In the perception of most people, the Guinness World Record is a goal that ordinary individuals find difficult to achieve, despite encompassing countless aspects of life. For gamers, being listed in the Guinness records is often said to be “harder than reaching the sky,” as milestones can easily be toppled over time. However, recently, a gamer, who is respected and hailed as the “king of patience,” succeeded in conquering this book, even though his record is somewhat unique.
The main character in this story is Pawel Sicinski – a loyal supporter of Manchester United Football Club. With immense faith and love for his beloved team, Pawel – a fan of the Football Manager game series – dedicated all his time to “coaching” the Red Devils. After a long period of effort, Pawel is recognized to have spent 416 years and 134 days in his save game, thereby setting a new Guinness World Record.
Specifically, Pawel started with the 2018 season, and currently, in his save, his MU team has entered the year 2424, which is exactly 416 years later. And don’t think that this guy just played and left the machine running to complete the record. In his 416 years, Pawel led MU to win a total of 1,258 titles and played 22,300 matches. The team coached by Pawel Sicinski scored a total of 58,900 goals, averaging about 2.64 goals per match. If such a coach and team existed in real life, their prefix would surely be “the greatest team in human history.” And perhaps, MU fans can only dream of that.
According to a general statistic, even when trying to simplify everything as much as possible, a typical FM player usually spends about 10 hours to complete their season. If we do a simple calculation, many people would be surprised to learn that Pawel has, at the very least, spent 4,600 hours (approximately 191 days). This means he has dedicated a significant amount of time to his MU club over the past 4 years. Truly, a devoted fan.
