maybe your opponent has a PR with special skills and that affected your attendance? :/ :? 8}



I personally have wondered if having an opponent with a national appeal don draper actually increases the home teams draw since the opponent would 'travel' better

ROUND TWO!!!
The game wasn't on TV so None of that "It is on TV" BS.
I am 7-1, second in the Big 8, The 2nd place 7-1 team from the Great 8 comes to my house for a game. And what do I get?
A 2500 attendance drop!!! This doesn't make sense. Is there a bug this year or is this game finally showing it's true colors of being an outdated piece of old tech. Are you telling me that the attendance algorithm can't see that this is a HUGE game and the fans would show up no matter what? Do you think that if the second best team in the Eastern Conference went to play the second best team in the Western Conference and both teams were winning at a 87.5% clip, do you think the fans would not fill that arena? CRAZY WEAK CRAP......and you wonder why this game isn't growing.

I had the same "bug" yesterday!
I am undefeted and still at the national cup and my stadium dropped from 16899 to 13638!!
I think that it has to do with the change for the boycott ...

I didn't change my prices. I was on a two game win streak going into a big game against another 1 loss team. Spin it however you want to....the attendance algorithm is old and outdated.

I figured this drop was attributed to losing to a rival (it's only a 12% temporary drop after all) so follow-up:

has there been a tweak to the penalty of losing games to attendance and the fan survey? Despite leading my division - I lost my last game and currently have a 0.5 rating in "the team play well in our last league game". I figured i'd lose some seats but it remained stable over games.

The result of the last game is the only thing that really counts. You can be 20-0, if you lose the 21st game by 1 point you can count on a huge drop in attendance for game 22. If it was a loss to a rival or a TV game you'll have an attendance as if you were 1-20, not 20-1. I mean, I'm exagerating but it's almost like this. Definitely something that should be tweaked.
