I am pretty sure this has been suggested before but, the last 2 weeks I have sent out 8 scrimmage requests BOTH weeks and both weeks none of the teams accepted them. I think if at the scrimmage scheduling deadline, if you don't have a scrimmage scheduled, the computer should automatically assign you to a team to scrimmage.

Mainly this is coming from me being mad that no one will accept my scrimmage requests, but still I think this would help...

i like it more when you get a pool like in Hattrick, because a scrimmage deadline with everyteam getting a scrimmage, takes away the oppurtunity to don't play a scrimmage if you want.

The scrimmage, pool have some setting, with criterias to search for an opponent, and if a team joins which fit to the criteria and you are the first team in line to play those team the scrimmage get scheduled.

Or, maybe input a button where the team can accept all scrimmage offers.

that would not help much, unless you could define which countries you dont want to play (for those keen on collecting flags)

and no one has even sent me a scrimmage the last 2 weeks so that wouldn't help me :P

but if you see there are scrimmages sent to you, I would think you would always accept one

For the time being, talk smack to people in the forums and challenge them to a scrimmage to prove their meddle. Sounds kinda nuts, but I feel your pain on how hard to find an opponent, so just throwing an idea out there lol.


bad idea!


If you want flags though, nobody will accept USA, tooooo easy to get. They reject Japan half the time as well even!!! I send out 20 requests a week or so.....


not everyboday is a flag chaser, and hey i mostly get my scrimmage with my first 15 request, even when i searched the smaller countrys. So a lot of people ain#t flag chaser, and would treat germans, american and japanese teams the same in my experience.

I send out about 10 requests a week (random teams, random countries), and one always gets accepted, I've never gotten an offer though..

I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I cant accept not trying. - MJ

I rarely send out scrimmage requests, I get dozens asking me each week anyway, though I hate scrimmages so generally try to avoid scheduling them unless absolutely necessary haha.
