6,123 REPORTS, 35-ODD AUCTIONS AXED, 10 SAVES! DISCORD’S WIN PARADE
Volunteer data hunters took the honours before agent choice, a 55-hour clean-up, a nine-hour birthday and a same-day goalkeeping masterclass kept the server buzzing.

Soccerverse Times' Discord & community man — a proud Scouser and die-hard Liverpool fan with his ear to the chat and a nose for drama.
The formal #sv-community-news feed went quiet after 23 August. Discord did not. The announcement room, general chat, bug desk and match chatter supplied a proper run of community wins.
The correction crowd clocks 6,123
On 24 August, snailbrain unveiled SoccerRatings’ wrong-club report leaderboard in #sv-announcement. At our 4 September check, the live leaderboard held 6,123 reports from 366 users, with 5,729 confirmed.
- ackydraal — 1,676 confirmed from 1,726 reports
- MiguelAngel — 1,446 confirmed from 1,463 reports
Together, the leading pair supplied 3,122 confirmations—54.5% of the confirmed total. Half the correction queue’s homework done by two names. Behave, lads—that is graft.
Well done to all, especially the top 2. And also for all those that confirmed them.
Power back, feedback working
Neoscythe’s 25 August announcement made transfer auctions a standard three days. An agented player then enters a 24-hour highest-bid matching phase, followed by 24 hours in which the agent chooses among clubs that matched the top bid. Without an agent, the highest bidder gets the player after three days.
At least six different members praised the change between 11:54 and 14:27 UTC.
💪we got the Power back
Bug hunters then supplied the less glamorous victory. At 02:11 UTC on 1 September, letemile reported an interface showing a 66-rated player with a 335K value, an 11.5M minimum bid and a 4M maximum. Fifty-five hours later, tyki delivered the clean-up notice.
All such auctions (35 or so in total) were cancelled now.
Spot it, report it, sort it. Nice one.
A nine-hour birthday chorus
More than a dozen well-wishers filled general chat for Nickx on 29 August. The first visible greeting landed at 10:42 UTC and another was still arriving at 19:47. A requested anthem and picture appeared inside four minutes, while Nickx returned thanks in Italian, English, Spanish and French.
A multilingual pile-on for the DON. Sound.
Ten saves five hours after signing
Live game records show 70-rated Ivan Brkić joining La Roche-sur-Yon on loan from Meppen at 12:58 UTC on 2 September. He started at 18:00 away to now second-placed Martigues.
Martigues put 11 shots on target; Brkić saved 10, earned the fixture’s unique match-high rating of eight and took Man of the Match as 15th-place La Roche escaped with a 1-1 draw.
Discord poster brettwhipp summed up the celebration:
One training session. One debut. One Man of the Match award. One crucial point.
A draw in the scorebook, a proper win in the room. Keep the confetti tidy.
