Oh, come on, now that too? What is next? If your trainee doesn't have mustache, he can't get but 36 training minutes per game?

It seems you don't want help. You just want to lash out. What's your trainees stamina? It's obvious you can help your players not to get tired if you play a slow tactic. Train his stamina up, so he can stay on the floor with no timeouts taken.

For God's sake, what is happening to this game?

It has always been the same. Nothing new is happening, where have you been?

I did everything to make sure my trainee gets his 48 minutes

Your trainee is never guaranteed to get 48 minutes. It's your 14-th season in BB. It's friggin amayzing you have never trained a player before:)

And it seems to me that you don't deserve your LA title.

You just want to lash out.

I just want to "lash out"? Are you serious?
I play 1. Strictly Follow Depth Chart; 2. Let Them Play; 3. My trainee is assigned as Starter, Backup and Reserve; 4. I select only 9 players for the game, so it is certain that no one takes his place once blowout time kicks in, and he still gets benched in favor of another starter who, by the way, has just as low stamina, and you tell me how I'm complaining with no valid reason?

Train his stamina up, so he can stay on the floor with no timeouts taken.

So, what you're saying is that players with low stamina can't stay the whole game on the floor? Really? Is that a fact? Well, as you have noticed, I have been playing this game for a while, and I never ever noticed that to be the case.
And what do you mean by "with no timeouts taken"? What does that even mean, seriously? Like my players don't rest when my opponent calls his timeouts? Oh, please. It's obvious that you're not interested to help me, but only to prove me wrong. Again, as someone who carries that LA title, I think you're kind of forgetting what your priorities on this page should be.

Where have I been? Where have you been? Do you read BB-Charles' updates? This game is a mess right now.
And no, it has not "always been the same". If what you're saying were true than 90% of our draftees would never receive their 48 minutes per game due to their stamina levels. And is that true? No, it is not. I had many trainees in these past "14th seasons in BB" and no one ever got benched because of his stamina.

Yes, I know that there is no guarantee. Injury can happen. Player can get fouled out. Yes, I know that very well, thank you very much. But if I set everything correctly, as I did, and none of the above happens, meaning no injury or foul trouble occurs, then GE should follow my orders, period. This is the first time ever that I hear someone from BB says how player can't stay on the floor for 48 minutes unless his stamina level is not satisfactory.
And "It's your 14-th season in BB. It's friggin amayzing you have never trained a player before:)"? Wow. Is that the best you got? I mean, second post in row? It is a bit redundant, don't you think? Not to mention how you are LA, buddy. Is that how BB-Charles or BB-Forrest or BB-Mark expect you to handle reports on this forum? I don't think so.

So you just got to know all this, but...

I find that a bit hard to believe.

4. I select only 9 players for the game, so it is certain that no one takes his place once blowout time kicks in, and he still gets benched in favor of another starter who, by the way, has just as low stamina

Regarding to this point. You do know that your other starter H.Viil was resting at the start of 4-th quarter and had only played 28 minutes at that point, so he was rested when he came on the floor? Your trainee has bad stamina, as he already passed out at 43+ minute mark.

This game is a mess right now. And no, it has not "always been the same".

Game is not a mess. Training has been the same for pretty long now.

90% of our draftees

... get fired!

This is the first time ever that I hear someone from BB says how player can't stay on the floor for 48 minutes unless his stamina level is not satisfactory.

It's common knowledge and now you know something new. There are chances of players getting those 48 minutes if you go with 5 players or sometimes if there are no dead ball situations (events that allow substitutions) in last minutes of the game.
NB! My LA title is for translating! It does not mean I can not say what I think/know is right on the forums. You make it seem like it's everyone else's fault that someone forgot to mention all the things that might influence a trainee getting 48 minutes. You already know most of the stuff needed to get the training. I say your trainee is getting benched because of low stamina. You refuse to believe it. You still have not mentioned his stamina. Want to get 48 minutes? Try to get your stamina level above 4 and play slowest tactic on scrimmage.

Just to support what you are saying... the stamine and pace issue is true.

And to Kumboky... shit happens, you can never be sure that your player plays 48 mins, you only give him more chances...
Stamina and foul problems are the main issues that players cant get them completely.

And to Kumboky... shit happens, you can never be sure that your player plays 48 mins, you only give him more chances...

Even if you do everything right on your behalf like set appropriate game orders and fill appropriate number of players? And no injury or foul trouble occurs?
I already quoted you in my opening post, so I don't wanna bother with it again, but I believe you advised someone how in order to give his trainee 48 minutes per game he should have "lined his trainee as both starter and backup and reserve" and then you even concluded how "you do that and you don't have any problems". Remember that?
So, suddenly from "I do this and I have no problems" we came to "you can never be sure that your player plays 48 mins".
You see, that is the part I hate the most. There is no consistency in these claims. First it was "you must play Strictly Follow Depth Chart", then it was "you must set your trainee to be the only player listed under that particular training position, meaning both starter and backup and reserve", and then it was "oh, one more thing - like you forget to mention that first time - you must also set your tactics as Let Them Play", and so on and so on, every time there is a new information but never ever is a bug. I bet if I said how my trainee's stamina is in fact fine, you or that Kukoc guy or someone third from BB would find something else to be a problem. I don't even know why this forum exists when obviously bugs don't happen in this game. Shit does, to quote you, but oh no, not bugs.

Everyone, the forum rules have been posted (205072.1). Please conform to them and do not get entangled in long discussions. It's becoming impossible to read this thread because of that. Just to be clear, posts need to be succinct and respectful, others will be deleted.

I had set my lineup like this

Eiss - Grzyniec - Grzyniec
Machado - Montana - Grzyniec
Garkajs - Montana - Grzyniec
Lemos Brito - Esteban Angulo - Nikolic
Magno Pasini - Nikolic - Esteban Angulo

However, Montana started over Garkajs.

Garkajs ended up playing a single garbage time minute as SG, as mentioned a couple times in the topic, his defensive position was switched, but that's something I've done for quite a while and never had any problem.

I'm sorry but you did it this way:

Eiss - Grzyniec - Grzyniec
Machado - Montana - Grzyniec
Montana- Montana - Grzyniec
Lemos Brito - Esteban Angulo - Nikolic
Magno Pasini - Nikolic - Esteban Angulo

In the following game (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/42297787/reportMatch.aspx) a wrong line-up had been used.

I've asked that Romeo Matas will be the starter PF, BUT Guy Timor had been the starter instead.
As a result, Matas had played at this game only 6 minutes and 9 minutes through out this week, and Timor has 100 minutes!!! this week.

I've verified that trying to set the same tactics for the next game...
At least it was a scrimmage, but it will affect my players GS and other.

And as expected that was what really happened:
1) Timor went from Strong to Respectable GS (instead of going to Proficient GS).
2) Matas went to Average instead going into Strong.
I believe that this could be fixed. Doesn't it?

You used the "use depth chart until fourth" coach setting. Using anything other than "strictly follow depth chart" can yield unpredictable minutes. It is a known bug which we be handled in the future.
