Maybe I like smoked gouda a little too much...


I have a great smoked gouda story to tell, but maybe not 100% appropriate for the forums.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

Charles,

The GE is set to make teams enter garbage time when they are up or down by 20 points. Isn't it possible to allow users to also set manually ( like entusiasm ) when they want that to happen?

Something like:
Spare starters when:
1. Up by:
a. never
b. 30 points
c. 20 points
d. 15 points

2. Down by:
a. never
b. 30 points
c. 20 points
d. 15 points.


Of course, choosing between any of those wouldn't interfer in subs pattern - that's managle in depht chart. but only regarding garbage time.

This would also avoid all that stuff about teams that are in need of point differencial in fights for seeds at playoffs or relegation matches.

It should be just up or down 20 points.
1.Use walkover rule.
2.Deny walkover rule.

Perhaps rise the chance of injury in regular season games if starters are left in but do not apply if for playoff games or cup games.

Sounds fair to me! But how would this work out for NT's?

Why not? Not many people would chose to let their starters remain on court in a cup or PO game when you are already 30 points up (especially if there is an increased chance of injuries), but their might be some who would because of training purposes...

Frankly, of all the possible solutions proposed regarding garbage time, this would be by far the worst. Basically, if I am up by 20ish nearing the end of the third quarter, I will have to start rooting against my team in order to avoid what is a no-win situation.

Would it not be easier to just apply garbage time to both teams? While it is realistic that the team leading by 30 points would not want to risk an injury in a meaningless quarter, is it not equally realistic that the team that is down 30 would do the same?
