I have created a team now... A question, how does this work? :p The players will they be as good as they are ranked now or will that change in the next season? What I am asking is should I get players who played excellent in the 03/04 season or those that I think will play good in 04/05 season? And will this be in real time with the premier league? I cant seem to find a guide or something explaining this...

Yeah, you have to pick players that you think will perform well this premiership season. Your player will be awarded points according to the criteria below as the season unfolds.

It is the team at the end of the season that accumulates the most points that wins the league.

In this sense, it is better to pick players that will score well in the criteria above as oppose to those who are actually better over all players.

Make sure you don't forget to join the Neowin League!

can you change players in the middle of the season?

What solution do you think is the best, some greet players and some very poor, or the whole team being average?

I calculated total score per price and found that together you get more total point for your team with 2 players with 200 points than several players with a lower score...

But I will tweak it a bit, I am not satisfied...

^^^^In answer to above post^^^^

I have got the base of two or three very good players which will score highly then I have surrounded by cheaper players. My cheaper players are mostly young and unproven. This is a bit of a gamble, but if it pays off then I will have a few quality players whilst only paying a small amount. I have also made sure each player is likely to score highly in every catagory (assists, goals etc).

I also used another 'trick' for chosing a good squad but I will reveal later so you lot don't copy me.... :shifty:

(Although, again, it is a bit of a gamble).

We have eleven teams now! I am actually quite looking forward to this!

Just been making a few transfers - I must change about two players every day!

Once the season starts transfers do not go through till the next week and only get 1 free transfer per week i think, any more than that cost you points!

Yeah, thats right!

Just making sure I pick the best players for my cause before the season starts so I won't have to do too much transfering during the season!

:cool:

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.

    • 007 First Light review: Satisfying spy adventure that James Bond needed

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I'm not happy with myself for it, but I've gone and got hold of it. Just another 45 minutes and I'll be Bond, James Bond. In my defence, IO's Hitman series is awesome, and I'm a sucker for 007. So while it might seem a bit simplified compared to Hitman, I'm sure I'll be right at home.
