Hello,

In the French 1st league (ProA), we are faced with a "bug" in rivalry's choices in conference 1.
http://www.buzzerbeater.com/league/275/overview.aspx
I know rivalries are randomly chosen, but currently 3 teams are rivals of 2 others !
Thus 3 teams will not be rival to another, which is illogical and create a clear advantage to them.

Here is a summary of the situation :
basket haute gironde (35730) : rival of SViBiDi (35632) and Cercle Saint-Pierre (84574).
Cercle Saint-Pierre (84574) : rival of basket haute gironde (35730) and Slashers11 (35551).
Joruus (88283) : rival of CB Caen (85064) and TeemoBoyz (85705).

The 3 teams which are rivals of nobody :
ES Arnould (35815)
Slashers11 (35551)
TeemoBoyz (85705)

This problem could establish a significant imbalance during the season.
Could you please correct this unfair situation before the start of the season 28?
Thank you in avance for the resolution of this issue.

It's pretty common, unfortunately. I have been the rival to two different teams many times, and occasionally upon promoting not been a rival to anyone. I agree that it sucks, but I don't think it will be considered as a bug.

Sure. I agree with hrudey, it's not a bug. Also, the rivalries are not randomly chosen, and that's why some leagues have their rivalries more "grouped".

Like hrudey said this is something common and not a bug. For example, in my conference there are teams with 2 rivals and some other with none.

There is nothing to be done :(

Well thanks... Thus when something is unfair and create a real imbalance in a league, doing nothing and letting it go is the best option for you? With that kind of thinking, we are not going forward, we are going backwards!

Of course it is not the first time this inequitable situation happens in a league, but here more pronounced than usual. That is why I put the word "bug" between quotation marks at the start of the topic... Everybody recognizes that it is unfair... But it is better to do nothing to change it? Well let's bury our heads in the sand like an ostrich! -_-

Interesting, can you give us some insight or it's one of those secret things of the game? :)

You have been answered by EGM-Perpete but it seems like you don't like the arguments presented. This is OK, we cannot all have the same opinions, but please refrain from repeating yourself.
Also, not everyone agrees that it's unfair, as it's based on a real life situation.

@LA-Biffo: Nice try
