Can you guys all lose against me? The faster everyone drops out, the more money and closer to striker cup I will get. 07/07/2013 18:43

So - lots of funny comments on this thread guys - thanks for all the input! lol. I need to stop being lazy and make that special formation that puts everyone to the sides.

Basically, I put effort at 0, switched to basic formation mode with a standard formation and put my subs in. Not a bad solution - BUT the problem was that the next day was 4th of July and I didn't get a chance to switch my effort or formation so I played with those settings in my next league game....and somehow WON 3-2?! Muahahah.


And, it's not that I'm good, it's just that I'm lucky.

I still think there should be an option to forfeit, as much of a lame move as that is.

I'm not 100% sure if I need the FF at the end, but I am assuming it's a constant of some sort - maybe the goalie spot? I didn't want to spend the time to find out what position did what in the position code, so I just put all zeroes. This will put all your guys in the lower left-hand corner of the pitch, with a normal starting position.

You'll want to copy and paste it and then adjust for your normal roster spots in an advanced formation for it to work, but yeah. It's terrible. Hopefully I lose!

EDIT: I added paragraph breaks, so it didn't screw up the formatting of the forum.

Not sure why you want to lose the cup so badly. The cup is free money with a bit of stamina needed. If you can get an away game against a division 1 team, yes you may lose, but you'll get $10-$12 million, which is a couple of home games based on your stadium.

Also, at your team ranking (4,200 or so), you'll rocket up the team ranking list if you can go even a few rounds farther. Most of the teams above you have likely already lost, so you'll move up fairly quickly.

Higher team ranking leads directly to higher tickets revenues in EVERY home game FOREVER.

Agreed. I totally understand not wanting to go all out and try to win, because the league is more important, but to go out and purposely try to lose is just silly to me.
