nobody bothered about actually stating whether promotion money will be handed out to the second best team

All promoting teams will have their bonus as it has happened all the time with teams promoting instead of bots and in Utopia.

I've been asking that all season. And have done so since the updated news post. Why ignore my question (asked multiple times) and answer it now? And why wasn't it in the midseason post?

Disgraceful.

Isn't it about time for a new game engine? And YES, people want the cups to be seeded. Do you think users want to see teams in the final 4 who got lucky and drew bots to get there? NO. People want to see a Final that is two of the best teams in the country. Look at Japan. One semi final was the two best teams in the country and the other was two so so teams. And what did we have in the final, a 30 pt blow out. if you don't think that is a problem, there is no hope for you.

Please speak for yourself. Until you do not make any survey, you have no right to asses what is my opinion or others on specific subject.

It's in the rules and there is no change in this subject. I suppose this is the reason to not mention it in the midseason post.

This entire post; this entire thread in fact; is a shining example of the lack of clarity here. I'd tell you exactly what I think of you and your post, but unfortunately I'd be banned.

The fact that the BBs dialed back the promotion to a half measure of what they originally wanted, as they did with the boycott; instead of just doing away with the stupid ideas in the first place, when they were told they were either pointless or potentially disastrous, shows that one, the ideas were bad in the first place, and two, the BBs are too obstinate to listen to any of us.

While I did predict in another thread that this is exactly what they would do, I'm still disappointed.

Its in the rules and there is no change in this subject. Not only was the announcement of a change to promotion, it was described as being a hybrid BB/Utopia promotion. Hybrid means a mix, and so its not clear if the rules would be exactly the same or not. I asked as long ago as the 11th December whether bonuses would be given to the extra teams. At no point since then has this been answered.

In another thread GM-Athrun Zala told off some users for making assumptions about the promotion changes. That assumption was that promotion bonuses would be given.

Then comes the midseason announcement and there's still no mention of whether promotion bonuses would be given. Now you're telling me I should have assumed this meant that the rules on this subject weren't changing.

Its not really my fault you and your cohorts have no idea how to communicate.

Here you have the reason because your questions are ignored.

And here you have the reason why the game is failing.

Your elitist behavior, ignoring questions on purpose and arrogant stance on criticized changes damages the relationship between owners and customers.

How do we fix a hyperinflated economy?

Hand out even more money. Great success!

I guess I missed that in my economics classes.
