URL HOOK

Single Player

#single-missing-team
Open to everyone

One bookmark drops you into a Missing Team round at the difficulty and player type you pin in the URL. Easy or Normal with All players is open to everyone — Hard/Extreme or a specific player type asks you to sign in first.

Pattern

/games/missing-team?difficulty=<easy|normal|hard|extreme>&status=<all|active|retired>#single-missing-team

Params go before the hash. Leave them off for a quick Normal / All-players game:

/games/missing-team#single-missing-team
Open

Or pin a tougher combo:

/games/missing-team?difficulty=hard&status=retired#single-missing-team
Open

More combinations

Mix any difficulty with any player type — a few handy ones:

Easy warm-up, current players only
/games/missing-team?difficulty=easy&status=active#single-missing-team
Open
Retired legends, normal difficulty
/games/missing-team?status=retired#single-missing-team
Open
Hardest test — extreme, all players
/games/missing-team?difficulty=extreme#single-missing-team
Open

Parameters

difficultyeasy · normal (default) · hard · extreme

The round's difficulty.

statusall (default) · active · retired

Which footballers to draw from. Guests are limited to “all”.

Unknown or missing values fall back to the defaults — a malformed link still starts a game.

Behavior

  • On page load the hash is read once and cleared via history.replaceState — refreshing doesn't re-trigger the start.
  • Guests can start Easy/Normal with All players; their results aren't ranked.
  • If a signed-out visitor pins Hard/Extreme or a specific player type, the link sends them to sign in and resumes the exact game afterwards.
