Star Scream had a very interesting rookie season being assigned to Port Royal. Who in the long scheme of things met some pretty awesome people. Port Royal aside from first game struggled throughout the season, we played Sydney City Beating them in the first game of Port Royal 4-2 . We as a team would go on a 4 week losing streak , coming back in week 6 with a 7-2 Win over Jakarta, which in the season would be our highest score. Star Scream was in many formations and i was a CM for Port Royal i seemed to be playing more of a CDM role. As the Season went on i know my stats or even ratings weren't going to be good. Overall my first season with Port Royal and alot of my teammates would say not a good season.  So i had get into the gym and grind for those TPE to improve my stock to Major Clubs/ Minor. Regardless if the season was a let down the drafting process was an upside for Star Scream. Going through the drafting process and the interview process alot of teams were asking if i was willing to switch positions as it seemed CM was already filled. With my skill stock not being so hot at the moment my TPE earning and stock for that was very high. Through out the season Star Scream had to get in the gym and was a top 10 TPE earner throughout the season. When the draft happened i was a little surprised not going in the TOP 10 but it happens. I slide to 22nd Overall to Catalunya and honestly i was asked to Moved to RD, atm in my draft class im in top RD of tpe earners. With the rough season as a player it was an awesome feeling being drafted to Catalunya suits my style my humour everything and i love Medieval Horses and Knights. As Star Scream continues on playing for Seoul as a RD. So far in my short career i have already passed my Academy Assist stats with only 4 games in. Overall with the ups and down Star Scream feeling after my first season with the draft in mind was a blessing.

Approved!

Career 1


When Nick arrived at Accra International Airport, he got lost on his way out.

The driver of the car that was sent to pick him up had nipped off for a wee and missed Kasak as he slipped out the door and got into a different car.

Luckily this wasn’t the first time it had happened and they took him to Accra’s training ground anyway.

The inauspicious start continued, with a 0-0 against what should have been an easy team of legends, but somehow, Accra found their feet and with it rose to near the top of the table.

On matchday 3, Accra really got firing on all cylinders, with a 7-1 thumping of poor Sydney City. Playing off his unnatural right, Kasak played 5 key passes, produced 4 clear chances, 3 of which ended up in the back of the net, with Kasak awarded a 10 out of 10 performance despite not scoring.

His first Player of the Match!

His second wouldn’t come for another 10 games, where Accra overcame a formerly dominant Stockholm with a stunning 5-3 victory. Despite Blaise N’Kufo’s hattrick, the Player of the Match went to Kasak with performance of one goal and two assists.

It’s unfortunate that the academy index has some games missing for Kasak, as just these performances alone would account for all of his recorded assists!

That said, for every assist, there were darker moments – missed opportunities galore, a poor successful cross percentage (18.75% compared to 33% for Jack Pow) and plenty of bad teamwork.

Accra themselves finished a delightfully dull fourth place, but with Kasak poised for a decent draft. Indeed he was the first one of Accra’s somewhat quiet academy season to be picked, going to Hollywood in the first round, but with a caveat that he would no longer playing as a winger, but was moving into much murkier territory indeed: Central Midfield.

Nick Kasak left Accra in much more esteemed style than his entry. He and his other draft prospects enjoyed an open training session in the stadium and small open top bus parade.

He will not leave Accra a legend, by any means, and his career in the minors at Kaapstad will need to built brick by brick, assist by assist, goal by goal or… what else happens in midfield?

Let’s find out.

Approved!

Well... Where shall we start with how Kairo Vox rookie season turned out? 

Jack Pow turning my free time into a social world of sim leagues? crazy time alterations of personal life just to have a quick scouting chat with one of the many amazing OM's, scouts, AMs we are blessed with here?.... The rumours of an expansion plan based in Greenland around a Call of Duty themed team?....

How about we start with how my rookie season went from a newbie 34 year old entering sim world for the first time who loved FM that jumped straight into being an Academy manager to Stockholm and even had the audacity to take on a second job as an Accountant! Managing was absolutely wild and I am proud to say I feel I had a big part to play in the activity levels in our awesome class 26. The banter, the laughs, the live matchday vibes were 2nd to none. Stockholm set the academy on fire going undefeated for the first 4 games before the OGs wanted to come in and set fire to the parade lol! Seriously, we had a ball... 

As for Vox as a player being the ultimate newbie I ruined the initial build and within the first half of the season used my free academy reroll to try and make a difference on the pitch to be more of a key player. One of the biggest highlights for me was playing along side my real life best mate Jack who unfortunately was drafted away from me when it came down to it. 

I come away from the academy with smiles and good memories, made some new friends along the way, now onto the next chapter of Kairo Vox at North Shore, still pushing for the Head Accountant role, whilst enjoying time as a BOD Intern. Shoutout to all you legends that have made this such a positive experience! Now throw me my 10 TPE graders you absolute beautiful humans haha!

CPT#1

Mecha Zilla was placed onto Sydney City in the Simulation Soccer league as it entered the S24 Academy Class. There were some early growing pains as it adjusted to the face pace of the game and the different strategies employed by both Sydney City and the opposing teams (but lets be honest, Zilla didn't pay attention to any of those anyways). At the end of the academy season Zilla finished with the 7th most successful headers at 60, many of which were produced by its totally not illegal force field (although it still needs to get the timing down better to actually get the ball to go in the right direction). Zilla was credited with 3 goals and 1 assist, largely to luck. Zilla also had 5 key tackles throughout the season, good for 5th most in the academy. 7 shots blocked for 7th most in the academy and the 3rd most clearances at 37 showed that it can be a true defensive wall when needed! Not so surprisingly, Mecha Zilla led the academy class in most yellow cards at 4 but no red cards though! But if it wants to have a shot at one of the professional teams, Zilla will need to clean up its game and stop "accidentally" stomping on players. All in all, Mecha Zilla finished the season with an average rating of 7.04. Which is quite middle of the pack but it showed improvements as the season went on and for a robot not knowing how to play football, it has a lot of room to grow. For the team, Sydney City stayed above 0.500 with 7 wins, 1 draw, and 6 losses with 37 total goals scored and 31 goals allowed. Overall Zilla was happy with how the season went and is looking forward to joining one of the main organizations soon!
