The official, licensed FIFA Soccer 2007 product must be used, and no separate patches are allowed. (No arbitrary changes allowed)
Multitool patch must be used.
In addition, the abilities of teams and players cannot be modified arbitrarily.
Graphic and other setting may only be setup through the menu. (Configuration file cannot be used) Maximum allowed resolution is 1024x768x32
Players on both sides must select the options before they begin the game. The match result will be accepted even if the players find out that each others' settings were different afterwards.

.Forbidden Moves

The player must kick-off with backward pass at the beginning of each half and after every goal is scored.
It is not allowed to cross the ball directly into the small area from a corner kick.
It is not allowed to score a goal from one's own half of the field.
The Rocket-Shot is not allowed.
The use of the Q+A, Q+D and Q+W keys are forbidden if done from one's own midfield.
It is not allowed to score a goal from a computer taken free kick.
Modifying one's team in order to deactivate the covering of the opponent is not allowed. Therefore, if "player A" wants to modify his line-up, tactic or formation, he must send the ball out of bounds once he completes his changes thus allowing his opponent ("player B") to make any necessary adjustments. Once "player B" has made the adjustments, he too is required to kick the ball out of bounds thus returning the ball to "player A".
A video of the top four "forbidden moves" can be seen here:

In any case, a goal scored due to the use of a "forbidden move" shall be disallowed.

Player Etiquette
It is your responsibility to ensure that the Multitool and FIFA Bot is on and working during your match. If in any case a dispute is brought up and either one is inactive, your dispute will be null and void.

The usage of Demo Rec is optional.

It is your responsibility to bring up any disputes as early as possible whether it is during the course of the match or after the match. Once the results are official, any disputes will not be entertained.

Should a player persist in playing with forbidden moves, he may be disqualified from the tournament. It is at the discretion of the referee, during a match, to determine what actions are unfair plays. Upon discovery of any player committing any violations regarded as unfair play, that player will be penalized. Penalties may consist of but are not restricted to, warnings, yellow cards, or disqualification. The next violation after two yellow cards will result in disqualification.

Setting Up Demo Rec and FIFA Bot

Long Ball

Players are not allowed to use any kind of long ball from their own half. ( Where the ball travels from own half to another half )
-Long passes to opponent's half
-Defensive clearance

If the players accidentally clear or use the long ball, player will have to kick the ball out of play or pass/lose the ball to their opponent immediately. Same goes to the case as below
-Unintentionally clearance due to delay
-Automatic reaction from defender


..... nice ... "JOGA BONITO" .... icon_rolleyes.gif



If referee decides that external conditions (Press, Team Leader, Player, Spectator, etc) give unfair advantage to a player,
the player may be given a warning or lose by default at the referee's sole discretion.

What kind a "external conditions" .. unsure.gif
I cannot elbow players is it ?

What do you mean by blindly copying wcg rules?

Anyway, it says any kind of longball, that usually refers to airball. So using 'S' to clear is ok as 'S' is a ground passing. While using 'A' or 'D' is forbidden in this case.

I think the rule means external conditions such as people kacau-ing the gamers during play...by means of shouting...good rule there! nod.gif


Luige i wanna ask a few questions here...so basically the rule is cannot send a long ball from own half to the opponent's half right?

1. What if the ball was cleared from my own penalty box and it drops back into my own half? The game will continue fairly and there's no need to kick the ball out of play?

2. How about if the ball was cleared high up to the opponent's half, but then the opponent wins the ball. We can continue the game fairly without kicking the ball out of play?

Just want to let you know also that sometimes AI will auto-clear the ball for you when it's under a dangerous situation inside your own penalty box...

I agree. "D" is last ditch attempt at clearing, NOT trying to gain advantage. and AI will auto do it in extreme situations, wether you like it or not. This is different to "A" where you are passing the ball to your teammate, as with "D", the ball will go wildly like in real life. I hope we can clarify this, as with bpwx, it will be tough to adhere the rules when not all ppl are reading it or understanding it fully.
P/S: I thought it was club also? XD

Now i'm thinking can we even play long balls to change from sides to sides? It's a very important tactic in football to send a long ball from 1 side to another side...especially to create a counter attack...and please don't tell me by creating counter attacks is also a forbidden move please sweat.gif

What i can really suggest is...if the rule has to stand where long balls are forbidden to be used on own half to the opponent's half...then please state some exceptions out...remember the rule is implemented for fair play...and the fair play issue is to avoid a chance for a striker to receive a long ball and then have the 1v1 chance against the keeper...so please stress the rule on such situations only...

That means if by any chance a player presses A or D and the ball goes all the way to the striker...then the ball should be played out straight away...if he continues to use the striker to run towards the goal and scores...the goal is not counted...so the exceptions will be:

1. Clearance by using D or A are allowed. This applies only if the ball drops in your own half.

2. Sending long balls around the field is allowed BUT sending a long ball straight to the striker (which will look darn obvious) to create a 1v1 chance from your OWN HALF is forbidden. If such situation occurs, the player should kick the ball out of play or else a warning will be issued.

Luige i respect the marshal decisions on setting the rules but please understand that we are the gamers and i think the gamers know the game best and also our feedbacks are quite important to assist in setting up a better and fairer rules. I myself never use the long ball tactic at all but i just think by banning all long balls in own half regardless of any situations is too absurd. So i hope my suggestions will be noted as i think they are quite fair and wouldn't create troubles also. If you don't think the rules are good, i hope to know what are the bad sides of them. I hope to get a reply for my questions as well, thanks. smile.gif

And yeah, i know rules are meant for fair play...but to think in a rational way...banning all long balls in own half doesn't solve the issue only but it also creates problems...i don't see any unfair plays that will happen even if long balls are still allowed...as we all still know, the only unfair play issue is to send a long ball straight to the striker to create a 1v1 chance against the keeper

To make it simple, clearence by "D" is allowed. Some might cry foul if "A" is also allowed as it WILL try to pass to your teammate.
And yes, we do feel that we have the right on say on how to play the game, as WE ARE the ones going to play it. Too much rules will definately kill the mood for gamers, and a bane to their gameplay.

We all should remember why the long ball is an issue here...it's because we do not want to have the lame and easy way for the striker to get a 1v1 chance against the keeper...so even if you use A in your own half, as long as you don't send a long ball straight to your striker which results in creating a 1v1 chance...then it's still reasonable and the game can continue to be played fairly

Yeah we all should know why tournaments are held...to only promote the companies and sponsor brands? Are that the only reasons? I believe the main reason is to help grow the gaming community in Malaysia as well...gamers join tourneys to have the experience and to learn to be better...gamers are the ones who will play and compete in the tourney...you can't say "Ahhh why do we care about the gamers complaints...just set a normal list of rules and then continue with it...they want to play then they play...or else don't join"...this is not a reason to why more tourneys are held every year...i believe organizers do also hope the gamers feel better and happy in participating tourneys so that they will join again next year to support the tourneys...if really such absurd rules are implemented...gamers feel it's unreasonable and there's no fun to it...then less gamers will bother about the tourneys or putting efforts in coming all they way from other states to join the tourneys...besides that if we play and train under such different rules here, how do you expect if the gamers are to compete in the world finals which have a different set of rules?

I believe the FIFA gamers out there will give a lot of feedback to you. Mean while, fellow gamers, when you want to give any suggestion, make it like a suggestion, don't make it looks like a complain. It will look like a cold war between gamers and marshals

Thanks !

Let me tell you my experience of playing with the new rules. I tried around 4-5 games with the new rule, and i think it is almost impossible to play without using 'D' at own half. There are certain situation where you really have to clear without even thinking. There was also this situation where, my defender was surrounded by opponents' strike force, and i still resist myself from using 'D', it ended up i give the ball away to the striker and that striker get a one on one situation and i conceded a goal. It's pretty frustrated in this case where i think forbidding myself from using D cause me that goal.

What happen if the usage of 'A' is forbidden at own half? This is what happen. I got a fullback who is holding the ball, who is pressured by a winger and a striker. I couldn't pass forward as my path is blocked. The only thing i can do is to lob the ball using 'A' to the other fullback so that i can have a clear path to attack. But i can't do that as 'A' is forbidden at own half. So I hope the 'A' button is still usable as it is part of one's strategy in attacking. The other kind of move that i can do is to pass back to my goalkeeper to send to another fullback, but this will make the opponent want to complain that i am trying to 'waste time'.

I know it is hard to satisfy everyone, but this is just my suggestion and my experience here playing with the new rule. I have a suggestion that is to use the new WCG rule v2.0 to solve most of the problems.

Thank You

Thanks for looking into my suggestions luige smile.gif

Yeah we know that it's hard for you to make decisions as well and you can't satisfy each of us here...but i believe most of us have the same views on rules...even if there are some different rules...you always have the rights to choose which suggestions are best and fairest to you.

Yeah no offend here...i'm sorry if my posts looked like a bunch of complaints to you...but all i was trying to do was to sound what i have in my mind and hope a best list of rules will be used at the end of the day...thanks again for reading our posts and considering our suggestions again.

QUOTE(bpwx @ Sep 22 2007, 02:37 PM)
Yea, we all know you're trying your best luige and we really appreciate it... It's not easy to make FAIR rules as FIFA 2007 is just so damn BUGGY...

About Accelerator7's suggestion, I want to ask about another situation :

I made a clearance and when the ball was high in the air, my player WON the challenge for the ball with another opposing player by chesting the ball..... He then proceeds to out-run the defender, making it a 1v1 chance....Does this count as a "long ball straight to the striker for a 1v1" chance? For me, I don't think so as you have to WIN the ball.... For me, the "long ball straight to the striker" is like, just doing the long ball and AUTOMATICLY getting a 1v1 chance without problems.. My situation was needing to WIN the ball in the air, and actually out-running the defender....So what about my problem?
*
It is this kind of situations that spark a long argument and headaches to the marshals...so i think the best way is to appoint a marshal to monitor each game that's going on...if the marshal thinks it's unfair then the ball should be kicked out of play immediately by the order of the marshal...and that's why to avoid things like that...just don't send a long ball to the striker which will end up something like an easy 1v1 chance...just don't send a long ball to the strikers...if you did it after a clearance...then just kick the ball back to your own half to continue a fair play, just kick the ball out of play or just let the opponent wins the ball...well the problems are huge already and try not to bombard the marshals with more questions...sometimes just play by your own senses of sportsmanship...you do what's right and complain what's wrong in a reasonable and sportsmanship way...that's the best biggrin.gif

But i can't do that as 'A' is forbidden at own half. So I hope the  'A' button is still usable as it is part of one's strategy in attacking. The other kind of move that i can do is to pass back to my goalkeeper to send to another fullback, but this will make the opponent want to complain that i am trying to 'waste time'.

I know it is hard to satisfy everyone, but this is just my suggestion and my experience here playing with the new rule. I have a suggestion that is to use the new WCG rule v2.0 to solve most of the problems.

Thank You

Now i'm thinking can we even play long balls to change from sides to sides? It's a very important tactic in football to send a long ball from 1 side to another side...especially to create a counter attack...and please don't tell me by creating counter attacks is also a forbidden move please sweat.gif

What i can really suggest is...if the rule has to stand where long balls are forbidden to be used on own half to the opponent's half...then please state some exceptions out...remember the rule is implemented for fair play...and the fair play issue is to avoid a chance for a striker to receive a long ball and then have the 1v1 chance against the keeper...so please stress the rule on such situations only...

That means if by any chance a player presses A or D and the ball goes all the way to the striker...then the ball should be played out straight away...if he continues to use the striker to run towards the goal and scores...the goal is not counted...so the exceptions will be:

1. Clearance by using D or A are allowed. This applies only if the ball drops in your own half.

2. Sending long balls around the field is allowed BUT sending a long ball straight to the striker (which will look darn obvious) to create a 1v1 chance from your OWN HALF is forbidden. If such situation occurs, the player should kick the ball out of play or else a warning will be issued.

Luige i respect the marshal decisions on setting the rules but please understand that we are the gamers and i think the gamers know the game best and also our feedbacks are quite important to assist in setting up a better and fairer rules. I myself never use the long ball tactic at all but i just think by banning all long balls in own half regardless of any situations is too absurd. So i hope my suggestions will be noted as i think they are quite fair and wouldn't create troubles also. If you don't think the rules are good, i hope to know what are the bad sides of them. I hope to get a reply for my questions as well, thanks.  smile.gif

And yeah, i know rules are meant for fair play...but to think in a rational way...banning all long balls in own half doesn't solve the issue only but it also creates problems...i don't see any unfair plays that will happen even if long balls are still allowed...as we all still know, the only unfair play issue is to send a long ball straight to the striker to create a 1v1 chance against the keeper

cool...the problem is well stated here and i believe your proposed solution is the best so far to meet all parties requirements.

I have question on following rules which are not well clarified, hope can get some answer soon.

RULES:
Players are not allowed to use any kind of long ball from their own half. ( Where the ball travels from own half to another half )
-Long passes to opponent's half
-Defensive clearance

QUESTIONS:
What if i make long passes using S or W, is it still considered legal move?
Or can i say that as long as the LONG passes is on the ground (S or W), it will be considered legal move ?


RULES:
It is not allowed to score a goal from a computer taken free kick.

QUESTIONS:
What do you mean?
