so not being positive means whining.

I dont enter every forum and talk about every topc. I voice my opinion on things i feel will make the game better. That is not whining. That is giving an opinion. There are a lot of great things about this game and that is why i play it. But when teams are organizing their enthusiam instead of playing the game especially something that is unheard of in real life i will voice my opionion and hope someone will agree and try to put something better into affect.

I apologize if you dont understand this, If you would like i will start talking about every topic the good and the bad. I let others talk about the things they feel should be changed and if i have a strong opionion i will get involved if not i just read through. So if you have nothing to say about he topic then stop writing about my opions. This is not a personnel debate between us so try and stay on topic.

Isn't organizing the enthusiasm part of playing the game?

It does happen in real life, but in another way. There are a lot of teams who let their key players rest in less important games. Or in games where they think they don't need them. Since there isn't something like fatigue (carried over the season)here, enthusiasm is the way to achieve about the same effect imo.

PS. Cavs lost, I guess they did a mutual TIE since James made 40+ points. Defense was terrible. ;)

Edit: Ohw I put in some smilies this time, otherwise it might go wrong again.

Of course there is. It's called Game Shape. If you overplay someone one week, his performances in the following week will suffer.

The issue at hand is mutual TIEs.

The official BB position is that it's not against the rules, so there's no issue to solve.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

and the issue was enthusiam as well as the TIE's ijust for the record.

They go hand in hand in this case.

Ther should not be any team playing TIE at this point in the season. Which makes something fishy with the sysytem and the system is enthusiam. You se how they are linked.

why not? play TIE the first 2 league games & in the cup you get the enthus to a high enough level to play TIE for most of the season, with or without TIE deals.

for a few reasons, The cup is extra money and why take a chance and getting thrown out earlyand losing that money. Secondly if you are trying to win your title or stay up in your league that can be the difference. And the last reason is because you lose the enthusiam pretty fast.

you have to understand that the communication between users shouldn't be banned and that's the point

If you start to deal like this - you even risk that the other guy can blow you and CT to win against you

save our freedom, please

And what if you let someone rest? Indeed, his Game Shape will drop as well. So you can't give players a few weeks off to come back stronger / fitter. That's what you do with enthusiasm I guess.

there is no way to solve this issue.
There is NO way to tell if a game with mutual TIE was arranged or coincidence. (if forbidden managers will use comunication away from BB to set it up, and there is no way to chack it)

Everyone is free to request his opponent will TIE...
I've never done it, and never will. If I want to play TIE, I play TIE, if I decide it is too important to risk the game, I will SURELY not let my opponent know what I am up to...

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.
