Yeah, it was the coach who made the decision of not letting him play in the initial 5. You have to use "strictly follow depth chart" for him to play in the initial 5.

Didn't see this thread at first when I created the thread/post above.

The affected player dropped 2 levels of GS from the prior week due to this.

What coaching orders did you give? If you picked "Let Coach Decide," I would argue that the coach made the correct decision. If you picked "Strictly Follow Depth Chart," then your argument may be very valid. Can you check which orders you used?


This seems like a bug, not simply the coach choosing one player over another. Why, when I'm winning by 50+ points, doesn't the coach then put in the player he skipped over as starter? Then the backup would have only 26 mins, not 38. For the week he'd have 89 mins instead of 101.

I'll play it safe from now on, using SFDC, but that doesn't seem like much of a fix.

In my Game tonight i wanted my 3. PG Armendariz to start the Game, and my "better" PG Henderson to Backup. Advice to the Coach was "until 4. Quarter" to be sure Armendariz will play a lot.

Instead of this, Henderson started the game, played over 30 minutes in the first 3. quarters, but was NOT be substituted in the 4th , while i was leading with over 30 points and all other Starters were substituted.

What i think: A bug let him start, but under the "blow out-Rule" he is again handled like an Backup and so he played the 4. Quarter too.

Its not funny, instead of ca. 68 minutes like expexted he hat now 89 Minutes this week, and my 3. PG only 7 instead of ca. 30.

Please find that problem soon !

This problem has happened to me this time:

Player Rómulo Hugo Zapata (2551795) was set to backup, and Gian Piero Pallini (2937362) was set as starter. Orders to the coach were "Coach Picks from Depth Chart".

When the match started, Rómulo Hugo Zapata (2551795) was a starter, and Gian Piero Pallini (2937362) backup. Looking to the minutes played I guess orders were "Follow strictly".

30 min before the match, I checked my line-up and it was all OK. I did not click on "send orders" again. I did not make any change.

Regards.

edit: Zapata is better player and with better game shape than Pallini. So the change could be logical.
