Yeah, this is a douche bag move as you risk messing up the training of your opponent. I don't understand why you would do it at all.

I don't think he has to feel too sorry about the training minutes of a bot?

More money = better? That should really be all the justification he needs. Who cares what happens to your opponent? Does your team do better if his training minutes are better?


Hey - I'll be looking for a scrimmage next week - I would love to throw a walk-over and screw you over. It is not like I care about what happens to your team.

So, point taken, he is up against a bot. My point is there are other ways to lose a game than throwing a walk-over, even against a bot team.

Yeah u could always TIE. play players out of position, use your scrubs or use tactics totally unsuited to your team. Just play a Centre at PG/SG and have the team run and gun lol.

Of course there are other ways, but against a bot you may still win with your worst guys on the worst positions...

But it may really be better to try and lose the game without a walkover. I guess you don't receive ticket revenue for a walkover, do you?
So losing the game in a "normal" way would give you 1/3 of the 2nd game's revenue AND 2/3 of the money for the 3rd match.
With a walkover you may only get cash for the third match.

Can it really work that way? Then you could deny a dominant team their game income, forcing them to sell players...

What do you mean? You make a walkover with the intention to deny the other guy the ticket income?

1) That would be really unfair and this is a game where you should treat others with respect...
2) you wuold cheat yourself. The other guy won't receive income but you won't do either
3) If the other would have to sell players just because of 1 or 2 matches without revenue, then he'd be a really bad manager imho...
4) What would be the benefit in it for you if you deny him the income? If it's in the playoff finals and you lose anyway, he's going to leave your league anyway, so you don't benefit if he has less money afterwards.

If you didn't mean that, sorry for this post ;-)

Yes i know it will never happen and it would be quite sad, but my point was that everyone in the leage could deny income for the dominant force during the whole season if there is no income from WO.

As stated before I play against a bot, so the opponents minutes are not a problem - if I played a human I would never think about losing intentionnaly in the finals.

I could play with my worst three players BUT I am quite sure I'd win this game because my motivation is really high and the lucky fans are not that bad at all - at least from what I experienced in the past. And winning the title with a lineup of weakazoids would not be a pleasant result imo.
