When you are considering playing Crunch Time, don't.

Play Normal instead.

A lesson for the higher divisions.

i beg to differ.

if you have a must win game and a very easy schedule after it to TIE, then i think it is very acceptable. in fact i have done it a fair few times.

totally agree.

got me to the round of 32 last season by beating teams in higher divisions by CTing them

interesting. in the cup i would be more wary of using it, unless all i wanted from the season was a cup run, in that case i could sacrifice the league matches for a little extra in the cup.

In division III, it sure works. Some of you have ridiculously easy Div III's (not this one..)

Do it in division II or ABBL, and it's a death note for the next 2 weeks.

If you TIE all season, with the odd sprinkle of normal here and there, you'll maintain enthusiasm of around 10 all season.

To go from 5 through to 10 again without a cup game can take a while...

And honestly, ABBL teams will always win the cup. Unless they really mess up (which they really shouldn't...)

For me it depends on what your goals are for the season. Say i was in Div.2 and was aiming to avoid automatic relegation because i think i can beat the teams that will finish 6 & 7 in the other conference, it would be worth using once or twice.

if i was playing the team that i might finish above of in my conference, and had a very hard schedule afterwards consisting of the top 4 teams. then the CT to get that important win against that other battling team is very viable imo. because no matter your enthusiasm you wont win those next 3 or 4 games so you can TIE them and regain your enthusiasm for other games you might win.

but hey that is me. some people wouldn't go out on a limb like that.

If you're trying to avoid relegation it can be handy, but I'd like to think most of you have a plan to survive in II without having to yo-yo between divisions.

Well, I'd at least expect you to bainsy. ;)
