Subject: Supporters expectations

thoughts?

perhaps i think this was hidden and is now possible to see which will help explaining fans mood changes

·Supporters expectations

1. Totally outclassed here. Even your stars will be happy to get an opponents player autograph.
2. Your supporters hope the team won`t bring them too much shame in this match.
3. Supporters think the opponent is better, but with a little of luck you could spring a surprise.
4. This match is expected by supporters to be a tough and even game, with slight advantage of opponent team.
5. This match is expected to be a tough and even game by your supporters.
6. This match is expected by supporters to be a tough and even game, with slight advantage of your team.
7. Rival is respectable by your supporters, but they expect a win.
8. Your supporters are sure an easy win in this match.
9. Supporters come to eat popcorn, relax and watch a festival of goals from your team.

It would appear that some of this of worked out on how many supporters you have. Team strength is not really used from wait I see. This will make things tough for some teams and is why many people have complained about the system.

is this a new feauture then?

what is the aim of it, balancing out the number of supporters?

I honestly don't know, the idea is that if you have 2000 supporters and you lose to a team with 1200 supporters that your fans believe you are not a big club really and will leave......effectively anyway.

yep i see

Supporters Expectations
You can now see a new feature in the TV Studio for your matches. It is the supporters expectations about the match score. Of course if the match score is better than the fans expected this will improve their mood. If the score is worse this will make their mood drop. The amount of change in mood depends on how good or bad the score was. Levels of that expectations are listed in the rules. Like every levels in Sokker there is a hidden sublevel. For example if the expectation level is 5.1 this will be shown as 5.

Also with this news we want to reveal one of the supporters mood secrets - the class indicator used for mood calculations after a match. It was already said it depends on previous matches of a team, class of rivals competing and the scores achieved in these matches. This is all true.... because the class indicator is the Fanclub members of the team. Why it is fair? Let's say you draw with team with much less supporters, it means that score shows teams are fairly equal, or at least they were in the match just played, but supporters club is different. It simply means that some of your fans will think your team is not as big as they thought they were and their mood will drop. If the mood has dropped too low then some will then leave. The opposite effect happens to the opponent team. Their supporters mood will rise and if it becomes high enough new fans will join their club.
Similar situation on size of wins, if you win much less than expected against clubs with a lot less class (supporters numbers) than you the supporters mood will drop, the opponent supporters mood will improve. This calculation is based on thousands of match statistics. Please don't blame the system if you got a worse score than teams usually achieve, this will affect your supporters mood.

Notice that there is no modification to the supporters mood system - please don't report problems on supporters mood calculations. All complaints about supporters mood calculation have been analysed before, and if there was a problem it was taken into consideration already.

good change
at least it is all clear what is going on now
