Transfer system explained

Frey United Software


After another loooong week full of hard work the transfer system of Football-o-Rama is more or less ready to go. Right now there are six forms of transfer deals, although one more will be added (hopefully before start of first season).

Direct transfers
The basic form of transfers will be similar to the one used in old Rama - you can send an offer on a player from different club, if both sides reach agreement the player will be transferred at the end of the week. Same goes for the players on transfer list. The biggest difference comparing to old Rama is that clubs can agree on cut from player’s next transfer to be paid to previous club. Player contract details are not negotiable - the contract length and wages are dictated by the player, he will make up his mind accordingly to what club he is negotiating right now. This means that f.e. player will want higher wages if he is about to move from first to third division club.

Player exchanges
New interface allows to sign deals for money and / or player exchange. For example club A can swap their best player for less skilled player from club B and also get some cash.

Loan deals
Loan deals will be important for both sides - for rich clubs it is chance for their less skilled players to gain experience in smaller clubs, the smaller clubs can use for a while better players without buying them and / or paying them only fraction of the wages. There are 3 loan deal durations: until mid-season, until end of season and until end of next season. Clubs can negotiate what percentage of player wages they will cover.

Player auctions
This is new element that most like will not gain much attention, but we thought it might be interesting option. In general club can put their player on auction, it will be a bline auction, in which bidders will not see who and how much money offered. The player will keep his old wages level and contract length.

Free players
Players that are out of contract are available to be signed. Each of them will receive offers from clubs and at the end of the week (during transfers round) they will decide which club they will join. The contract length is not negotiable, but each team can make offer of wages and signing fee. Player will take under consideration not only the offered money, but also the club reputation and how many chances he might get to play.

Amateur players
List of amateur players is a place you can fill the gaps in your current team. They might not be good, but they are cheap and they are available all the time (they can be signed even outside of the transfer window). Plus there might be talented players among them.

Foreign scout
This option is not available yet, but hopefully will be soon. You can send your scout to any country in the world in search of a player that you look for. It is not cheap, it might take some time, but if you can find a jewel worth bringing into game you might gain advantage over your opponents.

There are also two details that players new to Football-o-Rama might need to know:

Transfer window
Transfer window will last from start of a season until mid-season when last round of transfers will take place. This solution aims to prevent suspicious transfer activity close to the end of the season, f.e. sudden loans of star players to small clubs fighting for promotion. The acclimatization in new club should prevent it, but for now we wanna make sure nothing sinister take place in second part of the season. Also each player can be transferred only once each season (loan deals are exception), so you can’t just buy a player and moments later put him up for sale.

Transfer weekly deadline
Just like in old Rama all the transfer of the week will be finalized on Sunday evening, after the league game. This again will give clubs some space for negotiations and will not spoil game for other users, who might be surprised that their opponent suddenly gained few top quality players just hours before their match.

Last minute problem


Frey United Software

During tests on Saturday I have detected a problem with account / club creation on the public copy (account does not switch correctly the status, allows inactive user to parts of the interface it should not), was hoping it is easy to fix, yet on Monday only some of them are fixed. New restart date is Wednesday, if the problems will continue we will start the season without option for new users to join.

Don’t... even... ask....

That is all I have to say - random disaster, few hours without electricity, happy times all around :( Should be done with the restart by the morning, but taking under consideration how well everything went so far in 2024 something weird will happen anyway, so I moved the start of the season until Friday.

Finally!

The mystery behind gmail notifications is finally solved, but it will take few hours to adapt to new rules and retest the functions involved in sending e-mails, so we will start the new season on Tuesday. And this is finally final :)
