Historical Match Trends
[ 2024-12-19 13:38:39 CET ] [ Original post ]
A trend is an experimental feature that may affect match styles across different periods. Currently, there are four default trends spanning from 1870 to 2034 (From Aggressive to Defensive):
Pre-1960:
Aggressive - This trend reflects the early days of the sport when teams embraced an attack-minded approach. You can find there are a lot of high-scoring matches during this era.
1960s to 1998:
Normal - The influence of total football and Italian's Catenaccio style ended the Aggressive approach.
2002 to 2018:
Defensive - Particularly following Greece's EURO victory, which emphasized a strategy of strong defense.
2022 to 2034:
Normal - Reinstating a balanced approach similar to earlier trends.
You can check out the trends over the years by navigating to the "Records" tab. You can also add or delete a trend there.
Whenever the simulator is unable to find an existing trend, it will automatically create a new one, with the "Normal" approach being the most commonly generated style.
While this feature may increase the likelihood of certain outcomes, both teams' elo ratings and other attributes remain the key factor in how a match result unfolds.

[ 2024-12-18 15:16:21 CET ] [ Original post ]
The 1954 FIFA World Cup features over 140 national teams, each with unique historical attributes, flags, and Elo ratings. Notably, Hungary achieved an unprecedented Elo rating of 2230 on June 30, 1954, just before their final match against West Germany. This database also highlights how the Netherlands, Soviet Union, and East Germany were relatively unknown before their rise to prominence in the following decades.

New Competition - Humble World Cup
The Humble World Cup features 53 of the lowest-ranked national teams and non-FIFA teams. The top 17 ranked teams automatically qualify for the finals, while the remaining lower-ranked teams will compete in a 48-team qualifying stage. Group winners from this stage will advance to the finals, with the last three spots filled through a playoff round.
The finals will consist of a 32-team group stage, where 16 teams will progress to the knockout rounds to fight for the championship.
All CONIFA teams and Nacionalidades teams will take part in the competition, filling some of the bye slots.
The downloadable sections now allow you to "clone" them into the "New team" section.
These cloned teams will remain inactive - which means they are not eligible to participate in any competitions and their attributes will remain unchanged. You have to explicitly "add" them to make them active. All American state teams and related competitions - American Soccer Convention, President's Cup, American Civil War and America Last Cup have been moved to the "Downloadable teams" and "Downloadable competitions" sections.
Various UI updates such as ranking indicators, elo change indicators, match info tables and referee statistics tables.

This experimental section allows you to import historical winners and hosts data from various tournaments up to the year 2022 into your game. Currently, only records from the World Cups and EURO Cups are available, but there are plans to expand this feature to include additional competitions in the future.
Please note that the import feature will only work before your start the first tournament; once a tournament begins, importing data will no longer be allowed.
After you import the data, you should be able to find the related data in the "Leaderboard" tab or the "Trophies" tab in any team cards.
Since this feature is still experimental, if you plan to start the game from a year earlier than 2026, you should not use this import feature. This is because the simulator will have issues progressing when the winners have already been determined.

Updates: 22nd November,2024
In the "Teams" tab, it will now show the average elo rating of each camp.
The title history table will now has an extra "hosts" column to show the hosts for each year.
The time of goals popup has been redesigned to fit more minute details in one line as more goals are scored.
The match calculation has been adjusted again to generate even bigger results when stronger teams compete against very weak opponents. For example, it is not uncommon for Australia to score 25+ goals at home against American Samoa in the first year.

Quick Matches Section Improvements
[ 2024-11-20 12:37:36 CET ] [ Original post ]
The date filter has been improved to enable users to filter matches by a date range rather than just a single date. However, it's important to note that this filter has a limitation: you can only select dates up to one year prior. For example, if you are viewing matches from 2023, the date filter will only allow you to choose dates up to 2022.
This section now supports applying multiple filters all at once. You can now easily find matches involving a specific team within a designated date range and in a particular tournament, making it much simpler to locate specific matches instead of relying on a single filter. However, please note that you now need to click the "Search" button explicitly to perform a search.

2. All match-ups are randomly ordered, adding an element of unpredictability and excitement to the gameplay. 3. Winners of each match-up will have their Elo ratings updated, reflecting their performance in these simulated contests. Elo ratings are a method for calculating relative skill levels based on match outcomes. 4. Purge Votes Button: A "Purge votes" button allows players to reset all match-ups. 5. You can click the "Simulate all" button to run all match-ups simultaneously.

The new "Road to 270" section is inspired by the U.S. electoral system, featuring 51 match-ups, each representing a U.S. state and its corresponding electoral votes.
At the beginning, the simulator randomly selects 102 teams and divides them into two camps: red and blue. Each match-up pits one blue team (always positioned on the left) against one blue team (positioned on the right). The winner of each match-up secures the electoral votes for their camp. The first camp to reach 270 votes will be declared the election winner.

The Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) national football team was established to represent the Donetsk People's Republic, a self-proclaimed entity in eastern Ukraine. The team is not affiliated with FIFA or UEFA, which prevents it from competing in major international tournaments like the FIFA World Cup or UEFA European Championship. It has, at times, been associated with CONIFA (the Confederation of Independent Football Associations), but as of November 2022, it is no longer a member.

French Territory Cup
About 11 national teams from France's overseas territories are invited to this new tournament, which consists of three stages. It begins with a qualifying knockout round for the four lowest-ranked teams, leading into an 8-team group stage. The winners of the two groups progress to the championship match, while the remaining teams vie for placements from 3rd to 8th in the playoffs. This tournament is always hosted in France, even though the French national team will never participate in the tournament.
In the "Host Conditions" tab, a new field has been introduced that allows last year's hosts to be considered for selection in the current year.
A new setting named "Winner Rankings" has been added to the "Brackets" section for knockout stages. This feature is specifically designed for the French Territory Cup to determine team placements. It will only work when the total knockout rounds are set to 1.
The goal times have been adjusted to reduce the frequency of goals scored within the first 15 minutes of play.
All FIFA-affiliated African teams have been reorganized into five groups based on their regional sports governing bodies: UNAF, WAFU A, WAFU B, UNIFFAC, CECAFA, and COSAFA. For more details on these different zones, please refer to this Wiki page.
Saint Pierre and Miquelon, a self-governing territorial overseas collectivity of Franc, has been added to the "New Teams" section.
Corsica, an unofficial football team for the island of Corsica, France, has been added to the "Downloadable Teams" section.
International matches that took place in 2017 are simmable in the Quick Matches section. There were several less common tournaments held in that year, including CFU Caribbean Cup, UNCAF Cup, Superclsico de las Amricas.

The second group stage has been revamped to align with the format used in the 1974 World Cup. Notably, runners-up will no longer compete for the championship; only group winners will advance to the final. Runners-up will now participate in a third-place playoff. This new format will be available when you start a new game.
Two new settings have been introduced in the "Bracket" section of the editor to support the 16-team World Cup format. You can set a specific knockout bracket for either the championship match or the third-placed playoff.

Norway vs Brazil - they have never lost against Brazil competitively. 3. United States vs England 4. South Korea vs China - China has a Korea-fearing symptom

Romance of Three Kingdoms Football League Simulation
[ 2024-09-29 12:54:38 CET ] [ Original post ]
Yesterday's update introduced a new tournament: the League of Three Kingdoms! This fantasy league should give you an idea about how to use the editors to create a tournament that is more than football. The league now features 30 factions, including the legendary Wei, Wu, Shu, Yuans, Sima, and other warlords, as they compete fiercely on the football pitch.
League A's factions:
League B's factions:
Each team's attributes and ELO ratings are authentically based on their historical significance and power during this era. The Wei faction emerges as a dominant force with an impressive ELO rating of around 2200, while Wu and Shu closely follow at approximately 1900.
The league structure is pretty straightforward: 30 teams are divided into two divisions of 15. The top 2 teams from League B will rise to League A, while the bottom 2 teams in League A will face relegation.
Rivalries among several factions will enhance the league's dynamics, potentially leading to upsets and unexpected performances from some underdog teams in the simulation.
As the league exists in a fictional universe, it will not interact with real-world football teams, making it best suited for standalone play. Enjoy the unique experience of the League of Three Kingdoms!

Most 2022/23 International Matches Added to Quick Matches Section
and many more! These quick matches follow the real-life match rules. For example, if it is a knockout match, there will be no draw, but if it is a multi-nation tournament, it may have draws depending on the actual rules. Most of the matches include the actual scorelines. This allows you to compare how the simulator predicts the results versus the real-life outcomes. You can use the standings feature to check which teams perform best across different competitions throughout the entire year.
The expansion should give you enough real life international matches to simulate. For our Steam users, the simulation is unlimited both on the website and in the Steam version.

National Teams Historical Identities - Flags, Names, Squads...
You can change the default starting year of 2026 to any World Cup year. Whether it is 1600 or 2024, the simulator should be capable to handle these adjustments seamlessly, but keep in mind that the year cannot be changed once events have started.
Changing the starting year will also update the historical identities of certain teams. For instance, if the starting year is set before 2006, Serbia will be replaced by Yugoslavia, complete with the Yugoslavia flag. Currently, there are a dozen teams with historical identities available, including China, India, Canada, Spain, and various African nations, but rest assured that more identities will be added regularly. Some teams' flags has changed when you set the starting year to 1952.
Like many things in the simulator, the team identities are customizable in the "identity" tab of the team editors. You can add, remove or update the corresponding names, flags, squad images and victory images.
However, changing the year does not automatically change the attributes and elo ratings of all teams. You must import a related database (if available) corresponding to that year.
A "Team selection" setting has been added to each stage in the editor. If you set it to "manual", it will let you manually select teams before a stage begins provided that you haven't activated any team selections in the "custom team selection" editor. . The "auto" option will let the simulator do the job.
If the stage has the "manual option" enabled, you will be greeted with this section before you start the stage.
Teams above a elo discount threshold will get a discount on their attributes in that specific stage. Currently, this setting is used for competitions like Pacific Games, Island Game, Commonwealth Games and East Asia Cup where some stronger teams have fielded B squads to participate in the past. As a result of this new setting, the performance adjustment tool is no longer used for teams that typically field U23 or B squads in less significant event.
This new competition features the top 12 teams from the Caribbean Nations Cup, Pacific Games, and Island Games. The winner of each group will advance to the knockout round, where the champion will be determined. As always, you need to make a new save for this to appear.
- The donut chart will show a "-" instead of a "NaN" in the center of the chart when there are not enough match data. - Fixed a scroll stuttering issue in the "Groups" tab on team overview cards.

Commonwealth Football Games Format and Other Improvements
The Commonwealth Games will kick off with a preliminary stage, where the lowest-ranked 24 teams will be divided into 6 groups. From this stage, the top 8 teams will advance to a 48-team qualifying round.
The finals will no longer be seeded based on teams' Elo ratings. Instead, seeding will be determined by the standings from the qualifiers and playoffs, so if teams like New Zealand qualifying for the finals via the playoff round, they will be placed in the last pot.
Additionally, England will have a performance adjustment applied to this event, since it is pretty reasonable to assume that they would field a B-team for an even like this. Feel free to change the adjustment if you disagree.
The updated format will become available once you start a new save.
The "Groups" tab on the team overview card has been revamped for clarity. The previous clutter of small country flags has been replaced with a clean table layout that displays all members along with their attributes and Elo ratings.
San Marino and Liechtenstein now have an "underdog" attribute. It is because when you look at their match results in real life, they often perform better against stronger European teams than their Elo ratings suggest. This attribute will be applied with a 70% chance as long as their elo rating is below 1000.
Mali has an "extreme hot weather" attribute that will be applied when they are playing at home, since they are the hottest country in the world. Web version: https://simcups.com

Yesterday's update revealed all 24 members of the International Island Games Association (IIGA) [Web version], and today's update has introduced a new competition for these teams: the Island Games!
Competition Format:
Total Teams: 24
Groups: 6 groups, 4 teams per group.
Match Format: Single round-robin.
Qualification: The top 8 teams, including the group winners and the two best runners-up, will advance to the knockout stage to determine the ultimate winner. A third-place playoff will also be held to determine the bronze medalist.
Placement Playoff: The 16 teams that do not qualify for the knockout stage will compete in a placement playoff round to determine their final rankings. This is based on the format used in the 2023 Island Games in Guernsey, with matchups such as 15th vs 16th and 13th vs 14th and so forth.
When the Island Games competition is selected, all relevant island teams will be automatically added as active teams. Additionally, FIFA-affiliated teams like the Faroe Islands and Bermuda will have their performance attributes slightly adjusted because in the past they fielded U23 squads to take part in this event.

Quick International Friendlies Simulation
[ 2024-09-07 13:45:10 CET ] [ Original post ]
A brand new Quick Matches section has been introduced to Forever World Cup Simulator! This section lets you casually simulate match results of recent international matches and friendlies, following the real-life schedule.
This section will be prominently displayed on the homepage for a time. Afterward, it will move back to the navigation sidebar (hamburger icon).
Each page contains matches organized by month. You can use the calendar feature to select any specific month you wish to explore.
You can re-simulate as many matches as you like, and then delete them using the "Delete" button at the bottom of the page.
It is also worth noting that most matches follow their real-life rules. For instance, the Merdeka Cup in September 2024 features Malaysia vs. Philippines and Lebanon vs. Tajikistan, which can have extra time and penalty shootouts if necessary.
Additionally, certain matches, such as Russia vs. Thailand, are set to take place in neutral venues (Vietnam), so there will be no home advantage for either team.
However, keep in mind that the Elo ratings and other attributes of the teams will be impacted by the simulations. Just like the Head-to-head section, these changes cannot be undone even if you delete all friendlies results in this section. You need to delete all tournaments to reset teams' attributes.
To make navigating through matches easier, we've added a floating pagination button at the right corner of the screen. Click this button to view more matches of the same month.
Currently, the database includes matches from September and October 2024. However, you are guaranteed that more months will be added over time, ensuring that you always have the latest international matches to simulate.

2024 Aug 31 updates
The East Asian Cup (EAFF E-1) has been updated to include an additional preliminary playoff round, which will determine the final spot in the finals. This change aligns with the format of the upcoming real-life tournament.
The panel now has detailed and simple modes. The detailed mode provides a detailed and extensive match day schedule for each group round of every stage. By clicking on a specific day, you can quickly navigate to that particular stage and round. Hardcore players can use this mode to simulate matches in real-time, similar to actual events. Currently, only continental cups, World Cups, and several fictional cups have realistic match day data. The simple mode displays only the first match day of each stage, making it easier for casual players to navigate through the tournament.
You can add, remove or update all match days using the competition editor. Please note that you need to enter the date as an integer in the format "20240831" without any special characters.
An optional stage-wide group round navigation allows you to switch all group rounds in a stage with just a single click. This feature is disabled by default but can be activated in the settings.
The playlist prompt that asked you to change settings for the Futsal World Cup has been removed. Instead, a setting icon will appear in the competition card on the homepage.
It should provide an easier way to adjust futsal-related settings and import the futsal database without the need for a prompt. This change simplifies the process of customizing the game for the Futsal World Cup.
- Competition logos on the homepage will now be displayed according to the latest year, rather than randomly displayed on page change. - Added more squad photos to many futsal football teams.
