what i fidn always a bit buggy is the conrtrbution of the tv matches. one of those schedules gives you two away tv matches, and the home tv match on the last game day(so it impact only 1 off season game if any), and another makes it the other way round.

not really a bug, but i believe not really intended or close to fair too?(i mean the 2:1 contribution is already unfair, but 2:0)

two teams with such schedules:
(26303) - 2 away, + home at last game day
(34266) - 2 home + away last gameday

I agree, it's not fair, been there myself a lot of times. But, it is random and luck is a big part of the game. Not defending the system, I just think it emulates real life quite well.

but normally random works with more event, and i think it would be still a lot of random involved since the contribution is already 2:1.

Another thing about it which might be a bug, in the past i noticed often that visitor income is worse as long the tv and rival entry are empty, could it be that they start with "zero" instead of behaving neutral?

I don't think I quite understand what you meant about the random event thing, sorry.

About the TV and rival entries, you make a valid point and it's worth investigating.

i think it is a different topic, more a suggestion then a bug ;) I basically meant random get fair, if you have many trys. So rolling the dice once, is pretty random. Rolling it 10.000 times and you can forecast the result quite good.

It's an interesting solution. I'll talk it over with my colleagues.

Yeah, so that complicates things further. That's why I don't think we should change the current format.

I checked, they don't start with zero, so it's functioning properly.
