Don't have a clue about "real" Leyton Orient but it was my most successful Championship Manager job in the history. A long time ago, when I was an CM addict (and had free time) Leyton was the team that finally cured me
I managed to bring them all the way to Premiership and win two consecutive Champions Leagues with them. After that the game just didn't have any challenges left.
And tomorrow I will write a 3 pages essay on "Why is Ronnie so awesome?" I propose that you make it part of the rules and demand everyone to quote parts of it whenever entering Cloudbet contests.
@Trofo - I can only dream of that kind of success for Orient, I'll just be happy if we can make it back into the football league this season! I used to love Champ Man, I'm running a Orient team on the 17/18 version of Football manager but I'm stuck in league one at the moment. I'll have to hit you up for some tips
Hmm, I can understand how confusing it would be, maybe a rule like :
if(forum.rank < newbie)
if(twitter.followers < 1000)
bootFromCompetition();
Because I personally think this opens up room for abuse, one person would only need about 6 accounts to make it into cloud 3 with one of them. But I know it's a hard job to filter them, soo.. your competition your rules
@KingZee - I am just happy we have people who are providing great feedback on the rules, it makes things much easier when it comes to reviewing and planning for future competitions!
Your suggestion could be a good idea for future comps, perhaps something like "Requires a BCT account over 7 days old OR post your first message with a link to a valid twitter account". I'll have a think about it and get back to you!
For all those still sitting on the fence (or wanting to change their prediction before the deadline ) our blog team have just published an article on the biggest games this weekend, which includes a breakdown of the Arsenal vs Man Utd game, and their pick for a winner: Check it out here. I'm going to send round a message to forum members who have participated in our previous predictor comps this afternoon, I'm hoping to get to at least 100 entrants before the deadline!
Have a great day all!
Ronnie @ Cloudbet
