Hey bosses, OSM World Championship is back with it's 2017 edition!

What is OSM World Championship?

OSM World Championship is an official event organized by the OSM staff for the outstanding managers in this game, based on the total number of manager points they earned during a set period. No cheaters or managers with forum bans will be allowed to join the competition and play in it, whether they were found guilty during the qualification period, after it, or during the World Championship itself.

2017 Edition of OSM WC will be played in same format as 2016 edition:
192 managers (including winners of past 3 editions that won't need to qualify for it)

3 rounds

Round 1: 16 leagues of 12 managers each » Top 3 managers from each league go through to Round 2

Round 2: 4 leagues of 12 managers each » Top 3 managers from each league go through to Round 3

Round 3: 1 league of 12 managers » The winner of the league is the OSM World Champion 2017.
Special Leagues for each round (No BCs compensation, No training camps, No Secret trainings neither transfers. Remaining features like friendlies are up to each manager to decide how many they do per round)
 What changes on this year Edition?
Only leagues with a minimum of 14 matches played on it will be taken into account

Qualification period will be between 1st December and 31st May, but only leagues that finish from 14th December onwards will be taken into account

We'll be doing random checks on managers that are on TOP 500 on this period, so if you're thinking on take a short cut to qualify, think twice.
Starting date: Not yet defined, but should be early July 2017!

@SpecialOne .
Wonderful! Managers can to start the battle of one place from 192.
But, I have a similar question, buddy.
For my example, a lot of managers like me, like to play long league. If I started the league before 1 December (ex.19th October) and ends before 14 December (ex.7th December), points will be taken into account? I think, this a very important issue.This should be clearly and specifically to explained. Before it was more simple rule: all points between 1st December 2015 and 31st May były brane were taken into consideration for qualification.

Nice work!

This restriction, however, is very bad.
"but only leagues that finish from 14th December onwards will be taken into account"

Some managers will be favored, others at a disadvantage.
The length of the qualifying period, it may end up missing the counting demand that the league has fallen behind.

Your points won't be taken into account.
You must finish your league after 14th december.
But you must play minimum 14 rounds in one league. For example if you entered England league on 10th decmber in round 37 and you play only 5 matches and finish on 15th december this points won't be taken into account.

Exactly, I agree with you. But what we can do? Nothing. We must only accept this strange rules.

If I play more then 14 matches and the league finish after 14 December will count the mps

What is strange there?
Nobody could know when the qualification period will start, so we all are in same position.
The qualifications could start on the 21. november, 15. december, 7.january or 8. march, what would be the difference? Nobod could make a plan when his leagues will finish or not, so we can not speak about ''favored'' managers or ''disatvantage''.
I spent 70% of my boss coins for last leagues because I thougt the qually period will be from 1.6 - 31.12. and what now?
Only becasue your leagues will finish few days before 14th december that not means the rules are strange...

It is not at all about me but of many managers in the same situation as me.
Why can not it be like always, from December 1, from 1 January or 1 February all counted of manager points? Only some strange restrictions. The game must be simple, clear and legible rules for all. Terribly sorry but at this moment it isn't.:man_in_tuxedo_tone1:

@Dovco_HandF
To be honest. Rules are simple, clear and legible. So I don't really get your point.

As always there are managers that dislike the date of the qualification period, because their leagues end shortly before qualification period starts. Doesn't matter if you take November 1, December 1 or any other date.

Marbel man

@SpecialOne nice

Dovco_HandF

@Luls-L You're right, buddy. Time to prepare for the fun points.:clap_tone1:
I just don't understand one thing: why again we have some changes in the rules? Really can't be the same rules every time as it used to every year?

@Dovco_HandF nice

Dovco_HandF

@Pau49Js Good luck, buddy

KGB 666

Oh,December 13 is last game of my league.

Dovco_HandF

@KGB-666 This is a terrible bad luck, buddy

SpecialOne

I really don't get all these complaints....

If you really want to take part on it and want to start accumulating points, just resign on your actual league and start a new one.

The criteria/rules (call it what ever you like) were announced before the start of qualification period. Now it's up to each one to decide what he wants to do.

About rules changing on every edition... Why should we stick always with same rules? Why should only 'old' players should take part on this event?
Just because they are longer on the game and the rules are the same, they should have advantage over new players?

I believe that some managers would like that OSM WC becomes an event where they are invited to play and not have to qualify....
