welcome to the "Outside Shooting for Team" federation!
my mistake, forgot to approve you earlier. you see, i've gotten more applications than i can count. & each application is studied extremely carefully before deciding. (if unsure, my policy is to let the application sit in limbo indefinitely). outside shooting for team is serious business!!!

He's right, it took a long time for my application for Outside Shooting for Team to get approved. The review process must be exceedingly thorough.

Ok, this is ridiculous. & Has nothing to do with the score or whoever will win. (i'm up 16 at the half & whether i end up losing or win by 50 doesn't change anything.) What's the deal with non-shooting fouls???

My PF scored 25 pts in 18 minutes (11 of 14) & fouled out before half-time... 3 non-shooting fouls -- including 2 in 8 seconds?? seriously? no-less against a marginal starter that has never attempted over 5 FTs in a game!?! Not that DMI means a ton, but my PF is +660,000 over the opposing PF... and where is the equality in non-shooting fouls? including other games now -- even players that rarely commit fouls on my team get them every game, while the opposition has virtually none more often than not?

Also isn't it stated somewhere that players in "foul trouble" back off & have lesser defensive ratings? So logically speaking, if anything they would be slightly less prone to committing a slew of fouls in a row?

For the record I won by 14 points.
Yet I would have been much happier had i lost, so long as the foul bs never occurred.

He is averaging 4.4 fouls a game...but yeah, tough to deal with.

up to 4.6 now in 31 min. per game now... -_-

Well on top of my PF, my starting center also fouled out... on 4 non-shooting fouls in 29 minutes!?! & he's not at all foul prone! Only averaged 2.7 fouls per game last season! (Even with the 6 fouls inflating it, is at 3.1 this season). But yeah, it's my biggest annoyance in BuzzerBeater. Not even kidding that I'd rather have lost.

This is what I don't get: even my foul-prone pf, last season only fouled out 1 of his last 34 games. & averaged 3.7 fouls in more min/game. If the aggressiveness attribute doesn't change, how does the below make sense?

PF's average fouls per season:
season 10: 1.6 fouls
season 11: 3.1 fouls
season 12: 2.4 fouls
season 13: 2.6 fouls
season 14: 2.2 fouls* (but far less avg. min played that season so throw out)
season 15: 3.7 fouls
season 16: 4.6 fouls (4 games fouled out & 2 with 5)

I mean it's understandable going up against a $100k monster. Or vs. a dominant scorer that gets to the FT line consistently week after week. But this... i don't even...

no idea what's going on....although I would get rid of the PF unless he has a history of injuring people.
