Finally, I've worked it out in a satisfactory manner. Thousands of teams received a positive GM-fine to repay the missing revenue, most of them promotees, which were affected the most. I really do hope this never happens again and I want to thank everyone for giving me the time to fix this appropriately. I've learned a lesson here and will know better next offseason... Hopefully

I do not understand why I received 34 867$ when the difference between the first match and the second is 67 706$ (151 262$ - 218 968$) so does it means that the first match's attendance was suppose to be around 185 000$ with the attendance's boost on its prime ?

I received $ 57 741.

For me to make as much as $ 378 213 (320 472 + 57 741) in my first home game, assuming my luxury boxes, courtside seats and lower tier sold out, I would have had to sell 16 496 bleachers, bringing the total seats sold to 25 546.
Now, even if the soft cap was extra-soft in your calculations, I don't even have that many seats to sell!

Not that I'm complaining, but I'm curious as to what actually happened ;)

PS: my prices at the time were $ 405 / 80 / 18 / 10.

It seems if you lowered your prices you got the shaft again and if you raised your prices since the start of the season you got a new bonus. I'm at work on my phone and I can tell you I got 25k which isn't even half the difference between game 1 and game 2.

Hi, my attendance has dropped by 3.5k since the start of the year, mostly bleachers seats including an extra thousand this week despite dropping prices?

The first game of the season is never very high on attendance. The fans need to see a game or two first to get a feel for the season.

Okay so with GM fine adjustment this is how my revenue would look.

1st game Pre - $ 147 685
2nd game- $ 221 281
3rd game - $ 205 167
4th game - $ 193 512
5th game - $ 185 550

The 5th game I reduced my Bleachers from 15$ to 10$, and drastically reduced the other seats, no idea on the specifics.

GM fine +$ 25 526

That would made the first game a total of $173211. That is 11K less then my last game with a drastically reduced seating cost and being a sell out.

Since most of seating difference in attendance over the first 4 games was in Bleachers.

9/15/2012 Wildens --------7527 - 1043 - 168 - 6 - 8744
9/11/2012 Lumber Jacks - 8229 - 1068 - 168 - 6 - 9471
9/1/2012 shm ------------ 9218 - 1093 - 169 - 6 - 10486
8/25/2012 Trailblazers ---- 4947 - 912 - 160 - 6 - 6025

With the priced I had set for the first 3rd of the games, there is no way you can tell me, I should only be refunded 25.5k
