Hi all

I have a general inquiry in regards to an online multiplayer game. This is the scenario:

11-12 players online in a regular career network save. One is Manchester City for example and another one is Norwich City. How would you decide who 'wins' the season? Manchester City is expected to win the title whereas Norwich City is just hoping to not be relegated.

Would you look at the manager points in the ranking system after? Or would you setup your own parameters?

Appreciate any answer.
I would setup their own parameters. Maybe do a long term game to give all teams an equal chance? Do most above your expected finish? Manager of the year rank? I would take some suggestions from here and from the players involved to get a fair and accepted list of rules.

Yeah, I guess that's a fair way to do it. I was just hoping for a more accurate (scientifict, game play) decider. The ranking system wouldn't work?
It would be biased to bigger clubs. The clubs in UCL/UEL have more comps to win, so more points.

That's also true. I wish SI would come up with a score sheet thats comparable. Like if you played a game of Counter Strike or Call of Duty it tells you who wins the round.

But for now, we'll make our own intricate parameters.

Thanks!
