Football Managers Chart #4

It's time for an update of the most important chart of them all, the Football Managers Chart. Not every time I update a chart I look at all the details, but this time around I've updated the number of languages supported and the current season for a few of the entries, just take a look at Sports-Manager, last time it was in it's 35th season, now it's in 48th.

For the first time since I make those charts a game goes up a place. Soccer Project took over FreeKick, but it was after the registration of a whopping 4 865 (17.71%) new users. It's clear that this growth is not a natural one and it's caused by an event, maybe some media exposure. We'll see how many of those new managers will stick around to keep Soccer Project over FreeKick.

I can't not notice how some German BB MMOGs have some good numbers, too good to be true actually. Beside Soccer at Manager Games, about witch I have strong beliefs that lies about their 127 165 users, reason of witch I haven't included them in the charts, there is also Soccer Manager witch has 7 254 (40%) more users than last time. Sports-Manager and Goalz are doing pretty damn good too.

I have also added Trophy Manager, a candidate to top 5 that I've missed until now.
