from your original comment yesterday
I still managed to lose 8 fans. NO WAY IN HELL that happens in real life. The fan mood engine for this game is FUBAR, and really does need to be fixed.
This supports what I am saying. Your(my) fans actions depend more on expectations then current winning streak.
Using your logic, "this makes no sense at all" as you have a 2 game winning streak and your are in 3rd place, both better than my current situation.
Using my logic, My fans are unhappy I lost but this is offset some because I am doing better than last season's 6th place finish. And your fans are not happy with your 3rd place standings, but offset somewhat my your winning streak. I can see how the 2nd part could be debated, i'm positive you would be losing more fans if you had lost this week and i'm sure you agree.

also my early cup exit didn't help, I didn't check yours.
1 more thing, as now I'm starting to rant. IMO
Your way of thinking we could NEVER catch Lakay or Slammy as long as they stay interested.
My way of thinking we can.

Fan, I hope you join back in, didn't mean to send you that far off the deep end.
Dags, I hear what you are saying, but from where I am today (in 3rd), is it that far off from where I finished last season? and btw, the season is still going on, so I could just as well finish in 2nd place again. While I want to say "Why does the AI in the game have all my fans jumping off buildings" I don't need to ask why, because I already know that it's set up that way. Again, I don't think we should spending our time debating "Why" the game performs the way it does. We should be talking about how to improve the game so that people enjoy the game and don't get tired/frustrated with it, so that we can keep people involved.
As far as your point about catching Lakay and Slammmy, perhaps we shouldn't be able to catch them. They run great clubs, and they have most likely been established longer than anyone else in the U.S. Maybe the only we catch them is when they fold their team. You shouldn't expect younger clubs to compete against clubs who have been established for 80-100 years. I don't think we should make it easy for someone to come in, whip up a team in 6-12 months and then compete a team in the ML. That wouldn't be fair to LaKay or Slammmy. I think they have earned to be where they are. I think I'm getting off topic here.
All I am saying is that Fan mood/effects in this game, is extremely off par from what it is in real life. It's not even close, I'm just saying that maybe it needs to be reeled in just a little to make it somewhat resemble something more realistic.
My other thought on the topic is that we are probably never going to grow the U.S. user base anyway and that all this talk is a waste, because people in the U.S. are more interested in baseball/football/basketball.

Anybody live in Akron? I hear they have a bunch of young people who like soccer there.
Smirker, I'll just agree to disagree on the fans. If I was a fan of your club I would not be happy. I'm not arguing for the fan mood engine, I'm saying your fans should not be happy because you beat 2 teams you were suppose to.

IT's not like anyone here can make anything happen anyway.
Hopefully powerplaymanager will one day implement a game viewer and better tactics in their game, then that game will be the Beeznees!

I'm not upset whatsoever. You're the one typing essays to explain yourself...

Yeah that doesn't make sense, unless there are saying you have too many fans already :P
I am very glad to see your response, because if you were about to stand up for the game again, I was going to make some unpleasant comments.
Do you now agree that the Fan Mood engine is broken and needs to be addressed/fixed, or at least the Dev's need to go back and at least look at it?

I would like an explanation in how it works instead of having to speculate like I am, but then again isn't that more life like than having some devs tell us how stuff works in the real life...
Its a simulation, not everything is or can be like real life. I prefer to adapt to the game then to complain that it doesn't work the way I think it should.
just saying
edit: BIG EDIT LOL
I'll complain about Red Cards til the end of time.
