So that won't effect him then will it? That's what I would have thought.

"An announcement for the next season is also in order. We are changing the effect of forfeits in a way that each forfeit drops the forfeiting team one place in the draft. "


This means Next Season, not this season. If it happens this seasons I think a lot of people have been mislead.


I also think the change will be next season, at least i'm hoping it otherwise i wasted a training for nothing :D

"The next season" for the start of season announcements means the season about to start.

The announcement was posted over a week after season 24 was under way. At that time, next season means season 25. Especially since every other reference to season 24 in the posts uses this season.

Just poor writing on the part of BB - something not too uncommon.

If one forfeit will result in one spot lower, how about 10, or even 16 forfeit games? 10 or 16 spots lower? Sounds like 15 is the max as there are 16 teams in each league.

Another fine example of 'taking your lumps'. If you made the mistake and forfeited a game (mistake or planned) there is a consequence. If you were happy to exploit a loop hole in your favor but got caught out... deal with it.

It's like zooming up that inside lane on the busy road and the opening closes by the time you get to the merging lane end. Are you one of the guy's who gets angry at the poor driver doing the right thing and staying in line in the traffic, or do you think to yourself, oh well I gave it a shot and it didn't pay off, better luck next time or maybe I might just stay in line and not try and take compromise others for personal gain.

This may sound harsh, but really, what kind of strategy is forfeiting? If it is a strategy, think of what it has done to your opposition, handicapped their training plans, ruined GS, hurt their top players on MVP or categorise list leads, what kind of strategy is this?

Things go wrong in this game and things may need improvement from time to time, but blaming a sentence that you have only questioned AFTER the season is done and getting miffed that you compounded YOUR mistake in forfeiting with not checking YOUR strategy till after the season is, well....
