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

thanks for all Marin
Even if you could have given us another bonus for waiting ^^

Really thanks

I played the first game in my home. Last season i won the final of IV.24 and i qualified for III.11 . I expected my fans to be excited, but the attendance in the first game was poor (cause of the bug). In the second home game, the attendance was exactly as i expected to be.

i saw the announcement, but no positive fine was given to my team. Should i wait for it ?

Thank you.

I received nothing, nothing, NOTHING !

In my second home game, my attendance increased of about 2000 fans from the first one. I think there has been a big mistake and I'm very disappointed. What can I do ? Who can I blame ?

You played your second game after three straight wins (league and cup).

@WFUnDina: Maybe the recalculation was not perfect in your case, but the numbers of other games may have been boosted by the arena expansions that you've done in the meantime. I took the expansions into consideration in the recalculation code.

And the season before, I've been to the Finals and almost promote. My arena was full all playoff long, even before the PO. I decided to put my bleachers at 11 instead of 10 and just because of that, a drop for about 2000 fans ??? And an increase of 2000 just because of three wins in a row whereas at the same time you can lose a lot of fans with a loss against a stronger team ?

Where's the logic ? That's unfair. Everybody got something, everybody has seen a bug in that first home game but in my case everything was fine ? I really doubt that.

I haven't added that many seats. My point is they refund seems to be calculated by current prices, not the prices when the game took place.

Edit - This is what I've spent on upgrades. Almost everything has been on everything except Bleachers.

8/21/2012 Expansion of The Clinic $ 150 000
8/28/2012 Expansion of The Clinic $ 35 000
9/12/2012 Expansion of The Clinic $ 80 000
9/22/2012 Expansion of The Clinic $ 115 000

Just look at the attendance figures. My attendance in everything save for Bleachers doesn't not fluctuate that much.
You can see from my sell out of the Game 1 of the Finals, what size was my arena.

Marin, you'd be upset too, if you got shafted out of 15-20% of your Revenue, after refund. The Average of my 3 gate recepts was 206653. 173211, after refund, still doesn't even look remotely right.

Edit

Those numbers are pretty consistant. I personally like how I could have possibly added only 700 bleachers since, but those Bleacher numbers are all over the place.

RE-EDIT

Just to show. Take Away the 700 Bleachers, That I have built since Game 1 of the Finals last season, from Game 2 on 9/1/2012 against SHM, That leaves 9218 - 700= 8518. Now subtract that from Game 1's attendence 4947, you get 8518-4947 = 3571. My Price was 15$, so 3571 x 15$ = 53565. Which if you add that to the Game 1 revenue, you get 201250$. Still not right, but closer then 173211$.

I also didn't get a bonus/ correction. I think I should have based upon good performance last year and no price change but only 77% attendance (against my rival!!!) compared to full attendance late last season.

I expected to get a bonus because the attendance was not enough..I won the champion in iv with 22 wins and 44 in two seasons!!! Is there any way to change something?? Thanks a lot..
