Save Your Season Challenge

Permission from Vincenzo + Credit to Dec7 for the Challenge Sig





Introduction


Note : You need the 8.0.2 patch for this to work


Save Your Season is an idea i came up with earlier today, it basically works like this...

I have already played the game and have taken over various clubs at various stages across the season, setting you Challenges, such as keeping a certain club in the league, Winning the League, Winning the "Double" and of course for the extremist... Winning the "Quad" . You will need to have good knowledge of a majority of leagues however, as the leagues are from all over the world, including Australias A-League, Brazilian Série A and Portugals BWINLIGA along with many many more.


How does it all work ?


You will see each Club has a link to a downloadable file, this file is a Saved Game, which you will need to download and then put into

code
C:// My Documents/ Sports Interactive/ Football Manager 2008/ Games


Once you have done this all you do is load up FM and then go to "LOAD GAME" and then select which file it is.


You will get points depending on how hard the Challenge is, each challenge will have a difficulty rating of between 1 and 5. There will also be Special Challenges for those who seek the Ultimate Challenge.

Once you have done your Challenge, please take a Screenshot (The Key next to F12) and then send me it via PM.

How do you score Points:


The scoring is as follows:

Difficulty Rating 1: 10 points for each one
Difficulty Rating 2: 20 points for each one
Difficulty Rating 3: 30 points for each one
Difficulty Rating 4: 40 points for each one
Difficulty Rating 5: 50 points for each one

Special Challenge: 75-100 Points depending on which one it is you do






The Challenges:




Difficulty Rating 1:


Levante - 16 games left, your bottom of the La Liga, you have one objective... SURVIVAL !

France Under 23's - Short One for you this time... Win the Olympics

Italy Under 23's - Another short one for you... Win the Olympics

Recreativo - 8 points behind here in La Liga, only 9 games left, again your bottom of the League ! No win in 11 games ! You must survive !

Mallorca - 5 games left ! 4 points behind and your Goal Difference is 11 worse off than Levante who lie in 17th.

Wigan - 7 games left ! You have to stay up, that is your only goal !



Difficulty Rating 2:


America(MEX) - Nothing to this one... Win the Champions Play off, and the North America Champions Cup

Sunderland - It's Christmas Day, and I bring you a gift.... A Challenge, to keep Sunderland in the Premiership, you only have 9 points, and to top it all off, your next game is at home to CHELSEA.

Siena - You have 28 points ! The most you can get this season is 40 points, The team in 17th has 36 points. The results need to go your way and you MUST win all 4 remaining games, a trip to Genoa next followed by a tough game at home to Inter Milan !

Celtic - 7 points ahead of Rangers at the top of the Premier League, Partick Thistle awaits you at home in the 4th round of the Cup, Your task is to win the "Double"

Sheff Utd - It's Christmas Day here too, your 17th in the Championship, your Transfer Budget is a shocking £268,289 !! Your challenge is to get the club promoted !



Difficulty Rating 3:


Q.P.R - 19 points behind 2nd place ! 5m to spend in January win Automatic Promotion !

Vit. Setubal - Bottom of Bwin Liga, stranded on 15 points, you're 9 points behind and only have 7 games to keep your club up !

Bordeaux - Bored of FM ? Then do the Bordeaux Challenge Win Ligue 1 Orange and win the Uefa Cup, first though you need to get out of the Group Stages, in your group you have, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid and HSV to name but a few.

Tottenham - Sitting in 4th, you have the easiest run in out of the chasing pack, but your challenge here is to secure 4th and win the FA Cup, a game against Chelsea stands in your way though.

Inter Milan - Your Chairman is NOT happy, you have not been able to win the League, that honour has gone to your fierce rivals AC Milan. You now must secure 2nd AND win the Champions League.

Stafford Rangers - 23rd in the League, you need to finish with 15 more points than the team that finishes 21st




Difficulty Rating 4:


Mali - Another Long one here... First you need to Qualify for the World Cup and then you need to get past your Group Stage.

Bolton - Staying up here is the main objective, but your Chairman isn't willing to offer you a job as Manager next season unless you can bring home the UEFA Cup ! Your into the Semi's already.. How hard can it be ?

Leverkusen - 15 points behind the leaders and with a massive Goal Difference to catch up on as well (22 behind) Your challenge here is to win the League !

Olympiakos - 9 points behind the League leaders, and Bottom of Group H in the Champions League. Your Challenge is to win the League and reach the Quarters of Champions League.

Peterborough - You have lost 5 games so far and your lieing in 5th, win the League without losing more than 8 games !!!


Uruguay - Quite a Long one here... First you need to Qualify for the World Cup and then you need to WIN your Group Stage.



Difficulty Rating 5:


Spartak Moscow - Win the League 3 years running and the Russian Cup at least Twice ! Sounds easy, seen as though they have won the League the most times but it sure as hell isn't !

Fenerbahce - 11 points behind the League leaders, but still in the Turkish Cup and the Uefa Cup, your Challenge here is to win all three (The Treble)

Houston Dynamo - First you need to win the Western Conference and then to top it all off you need to win the North American Champions Cup

Arsenal - Your still in the League Cup, your Top the League, you haven't played your first match in the FA cup yet, and your still in the Champions League... Yes you guessed it... Win all 4 ! (The "Quad")

PSV - Doing well in the League your sitting top, but AZ are not far behind, neither are Feyenoord. Your into the Quarter Finals of the Champions League but are playing Sevilla, you have to deliver BOTH trophies.



Special Challenges:


Bournemouth - Think your up to the Ultimate Challenge ? 24 games gone and your on 0 points in the league, your club is Bournemouth who are only in this position after going into administration. Your job is simple, KEEP THE CLUB UP !!! This is worth 100 points alone

Leeds United - Keep On Winning this is taken from my other challenge. With this you start as Leeds United in League One, however instead of the Mightly Jonny Howson and Jermaine Beckford, you have players like Vincenzo Iaquinta and Sergio Aguero. League One should be a walk in the park, as should the Championship. But your task here is to keep on winning ! By the End of "the 4 year plan" you need to have won all these trophies !!!

Johnstones Paint Trophy x 1
League Cup x 4
FA Cup x 4
League One Champions x 1
Championship Winners x 1
Premiership Winners x 2
Uefa Cup x 1
Champions League x1
Euro Super Cup x 1
Club World Championship x 1


PS: I need to see when sending this screenshot in, how long you have been manager for ! SS of EVERY league once completed and also EVERY final of EVERY Competition.
  • Please don't send me a summary of what Leeds United have won as this will NOT count ***

Or


Start a New Game and win the Premier League with Derby within 3 seasons = 100 Points


* THERE IS NOW 30 CHALLENGES *


Complete ALL the Challenges Above = 1000 Points
Complete 15 of the Challenges Above = 500 Points

re: Save Your Season Challenge

Very good thread mate nicely laid out and all. I might try a couple of these over the course of the next few weeks as I am school break. Should keep me busy.

Although, I should probably be revising.
