Recently I have been accused to have rigged an election. People don't realise how much GMs play the exact same game as everyone, but are enforcing the rules.


Whoa, discussing a cheating accusation on the forums? That's against the rules! Won't some GM punish you for abusing your authority?

;)

The whole thing is just a testament of the wonderful power of the human brain to believe whatever it wants to when someone doesn't want to blame himself.

You can't base it of 1 rare case, and we should be able to set the minutes (plus or less) that we want for our players, it doesn't make much sense that we can't

I didn't base it off 1 rare case I used the term always. My old squad always had atleast 1 guy that played 20+ minutes. (this guy was nearly as good as my starters.)
That being said I agree with you, the BBs should add more substitution options to specify the managers preference in roatation between starters and subs.

I have 2 suggestions for that..

MINOR suggestion:
1. Decrease the effect of stamina or..
2. Increase a little bit the percentage of the coach in making a substitution due to poor play and minutes played.

MAJOR suggestion:
1. Give us the option of deciding the maximum playing time to be given to our starters.
Not very specific like giving the exact minutes but give us 3 options like:
A. Tire Out - He will play until he is very exhausted to even walk. (40 - 48 minutes)
B. Balance - The PT will be balance so that he can play efficiently (34 - 42 minutes)
C. Conserve/Restricted - His PT will be restricted and will only play as long as he is doing the right thing (28 - 36 minutes)
D. Starter Scheme - His PT will be lower than his substitute in the Line-up - (16 - 24 minutes)
