I decided to do a story on my career at Team United States Government (USG), which the US Government sponsored. The thing is that you can only have Americans on the team!
I am playing with original Cyandie DB on Normal difficulty. I am just a beginner and this is my first story so ant tips would be helpful. I am playing on 1.0 for Evalution of Attributes.
I didn't think of doing a story on it untill 2011 season though so here is what happened in 2010:

I would recommend you to post the images instead of a link to the image. It looks much better and is more attractive to read.

Like this.
Put [img] tags around the address of the photo.
It should look like the following.

Okay, so I downloaded the PCM daily DB. Should I start over using the new DB in 2010 with the same idea, or should I continue my season in 2011 without the old DB? Any advice? |

When you upload your photos you should see a list of codes to use for each image (eg. Forum, HTML...), copy the forum code and paste it here, think that should work. |

I use imageshack too. If you upload more than 1 pic it takes you to your pics. From there hit the little eye on the pic you want and copy the code that say forum. If you do it that way you dont need to put the [img] codes beside it after, because it already does it for you.

You need to raise the difficulty according to me.
Do you think it is fun to finish top 3 on all races?

I think you are right. I was not this good before, so I must be improving. I will raise the difficulty to hard. |
