Nice theory, Master Yoda. Sounds plausible to me.

I wouldn't be betting on it but I have just had the experience myself where I have been like, "What? He never fouls out! And against a lucky fan! He should kill him!" Neither of us should take just a couple of examples and extrapolate from them and try to form definite conclusions. However it is a theory.

I've watched all the teams playing against this team (52962) that doesn't dress up a single player and nearly all of the starters foul out just a quarter or two in the game. ALL THE GAMES. Good thing is players can still hope for 30+ minutes as the GE assigns them minutes according to how many players dress up for the game. But some who setup his trainee to get 48 minutes will go into a fit of rage. Like me.

I know people will say, then just play max 5 players so everyone gets 48 minutes. But this pretty much messes our players minutes, at least me, for the next GS update. I like players having some games here and there, some minutes here and there considering most don't have good stamina to play 48 mins effectively.

Edit: I forgot to add that players get minutes assigned arbitrarily by the GE regardless of how many minutes they played before fouling out. Starters get the most, then backups, then if someone dresses reserves, will get some tiny minutes too. At least this is from my experience watching all the games by this team twice a week.

+1 ball for you.

I just clicked on a random game (the one before ASB) and advanced to 47 minutes guess what? The real team had 7 guys fouled out and had to start playing their own lucky fans and two of them had fouled out as well.

Does seem to support my hypothesis.

When the game is a walkover (less than three players dressed), you might as well not watch the game because none of it is real (except I think injuries can actually happen). Minutes get assigned as 36 for starter, 10 for backup, 2 for reserve, except if you play someone at all three you only get them 43 minutes.

I watch it as it was interesting to see how the game plays out. It's not like I watch the whole game. Every now and then I'll look into the other games in my league. It's also something I wish could be change as it messes up everyone's training minutes. Imagine playing these kind of thrash every single week, we can't get any training done.
