Now, usually, I try not to complain about BB and its changes...however...

REGARDING MY 2ND TEAM:

My gate receipts just dropped 30%

FACTS:

1. I did not get a win in the first 7 games (training rookies)
2. I have LESS THAN 300k in the bank! That's right...a measly 300k
3. Up until the eighth game I was averaging 10k fans...then in the 8th game...7k fans showed up!
4. My opponent in the 8th game was 2nd in other side with a 7-1 record

Now...

1. I understand by not winning any of my opening 7 games warrants a penalty; and
2. I understand that my promotion bonus (and fan bonus) may be factors here

BUT...I have no funds (a little over 200k)

I don't quite feel a drop of 30% attendance is fair given this season's changes.

I would love a second opinion please?

Or is this a bug?

Thanks in advance

Few things to take into account that may or may not affect your attendance:
- You promoted this season. It's probable that the fan enthusiasm is starting to wear off from the promotion.
- You recently lost against your rival, during a match TV.

However, it's true that you had another home game after that loss and the attendance bump was lower than this last game.

I guess your case will serve as a test experiment to see if the fan boycott is working as intended or if you have been affected too much.

Last question. Did you change your prices at the last update, between your two home games ? That could possibly explain things.


All good points. And yes, I did change my arena prices. I had forgotten that and, as you no doubt suspect, is a significant factor when combined with the others. Mmm...probably not a bug. I guess over the coming weeks I will better confirm this.

Thanks for the prompt reply BB-Perpete.

In last game i was 57% down in gate receipts, comparing to both previous game and average gate receipts.

I've been tanking, am in the top funds category(over 10mil) and thought that the reduction would be up to 50%.

Τhe new rule takes into consideration losing exactly that much and states that the reduction will be up to 50%.

Of course but never 7% on top of 50%...

And now that we do have such a rule it states reduction up to 50%.
Not 50% exactly, up to 50%. Meaning it allows room for attendance/receipts fluctuations(because of opponent's ranking ie) withing the specified limit.
