I can understand it is annoying, ... , but I do like to be able to manage my enthousiasm as I like it.


sign, for me playing tie is an important tactical instrument. And when you say, that he loose games in playing tie and not giving your best, then i say you loose more games if you don't play Tie from time to time, and are not giving your best and your fans should run away.

When you always want that the team give their best, you have to change the gameshape system and delete motivation out of this game - but i pretty sure the game is less fun after it.


Don't forget, teams that arange mutual TIEs will not gain advantage in the end, since they give up on the strenght of it and 'share' it with their opponents. In the end their enthousiasm will not be higher then any of the others they arranged it with, so what's the advantage?


This is nobel prize winning post ;) Sorry with an tie agreement you profitate without having an disadvantage of it, your only disadvantage was that your opponent don't have to TIE ... Ok when you think at the best of three series in the PO you might be right^^

Please, TIE Agreements are an abomination.

Honestly, I don't know how often they occur, but to me, its not much different than getting a friend to overbid on a player or play his 2nd team against you or something like that.

let me clearly restate that I will never have such an 'arangement' myself.

Let me also state that I am not in favor.

but that is about anything I can say about it. It is not, and will not be forbidden.

overbidding is clearly against the rules, so I honestly cannot see why you would make a comparison like this.

On the other hand, we are again starting a discussion about something that was already discussed, and for which there is an other threat.

The other thing that was stated, that teams should not trow a game they can not win anyway is something new.
I myself trew my last B3 game last season to gain enthousiasm from the TIE I played at it. Anyone sane and smart enough to just know they stand no chance, and use the unluckyness of the situation to at least get something out of it, should be punished? I didn't think so!

therefor, a NO-NO on this suggestion if I could decide.

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

The TIE Agreement issue is an important one, up there with malaria in Africa and the Global Warming.

he should learn from it, and it was easier for me to ask again ...

Instead of copying the link, pasting him in a txt , looking for thread id and put it in again here.

Like adomole, I'm a team whose opponents often TIE and/or play their second teams. I generally TIE against those teams as well, since I know I'm probably going to win even if they try their hardest.
​
If your change was implemented, I'd still win and I'd still TIE. No difference. But the weaker teams would either have their income or their enthusiasm punished.
​
So, this would build in an advantage for the stronger teams. I don't think that's a good idea.


What he said.

On second teams -since trainng needs minutes and game shape is more or less influenced by minutes played I don't see why anyone shouldn't play any players he/she wants.
