Re: SWOS 16/17 - The official unofficial Update

Nice job!
I ve done 6 of the 12 teams in the Faroes so far (the Premier League has 10, and there are 2 non-league teams there,
I m doing them too just to be safe ).

I ll post my spreadsheet when I ve done if you like so you can use it to test stuff.

OK, this is version 1.0 of the Faroe Islands league + the Excel file I use.
The league should be called the Effodeildin, but I didn t dare edit the name .

I ve uploaded the files to show people how I ve tried to tackle the project.

I used www.transfermarkt.com as a base to determine the most used formation, a player s preferred position and his value.
Most teams didn t have players set to backs/wingers so I guessed a bit .

I combined this with www.footballzz.com. Here they list the minutes played per player so this gave me an even better idea
who I should put in the first 11 / the full 16. Problem is this site places players in different positions than transfermarket.
So sometimes a defender on transfermarket was an attacker on footballzz and vice versa.
The site also has a lot of players photos, so I used this to decide which head/hair-type to use (though I m useless at the
difference between blonde (Y in my Excel file) and brown (.

I also tried to find each team s 2016 strips, but Faroese football isn t all that well-documented...and my Faroese isn t all
that good .

I name this version 1.0 because I have only used the player values on transfermarket to create the teams (and let swosed
assign the player attribures because it s hard to find more information).

Things to do before the final deadline:
- Tweak the teams to give the best teams an advantage (e.g. B36 are the reigning champions).
- Change teams to facilitate transfers etc. before the September deadline.
- There are 12 teams; 10 in the Effodeildin and 2 Non-League. The two non-league teams I ve created are the two teams
relegated from the Premier League in 2015. The 2016 season ends October 22nd. With a bit of luck we ll know which
10 teams will play in the PL in 2017. The two teams relegated will be the new Non-League teams.
- Other changes for mistakes etc..

I ve already had two playthroughs and B36 actually won both titles which was probably just luck. The rest of the league needs rebalancing.
I couldn t get the game to crash with this file, so I guess it works .

In other news; I m going to hand the Netherlands leagues and national side back because I know there are people who would like to tackle them.
So could you remove my name from them please. If no-one claims them in the next month or so, I ll re-claim them .
In return, I ll do the Icelandic league + national team, and I ll do the El Salvador leagues. These will take a bit more time due to work commitments the coming weeks.

This site doesn t really work for the Faroes seeing as the teams are from last season and they usually only have one player per team.
It s a great site for the bigger leagues though .
