It's definetely a bug. I just played with a team(2.329 WR) which just demoted from 2nd division, after I won one of the first two games and the cup game, instead of gaining money I got 15k less than the first game, that was against a team(11.145 WR)that promoted from 4th division! Correct me if I am wrong but world rank(position in the league) does matter...

since playing the game in this state is currentlyi impossible, i'll just tank this season


I relegated on purpose last season because of this attendance issue, but it didn't help, attendance is terrible down here too. The worst part of this problem is that it only affects some teams, so you have some manager who are going to loose maybe up to $1 million in ticket revenues, while other managers will be unaffected. It's very unfair.

I am working on this issue, but there are no quick solutions. To understand correctly if and where the problem lies, I need to have some data over time.


Wait. You have all the data. What am I missing?

Did you forget to recalculate the numbers or are you stalling? Like maybe we will forget that the attendance algorithm is messed up. If you are stalling, maybe you should delete the message on the front page of BB that says you are working on it.

I didn't forget. I can easily recalculate but since I still haven't figured out the cause, I don't see how it will help. I might do it just for the sake of removing the message though.

Well couldn't you recalculate attendance just to compare it to the actual data? If for some teams there's a major difference between recalculated and original attendance revenue, for example more than $50k per game, then it shows there was probably a bug somewhere and even if you can't figure out the cause, at least you'll be able to reimburse the teams with lost revenue.

Here we go again. Every week the attendance bug gets worse and worse. Pretty soon it will be soooo big you won't be able to fix it. A new attendance algorithm is needed badly. It is really past the bug part. A third of this season is gone and you are still talking about fixing a bug from late last season.

Can't do it. It's relying on many factors which have changed a lot since then and can't be properly recalculated for that point in time. Sadly, it looks like I'll just have to do a very basic recalculation that just gives everyone 10% more attendance (for example).
