gratulujesz 3 miejsca BP przepraszam bardzo on miał cel 1 nie uzyskał celu to nie jest dobry wynik i nie ma czego mu gratulować. Ja rozumiem że on jest z twojej grupy ale bez przesady

I żeby było jasne pretensje mam także do siebie bo gdyby nie dwie porażki mniej to bym miał wyższe miejsce

Spokojnie panowie @Mati-Colchoner i @sniki26, jeżeli ktoś jest winien to tylko @Dovco_HandF, on wybierał menadżerów takich czy innych ( w konsultacjach zresztą z kilkoma niegłupimi menadżerami, ale pomińmy to). To nie bitwy tylko nowy format, menadżerowei zagrali tak, a nie inaczej. Oczywiście, że ponieśliśmy sromotną porażkę, ale kiedy któryś z polskich menadżerów grał w finałach Mistrzostw Świata OSM od czasu ostatniego występu tam dwóch świetnych polskich menadżerów, którzy od dawna już nie grają w OSM? Troche pokory panowie, tu każda liga jest jak w finale MŚ, grają najlepsi z najlepszych z każdego kraju. To, że wierzymy w siebie to bardzo dobrze, a to jakie posiadamy umiejętności na tle światowych graczy, to inna sprawa. A tu grała śiatowa czołówka, nie jakieś leszcze do obijania. Potrzeba nam grać w turniejach CCWE i tym podobnych, aby za rok awansować z pierwszego czy drugiego miesca i bić się o medale. Zabrakło nam szczęścia, gdybyśmy awansowali to pialibyśmy z zachwytu nad ekipą, a że przegraliśmy... to szukamy winnych. Typowe, takie polskie. Albo niebo, albo piekło, żadnego czyścca. A czasem po prostu rywale są lepsi i trzeba schylić przed nim czoło. Przegrywać też trzeba umieć.

@sniki26 Pogratulowałem uczestnikom za walkę do końca i tyle... może faktycznie to nie była literówka, tylko chciałeś napisać że miałeś "strasznie bardzo silną grypę" a nie grupę, wtedy przyjmę Twój wpis ze zrozumieniem.

Moim zdaniem wybrałeś bardzo mocną ekipę, po prostu musimy zaakceptować, że inni byli od Nas lepsi w tym momencie, i tyle. Natomiast, nie powinniśmy szukać wymówek, że ktoś miał w innych grupach mniej punktów i awansował, a my nie, że format turnieju był zły, i szyny też były złe Tylko patrzmy przede wszystkim na siebie, wyciągnijmy wnioski i postarajmy się przygotować do następnych turniejów jeszcze lepiej.

A ja jako obserwator turnieju z boku ( obserwuje kazdy turniej polskich ekip oraz graczy) mysle ze naleza sie slowa uznania reprezentantom gdyz walczyli z 200 procentowym zaangazowaniemgratulacje panowie za walke. W odniesieniu sie do slow @sniki26 oraz @Mati-Colchoner panowie czasem takie porzadne otrzezwienie w postaci porazki sie przydaje grunt to wyciagnac wnioski i na nastepnym turnieju zdominowac rywali @Dovco_HandF co do powolan wedlug mnie bardzo dobre. Szkoda tylko ze chlopaki z PAM nie mieli okazji zagrac i od razu zanim spadnie na mnie fala hejtu za opinie to jest moja opinia jak obserwatora ( osobiscie nie wtracam sie w reprezentacje za wysoki poziom) ale jest wolnosc slowa jeszcze raz panowie gratulacje za walke i glowa do gory nastepny turniej jest wasz

Janex123

@binguspl cieszę się, że poruszyłeś ten wątek, dwójka z PAM, ja i @Magic-89, miała grać w drugiej rundzie , można gdybać co by było gdyby któryś z nas grał w 1 rundzie, ale teraz jest to nieistotne bo nie wrócimy czasu, choć żartując można powiedzieć, że gdy nie ma PAM- nie ma osiągnięć ,
Zabrakło naprawdę niewiele, każdy z grającej czwórki, jestem przekonany walczył do końca i dał z siebie tyle ile mógł i za to należy się uznanie, szkoda trochę tych kar.. trochę by inaczej to wyglądało bo wtedy mając to miejsce 6, można byłoby się odwołać, gdyż jak słusznie zauważył @Magic-89 dziwnym jest fakt, że jako najlepsza drużyna z szóstego miejsca awansowała reprezentacja Indii, która zdobyła mniej punktów od grającej u nas Libii. Ale tak jak mówię to już gdybanie, czasu nie cofniemy, za rok wrócimy silniejsi

Zrezygnowano ze wszystkich turniejów w starym formacie bitewnym, a więc i z tego turnieju, ale jest nadzieja, że to też wróci. Fanatyków OSM jest jak chmara szarańczy. To zaraza które pożera i wchłania wszystko na swojej drodze. W miejsce nieobecnych pojawia się kilku nowych .

@apocalipse4 said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:

Hello my friends,

"Be less curious about people, and more curious about ideas." - Marie Curie

The National teams of Cameroon, Croatia and India, will be out of the PM´s draw because they already created leagues , in the R1 phase, as you can see in this board :

As we announced yesterday, today at 19:00 CET was the Final draw, and here are the results :

The distribution of the teams, was based in the base table, and in the position, that the National teams were drawn.

You can check the Nations Cup Regulation here :
http://bit.ly/NC2021_REGULATION

Remember: any complaint, should be forwarded to the Nations Cup email: staffn145@gmail.com

Some National coaches, asked about the lineup registration, because they had problems with managers, that could´t play, and were registered in R1 phase, as reserves. Bosnia and Herzgovina, Hungary and Turkey, asked to replace some of these managers. We decided, to allow those changes, but the Nations Cup regulation, as to be applied. And all National teams, will have to register 2 reserve managers, at least, to prevent any unexpected situation that may occur, during the competition. In case, of a manager that abandon his league, the National team will be penalized with -20 points.
Here is the link, to the formulary, for the lineup registration : https://forms.gle/LyGqJ64G3buL2qrq8

And today, we bring back, the Predictions section, for a second round, of wild guesses from the managers! Until 21/03, we will gather the results, posted by the managers, and then we will publish, the final results of Predictions! To participate, just answer here in the topic, as follows:

Predictions
1st -
2nd -
3rd -

Filling in the blanks with the National teams of your choice, after the lineup registration phase is over, we will publish here the results of the survey, and the National teams chosen by you!! Who will be the winner, of the Nations Cup first edition? What are you waiting for?! Start the polls!!

Hi guys! Yes it´s me, Sir Hunchy! You thought, that i would be away, for some time, now that we finished, the first phase of the competition! But i´m back, to talk about, 2 of the finalists that i didn´t analysed yet : France and Morocco

Let´s start by France. They finished in 5th place in Group A, with 617 points, and they performed regurlarly allover this first phase. For me, like i said, in the general analysis of Group A, they are still one of the candidates, to win the Nations Cup 2021. With 245 points, konini, is the MVP of this National team, he won league 2A, with 18 wins, 5 draws and 7 defeats, representing 40% of the total points France achieved. His "right arm", foulardinho, conquered 183 points, distributed by 11 wins, 13 draws and 6 defeats, representing 30% of the total points, his National team earned. FCGG76, was a little bit more discrete, with 126 points in 10 wins, 10 draws and 10 defeats, representing 20% of the points France granted, for the qualification to the Final. See you in the Final, "mes amis"!!

Then, in Group B, Morocco fought hard to get their golden ticket to the final, and they finished in 5th place, with 923 points. The MVP of this team, is Mess s, he conquered League 2B, he is one of the candidates in the Goal Frenzy award, with 19 wins, 7 draws and 4 defeats, resulting in 326 points achieved for Morocco, representing 35% of the total points. His sidekick, is mod kaka that manage to win 14 times, draw in 10, and lost in 6 games, conquered 218 points, which represents 24% of the total points his National team obtained. In general, they are a balanced team, and if they find a way to bring the winning rate, of this group up, they will be very difficult to beat. Maybe they´ll make a surprise in the Final, everything is possible! May the Force be with you!

And now, that i analysed all the 16 finalists, i´ll take my postponed holydays!! Nothing much, just 7 seven days, in the clear waters of the Caribbean Sea!!
Don´t worry, i´ll be back, and then the pressure will rise, and i think that we will watch a Grand Finale!!
Until then, keep playing the beautiful game!

Chill out with the Nations Cup 2021 hymn :

Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

Tonight in Nations Diary, we receive the captain, of India @Paniyath , they stayed in 6th place in Group A with 565 points, and they had a very strong performance until the 20th round, then they had a break, and managed to qualify in the last rounds. Please, let´s give a big cheers, to our guest!

Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?

A : Thank you! We just about made it through the last qualifying spot from a really tough and interesting group. After observing all the teams from our group and the other groups there are some really serious talent out there. I expect the final will be a difficult one but I have faith in my team to give their best as they always do and we will see where it will take us.

Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?

A : You guys are doing well in bringing together all the communities through this competition. As Ivan suggested in his interview, the idea of a facebook group for communities or other social platform would be a good way for every community in OSM to be aware.
About our national team, despite being a big country we are quite a small community in the game, we don’t have our own forum and there is only one active Indian crew in the game whereas many other national teams have lot of crews to choose from in their community. But the team we have works hard every time they get the chance to play for us and sacrifice their time to do well. I can never doubt their commitment for sure.

Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?

A : Back in the day I always followed WCC and WNT two of the best old battle competitions but unfortunately everything changed for the wrong reasons but I enjoy playing in CCW and now NC, two well organized competitions in the crew forums. And also FMS is well organized and has some serious competition. And credit goes to many managers like yourself and others who keep organizing several competitions in the forums keeping the competitive spirit alive during these times when we see a lot of uninspiring updates implemented in the game.
As for if I was to choose between squad building or tactical ability, I would say a mix of both is needed to be a really good manager to adapt in any league. I would look at the nature of the competition we are playing in and decide which is more important, in my opinion I think squad building is more important in a tournament like this.

Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?

A : Being part of a crew helps the selector better because you will know the manager will be really experienced and they continue to grow under a good crew but to me it is not always necessary. We have few managers who have played for us over the years who have not been part of any crew but invests a lot of time for the national team, the experience is gradually gained when we play in more competitions but for continuous growth and better understanding of the game it is important to be in a good active crew but for me I cannot ignore hidden gems out there even if they don’t play for a crew.

Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?

A : First of all when it comes to the organization of this tournament I cannot say anything more to improve it. The energy you guys put in every day to keep us entertained and informed is just amazing. That is some talent. The addition of Nations Diary is brilliant, that’s the first thing I read when I check the forum every morning .
For future editions I would suggest some changes in the scoring system. For example I believe the GD(Goal Difference) is given a lot of importance and weightage compared to achieving objective and above objective bonuses. I probably understand it encourages attacking play from managers to get a good GD and I am a fan of attacking football but I look at this as a neutral and this would seem bit unfair to managers who like to deploy defensive tactics every game and have a low goal team to manage with and compete against stronger squads. And also consider an early red card could simply give you a 5-0 defeat and this would give away too many points so the GD should not be given much weightage in the scoring system compared to league points and achieving objective bonuses. Another suggestion is for next edition I would like to see national teams who get drawn as PM from Asian/Middle-Eastern regions given an option to create the league early because the usual time to create it would be very late for us and it would be a risk if it does not get created( I somehow managed to stay awake last time I had to create it haha). And last but not least for the sake of this great competition it would be nice not to see teams forfeit the tournament before it starts. It destroys the competition seeing teams which don’t take this event seriously and seeing a group eventually filled with lot of CPUs. Hopefully we don’t get to see that again.

Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?

A : Definitely. We are planning to form a U21 team and compete in competitions. I think it is important for new managers to get some experience first in these types of competitions before they can be tested out for the main team in major competitions. Well about criteria for participation I’m not an expert on this because we never had a U21 team and participated in any U21 tournaments but years ago there used to be World Subs Cup organized in the forums for U21 teams and there was a criteria that those who participated for their national teams in major tournaments like WNT cannot be eligible for it. I agree with it because it is a tournament for new managers to break into the scene and develop in a good competition.

Wow! i´m amazed with this fantastic manager! It´s because of guys like him, and many other great managers and persons, we dedicate every effort to make this competition the best experience in OSM universe. Thank you so much @Paniyath and good luck India!!

Celebrate life with the Nation Cup 2021 hymn :

Closing for today, we say goodbye with a heart overflowing with thanks, for the support expressed, for the community, and we promise to continue to work hard. Nations Diary, will return tomorrow, with news and updates, stay tuned!

Thank you, stay safe and enjoy life!

@moltensky said in Nations Cup - Explanation, FAQ, Rules and Discussion:

Hello Friends!

Welcome to todays's edition of Nations DIary!

Today we'll talk about the scoring system, again, to freshen up everybody's memory. As we're counting the days for the Grand Final kick-off, we'll keep covering all details until then. Also, we'll present Predictions standings so far, and post another interview with a Finalist National Team Couch.

“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” — Abraham Lincoln

Let's review the Scoring System adopted for the tournament.

The scores that have been established for this tournament bear a certain resemblance to the scoring system used in old battles:

The first 4 classified (1st to 4th place) will have the following bonuses:
1st -> + 20 Points
2nd -> + 15 Points
3rd -> + 10 Points
4th -> + 5 Points

The last 4 classified (13th to 16th place) will receive a penalty of:
13th -> -5 Points
14th -> -10 Points
15th -> -15 Points
16th -> -20 Points

The points obtained in the league will be multiplied by 3;

The goal difference will be multiplied by 2;

There will be a penalty for falling below the goal of -2 points (multiplied by each position below goal);

There will be a bonus for being above the goal of 2 points (multiplied by each position above goal);

For fulfilling the objective receives a bonus of 2 points;

Examples:

Goal 5
30 league points
5th place
Goal balance: +10

Score Calculation => 2 pts (in Position) + [30 League Points * 3] (90 pts) + [10 Goal Balance) * 2 ] (20 pts)
Total Score => 2+90+20= 112 Points

Goal 9
10 league points
11th place
Goal balance: -5

Score Calculation => -4 (2 places below Position) + [10 League points * 3] (30 pts)+ [-5 Goal Balance * 2] (-10 pts)
Total Score => -4 + 30 -10 = 16 Points

To help all National Teams keep their Scores on track, we've prepared an universal table (in Excel format) that can be edited. Here's the link for the file:

Remember: any complaint, should be forwarded to the Nations Cup email: staffn145@gmail.com

The Final Lineups Registration is still going (it ends 19/03 at 23:59 CET). But the Final Leagues PM's are already defined by draw:

League 1F - mounirhomaroc - G1 Morocco
League 2F - BoudouAA - G1 Belgium
League 3F - G1 France
League 4F - Jhonger PG - G1 Peru

The Nations Cup Predictions for the Final is open until 21/03, and on 22/03 we will publish the results.

In the last days we've received a lot of feedback from the Community, and, so far, the Favourites are:

1st place - Brazil
2nd place - Serbia
3rd place - Turkey

To spice a bit more these Predictions, we've implemented a scoring system: 10 points for each reference in 1st place; 5 points for each reference in 2nd place; 3 points for each reference in 3rd place. The standings above already take in consideration this system, and were updated today, at 19h00 CET.

Today's interviewed National Team Couch in Nations Diary is @Flanatico-NE from Brazil .

Q : Congratulations, once again, for qualifying into the final. What are your expectations for the last stage of the competition?
Well, I hope it is well disputed, and that Brazil maintains its good performance, and we can end with the title, ahah! We are working hard for this!

Q : By creating Nations Cup, our main goal is to empower the culture of OSM National teams. What type of actions you think should be done on each National community, in order to achieve that goal? What can you tell us about your National team History?
Maintaining this interaction, keep doing Competitions like this, very well organized, this will make it a lot easier.
My history in the selection, until now we managed to pass to the Nations Cup final, we are leading the World Cup, and in the Championship we are in 3rd.

Q : From the several competitions in OSM, which of them you observe? When you build your shortlist, what's more important in a manager: squad building or tactical knowledge?
I observe all of more relevance, such as Senior, Masters, etc. In my view, you have to be balanced, you have to know how to evolve a squad, and have knowledge of tactics, this is fundamental, and you can decide a title.

Q : How important is it for the development of a player to be part of a crew? Does a player need to be part of a crew to be called to your National Team Draft?
Well, it is very important. Because within a group, a manager will already know what it's like to work as a team. Yes, you need to, I cannot invite someone to a national team, where the responsibility is huge, if a manager has never had the experience of working in a team.

Q : For future editions of Nations Cup, can you tell us what sort of improvements you would like to see implemented, in order to improve the Tournaments overall quality, and help it achieve the ultimate goal of being one of the reference competitions in the OSM National Teams universe?
I don't see anything that can improve it more, more. Maybe you can evaluate this score point again, doing something simpler, it would even make it easier for us to set up the spreadsheets, like giving a score to the first ones, negating the last ones, adding along with the team's score in the standings, so the goal would not make a difference, if it is above or below! More is just a suggestion, I think it would be easier.

Q : Would your Nation be available to play Nations Cup U21? What should be the criteria for participation?
We are certainly available, yes, and help with whatever is needed. The criteria would be the performance in competitions for younger players, such as Youth Cup promises, and sub-700. Having a good performance in them, they will probably have a chance in the under-21 team.

Thank you Nadson Eduardo, and good luck to Brazil!
