You are right. Just the 10% basic cost was removed. I'll rewrite the news to make it more clear.

Please, could someone explain me blank lineup prevention in detail, as it is not clear for me from the news. I imagined it will not work at all, but it seems it still works but with some restrictions. So what are these restrictions and will it be still reasonable to use blank lineup? More you know, share it please, I will be very thankful.

Nothing spectacular, but some small changes that might help balancing. Like the training changes although I would of do it a bit differently - full training could be achieved with more minutes played.

The ask a BB-day on wednesday? Meh, weekend would of been better, but okay. I don't feel the urge to ask anyway ;)

I like what's going to happen with finals most of all. Purposefully prolonging a series to 3 games can be unfair, and just creates more things that have to be coded before the new season starts. I also think it would be best if the tie-breaker game were played on a neutral court. Great start to the new season.

I still think that if the manager with home court advantage wins game 1, they are still going to tank game 2 away from their court to make sure that they have maximum enthusiasm advantage going into game 3 at their home court. Even with a neutral court game 3, the same situation will still happen. It wouldn't be as effective as their home court, but it still be better than trying to win the away game in the finals.

"So, as of this season, attendance income of the third match is replaced with rewards for both the league winner and the runner up, whether or not there ends up being a tie-breaker game. The amount of the reward should be pretty similar to the average tie-breaker match income, so teams don’t lose out under this new system."


1. Equal rewards to each team? Or pro-rated according to the relative sizes of the two arenas?

2. Or, the attendance for games one and two are increased by 50%, and there is no attendance money for game three??? That fits perfectly the description of "whether or not there ends up being a tie-breaker game" ... and "pretty similar to the average tie-breaker match income."

3. Arenas already usually sell out for the finals. Will the size of the arenas have to be 50% bigger to allow such a big boost? Or, put another way, if one or both of the arenas isn't large enough, will that limit the reward?

Thanks for any clarification you can offer.
