Championship Manager

[vampitup]

Tikay, its what we all used to do in the evenings before poker and Wifes came along

and the day.

I did a 22 hour stech once. tea on a tray, bucket by the side for the loo.

Lol, any more record stretches out there?  My bro and his mate did an all night session once and his mate fell asleep in front of the pc with the mouse in his hand!

Always more into "Age of...." than Civ. Hated the turn based games.

So true about Champs addictiveness. I'm on a little poker break though so I broke out the champ!

i was a huge fan of civ and civ2  hated call to power and civ3
think i ordered civ4 through amazon not sure if i played it yet

as i have 15-20 games here unwrapped waiting for time

i am looking for a laptop that can play FM2006 at the same sort of speed as my desktop

amy ideas?

ok new year we will set up a FM2006 network game all of us picking teams from conference or conference n/s

a few hours a week on a day to be decided

but broadband is a must

I had a mate on 01/02 who put himself on manager holiday. He left it on and forgot about it. He went to Turkey for a few weeks and when he came back it had done over 100 seasons. He was sacked obviously - but funny none the less.

on the sigames OTT forum they have a thread dedicated to poker

is blonde now going to have a games thread?

When i was 17 I did my back in seriously and had a year of 6th form.ended up in hospital but all sorted now

I couldnt get out of bed basically, and i played cm probably on an average of 15 hours a day easily

It is more addictive than poker IMO

I was manager of Spurs, I won everything, left the computer running overnight. When I woke up the next day, Tevez, Joaquin, Kompany and Fred had all been given FREE TRANSFERS!!! and I was given the sack.

I have a very sad confession to make....


I woke up one morning with a terrible pain in my right arm, which due to a blood disorder is a very worrying thing. I gave my future wife a nudge and told her that I felt unwell and did the pre arranged checks for lumps and swelling. As this continued I noticed that my neck was also hurting and I now became very scared so I called the NHS helpline to get some advice.

The girl asked me all sorts of questions due to my blood disorder and was arranging for me to seen by the home visit doctor when the following conversation took place.

'One final question sir, have you been on a long plane journey or been sitting in the same position for an extanded period of time,(I'm more suseptable to DVT than the average person).

'Yes' I replied. ' I have been off work this week and have played Championship manager for about 50 of the last 72 hours'

'And is the pain in the arm that you use to click the mouse'

'er.....Yes'

'Then I think the best course of action sir is to swap hands and get up and move around at half time' She laughed

I thanked her, told the Mrs not to worry and promtly moved the mouse to my left hand for the next few days........Its true.

That is possibly the funniest thing I have ever read!  I have no shame to admit I was crying with laughter reading it!

FM2006 is awesome although i struggled at first with the new tactics engine.

FANTASTIC BOBBY!!!

My mate is seriously addicted to champ, he spent all his time on it and lived it as tho it was real life... believing that champ would see into the future!

He was my champ advisor, he did spend uni revision on champ saying its the only way he could revise. A few champ names must've slipped into his essays
