The Spanish Monsters team that beat you is one of several teams I've noticed that seem to tank for 4 or so seasons, build up a 10,000+ arena, and then buy players. They become a beast starting in a low division with a large arena and loads of reserve money.

But who exactly wants to tank for 4 seasons in this game - boring! Unless, they are someone's second or third team - and that someone probably already has a good team in DIII, DII or DI.

As someone who tanked for 3(?) seasons, it is incredibly boring. But he might have been someone like me, who just got bored with the game, and wanted to take a break.

Perhaps. But he never left DV.

I actually considered doing this last week, I did an estimate and figured I could sell my team (not counting three decent players) and tank for five weeks and end up with about 3mill, of course that is a very rough estimate but the deal breaker for me is that with 10 extra losses plus the one I have and another one or two while I buy back a team I would not have made the playoffs...

No wonder I saw that 108 point loss. CRAZY! (CRAZY when I mean, how'd you lose by that much) I scrimmaged Chekreyes once and I did better than you! 104-49 the final. Man, you're doing SERIOUS tanking.

Well it helped that I'm in a foreign country and forgot to set my lineup until 11 minutes before the game resulting in a normal with my A lineup. Against you I used the same effort on the road with less players. I feel like had I managed differently I could still be undefeated and possibly still in the cup...
