It is true that the weekly profit in the economy doesnt factor in that their are only 11 home games in an 11 week season, it also should be remembered that the "weekly profit" figure doesnt include cup winnings.

I agree it shouldnt be a problem for the seasoned managers but I can understand how it would catch out new managers.

perhaps an extra line could be included in the economy.

Underneath weekly profit an extra line could be included that is titled "seasonally adjusted" weekly profit or loss, that factors in the extra weeks without income.

Downside of this is that experienced managers like myself mightnt be able to benefit from the fire sales that the inexperienced and or financially stupid Managers have to have.

Market is too hot at the moment with teams trying to increase the depth of their rosters to counter the death of LCD, so perhaps we could bring forward the Allstar week

Agree with Manon. All teams play under the same set of circumstances. In a given season you have the same number of economic updates and home games as any other team. It's your responsibility to plan accordingly.

But not all homegames are equal. Having a homegame on the first Saturday and having one on the last Saturday are not equal at all because there are games on that last Tuesday but not on the Tuesday before the 1st game of the season.. Starting the season on a Saturday is stupid and has been bitched about since at least season 7.Most people think that it would only be fair that the season start on the Tuesday so every team has a homegame during the first economic update.

All who are complaining about this, repeat this mantra:

After my first season in the game, nothing about the schedule is a surprise, and I can plan my finances accordingly.

Agree

Lets not distract the owners of this game from what is needed to save it

that being a Free Good Quality App

Whinging about non problems is only a distraction

If one team in the league has 11 weeks with home games, and 1 with no home game for a season, and then the next season he has~
5 weeks with 2 home games, 1 week with 1 home game and 6 weeks with no home games...

You really gonna tell me this guy is not a bit surprised/caught offgaurd????

I'm gonna tell you he's playing some other game, not BB.

Making up shiite like that does not elevate the discourse. Why do you waste our time this way?

Not 6 straight weeks, 6 weeks of the season in which there was no home game. Search your league. YO uwill find atleast 1 person who has 3 weeks (not straight) with no home games. You should also find, rather easily, somone with 2 seperate weeks wiht no home game BEFORE a week with 2 home games. So in essance, 2 weeks of missed income before a double income return. YOu'Ll find probably one in each conference, maybe two.

Let me explain this to you ...
3 weeks does not equal 6 weeks. Two weeks does not equal six weeks. Two weeks twice does not equal six weeks. Now we are clear.
And of course there are teams with a week without home game income -- that has been me in the first week of at least the last three seasons IIRC. It is not an issue, though.

You are also right that in my first season the week with no home game income caught me by surprise ... for about two minutes. Then I planned for it and saw it for the non-issue that it is. Complaining does not turn a non-issue into an issue. I would have thought that you would be in favor of little things like this that do not bother managers smart enough to plan ahead, but might trip up the managers whose first impulse is to whine instead of figure out how to plan for something like this. Surely you do not stand with the whiners instead of the planners, do you?
