If you forfeit a match I assume none of your players gets any minutes, right? But if your opponent forfeits do your players get minutes under their belt? And how are those minutes determined?

Minutes are fixed, 36 for a starter, 10 for a backup, 2 for a reserve. A player will not get the full starter + backup minutes if set at both positions.

But you can get 38 minutes if you set one player as starter and reserve.

How is a match forfeited then? Not starting anyone? Not suiting anyone up?
And, why in the world would anyone ever do such a thing?

This is correct.

You're saying there is no possible way for a player to get 48 minutes in a blowout?

This is correct.

A match is forfeited if you dress fewer than 3 players for the game. People do this if they either forget to set a lineup or only want to get minutes for 1 or 2 players and forget you need three to avoid the walkover.

Blowout = Result with at least 20 points difference, is that right?

Well, if you take only 5 players to the match, they'll probably play 48 minutes each (unless they're fouled out or injured, of course)

We have both said a lot of things that you are going to regret.

Think they mean blowout = forfeit in this example u can get 48 minutes if there is a 20+ margin if u have tactics right and with a bit of luck.
