Game engine tweaks - you thoughts?

[SimplySimon]

I know I'm in minority but between my 3 teams, my brother's 5 teams and few other ones I follow, I'm not seeing any issues with recent results or possession. Based on 'how are you doing' thread, I see that I'm in minority. I've watched probably around 500 T11 matches and I can maybe count on one hand the number of games that completely shocked me. Maybe I've just been lucky, idk.

P.S. I have always thought that possession and statistics in general do not mean much in this game so I am never paying too much attention to it to evaluate the game, my team, etc.

No, you're right in a lot of ways. I've seen very few individual results that shocked me, but the run of results I have experienced has surprised and disappointed me. One of the best teams in all competitions I am in, I have just three wins to show for my team building efforts

In the league, the only teams below me are completely abandoned with few players showing in the team (bottom two), or semi-abandoned with players out of position. I sit eighth and the unbeaten league leaders, almost a full 10Q lower than me, play with an illegal formation

It just doesn't make sense to me

But then perhaps I have become a mouth-foaming, ranting, venting keyboard warrior - albeit with a distinct Britishness

Might be time to retire from the forum and stop taking the game so seriously again. Funny thing is, as I highlighted above, since my first two seasons I've generally noticed that the less time I put into the game, the better my team does

That sounds bad, I just didn't see it on my end and I will just be happy about that I guess

Cannot agree more with you. I also shared the same experience this seasons. My brother and I had 4 accounts in total. We both felt that we got way better results when we didn't watch the game.

My team also had the best Q in my league. I rotated 22 players ranging from 4-6 stars so that I have full energy before each game. The players' morale always more than 90%. I played counter formation every match. I watched almost every match while my my opponents usually didn't. But all I got are some random results without any rationales or logics.

I also realized that NGE seems to recognize the ways you spend your token on and try to suck ur blood to the most. 1st example: all matches in last season were spread from 5PM to 4AM so I spent some tokens to re-schedule some of the games so that I can watch. Now I realized all my league matches (95% of them thru out the season) were around 2-4AM. 2nd example: I got 2 accounts. Whenever one accounts has more than 40-50 red packs, the team got a lot of injuries (1-2 per day). This has been happening in the last 3 seasons.
