    World Cup Competition

    So I think it would be great if once every 4 seasons, at the end of that season, there would be a World cup for national teams. (Like in real life)
    Based on the managers Nationality you would get that national team to represent.
    It would be like the champions league system, so there would be infinite players that play with USA, FRANCE, ITALY, ....
    But obviously if you get USA for example you won't compete against another USA team, in every "world cup" there would be 1 team of each nation. Or up to 64 or 128 teams.

    Each manager will get a random squad of players from his country, and everybody would have about the same star level. It will be a tough competition if everybody is kind of equal, but a much more tactical game.

    World cup is usually 3 round robin games, and 4 knockout games, so 7 games total. so it could be done in 4-5 days or perhaps with 2 games a day would be faster.

    I think it would be a cool feature.

    I dont mind this as an idea and think it would be a good addition. My only concern would be geographical demographics in regards to only being 1 team from a nation in each competition. I would imagine that some nations would greatly outnumber others simply based on population figures and therefore players from that nation. It would be hard to imagine that somewhere like New Zealand would have the same amount of players in this game as somewhere like China so at some point you would reach a critical mass position where it is no longer possible to only have 1 team from any nation in a competition.
    Now to extend that idea a little it might be better to have each nation have a playoff amongst its own players with the top players from each nation then going to the finals where it would only be 1 team from any nation. Further to this I would have the amount of representatives from each nation be proportion based dependent upon player population from each nation. As an example lets say its 5% of the player population make the finals - NZ may have 1000 players so 50 representatives , China may have 10000 players so 500 representatives.The exact % can be moved a little to ensure we get only 1 team from a nation into a comp. For example it may be that only 495 from China are required so that limit is set at that point. Now given that T11 is played in probably almost every nation it may not be all that difficult to achieve 1 team from any nation.
    Certainly this form of the concept may take longer and may need to run ( in the background ) for several months with the finals themselves held over a short period of 3 to 5 days.

    Good shout. It was a while back when I started.... but how is your location determined? Do you select that 'manually'?

    I think no matter what everybody needs to have a chance to play in world cup
    From every manager level they should pick a specific number of players from every nation
    Maybe a cup tournament as qualifier, but it has to be fair chance to everyone
    If you compete with a higher level manager you won’t have a chance to qualify if quality is higher

    Well you can make your manager be from anywhere when you start so I guess its manually done. However wouldnt your ISP address give your actual location?
    As for myself I am Finish by birth living in Australia so amongst my teams I have managers from both countries.
