It could've been an honest mistake.

Since he sold off all his players a week before your scrimmage I would not have accepted his scrimmage. This is more your fault than anyone if your looking for someone to blame.

I don't agree with that. Maybe its just me, but I just invite people for scrimmages from the Manage my Team page. I check their world ranking and if it isn't ridiculously good then I invite them to a scrimmage. I never check the other teams roster etc. But then again I've never had a problem with someone forfeiting a scrimmage, so maybe that needs to happen before I start doubting teams I invite for scrimmages.

Not being thorough is not an excuse.

Are you saying that you scout your potential scrimmage opponents completely before inviting them every single time? Perhaps you do, but I doubt many people do. In my opinion, it is more the opponents fault for not submitting a team for the game. Or more importantly, it is their fault for accepting the scrimmage invite when they know they aren't going to submit a team.

I always check to see if they have forfeited any games. IF they have never done it they most likely wont again. If in the example that started this thread he had looked at either the Schedule page or the Roster Page Red Flags would have gone off.

I always look at my potential scrimmage opponents roster. It's always to look for teams with 10+ players. Why? Because you need more than 9 to play 3 games and maintain good GS. It's better to be safe than sorry:)

Is there anyway to forfeit a game on purpose?
Im going to be playing the 2nd ranked team of Canada and clearly I have no chance so what's the point of even trying.
I don't even want to know the end score when I play him.


As other folks have pointed out, there's not much to be gained by a forfeit. Maybe try our some different tactics to see what kind of ratings you get. Or use the game to cross-train some guys in positions you wouldn't ordinarily play them.

Being proactive, I see.
