Hello,

I think there might be a bug with the schedule in merging leagues. Let me explain why :

Since the merging of the African leagues, 3 seasons ago, we are two teams competing for the victory : E-5 and me. I am in the first conference, he is in the other one. First, i noticed that since the beginning of "Nations of Africa", i have always played the game against E-5 during regular season away. Three times in three seasons, it started to bother me. I thought it was bad luck. According to another manager the probability was 12,5%. A lot of bad luck...

Then i noticed that my game against E-5 is always my 8th game of the season. According to the same manager, the probability to play E-5 away on the 8th game three seasons in a row is now 0,4%. Bad luck ? I don't think so

It may seem a little thing but it spoils the gaming experience. Our teams have a similar level, but the HCA he has during regular season gives him HCA for the finals and at the end the win... every season. I don't want to be a grouch, but to lose three seasons in a row in the finals because you play THE most important game of the season away is a problem. If it happens in every merging league, it is a serious problem.

Regards,

Nuff

As I said in my message to you, I checked the code and it seemed to randomize the team ordering (the randomisation code was there however, it seems like the randomisation code doesn't do a thing. This is a big problem and sadly, I'm afraid, looks like all leagues were affected since forever. I don't know who coded it, but it was obviously never tested, and new teams in a league would somewhat shuffle the ordering so it was hard to detect from the users perspective - until you did it now. I fixed the randomisation part and from now on, the ordering of teams for their schedule will truly be chance. Thank you for not giving up easily, this was one hell of a bug.

Thank you for fixing problems

Hello,

Are you sure this bug has been fixed. Two seasons later, i still play THE game away.

Thx,

I'm curious about the Marin's answer. It must be frustrating.

Yes, the random ordering of teams works (I checked again), but this is just unlucky.
