So I played relegation tiebreaker and I paid salaries on March 15th. Is that how it's supposed to be? In Lithuanian forums, there were talks that the 7th seed that played relegation tiebreakers did not pay salaries. Also, Perpete mentions here (305658.175) that it's a bug. I was the 6th seed and I paid the salaries but even if that is how it's supposed to be that's still a capital loss to both teams because you're getting just a half of one-game income and you still have to pay full salaries.

your case isn't a bug while the fact that 7th seed teams not paying the salaries is certainly a bug.

But do you agree that it does not make sense? Plus it's not mentioned in the rules unless I'm missing something.

for me, it's just a price you pay for another full training week. That's a price I'd be willing to pay.

Thanks for the clarification. I believe it makes sense to add that to the game manual, it's the first time I'm experiencing a tiebreaker in the relegation but I believe more teams are unaware of it.

Players are only paid in weeks when you have a competitive league game. This means that a team not in the playoffs might not pay salaries during the last two weeks of the season, while some teams will skip one week of salaries

I'll give you it's relatively open to interpretation, but once you get the right event there is only one possibility.

Plus it's too abstract to some it may imply that regular season weeks when they play two away games they won't pay salaries which we all know is not true.
