So I was wondering, since most of us are focused on league this season, should we maybe do like the Butt Pirates do, and only go partial effort vs each other in PL? Not saying we should copy the 25% rule the Butt Pirates use to keep their teams rested and fresh for league, but the idea isn't a bad one... If we all go less than 50% effort, it will really come down to player skill/formation rather than effort for all the marbles.... Thoughts? |

I've played 10% today. And I think I am going to do it every game. temenem told me " I'll take it easy " but I think he doesn't dominate english at all  I think I am going to save stamina till I am out of the SC (1 week) |

But I did take it easy, switched to 30% effort after 2:0, despite goal difference being important. And I had only 47% possession. Wow, Bernie's rocking the top... And me, Uru and Westy are tied at 12pts. That's why the goals are important. Last season I was 2nd because of goal difference, eh?  Edited by temenem 14-07-2012 12:02 |

But anyhow, I have a starter team (76avg) for the official league, and I have a bench team (71avg) for the private league. And I usually don't mix them. So I have two separate teams, and one of them is always recharging stamina while the other is playing. For the Cup, I pick one or the other, starters or bench, depending on the opponent. And it also works good for injuries, to have a backup of each position. But whatever you (we) decide, I'm in. It will take some fun out of the game, but... I managed the stamina issue without cutting corners. But I dropped out of Div1... Edited by temenem 14-07-2012 13:17 |

I do the same but I'll need starters to beat Yokojones --> I have to use bench on league games --> I have to use 0 effort on PL games. temenem said: It will take some fun out of the game, but... Why do you think it will take fun? It is the same but instead of playing with 70 or 80 effort we play 10 or 20. |

It will be slow and uneventful, like some Div6 game... |

Why don't we say up to 50. Thus 50 max, then everybody can decide for himself 0-50. We'll save stamina and still stay competitive and interesting. |

Edited by temenem 14-07-2012 12:02 That was a very lucky win today..... I'm against this effort fixing business, since my whole strategy is based on the fact, that I have a very deep team, so that I can have a full rotation for every game and hence play every game with very high effort. That's the only reason why I'm at the top of the table right now in PL and was able to finish mid of the table last season. Don't forget my team has always been the weakest in this PL as far as average is concerned. If I have to play with the same effort as my opposition I would loose my only big advantage. For example today's game against General Maximus would have been surely lost if I was forced to play with 25% instead of the ca. 80% I played. Even with my effort advantage (General Maximus told me last night he would play with 25%) I was damned lucky to pull this one off, it could have easily gone the other way. |

Yes, I too can afford higher effort thanks to my squad structure. Either way, I'm cool. |

Sounds like you just need to adjust your tactics bernie. You should beat me quite easily with that squad. |
