In this topic I'll post changes that are too small to be mentioned in the news but that can be useful to know about. I'll also inform you in the first post of this topic about the big additions we're currently working on.

Currently working on:
National teams.

Somewhere this season we'll have the first election for the national teams. Everyone in the league of a country can vote for the manager of the national team, but in addition you can also vote for the manager of teams where you have at least one player in the selection. If you can vote for a team and are a VIP-user for the entire period you can become a candidate.

The first vote will be a testrun. You'll be manager till the end of the season and set the lineups for the friendlies. At the end of the season there will be a new election for a 2-season period in which you can qualify for and possibly participate in the first world championships.

From now on, users who haven't filled in an e-mail address yet will be removed from their team after 14 days of inactivity (instead of the usual 35 days).

This means that tonight a lot of inactive teams will be freed and can get a new manager.

In home-and-away knockout rounds the away-goals rule will now also count after extra time (before it only counted after regular time).

An example:
If you get a 2-1 home victory followed by a 2-1 away loss the match will go to extra time. If both teams score in extra time the result will be 3-2, 4-4 aggregate.

There rules on how to handle this differ in different real-life tournaments.
We used to have the rule that the match would go to a penalty shootout, but in correspondence to the UEFA champions league we will now let the away team in the return match win on the away goals rule (he made 2 away goals, while the other made only 1).
