Does anyone, other than let's players I suppose (although who wants to watch FM let's plays?), actually use the whole social media plug in thing? Seems like turning the autism to 11 to tell the entire planet just how many hours you just spent on the preseason alone.

The annoying thing is that he kept picking up annoying injuries. Not minor stuff like flu and not quite the stuff that sidelines you for months like cruciate ligaments, broken feet or shit like that. Each time he comes back he twists his ankle or knee and he's out for weeks.

The fact that he got outmaneuvered and had to not run to be PM but now gets a senior position from which he can easily launch a campaign after May has had her term whilst being kept relatively clear of the potential shitstorm that will come from her choosing either to trigger or not trigger article 50 is exactly what is most like The Thick of It. Just reeks of him getting protected so he can be put in charge in a few years while promoting someone senior to be a scapegoat for the inevitable shitstorm after which they can just retire or go to a smaller role with no significant damage to the party or people perceived to be its upcoming stars.

I dunno why this triggers people so much, I just offer them what they are already on or a decent raise if they are already on peanuts and have developed into someone clearly quite important for the team. If they accept that is great and they rarely get pissed off because the offer isn't a massive insult and from there you can just negotiate as normal. Only time it is a problem is if they're old and may be due for a drop in wages but usually by that point you should be getting rid anyway.

A bit annoying to get this much money desu. This is probably the part where the game becomes boring, for me at least.

>I can now offer £78k a week wages
This is a repeat of my first ever knockout round 3 seasons ago. I haven't gotten past that round ever since. And it isn't good news: for some reason, Torino became one of the new superpowers in Italian football.

what's the best way to holiday through a lot of seasons quickly but without compromising on database size (and GOAT regen potential)?
I want to start a new save and holiday (unemployed of course) through until 2025-30, then I start my career. I want the game to maintain a lot of players for my perusal but obviously the more nations/leagues I have loaded the slower it'll be.
Should I just start a small game for the pacey wenger processing times and then use Add/Remove Leagues to bump up the player count a few years before I'm ready to start managing?

>>69533537
Gonna name him Ozil, thanks for the suggestion
>>69533534
>still no 10km eggs
sync a couple of those up to hatch with a lucky egg and I'm pretty sure that's an instant level up
>>69533611
but that's a terrible way to use a lucky egg
>>69533622
>>69533611
Best thing to do is to pop egg when they're 9.8, run like hell and hope you still have enough time to run gyms and portals. Even then, lucky eggs suck (imo).
>>69533656
but that's also clearly wrong.
>>69533622
I know 5km eggs get way more EXP than 2km eggs so I figured the EXP boost increased proportionally
so far I used both of my lucky eggs at the park that has tons of stops and evolved as many Pokemon as I could before the timer ran out
>>69533706
>evolved as many Pokemon as I could
There we go. Save up 45-50, and do nothing but evolve for 30 minutes.
>>69533656
>>69533669
What the hell is the appeal of this game? Played the gameboy game and watched the cartoon but I really dont understand whats with this thing? You just take random pictures to capture pokemon right? Why are people going crazy.
well.
>>69533741
for me it's an excuse to go out for a walk. I already went out for walks anyway but now instead of listening to music I catch Pokemon.
>>69533732
does it matter what level, or can I evolve Rattata for 30 mintes?
>>69533741
It's a pedometer that rewards you instead of lying and telling you you did a good job losing weight. Other than that it's just fun to throw shit at 3d pictures
>>69533777
if you have a Pokemon that is about to evolve into a Pokemon you didn't already have, the boost is even bigger(1000x2). You'll definitely want to wait to evolve those if you're going to use a lucky egg, otherwise it's 500 x 2 whether you're evolving a Horsea or a Pidgey or a Wartortle if you already have their respective evolutions.
>>69533741
Go back to your alcohol, old man.
>Whats with this thing
It's the closest to an IRL Pokemon game that normies have been asking for for years. It's kind of shit at doing that though, incredibly shallow game mechanics and definitely aimed at the casual as fuck audience who will play for 15 minutes a day.
>You just take random pictures to capture pokemon right
It's a touch more complicated than that, but it essentially comes down to swiping your finger on your smartphone to toss a virtual pokeball at a pokemon.
>Why are people going crazy
Pokemon is the entry level of 'le I'm so nerdy xD look at me', and since the only requirement is a somewhat recent smart phone almost everyone has access to it.
>>69533777
Nice digits.
All evolutions give the same xp from what I've seen. Rattata is actually meh since it takes 25 candy instead of 12 like Caterpie, Weedle, and Pidgy.
Don't spend stardust at all. You will catch better shit in 2-3 levels than upgrading until you're bankrupt now. Most important things to spend coins on are item backpack expansions, only other decent things are lures and those can be mooched from people playing with their credit cards.
>>69534039
it's a nice AR game and, for now, a shit Pokemon game. There are features they can still add to make it a game that actually resembles Pokemon, like NFC battles or transferring Pokemon to your Pokemon Bank.
it's sort of like Hyrule Warriors, it's a good but completely unrelated game with a coat of paint.
