They tried that in France, I proved to them it's a myth.

Apart from losing games, how else can you prove that the GM button is a myth?

Well my Team is quite a bit more succesfull in comparison to back when I was a GM ... And at least I never found a Button back then

Some people believe that past GMs retain the GM button for perpetuity whilst others believe that that past GMs have residual GM button powers.

6 wins out of 6 in the round robin games and currently placed 8th overall, these stats only enhance these theories

6 rounds of the 8 round robin rounds are now complete and only 19 teams remain undefeated and only a further 19 teams have 5 wins and one loss.

This means that 13 of the 19 teams with 5 wins and 1 loss, currently sit in the 32 and only 6 teams with 5 wins and 1 loss sit outside the top 32.

With 2 rounds left its likely that at least 3 or 4 of the 19 teams with 5 wins and 1 loss with lose a 2nd game, which I extrapolate to hypothesis that this season very few teams with a 7 win 1 loss record, if any, will miss out on making the knock out round of 32 and its even possible that a team with 6 wins and 2 losses could also make it.

Whilst it is unlikely it is still hypothetically possible that 1 or more of the 19 teams who are undefeated, could lose their last 2 round robin games thus saving a team with a 7 win 1 loss record.

Thoughts everyone as to what the cut off record for 32nd spot will be?

Luck of the draw is obviously huge in the round robin stages of B3

Currently with a 5 win 1 loss record and thus on the edge of missing the final 32 we have;

Past winners Młoty Stargard (PD +114) & I Love Tehran (PD +100) both have a 5 win 1 loss record and currently sit 32nd and 33rd.

Regular contributors to this thread 猛牛 managed by "loved by the buffalo" (PD + 248), Pszczyna Team (PD + 163) and Ball Busters (PD +133) are also on 5 wins and 1 loss

Unless my opponents make couple transfers, I am fairly confident I should avance thanks to 7-1 record and good PD.

Not going for it all though. Just not enough money and it takes tons of luck after introduction of GDP anyway

Well don't forget to point out that I'm undefeated this season counting cup and league games .. and won both league and cup in the last two season, how would this be possible without GM powers?

My draw this season was rather easy, of course it also helps that i can tank enthusiasm in nearly all games without having to worry that my team will lose

I bet that's a bug. You kept your GM button!

No, I'm saving my money, I will most likely start to rebuild next season since my players are quite old, I don't think I could affort a player which would make much difference right now

How expensive does a roster have to be to win B3?
