Well, I'm done.

And I think my team set a club record for fouls (36).

Edit: Nope, had 40 fouls in my loss to Flood this season.

However, it does shatter my record for fouls in a cup game (29 vs. San Jose Sharks, Season 5).

Me too. I considered putting up a fight against my NBBA opponent, but then figured it would ruin my training cycle, game shape, and enthusiasm, and really, now that cup games only give you $25k per game, is it really worth it?

I was having the same problem (mostly with game shape).

And it actually goes up to $30,000 this coming round. Not that you couldn't have made more than that playing a bot away last season, but I digress.

The rest of the payout:
# Final Game: $ 250 000
# Semi-Final: $ 100 000
# Quarter-Final: $ 75 000
# 16-team round: $ 50 000
# 32-team round: $ 45 000
# 64-team round: $ 40 000
# 128-team round: $ 35 000
# 256-team round: $ 30 000<--next round
# 512-team round: $ 25 000

agreed. probably the only bonus for being in it is to maybe gain some enthusiasm on a TIE.
i just think it's funny that my NBBA cup opponent from last week now plays a div V bot. ha! the randomness has to go.

I dislike the randomness, but it does add another tactical dimension to the game.

I'm more upset about the money for the cup games. This season I made less than 200k for four cup games, whereas I made more than that last season splitting the income from 2 home games.
