Games Hattrick

[sainter]

This game really frustrates me. I mean all you can do is set your team up the best you can and rely on the old hattrick match engine but I won possession, my 3 defence sectors beat his 3 attack sectors easily, and 1 of my attacks (plus very closely matched in another) beat his defence.

Result - 1-3

I would LOVE D) to the double over the Stallions but having looked at the teams and being the away team I reckon I'll need the match engine to do me a favour to get over the line. A form increase for my midfielders tomorrow would be nice!

Too bad the old spectators will miss out on a good ol' spectacle. With my fans angry after my recent form, there'll be hardly anyone at the game. Bunch of losers, im 3rd FFS what more do you want!!!

You always cop a game or two like that a season I reckon, unless your in a bot league or your so far ahead in terms of squad that its almost irrelevant what the match engine does. This season I drew against the team currently 7th, despite dominating everything.

2 weeks ago, I was sitting 2nd and then 1st (just down from 4th, won all games) and 3rd (beats everyone but me) turned to bots, within 3 or 4 days of each other! Now I am top but will play a qualifier as I have already lost and drawn a game.

F***! Sainter's done the double on me now. Im struggling big time. After winning the first 4 games of the season, i've now only managed to win 1 and draw 1 of the last 7. Pathetic. Going to try and make a fire sale as soon as my striker goes up in passing (hopefully for about 10 million). Its taking ages, plan to sell off my 17 yr old mid as well (~3 mil) and make my defender become an excellent coach and pick up a gun midfielder. By not training a primary stat like most others, i'd assume im fairly behind other teams in their players primary stats, so i need to make it up elsewhere, the plus side is my wages are alot less than everyone else.

I expected you to win the midfield (well hattrick organiser did ) so I was pleasantly surprised with the 49% first half, 51% second half outcome.

You've got a tough game against Hillside next week but with the bottom two teams in the final two rounds you should be fine.

I'm up to 3rd place but I'm away to Goon Squad next week which is a certain loss. I'll be rapt with a top 4 position if I can manage it.

Its more that i just cant stand my stadium being wasted. Losing out 500k+ just because your fans are dumbarses and whinge when you can't win every game is frustrating. You only gain 1 or 2 fans when you win, but lose 8+ when you lose. They're mood is angry at the moment, but as far as season expectation goes, im above it! I don't like that aspect one bit, or at least there has gotta be a way to make it less reactive, probably buying more spokespeople would help, though i've got like 4.

I started the season with 4 wins, hopefully i can round the season off strongly now, i dont rate Hillside, the team is full of old geizers, but in saying that, i'll still lose next week.

 

[sainter]

That's fair enough.

Unfortunately with my loss the week before I lost 6 fans and my fan mood dropped to content so I didn't help you out crowd wise. I had 68,000 at home last week.

To be honest I like the concept of the season expectations but they've still got a bit of work to do. Being my first season in III my fans rightly predict that "we will have to fight to stay up". However in that case when I'm sitting in third position after 9 rounds and happen to suffer a loss to drop to fourth they shouldn't be cracking the shits. I'm like a newly promoted team from the CCC that is sitting in the top 10. They should be rapt with that.

It's to do with the fans soft cap I guess. There's a certain amount of fans that a III team should have and as a result when we get close to that number we are always going to lose a lot of fans after a loss. I'm still excited to have over 3000 after the 10% increase at the end of last season.

I see you've got your orders for next week in already. Hillside are going to suffer a Stallions backlash.

4 spokespeople?!?! Shouldn't you have a spokesperson for every 250 fans? The when you get to 2500 fans/10 spokespeople... your set. I have 10 spokepeople and they seem to keep my fans in chekc in terms of ins and outs. Only reason I don't sell out my stadium most of the time is cause I over bought a lil bit and the soft cap kicks in.

Sold 2 20 yr old magnificant midfielders last night, pocketed 11.5mil in total... now to buy some new trainees!

 

[RoJo Junior]

Really i dunno maybe thats playing a fair part in it. I haven't really checked out all the formulas and stuff i go by trial and error. May buy some more in the coming days then.

 

[B_GLassi]

just a question guys. I have a team in hattrick but my bro also wants to make one for himself. Can him making a team result in mine getting banned due to the cookies? He's obviously going to use a different email.

 

[RoJo Junior]

Nah you'll be fine. My brother has one, we verse each other in friendlies all the time, and i majorly own him

I've even sold him some of my rejects, as long as you don't do any real dodgy business it'll be fine.

You can always send a message to one of the Oceania GM's.

That way you'll be covered should they accuse you of something down the track.
