Travelling Manager [Challenge]

Travelling Manager Challenge





Why post this?




Because I'm currently managing outside of the "big leagues" such as La Liga, Serie A, the Premiership and I'm finding it extremely fun. I thought this challenge might encourage people to try less well known leagues.


Hasn't this been done before?




I don't think so, I certainly haven't seen something like this, or I wouldn't have bothered with it.




So what the hell is it?




It's a challenge, stupid! The goal is to win one league and one cup competition in ten different countries in one career.



Sounds good, how do I start?




Just start a new game and post in the thread what team you are starting as. I'll then add you to the leaderboard.



Any rules?




Of course! Where would a challenge be without rules? To make this more interesting, I've decided that you can't start in England, France, Italy, Spain, or Germany. Also, one of your ten countries must be outside of Europe. Finally, screenshots will be required as proof of achievements before points are given. All the usual rules like no reloading games or managing two clubs also apply here.



Is that all?




Not quite. I understand that this could be quite tedious, waiting to get jobs and stuff. For this reason, you can start on whatever reputation you want. There is no time limit for this, I see no reason to put one. Also, I encourage you to persevere and complete this. Completing this will come with a massive sense of accomplishment. What? You don't care about feelings of accomplishment? Oh... What if I gave you a cookie? Huh? You'll do it? Great! Now gogogo!

re: Travelling Manager [Challenge]

Yeah, you can, Nick. Just thought it would make it more interesting so everyone doesn't start with Arsenal.

Proof of competition wins:

Chinese Super League (League) - 100 points
East Asian Champions Cup (Minor Continental Competition) - 25 points



Also, keep us updated on how you're doing - that's the whole fun of the thread.

Of course you can! I've still got nine countries to go, and I'm wasting time by spending a second season at Shandong.

Russia is, of course, not part of Europe. Just make sure you ignore the fact they partake in the European Championships.

turkey and russia must be considered european countries in this because they partake in the european championsleague and not the asian one.

re: Travelling Manager [Challenge]

Where does it say that there is a league restriction?

There isnt.

You can manage in England or anywhere, just NOT at the start of the game

re: Travelling Manager [Challenge]

Wow! I'm pleasantly surprised to see so much interest.

So ricmck, Daniel_Smith, NewMonkey and EllsPearn are all starting this?


EDIT:

Stu: I think they're asking, because they have to win one league outside of Europe.

Stefan: I'll put you up then.
