Subject: Ranking affected by arcade games

We will find out in 3 seasons +.

Bal is correct though about arcade.

5 years ago I used arcade to gain ranking because it gave me extra weekly income, better cup seeding, nothing bad comes out of high ranking.

Not sure if it still works like this.

I think friendlies should be taken into consideration, and ''count, as they are in fact 'real' matches that your club plays. If a manager don't want them to affect, then he has a very easy option: not to play friendlies at all. Else, if he wants the extra training, then he can look for balanced matches, or easy ones, or tough ones, so he has any option here too. But, I guess also there are, and there will always be, users who want all the benefits but none of the drawbacks...

On the other hand, arcade 'matches' are non-existant, but mere simulations, ideal 'what-if's'. As such, they should never had to have any effect in the ranking, and less indeed in a global ranking which encompasses all users, not only those who are plus, as having 'ghost matches' affecting odds, expectations and incomes, is simply, anti-rel and absurd.

For me adding 2 League games per week was worst decision ever for sokker ...

100% agree.

I agree also about the league games increase per week but we will have to see how we will adapt of they do it.

about the friendlies I would insist that they should not be taken into consideration for the ranking..friendlies should be used only for training and extra income (and also tactics testing etc for the users that have not plus).

anyway..every opinion is useful here..and even if we just get the devs to stop the ranking effect only in the arcades it is a progress in my book.
