Honestly, think about this rule once again. It's not a challenge. It's ridiculous.

Letztes Heimspiel: 9575 Fans (65% voll)


With an income like that you could as well cancel any promotion via bot promotion. Best i can do is TANKING, which is one of the most hated tactics in BB. But if i can choose between nothing but tanking and bankruptcy, guess what i'm gonna do???

You still promoted in a better league and your fans are happy. If they do not fill your arena, it's not just because there is no boost promotion, it's also because you didn't chose the right prices.
I didn't choose the right prices because there is no boost promotion…


Your team, you do what you want.
Agree.

There is a promotion boost, but it's not as big as the boost from direct promotion.

Your fanbase is still growing though, and will eventually catch up with your leaguemates. There is one big drawback to your situation, and that's a level 1 PR manager, you should get a better one ASAP. Therefore, I wouldn't base my entire season strategy on attendance numbers so early, after two defeats while also hurting from high prices and (basically) no PR manager. Give it a bit of time, get a good PR manager, adjust arena prices and your teams attendance revenue will get closer to other teams in your league.

All that being said, your case has shown that the bot promotion boost is a bit too low, and considering you don't get any promotion money either, we decided to increase that boost a little bit, starting next season.

EDIT: It was brought to my attention that bot promotion does carry the promotion bonus money. This fact does not change the decision the implement the small increase in bot promotion fanbase boost.

I don't know how to explain that my last game against last in division (not TV game, or rival game) had more attendance than my game against 2nd place team. I was leading the league in both cases and survey was 4,5 stars before 1st game and 5 stars before 2nd game.

Exact numbers:
12.4.2014 Big Ballz 11527 2271 215 18 14031
22.4.2014 Blok M Walkers 10374 2250 221 18 12863

There are many factors that affect attendance, not just match results. I cannot give you all the details because that would be too revealing but reasons for these numbers can be found if everything is taken into account, publicly known and unknown factors.
