Welcome To The Hunger Games!

Hello one and all, welcome to a new edition of The Hunger Games! This will be a somewhat interactive style of competition to see which one of us can create the best player on FM, and see if he can win the greatest of glories!
Some of you may be familiar of the one which I made last year. I do apologise for cutting it just before the end, and for not explaining the reason why. I had technical issues with my computer at the time, which meant it took hours at a time to simulate a half-season. This will no longer be an issue.

What Is The Hunger Games

Its quite simple, really, and it is loosely based on the system used in the popular book and movie series. Twenty people may sign up, and only the first twenty will be taken, and these people will be randomly assorted in to teams of two. Each season will prove extremely important. For each action the player does, whether that be a senior appearances for his club or win a personal award, the player will earn points. The team which has accumulated the least number of points by the end of the season will be eliminated from the running. When only one team remains, it becomes every man for themselves.

The initial three seasons will be warm-up seasons, to allow the players to grow towards their potential. The next ten seasons will be the true brunt of the competition, as every player fights for every available point. Description for the number of points earned for each action will be described later. There shall also be certain upgrades available for winning the most individual points over a season, or having the highest wage at the end of the season, etc.

Once the game starts, I will post updates from four days of each year: 1st January & 15th July will provide updates of the players, while 1st February & 1st September will summarise any transfer activity. I will include info of the players' profiles, their points earned, their club's on-goings and their country's on-goings.

Please also note that due to Brexit in the game, I will make things fair for everybody by only allowing European nationalities. This means there will be no problems with work permits. Anybody who decides to not read this and put their nationality as non-European, will have their nationality set to that of Liechtenstein.

DON'T pick a weaker nation just for caps sake, caps for better nations will count for more.
