Football Manager Live.

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

It's basically an all-online version of Football Manager.
You create your own team, offer contracts to players, etc.
The rules are slightly different though.

"Users are assigned to a "game world" of approximately 1000 players and create a fake club that can then sign real players, similar to fantasy football. Players are signed via an eBay-like bidding system with the player signing with the highest-bidding club.[3] Players age one year for every month in their game world. Whilst the game's database uses players from the real world, after one year in a game world a majority of the real players will disappear, as they will have aged by 12 years and will probably have retired.

Clubs can then create a league or join an existing one and leagues can be linked together with promotion and relegation between the levels. Matchmaking for league fixtures is done through a "resolve by" system in which users have to finish a game by a certain deadline instead of having to meet online at a specific time. If a player cannot meet the deadline, an AI assistant manager takes over his or her team for that match.[3]

The game also adds an RPG-like skill training system for users. Managers can impove their skills over time in areas like coaching, tactics, fitness and scouting to become more specialized or to suit their style of play"

I'd like a league of Transfansers and their friends to become reality :o
Can't believe I'm still here.
