The point that BLU played my best players more........I'm here to tell you I have consistently seen just the opposite the past 3 seasons.... it kept mins down , so that point you have repeatedly stated.
Again without BLU my mins are way up....I know I have mentioned that point to you before.
You are speaking to something you possibly saw in print........I'm talking to you about extensive experience dealing with this personally.
But as you have stated you don't have time to digest my team stats for the past few seasons.

check any game of your own NT and you'll see that Barry is right. I can promise you the near totality of NT teams used to play blanks (because it was the most effective). Better minute distribution was a side effect (probably intended for some other feature, maybe LCD, which is also not working as intended and only working properly with blanks) and by better we mean lower minutes on the starters and higher on the backups.

Well, I'll have to take you guys' word about the NT's. I don't study them.

I still think removing exploits improves the game overall, though, and the NT manager having to set lineups seems like a miniscule price to pay. They're qualified to do that, eh?

Ok I'll bite.

Let's get to the core of how you feel and we can go from there. ... because it appears you have no desire to even look at you own team to verify.

From your own experience. ... what makes the change good for "you"?
Don't quote something from the manual.

And again people are telling you some positives with the BLU addressed and there were plenty. ..... you can't just say "I believe is for the better. .... the people responding to you don't buy it. .. not one bit and proof can be supplied or you can be pointed in the right direction. ... and you don't have time?

What makes this good for you?

Don't speak for anyone else. ...YOU?

That's fine and nobody's crying foul for removing blanks. There is a more general issue with substitution patterns.

I'm not interested in any argument.

That's all I'm saying. Oh, and I have never made use of BLU or any other exploit in this game as far as I know, and my substitutions seem to work out.

Understood

You have what you want.......why are we talking again? I mean really.... because like it was just stated....the substitutions and minute totals for players are the issue ....not the merits of the change.
I'm going to let my supporter run out.

What i find funny is that i knew you were going to respond when real money has been mentioned.

thats 3 times now you personally have done so......you have watched the banter back and forth but step in when cash is on the line only...... but people who work for a living and have seen the product turn inferior, the word supporter means something. Because of this I find you based on your timing insincere.

I have been playing this game since flippin 2008!

Did not become a supporter till only 4 months ago.

This is anger......Buzzerbeater's title says "GM Simulation " right?

But people want as much input on their teams as possible...i get that. Before the change was this for me and many others.....the coach could coach before and you could concentrait on building and elite team and actually see what the GE coach would do with it...... and I lived with it because that ambiguous coach was better than anything i could do......minute distribution....sub patterns as you and I and others have stated.

But since I played this game 6 years without chipping in a dime and now I have.......it is not a threat, it is dissapointment and anger.
Again I said in an earlier posts use the next 4 or 5 seasons...a year to get this right.
But to me you are just fighting fires.........that what moderators do...I used to me one myself so spare me.

Why did it take a threat to pull cash for you to speak? That's retorical

You guys win

I don't see almost all NT playing the blank line-up and to be honest I don't think it is a great accomplishment winning with a BLU. Being an NT is a great opportunity to play this game on a high level, so you can play this game on a high level tactically, possibly much better than with your own team. why wasting this with BLU ? I like that managers are responsible for picking the right players and the right tactics, and scouting your opponents. This is what this game is all about.

Hell Ya - We are coming from the North to conquer your arena ...

Oh oh. Do you imagine is is a good simulation for the coach to say, "Aw, I don't care, you guys just go out there and play whatever position you want, and come in and out whenever you feel like it. I'm going to go back in the locker room and read a magazine." That is your precious BLU.
