Now that we have some more data I am astonished about the calculation of the overall summary of the fan's attitude:

My single stars in 5 categories add 5 + 2,5 + 4 + 4 + 5 = 20,5 (in this order; no ratings so far for rival, cup and TV).

Divided by 5 would be ~4,1 - but I only reach 3,5 according to the survey.

Explanations (attempts...):
- in the rules it is evident that certain aspects of the survey (e.g. last season) can change their importance throughout the season,
- some questions are more important than others,
- inaccuracy.

In my case the only weak point is this season's performance. Due to 1-1 I receive only 2,5 there. So this seems to be valued much more than any factor.

Edit: PR 10

Only concerning the point about this season's performance:

Also with a view to real life, any judgement on a season after 2 out of 21 matches would probably be accompanied with the words "so far" and a certain emotional/mental reservation.

Probably top values cannot be achieved before the season has seen a few more matches and allows a more solid judgement. Just guessing.

Home in the Cup, TIE, won by 47, half a ball!
My fans are tough to lease.

i think they got bored since you toast your foe to early and easily

dont worry the season just started

Mine are so easy... :)

After this first week, some points about my fan survey [;)]

I won my 3 games since the beggining (2 league and 1 cup, the B3's don't count for fan survey, but I won it too [:p]).
Last year I won division I and National Tournament.

My fans are for each questions:
1) happy of last season: 5bb (no change)
2) happy of how the team plays this season: 3.5bb (loose one ball after my victory in cup yesterday, maybe bugged?)
3) made a good run in National Tournament: 2.5bb (from N/A quite normal as it's the beginning)
4) played well on last game: 5bb (no change)
5) played well on TV game: N/A
6) played well against my rival: N/A
7) Knows the star players: 3bb (from 3.5)
8) General Manager made everything he can to improve the team: 5bb (no change)
9) Fans are happy of the way I manage the club: 4bb (from 5bb, 1 loss after yesterday win in National Tournament)

I think it's a bit annoying if I win everything without solding my star players, playing well, and have a bad fan mood, no?

The "last game" question on the fan survey applies only to league games. We have clarified the language on the page, though it may take a few hours for that change to find its way into all of the translations.

It is also important to remember that this page is a survey, based on a small sample of fans. It is possible for the results of questions, like "I am pleased with the team's performance last season", to change survey-to-survey, even when the events underlying the question have not changed. However, if different groups of fans consistently giving you different ratings (e.g. varying between 2.5 and 3 stars), it is probably a good indication that your fan base as a whole feels somewhere in between.
