I have to admit that I am really quite pissed off after my home game tonight. I went 16-6 last season and went to the Great 8 final. So why did 5000 fans stay away? What really sucks is that the game doesn't take into account that it was opening night of league play...There should be a boost for that...like in real sports...Did anybody else have a empty arena for opening night?

Yes, I sold about 2500 bleacher tickets less than I expected. But my last season was the worst in ages (fans say it was a 3-ball season), so my situation may be a bit different.

My fan survey is nice...and I was playing another playoff team from last season....I think the main thing is that it was opening night of the season...they gotta add a boost for attendance for that game...

Yeah...Mine is not about the price but the code for the attendance. look at this game just 2 weeks ago..
I played another Div.1 team in my private league..(36144504) ...20133 fans showed up...The only difference is the fact that last nights game came after the economic update...like the name of the thread...sad day for the home team..

There was no price of tickets for the private league game
all those fans showed up because it was free

Fans in buuzerbeater don't like losing
your playoff game to end last season was a first rounder
and you lost by 17

I once played in final
won easily game 1 at home
lost on purpose on road in game 2 for 2nd home game
thousands stayed away as we won championship and promoted

only time fans don't mind losing is after you promote

That is not true...I hope you don't really believe that. My last PL game was against a 3 div. team and only 10,000 fans showed up. Also, I won the first round playoff game and made it to the final of my conference. I also lost to the 39th ranked team in the world. Here is my point. They should have better code written for the attendance aspects of the game... A team that hasn't missed the playoffs since season 9, there is no way a season home opener wouldn't be almost sold out....Crazy

I believe its because rivalry and tv games arent included in fan attendance yet. So if you performed well in those two late last season, you are not seeing the bump in attendance you saw last season because of it.
