Hey /diy/. My main board, /ic/, has failed me, so I came to my second board to say this

http://4chancup.wikidot.com/start

We should make a team for the 4chan cup. it's like almost every other board on 4chan has done it but us.. all we need to do is compile a list of 23 /diy/ related things that we can make as players, and make a logo, and then pick an anthem for us.. it can't be that hard, can it?

>> No.190631

Anthem:

"Identifying Wood"..?


Yeah, it's wood.

>> No.190655

Other requirements for a team:

It needs to have a gold player (best player, max stats), a silver player (2nd best player, almost max stats), 2 bronze players (3rd and 4th) with above average stats, and everyone else gets an average stat of 66.

Gold - 99
Silver - 88
Bronze - 77
Regular - 66
Goalkeepers MUST be 66s.

We also need to give players skillcards
http://4chancup.wikidot.com/skillcards
5 "P" skillcards, and 5 "S" skillcards. Golds get 3, silvers get 2, everyone else gets 1.

You also need a formation, and people to take free kicks, corners, penalties etc etc.

That;s just it, we need more /diy/ related things. So far we have:
Fingerbox, Nixie, Chainmail, R.C Circuit, MacGyver, Identifying Wood, Lightbulb Terrariums and.. The platform of doom.

We need 15 more, and then we can make our wiki page, and start thinking on tactics to beat everyone. It can't be that difficult to think of 15 /diy/ things, surely?

Metal Detectors is a common thing for /diy/. The "Wooden wedding ring" thread was a popular one, that could be incorporated.. there's a lot we can add, I just don't want it all done by myself

191128

Ok, here is a possible plan I thought of:
Gold and Silver as forwards/forward-mids.
Bronzes at those two positions because they have the most influential passing moments. (had the top-mid black and left brown switched initially, but then decided the top-mid position would not have much difficult passing)

Might be risky having blacks as forward wings, but with this style of play, it shouldn't be too much of a hindrance.

I figure that this formation can play one of two styles.
>1. Championed by the Brazil team
>>Have each player staying in the far back of their red zone (defensive/offensive "zone"). Then when other teams defenders/midfielders come up and we gain ball control we utilize our multiple passing routes for an effective counter-attack.

>2. Similar to England's formation, but with wings being pushed WAY up.
>>This is a much more offensive way of playing, but just as effective. Rather than waiting to take the ball form the opposing team and counter-attacking, you control the ball in the middle/sides slowly making your way up and wait for a break. The deep wings (hopefully won't be stupid enough to get caught offsides too often) allow for distractions for the forwards to break away into striking territory.

I know it's a lot, but after reading feel free to alter it, improve it, insult it, call me a faggot

Also, 66's are the blacks. Cause, ya' know, 4chan.

Here's what I read from your post:

Why not get a represenation of our board into the spotlight?

Of course, it is fun, it's brilliant fun. If you've ever seen any of the games, you'd know its fun. There's upwards to 300 viewers for babby cup, and for the main tournament there's 2000 people, and that was with 4chan down.

>> No.191516

>>191513
It's because we have a coach, he tells GermanBro when to switch players or change the formation. This happens with most teams.

You can't expect the AI to have the same intelligence as a human coach, PES' AI is retarded.

>> No.191517

>>191516
.. a coach?

>> No.191519

>>191517
Yes, let me explain it to you.

Every board is allowed to choose one official coach, the one that will guide GermanBro to do the changes in players, formation or mentality during an official match. We leave the testings mostly to the official coach, while we give him suggestions, he sees what the best formation is according to him and that's what he gives to GermanBro. They contact him during the match in Skype. Guar/d/iola was /d/'s coach, Cozmo was /pol/'s coach, Dragonfag was /vp/'s coach, GoldTiger is /m/'s coach. Get it now?

That way we have more control over the players and we avoid the AI retardness fucking us over.

>> No.191520

There's no special need for managers in the friendlies since the condition isn't random and fatigue, cards or injuries not accumulated.
The AI will only do retarded substitutions if positions aren't covered by the bench, in which case he loves to move the gold player to that position.
