ab: Summary: This paper describes a new generation online soccer manager. More
    than 210,000 users operate TopLeague and the Official Bundesliga
    Manager, complex real-time soccer simulators that are based on actual
    data of real professional soccer players. The underlying technology is
    a hierarchical three-tier multiagent system that consists of autonomous
    BDI agents and allows dynamic group structures (e.g. an emergent
    situation for a wing attack). The German Bundesliga, one of the most
    prestigious soccer leagues in the world, adopted this AI system for
    their official web site. The online games run seamlessly in a web
    browser with a state-of-the-art 3D visualization engine. Fundamental
    research within the domain of the RoboCup simulation league is the
    basis for this technology. We will describe the architecture of the
    multiagent system (MAS) in this paper, discuss motion capture
    techniques for graphical animation, and reveal details about user
    acceptance of the games.
