Since the beginning of this season.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

It is important to notice that the match effect of normal and CT are the same as normal during playoffs. However, when it comes to enthusiasm a playoff CT works as a "Normal" (i.e. you do not loose enthusiasm using CT in the playoffs) and a playoff normal works as a "TIE" (i.e. playoff normal builds enthusiasm).

That's a pretty important statement. Can anyone confirm this?

Yes, the game rules.

Just checked the rules again. One important element hasn't been mentioned: Although the effects on the enthusiasm are as described above, the effect on the effort during the games stays the same.

Here the rules:

For particularly important games, including league playoff games, relegation games, and the final two rounds of the national tournament, your players will be too excited to "take it easy". In these games, the only options available are Playoff Normal, in which your team receives the enthusiasm effects of a regular Take It Easy but the effort level of a regular Normal, and Playoff Crunch Time, in which your team receives the enthusiasm effects of a regular Normal but the effort level of a regular Crunch Time.

That's correct. There will be more than one frustrated manager after the first playoff round...

I don't see what the problem is. If someone expected TIE and CT to be completely removed from the playoffs -- this is not going to happen.

That's not at all what worries me.

What worries me is that a few (perhaps a lot) users will be confused and will not understand or miss the difference between playoff CT and CT. This people will typically be those that are least engaged in the game today, i.e. there interest for the game is extra vulnarable for "hits".

You can't really hurt yourself with PO CT and PO Normal.

Well as you compete against another team you can if you take a malinformed decision, but this has already been discussed here: (38954.1)
