Yup, there's a difference, but players that DNP are also rewarded. A guy had +22k merch after a DNP, and +31k after a game played as sub.

I also agree that players shouldn't play 40+ minutes, but your arguments with merchandising are not convincing, imo.

A quick question: are you saying there is a way to determine how much of the weekly merchandise sales are attributable to each player? Thanks.

You can estimate the amount by calculating the merchandising difference between a week without NT game and one with a NT game.

Merchandising from NT games is a % of the salary.

Ah, okay, NT matters ... to managers at that level. Is there a way to distinguish between $5000 / $10,000 in no-game / game weeks versus, say, $20,000 / $25,000? Either way the difference is $5k. Just curious for the day I am at the upper levels and hob-nob with NT's. Thanks.

The sub pattern with blank/LCD was already in the game. Surely they can implement something similar without the blank.

+1


+1

I wanted to reiterate the point that the BLULTCD for me for a few seasons substituted smartly with players on my team with proficient stamina! (I mean 33 to 38 mins a game! ) This engine had always penalized you got having your players in the best shape possible which takes away from so much realism!

With the sub patterns along with max stamina won me games alone.

BB players IRL are in peak shape and should not be penalized for it.

The BLU addressed this issue just nicely.

High stamina less injuries. ....... mediocre stamina more and longer injuries. IRL if a player constantly plays play past his peak of energy. .. is he more susceptible to injury?
Adjustments need to be made.

From everything I have read, that is a myth about BB.

You can't slice the post you must let the whole post sink in to get the understanding.

But to address what you said about being a myth. ..I was reflecting on RL... yes it is a game but the substitutions with my team with strong to prominent stamina was in the mid 30s for most of the season last.
BLULTCD provided this.

Can we agree that the chance of injury is significantly higher with more mins logged? Again BLU countered this.

Of course. Injuries are randomly generated, so they correspond 1:1 with minutes. BLU cannot change that.


Again BLU countered this.

BLU, if anything, put your best players on for more minutes than you might have chosen, an adverse effect.

I need you to study my games last season. ....ALL games were BLU... then perhaps you will see what I'm saying. ... look at the min distribution.
