There is 3 possible solutions for this problem...or "problem":

1...To remove variable called enthusiasm completely or to hide information about enthusiasm from game report (later is much more, if not only possible imo)

2...Leave it as it is now

3....Redesign that variable (almost) completely (this option requires large in-depth analysis) in order to be more realistic & fair.

Imo best solution is option 3, means that enthusiasm need fine tuning and adjusting...

Can't we just quit complaining about TIE? It is an option to do so, so just accept that as a fact. You take a risk by playing TIE and that's it. There have been so many threads about this already, you can keep on asking BB or GM's for their point-of-view but it has been said and done. If you have suggestions on how to change stuff post them in the suggestion forum. That's what it's there for.


if there have been so many complains about it, maybe it means there is something wrong with it?

Don't forget about the thread in favor of Mutual TIEs!

(But I do think most of the people in favor of them think the TIE/normal/CT system is ridiculous and wish it would be abolished.)

And what tool will you suggest that will both make you able to strategize for the long term and not collude with other teams? We've heard a lot about how "mutual TIEs are evil". About alternative ideas, not so much.

I don't want to believe that you want to punish people who don't want to participate in any kind of pregame speculation!?! I mean, in modern societies trying to organize the development of a game in an official competition is punishable by law!! And you think NOT doing it should be punished!! I'd like to hear more sensible reasons for this?

Removing it from the game report for example! Come and offer me a TIE then...surely, I'll be accepting it!!! ;)

The BBs have said it's legal, period.

If you want to bore yourself with yet another debate on this, go here:
