I wasn't planning on being top of the ladder this season, just hoping for another training year before having a shot at it next season. The winning right now is a bonus I guess. It seems that most people in our conference are building towards next year so we'll see how things go later on

I've got the #1 team from the Great 8 today, Villains.

Looking at the squads, they should kill me to death inside of three rounds.

If I can sneak another couple of wins out of the next 8 games, I'll be a very happy camper.

Villains are the top team but I think the two teams below (Lakes and AzzAZ) have the more intimidating rosters.

Hey guys, well I'll take a promotion if I get it but still making 50-75lk a week and training 3 players so I'm not to bothered if I spend another season or two here. Just needing a bigger arena and a few more million dollars and I'll feel alot more confident about a season in div II.

Ouch, tough loss

Final 1 2 3 4 Total
Baxter Bullants 24 26 21 21 92
Alabama Bees 20 25 21 43 109

They poured in 43 points in the last quarter. Is that a stamina issue from my end or just incredibly bad luck?

Could of been or did you have a key player foul out maybe? Don't forget to check game shape(I think the most important stat). Try to ensure your GS is respectable or better for all players, especially your starting 5. Best way to do this is to ensure your players between 50-70 mins every week roughly. Lots of theories on best minutes etc but there is a random element to the game when determining GS each week. A trainer with the fitness speciality can help as well. GS makes a huge difference. A 150k salary side with strong average GS will compete and sometimes defeat(pending on a few factors) a team with a salary of 200-250k if their GS average is respectable or lower. Sorry if thats confusing but let me know plus, the forums have great articles on GS as well.

a Couple of guys are way down on game shape.

Is that from playing too many minutes? I'll try to shape the rotations a little better.

Generally 50-70 mins per week is ideal but even then there is a chance of no improvement or even a decrease but rare. If you keep your guys around those minutes per week(50-70) then you will be fine for most of the season. Look it's hard to manage GS when your still in the cup and competing in the league. Can't have your best players playing 3 a week without consequences for the most part. GS can drop from playing to many or too little, injuries and the random factor....

No problems. My two guns are nearly stuffed from playing too many minutes, I've pulled them from the starting lineup for the next game.

Hopefully the cup ends for me this week.

I've always found that 60-75 mins per week is better. I had many games last season where players played between 70-75 mins and improved their gameshape. As previously said, there is a random element also so there's no guarantee that even if you play the perfect amount of minutes that it will improve gameshape but most times more than not will be good if it's between 55-75 per week.
