Subject: I don't want to quit...

... but the writing's on the wall.

I was bored stiff in B this season, with a 40-something goal differential. I saved my money and timed my purchases so that I could be competitive in A the next chance I got. I spent $10M on players over the past week, and another $1.2M on my stadium in preparation.

Then my #1 striker gets red-carded early in my qualifier. I lose.

What am I going to do now? Suffer through another FN season in B? 100 GD?

I am so angry right now. I love this game, but I hate it, too. Not sure if I can sit through another season in B.

Rant over.

It happens. Happens to all of us, really. I should have won my A league this season, but I didn't.

me too!! look at my game... such a shame, to get loss in the last minute of an extra time....

I guess I don't understand how one team can dominate an "upper-tier B league", and not be able to beat one of the worst teams in A.

Can we make qualifiers a best-of-five?

that's just bad luck...I guess, however, around 85% games won hosts...is it weird?

At least ur not going back to C -_-. One damn mistake i made and my players all screw each other up, and im in C, yay for me

Dude, I am sorry for it but you ought to know that you are not alone in the unluckiness of happenings. Last season, afeter 4 in B-League, I had the chance to promote, exceot my youngster Castro decided to miss a PK in the 120th minute and again in PK`s to send me for another season in the unbelievably strong B-3. Do not lose hope dude...whatever does not kill you nakes you stringer...I was promoted this year, stronger than ever.......Good luck next season and do not lose hope....

Hey i was ahead the whole season and lost a game deserve to tie, but hey, life isn't fair, in real like or online:).

You are not alone my friend.

I know it's not fair, nor do I expect it to be. My point is that I was bored in B this season using 35yo players to whip the rest of my series. Now how's it going to be that I've sunk a ton of money into the team.

Only worse.

I feel for you codymac.

there is way too much luck involved in these results for many of our liking.

I've been in your boat for quite some time.
If my online time really became reduced in the future (which I don't anticipate), I'd quit this game pretty quickly.

I used to believe tactics matter, but they really don't matter much. Luck can trump everything in the end.

it's way too aggravating. I actually felt HAPPY sandbagging my last match to pewsum, because I'd have been more pissed off at this game if I tried and beat him again, because then I'd have beaten him twice and still lost the division to BS results against weaker teams.

The only reason I stay on is because I have time invested, but I stopped really caring about this game about midseason.

I feel for you cody and islander.

How many times luck has tramped skill....

I however do believe tactics still have something to do with the game.

Not saying luck won't eventually win in the end, but there's things you can do to give yourself more chances for luck

I know, I'm not really even pissed that it happened. S happens, I know, and I can deal with it.

I guess I'm just trying to talk myself out of quitting the game. The bottom line is I'm still in B, be it tactics, bad luck, whatever. Sokker sucked this season for me in B. Sokker will suck worse for me next season in B. This makes me question staying on board.

That's all.

I would stay and have fun on the boards and in the stuff not sokkerwise.

Like for me, I have fun by doing stuff like making bets with guac and such.

My fun doesn't come from my season games, but more from the other stuff.

find other ways to enjoy the game until you get competitive.

but this way u can put ur better players to play in cup games, maybe u can get distracted with that...its only my humble opinion, and when u ascend will be easier to win and to get to premier ligue

I am not trying to be mean in any way but dude, this is the game, stop crying and bitching. Everyone wants to move up the rope and each one of us thinks that he is the best mangers around. Reality is that it is an online games and no one tries and screw you over. Get over it and try your best next season, jeezes Christ, you want to quit because you did not make it, how old are you???12????

that really sound mean xDD
