i tried a while ago to register to manager zone but i found out that you must live in one of the countries listed which i don't (New Zealand). it says it is forbidden to register in a country you don't live in. Does anyone know how to get round this problem so i can register??:S

Well it says you need to be based in a country to have the team, so do what i did. I now live in Adelaide half the year, just so i can play Managerzone ;)

Have you tried registering as from Australia? It'll probably let you do that.

Theoretically yes...but if a GA (and there are MANY of them nowadays) catches you...your team is done.

A GA looks at the IP address of the last few logins and then bans them if they don't have the first three numbers the same as the country (in your case Australia) does.

Because every country has it's own top league, player names, team names (which are ofcourse changeable), and it makes it more user friendly that way.

So if my team were to be promoted into Australia's top league while i am logged in in New Zealand i would get banned?

yes but new zealand and australia are different countries:| essentially scotland and england are part of one country...so it is different.

but not on this game they are not because Scotland will be added as a seperate county eventually.

Canadians were allowed to sign up as USA before Canada was added I think. Not sure about that though

Nope, I doubt about canadians...Johan, could you clear it up for us? I heard about some New Zealand people playing under the Australian flag...I am Swiss and still managed to get up to the German Bundesliga, even while the Swiss league was being played :rolleyes: :rolleyes: . Then Steve banned me :( :f***:
