However for me the discussion(not the insert of Nt trophies,eh) is closed

You are commenting on dynamic changes that are related to enthusiasm changes and so on. That I can certainly understand is very messy as well as changing game engine and so on. To improve that must certainly be difficult. You must try to the best of your capacity understand what might happen with changes in a little bit improvement in blocking for a player in terms of match progress and so on and then try to find an efficient way of testing it. I really find this very difficult to get well. In fact this is probably the main part they been dealing with during the years the site built up. I am impressed by how well they solved this and created a simulator that makes sense.

But my two examples of NT trophys and publishing results from past NT & U21 tournaments deals with something very different to what you describe. Here the process is already over. What you need to do is to look at history matches for NT and U21 teams and look at tags for them and then recalculate the final tables to show them in exactly the same format as current season. You would have to add a bar as well to that. For an experienced programmer do I still doubt that this is not pretty easy. I do believe that it might take maybe even some working days before it is finished though as even pretty simple things can take a long time.

Regarding the trophies would that also be linked to previous seasons. And to based on NT & U21 database (might be in same database of course) be able to figure out what teams that played the final and to add a trophy to team does not sound difficult. And there actually is a team ID for national teams. Starting from 1 for seniors and 1001 for U21.

For me at least it is a huge difference between a finalized (as in past results) database and a dynamic ever changing database. That it is almost a hopeless situation to go back in time if a bug occur is for me very understandable.

But even if I got the impression that both the NT trophy and the NT history tournaments (now implemented actually) are relatively easy things to implement it must not be so. I could be very wrong. I did though ask JuicyPats if he knew this or just assumed it without anything to back it up with because if so I think that he can have a bit more gentle responses than to pretty heavily mark words from users that might even be justifiable.

There is doubtless a fair amount of desingers and artists playing HT, in the logo designing federation. Maybe they could help designing the new trophies.

Sorry to bring it back and I know that this is hard to implement. Any chance of team jerseys in the near (or far) future?
