yeah, it hurts to get beaten up by your own player. ;þ

about TV games, well I think I can complaint as well : 2X against Phoenix Suns and 1X at Vottem. This seriously reduces my income. Look at income against Boes : 430k ! You call this fair ? Seems older teams in BBBL are protected. Wonder how TV games are decided ?

well, indeed TV games and rivals games seem totaly random to me.
sure they have fixed formulas for rivals, but then they just have a season calculator for the games, and it just depends on that when or where you will play them.

as for TV games, they also seem to have some formula, but there is a lot of randomness too, especially in which teams you will be playing.

On one side TV and rivals make the game more interesting. It demands higher tactical interaction, on the other side, the downside, this often indeed favours smoe teams, and makes it more troublesome for others.
But as this game is not meant to be played for 1 season, but works in the long run, statistically, it should all level out.

This game can be compared with poker in that area. There's a lot of choices to make, you can play safe, or you can gamble, you will get a good hand, you will get bad hands, good hands will often win, but somethimes loose, etc.

So just try to focus on the lucky things, and not on the bad draws.

i'm gone for 4 day's, and my mailbox is stacked with mails again... gives you a warm feeling that you can't be missed for even 4 day's :P (joking here)

anyhow, i'm back, jetlagged like hell, and going to look to our Nt opponent now, to see if i have to tweak some things or not ( on the line up that i made Wednesday before i left to NY ;)

god, it's quite here.

we've had 4 games so far, and no discussion since game 2...

btw, Mizu is doing well in B3. Joe has a though way to go, with an away game against Los Dragones... but then again, Joe has an amazing team :D He might jsut be able to kick the butt of the number one team from BB in his own arena ( we can and should hope for it that it happenes. it would be a great feat!)

yep you're right, it's been a bit quiet here for a while...

i have to say i had a very friendly B3 draw, but it's still unclear whether i can have some "ambitions" (meaning going to the 2nd round). nevermind, it's a successful experience so far

i play at joe's this saturday, so there's a big chance i'll be 3 games behind tonight, considering joe always has the best point average... tough to swallow after just 5 games! but this is the reality of having to deal with the cowboys every single season)

you mean, 2 games behind Joe :P either that or their is a serious bug in the BB division ranking calculation :P

still don't see how Coach Q sees a 4-2 record vs a 6-0 record as being 3 games behind Joe, with or without the point average...

6-4 remains 2 to me, and not 3 (unless someone has redefined math, in which case, i wouldn't mind a redefenition of my economy in the positive way ^^)
