Its only live for scrimmages anyway, so more or less six games to figure out how the change impacts the game.

Nobody is using a league lineup in scrimmages anyway, so I would have thought that introducing the new GE to PLs would be the much cleverer move, but who am I to judge. I dont even pay for the game. YOLO.

PL would be the best option to test this, because we can play in PL with our best players.

This is where we hold them!

It would give a competitive advantage to managers paying for "supporter". That feature has always been about providing managers easier ways to access information—as opposed to exclusivity to that information—as well as aesthetic enhancements.

Its not like the PL boxscores are hidden... non-supporters can look at supporters boxscores and see the results as well!

No PL testing means that people wont be able to use their best players and if BB wants the best feedback from this GE change, they would get better/more results by at least including PL games.

And the argument for not having PL SB testing because it offers a competitive advantage is pretty weak. Why have PL games at all to test out different current tactics then?

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

It's true, PLs already give an advantage as far as experimenting things. But here, we're talking about giving twice as much opportunities to experiment with the new GE over a few weeks.

We can debate the potential benefits of PLs in normal circumstances, but that's very different. You can hardly compare having a 4th game each week to experiment with tactics, to having double the amout of heads-up time for a new GE.

And what good really is a boxscore if you don't have the players' skills?

I can understand if you need more time with the GE before it goes live, but everybody should be allowed in to the sneak preview.
