Earlier in the game 7 week injuries were possible. You get one and goodbye to your season plans
7 ? I recall 5, but not 7. Maybe.
I think the 7 comes from the real time waiting. 5 weeks was shown, but there was always a possible timespan which was longer than the 35 days. If I remember correct, 1 week can be up to 13 days? Like a sublevel of 1.9.
So 5 weeks could end up with 41 days? Which would still be shorter than 7 weeks.
