical to do this event as most players have already evolved stadiums over the weekend.
-
@alyssagb what? tomorrow I have 1 important away matches and the Champions League final, where I can also play away from home (I'm not sure if you turned off home field advantage in the cups)
how could you even come up with an idea to give such an unfair advantage at all and only for 1 game ??? personally i have enough randomness in the game -
