Subject: [DEV] International Cup

Only first season but then injuries loosing rating from strong teams and fans migrating to top countries ...

Tournaments should be splintered in group stage only between countries with equal size and play playoffs with all then it will be more fair else at least 4:5 seasons should be arcade mode till strength of teams adjust

But in all cases is stupid idea for this tournament enforcing another game per week to all is at least not correct

I'm not angry I want to play in this I always play in arcade tournaments I'm stating facts and you just attack me on personal level :)

And again you do not make correct statement and not answering my question leave Bulgaria and Poland aside


If x team plays 80 rating with 5000 ranking against y team 70:rating with 5000 rating is this fair is this a gift to x team?

Ranking doesn't matter economically, as far as I know it's only used for seeding national cups.

I think what he means is that two teams with same ranking will be paired together & the stronger one with same rank will have an easy win... but who knows what he means

Btw. if it WAS based on rank, then team #7 in Bulgaria Levski_Forever (5620.07) with rating ~74 would play at level of Polish team #104 in Poland AZ Chorzów (5624.21) with rating ~70

He thinks that weaker Bulgarian teams, but basically weak teams from every medium to small sokker nation, will be paired with much stronger Polish (i.e. top sokker nations) team, thus losing rankings, supporters, sponsors, attendance etc. and that what they poor teams had lost will go to richer Polish teams and the gap will become even bigger.

Poland is just a metaphor for for filthy rich and strong.

What about teams from second division ...or even last few teams in our top division you guys well understand what I mean

If you have eco system a 5 levels ecosystem b 2 levels you create bridge between them you cannot expect both eco system live on same ground as before obviously weakest eco system will collapse

You either merge them completely or you have to accept eco system b dies ...

What were the highest numbers of active sokker users and active Polish users?

100k and 20k?

Statements like who knows what he means are direct attack and provocative that's your style of communication

But let's give you one more thing to think

Nation a has 100 too players nation b has 10 top players you enforce one more week to all teams those top players most likely to play and get injuries more who gains from that ..

Before you build team attack first place and then you go cc now for me is better I can attack top tire directly ..
But what about those that do not want to attack top tire so whole idea is not well thought

If you want one more competition or fair games mac domestic cup like this and give few more top tire international tournaments give Poland 10 teams make domestic cup count but don't collapse economic structure if no plan behind..

Could you please explain to me, how international cup could directly (or even indirectly) impact the number of fan base?
