Thanks for putting this effort into getting a concrete, coherent and comprehensive argument supported with evidence. There's not much that I can add about the respect you've gained by doing this in a calm and level headed manner.

But I'm feeling a little jealous from you stealing the spotlight.

In all seriousness, the admins basically have a 24 hour deadline to respond with solution(s) or the little patience that the majority has will boil over.

If you want to put the genie back in the bottle, restore the server to end of season, and restart. Don't chop its head off.

Probably this is the only possible solution that we have.

Thanks rebsiot for putting in so much effort.

great point, thx for the time you've used to say what a lot of people think....

there should have been a messenge or something to say, hay that's wrong, if you do that, you' be punished... but nothing happened...

2 extra things:

1.- no law can affect something that happened before the law was created. thus, it would be fair to punish the players who take advantages of this situation in the next transfer market, but not in this. it's unfair, how could i know it was a bug, a fault, or whatever if that's may first season in the game....
it had sense;
a.- the players without contract are going in audition. that's to say: if you really want this player, pay for him and assure yourself you have the player.
b.- if noone makes an offer, the faster manager will get it, but you're not sure you'll have the player. you're taking the risk of loosing the player if another manager is faster than you... so you may say, well if you really wanted, you should've bought him in audition.
i mean, it was not strange to take this into account during last week transfer window.

2.- the screen to buy a player without contract has a particular design, what shows that it was known by the adms... i mean if you want to buy a player in audition, or making an offer to another manager, you have four slots with the amount of money you pay, the amount you would pay if another manager makes an offer at the same time, and slots for salary and contract length. and of course we can refer to the minimun free clause...
this weekend, when you tried to sign a free player there were just two slots... salary and contract length (i said that because when i saw it i really think this situation of buying free players, was right) how can it be that a bug had a special page, i mean, it should have been the same page with the four slots, perhaps with the possibility to put in $0 the offer, but never could have been considered a bug a page with a different design.


sorry for my english, i tried to do the best i could

I had the same point. Why in the world are we (again, the 90% who did not knowing look for a loophole) being punished when we had no idea what we were doing was punishable?

I know the counter argument is that they had to "level the playing field", but that's silly because most likely the only people who missed out on the end of season signings were the people who don't really pay attention to the game, or the people that are so new to the game, they don't know how to scout for players.

Actually, the people that benefited the most were probably the more seasoned players (i.e. not me) that know how to search properly and do so regularly, so the argument that a noob like me would have like a 60 team (mine was around 45 at it HIGHEST and with a really messed up config to fit the players positions) and dominate seasoned players, holds no weight at all.

Yea, I'm beginning to get frustrated and angry with the utter lack of response.

No, "you have a point" "sorry that you were impacted " only deflecting and blaming the victim.

Hey, I have access to strike news... That might get attention....i'll see if frigging anything gets addressed by morning.

This game was addictive, too. I should thank them for helping me break the habit

Well, @Rand was online for at least an hour this morning and didn't reply, so I'm not hoping for much. I've started sending PMs instead. Publishing is a great idea, can you fill the page with stories, if you can find some other people who can publish? 21/06/2011 09:59
