    What changed with the arrival of the associations competition was the reason to play. Now there is a good and golden reason to deliberatley not level up season after season. Why would anyone have done that before associations? To gain resources to create a monster team that would last for 5 or 6 seasons? Ok, but then they'd have to repeat the cycle of tanking for the following 5 or 6 seasons.
    I can understand the boredom being suffered by managers at the top of their servers leading them to find a reason to play within associations, but really, repetitive tankers affecting the outcome of tournaments through proving they have the better team, or simply to piss someone off.....is that fair play? Is that the spirit of Top Eleven? Is that what we want?
    Another point can be, "why don't merge the tankers"?

    So, the system could recognize double season tankers and put them all together, so is like keep some freedom to tank but creating a line between "real competitive teams", those who play for promotion and those who force the tanking.

    A Pique of boredom can always be offset by a Shakira of excitement. No?

    Mmmmm. I don't think merging the tankers would work. Imagine the squad lineups. 10 left midfielders facing 10 right midfielders!?
    Besides the broader point I'm trying to make is; where in life/the world does anyone set out to fail? Is Zidane sitting in his office right now congratulating himself on how well things are going. "Bueno, bueno, bueno ya vamos por la liga Nivea."? Is Nadal about to play in Australia hoping to get knocked out in the 1st round so he can jump into his Kia and visit Ayers Rock ( or whatever it's called now )?
    Deliberately fail at the defining concept of a game in order to succeed at an addition. Only in Top Eleven, no?
