So if the team play against Hoop hooray, with normal vs normal it starts winning, when if have no chanche with normal vs TIE? The team who have chanches with normal against normal against them, should have the same possibilities to play tie like hoop against the opponents and should have the same advantage and in this case it becomes a strategic part, if you play TIE and loose a game which could cost the hca against the other superior team, or if you play normal more often win all leagues secure and have a sligthly disadvantage in the confrontation with the other superior team, which could cost also hca which will be a deciding factor in the PO.

But it isn't a changing anything in favour for hoop, that his team play in a kindergarten if you remove tie.

PS: Ok in the BBB, he got an advantage through it, because other team have more serious competition in their other games.

No, that's not correct. :) The thing was that no team used to be good enough to win against Hoop Hoop Hooray (HHH) except perhaps if they threw away a CT agaianst a TIE from HHH. Thus, all other teams new that they had to throw away their chances of reaching the playoffs by playing CT agaianst HHH if they wanted a realistic chance to win. Consequently we all chose to play TIE against them, which they knew of course. Thus HHH could play TIE without even worrying about the opponent playing CT, and as the season progressed and enthusiasm was built they only became more and more dominant.



Why has no-one talked about collusion to CT dominant teams? I am sure if 4 or 5 teams in the JBBL all agreed to CT me no matter when or where all season i would for sure slip up every now and then..... i am sure this would also be true for many other teams who typically dominate their league/country.

No idea why no one has done that. For me the collusion problem is not really a big issue, it's merely a bad side effect od a system that in itself is bad and clumpsy, so I prefer to focus on changing the enthusiasm system as such rather than the small side effect of this bad system.

I vote for removing TIE, too. The fact that people use this option offering it to each other to raise their enthusiasm (which does have a significant effect on the game) is inacceptable.

My suggestion is, if it can't be removed and people want to keep it in the game tactics: Lower the impact of enthusiasm in games and strengthen the effect of team skills and tactics on the outcome of league matches.

No, I tottall disagree... A team in real life is able to play with the backups cin an easy cup game and arrange for the starters a relax programm the day before the game against their rival...

. Try to look at that thing by this way - how many times anybody usually get by "accident" TIE game on both sides? The probability that you will TIE and the other team do the same is quite small.



This is absolutely false. I have NEVER arranged a mutual TIE, yet it happens all of the time in my league games. Managing enthusiasm is part of the game, and if two players do it well, it doesnt imply collusion not one bit.

Take it Easy is a term many people have a problem with, it implies no effort at all. Change from TIE, Norm, and CT to Trying hard, trying really hard, and trying really really hard and half of these arguments are moot.

but the fact that there is collusion is really not speaking for TIE. still if people email each other to play normal, i think that's using the power of the enthusiasm in a negative unfair way.

i think enthusiasm is way too overrated anyways in this game, and would vote for giving more tactical options for coaches and give then tactics more importance and more impact than enthusiasm.

i think we can use TIE in a game but not consecutively. as ive seen last season PO contenders TIE their last 5 games. in reality i think a team wont play easy 5 consecutive games so they can get superstrong later.
