God, I'm so tired of your antics. Let me break it down for you one last time:

Wozz makes a three line post about hard-to-explain behavior by Peluin who damaged both his own team and wozz's (about this, wozz drops a passing four word comment).
You latch on those four words and reply with an edgy treatise (and a couple extra posts) about why various people's unexplainable behavior have screwed you.

Except, those people were largely *acting in their own interest*, so, not only your tone is completely out of place, but the situations are completely different.

:)
i'm the 1st to give this a ball
i like your passion on it

no one's arguing against that. (at least i'm not). this whole thing was about the *end* of seasons only. i even underlined "final full week". you're bringing up week 3 when you were still in the cup for some reason?


and your restriction to the "final full week" is because ... ? You distribute "right to complain" only based on the "final full week"?

because it was about the end of the season? he wasn't like "the early season really screwed me". "or the entire season screwed me". that would kind of change everything.

dude, you're missing the intention in any case.
btw, where did i say yesterday/today that someone wasn't "acting in their own interest"?
(ok using the word unexplainable, since you use it:)
it was portrayed as how from afar it could seem semi-unexplainable (even though, yes there are explanations) in the same way this last game he viewed as unexplainable. (even though there's also an explanation). all to make the comparison. i still don't see how he can complain about a blowout now, coming off those back to back 96 point blowouts at the end of last season. [if "unexpected" blowouts are good then it's good now. or it's bad both seasons. which is it?]


it seems you're reacting to tone. (maybe i'm tone deaf on all this?). if the tone is bad, i apologize. Now instead can you react specifically to things i wrote? & how is a recap of the end of S19 an edgy treatise? thanks.

or this whole thing can just be dropped.

No, your right. I brainfarted and thought it was the Finals schedule with 3 in one week. So a 2 game series for relegation would be best. 5th is only better if you're running negative each week, or the opponent has a tiny arena.

But wouldn't the relegation series have higher attendance levels, and be less influenced by what happened last game? I hope the last game has no factor in regular playoffs...my fans fucking hate me. 1st overall seed and my fan survey looks like they're talking about putting a hit out on me.

I wanted a game on Tuesday to PON for cup enthusiasm, especially after I saw WW add yet another player. If I went for the win I'd have been counting on Coco beating WW to get me 4th, and I figured that was far from a sure thing. So I decided to tank it and get the seemingly-easy relegation series vs. Boom. The lineup was injury avoidance of course, though I do feel a bit dumb for screwing around with the tactics for no real reason, that was a bit of a brainfart on my end and I sent wozz an apology.

I don't really care about the financial effects, I probably lose some money in the short term (because the rele series is the "salary-unforgiving" schedule) and long term (from next season's fan survey) but you gotta have goals

Holy crap, can't believe I didn't think of that. That's a great reason! (And phenomenal for me)

When do we find out the MVP again? I'm hoping one of my players can get a single vote this season. :)

Usually only playoff teams get players with any votes. And team record heavily influences everything. Maybe because you're 12-10, you've got a better shot than you'd think a 5th seed would.

I'm expecting Pratt to get a couple 1st place votes, but the favorite has to be Toni Alas from Lethargy.

I don't think i played him in enough league games this season. (Used him in like 8 cup games)
While Pratt played all but maybe 1 league game + has good scoring & rebounding numbers. and you've the best overall record. but who knows...

You've also got the 2nd highest rated player in the NBBA, Ives Wens. Who's probably also deserving of some recognition from the voters, but likely won't get any. (since not in the league leaders for any major stat)
