Hello story forum.  I'll doubt you'll remember me, but I used to write a few stories back in the day. I'm thinking of going with the old tried and trusted International soms, but wondered is there any nation you guys want to see in action? The more suggestions the merrier.  NOT San Marino.
Getting a team with no appearances in WC with the aim of taking them there would be nice. I was thinking of doing something like that if/when I give up my current story.

Failing that, would anyone be interested in a BSP team becoming quite rich?
Would you? It's going to be very easy in the first few seasons...maybe too easy...

It seemed to be 'cause a couple of people criticized his approach in the transfers, which wasn't actually his fault at all. Hm, if that's the case though, you kinda have to learn to take criticism if you want to get better at something. You don't know your weaknesses if you never get beaten..
Make that one person...I actually said I like his last update. IMO he got bored and was looking for an easy way out...

Is it just me or is having stories that are simply match reports not all that creative? No offense to anyone who has a similar story in here, there are exceptions. Modiga's is one that comes to mind..

i might do an nPower Championship, or maybe even SPL.. what do you think? You should do one that you will enjoy, that's the most important thing...I, for one, am not a big fan of the English leagues since most people do them and they tend to get repetitive but the decision is obviously up to you.
PS. I you want to tag someone with 2+ word in their name you do it like this...

Just wondering - why the lack of comments? I don't even mean my SOMS because it's only up an hour but I'm seeing threads with 50 views and 3 replies by people? I know sometimes there are people viewing to check if there's an update but it seems like half the forum are happy to read and then go out of it again which as a writer is really disheartening.
Can I get a hallelujah?

I've had an idea about a story and I'd like some feedback from you guys. I won't be managing any clubs/nations but I'll be traveling around the world watching different leagues and devoting 1-2 chapters in a team that has stood out. Either by achieving their goals or by vastly under-performing. It's more of a journeyman story from someone who loves football and travels to the corners of the world.

Good idea that, would keep it from getting repetitive as well like most match reports etc. as you'd be moving about a lot.
Yeah that's the idea. Every update is a different country, league probably even season.

Yeah, that would be a good idea Jabba. Make it really descriptive and include some of the sights from your travels in the country too..
Yeah I was gonna do that. In fact I have loaded a game with most of the created leagues here in neo and have decided what my first team would be if do the story. Btw does anyone know how J_ames does that great layout in his story? I was thinking of stealing it...

First of all let me point out that I said he wasn't a good choice for the blog because I have read most of his threads and most of them were pointless. Even if he had made something out of it I'd still be right in judging him as did many others. Sadly this was just another failed attempt to project himself.
quote Modiga
But if anyone feels like doing one then first message me just so that I can check to see if you're a committed member (especially in the story forum) and then will give the go ahead. Exactly what should have happened from the start.
quote James Young
Who would people want to see write the story blog though is the question personally, and what kind of layout does everyone want to see? I think that what really counts is if someone wants to commit to the blog. It takes a lot of work and a lot of reading and I don't know who might have the time and desire to start it (out of the "qualified" members of course). The layout is secondary.

So you are advertising your story in the same forum it's posted while your story is in the top of the first page? Cool...
