you are his rival, if he lost his revenue will suffer


Not at this point of the season - that all resets in the offseason, and that sort of thing doesn't really have a large influence on attendance in the playoffs either.

The schedules are kind of weird sometimes. I've seen teams end their seasons with a combo TV/rivalry game. And earlier in the season, teams can have 2 TV games in 7 days. (which means that the first of those is essentially meaningless...)

I'm wondering if you'll make any playoff predictions this season. I still remember last season, when you off by over 130 points on a single game!!!

Wasn't even aware that I could've leapfrogged the Clogs. Or that I was 16-5! Wow, that's not bad at all, considering that 4/5 of my best players were complete rejects I got for free almost.

Anyway, there was basically no chance I could've beat the Clogs in a playoff game, so 2nd or 3rd really didn't matter. By finishing 3rd I get to take half of his arena revenue. And... he has to cleanup after Vardis Sourpis(s).




Did you know all of this? Your words say no, your eyes say maybe, your browser history showing your purchase of tickets for the Lisa Loeb concert at my arena the afternoon of our playoff games says "YES, PLEASE!"

Your words say no

I don't listen hard, I don't pay attention to the distance that you're running or to anyone, anywhere. I don't understand if you really care, I'm only hearing negative: no, no, no.

I think the important thing here is that we come together on some sort of consensus of what the next female sorta-one-hit-wonder from the 90s to book as an act in our ongoing banter. The first one that comes to mind at the moment is Natalie Imbruglia but I'm not really sure that represents the high quality of artist that we represent; I mean, Lisa Loeb I think had the first ever #1 song that wasn't signed on a record deal, and Paula Cole sang with Peter Gabriel. Those are lofty standards.

On the other hand, if my fans cared anything about standards they'd stop showing up to my games or the post-game concerts. So I suppose there's some wiggle room, though I suspect that "wiggle room" is what Sourpis calls it when he's marking his territory.

Would you say that you're a little Torn ?

Yep, this is how I feel.

I hear Dido is pushing for a comeback.

On another topic, does anyone know how player salaries for being the fifth place teams works?
I haven't been in 5th place, well, ever, so I'm trying to model my finances for the next few weeks and I thought that this week I'd pay 50% of their salaries and then 0% the next week. I might be looking at the timing wrong, but is that idea sound? Will I have one week at 50% salary and then one week with paying no salary before next season starts?
The reason I ask is that on the econ update I just got hit with full salaries.

Thanks,

Iguanadon

You should have, in theory, only paid 50% this week. Because of the delay in the processing the playoff brackets you ended up paying 100%, but it'll be fixed. Next week, you'll pay no salaries. The following week is the start of the new season and you'll pay your full salaries even though there's a 50-50 chance you won't have a home game to offset that salary.

Thank you.
So I'll get a refund of sorts for this week?

Ah, never mind, I found this topic in the bugs section of the forums.
People are all over it.
