Putting more money might be bad, I agree, but if you want awards to be meaningful you have to reward people steadily playing their best players in the the league in positions where they excel. Take away money from somewhere else equally "random".

Just give $0 for the third game finals for example, that's random too, you know. Promotion money is also a random reward. Cup game money? Random. TV money? Random. All of those amounts have been decided by the devs, so if you're worried about extra money, just reduce the money coming from somewhere else.


I have no influence on the Allstar- MVP voting - nobody knows how it is calculated exactly, the engine used for this game is old and bugged as ****, so how can I try my best to win it? Thats what I meant with randomness, whereas my effort to win games, win the cup, promote etc. is rewarded directly - I can influence those results.

Ok I see the point, but to me it's fairly clear that those voted for the MVP are a combination of topping the stat ladders, average rating and minutes played. Usually the first 2 go together anyway, because the most efficient/best rated players are also the ones high up on the stat lists.

I think you could logically put forward a proposal to remove the MVP and ASG voting altogether for the very same reasons...

With the servers breaking down, this would probably a good move anyways.

Regular season MVP makes some sense, but who cares about 3p-contest winners.

Wow, you have an unusual definition of "random" in your country. Highly unusual.

Maybe he's suggesting that all of the cash awards are named after Arthur Dent's daughter. Which seems an odd choice; I would have thought "The Perfectly Normal Beast MVP award" would have had a much better ring to it, but I don't know what the current improbability fields are.

Yeah, I just took the adjective that Knecht used to point out that someone decided that all those numbers should be different than $ 0. Discretionary. Would you guys feel better if I said: "random number decided by someone" instead of just "random"?

I'd personally prefer "arbitrary" but I've been married long enough to know that my opinion matters only as much as I'm told it does.

Well as I am a foreigner and english is not my mother tongue, you have to bear with some fuzzy definitions. Still, I think it was pretty clear what I tried to communicate, so please refrain from twisting my words. God bless you!

As you could see, I couldn't get the appropriate word either. L:)
