FM11 Network Game 1 2 3
by Allan- 71 replies

Many up for this? I'm sure those involved in the FM09 game will be interested, but I'm sure we can squeeze in a few more bods as well, perhaps.... If people are interested, I'll stick up the rules that were used during the FM09 game, as both a refresher for seasoned pros and a heads up for the newbies out there. I may also make another suggestion or two to help keep the game flowing. Once interest has been sorted and the rules digested by all, we can then arrange days and times most suitable for sessions. This is by far the hardest aspect of a network game to arrange. The last thing that will need to be done is to choose a suitable league, or leagues, for us t…

Just received an offer from BT offering me Option 1 Broadband for £9.99 a month for 18 months, which is a good deal. The only problem I have is its usage limit is 10 GB a month. I use x box live but never more than 10 hours a week (usually a fair bit less) and download the occasional album but nothing heavy. Simple question, will 10 GB be enough for my usage ? cheers

I have around three months to run on my existing contract, but as of next week I can upgrade my phone with orange. I foolishly plumped for the Sony (Sven Goran) Ericsson X1 last January, and it was a massive disappointment, and broke on me last month. Wish I'd have got an iphone back then. So, any of you cool techy cats know of any quality phones becoming available before mine is up, or any good ones out now? Any good pay monthly offers? Or is it worth getting the iphone? Is it worth getting an 8 or 16gb one? What would you recommend? Any helpful advice will be rewarded with rep. I'm definitely not getting a blackberry though, as unless you use it for business, yo…

Right, I've just got myself a PS3 and was wondering if there was any way to run the online feature wireless. I've got my laptop running on a wireless network and was planning to connect my PS3 to the laptop with an ethernet cable and running it that way. I ran my 360 doing it and was wondering if there was any way to run the PS3 online in a similar way. I've just confused myself there.

Well thanks to the likes of Chauncey, md1892 and stevienando, I can pretty much lay my hands on just about any ebook I want. Except football ones. I can't find a good source anywhere. Has anyone come across a decent private tracker or the like?

I lent one of those Android boxes off my mate to try for XBMC in my bedroom; and it was shite quite frankly. Awkward to use and buffered constantly. I've been looking at these Amazon Fire TV boxes and the specs seem great on it. I'd imagine it would stream XBMC no problem and I think it can be installed on it easily enough looking on a few forums. A couple of the lads in work have got them and said streaming the footy works great through it as well. Netflix and Amazon prime as well as iPlayer etc... come on it as standard also. I notice it also supports the Plex app though. Anyone got Plex running on any of their devices? Thoughts on it?

Thought this deserved its own thread The Al Jazeera network have secured all rights to broadcast every single premier game live for the next 3 years, this includes internet broadcasting too. Now the thing is in order to be able to view the live HD streams in English over the web you need to be based in an Arab country. You can however use a VPN and a smart DNS, this will give you access to every single game for a couple of hundred quid. It is being talked about on the Digital Spy forum and it all seems to be above board.

Many people on here got one of these? I picked one up 6 weeks ago after months of thinking about it. It is the best techie thing I have bought. I wanted it for playing my x264 tv eps and bluray/hd-movies and it does that and much more. I stuck a 2.5" laptop HDD inside it and the whole unit is totally silent. I can even transport it to a mates house and watch on their setup. A couple of days ago they opened up themes on it and a good little community is forming with people building xbmc type themes.

Tried it for the first time yesterday on Sky Q and I have to say i'm underwhelmed. It basically looks like proper 1080p that you get from a Blu Ray. I believe that the Sky signal is compressed so you lose some quality and that's why 1080p on a Blu Ray looks better than a channel on Sky broadcasting at 1080. Anyone else tried it?

I’ve moved my living room around and as a consequence my Android box (which is my main source of TV) is now about 3-4 metres further away from the router. This has had a dramatic effect on its WiFi signal. The box has gone from picking up over 20mbps to less than 1, meaning it’s virtually useless. Sometimes it’s not even picking up the WiFi at all. How much improvement am I likely to see from an Ethernet cable? I’ve never used one before. I’m not liking the idea because the router’s near the front door and I’d have to get a 15m cable and nail it around door frames, feed it underneath the carpet where the living room door is and nail it right around the room on the sk…

The year was 1984, I had a commodore 64 +4. A tape loading game of such magnificance that it has only two colours and a data base of about 20 players. It based skills of players from 1 to 9. Alvin Martin being the best player in the game. A £400,000 signing was a thing to behold. I spent hours on that game, never won the league either, I think my version would crash if you got above third in the league by April. Mind you it was a copy, which involed in those days using your Mam's twin tape deck and in the living room and taping over a philips C60 of a the Kid Jenson doing the charts. There was no promotion or relegation either. Fuck knows why I bothered, but…

My upgrade is due next week and I want something decent but have no idea what to get. Currently using a Nokia N8 which I got for nothing through work but apart from the boss camera, it's doing my head in. The phone I actually got with the contract was an N97 which was fucking shit. Need to get away from Symbian and wont be touching Nokias until they start rolling out the Windows OS. So, any suggestions???

Fucking love them. Been bored lately after bleading all of my HBO boxsets to death, so started playing CIV III again (my PC can't handle the fourth one, which is a shame) I've revisisted one of the games I saved ages ago but haven't touched for about a year. At the time I was involved in a stalemate with the French (I was Roman) and we'd pretty much divided the planet between us. We've got the same level of technology, but I've managed to build some ICBMs and am going to fuck them up in the next two days or so. I've also got a crafty little city established just on the tip of their main landmass that they don't know about, I'm going to slip some tactical nu…
