This is how you tank...

[Razz]

and from what I read a lot of tankers using this method then spend the season playing with a team they have tanked and abandoned a couple of months before. This can't be in the spirit of the game and it distorts league tables.

Opening lots of different accounts and then abandoning, stacking teams, until a player thinks they will dominate, just seems wrong and very unfair on the clubs virtual fans.

Tanking is allowed here but I wouldn't want to shake a tanker by the hand!

One team, giving 100% to win every match, this is football

I have one account.
And this isn't football.
It's not even a good football simulation.
(That it's the best online football sim I've found yet says more about the competition than it does about T11)

so the tanking stats photo you posted at the top of this thread was from an older season?, or you tanked and still finished 2nd in the league?

Well done on a top 2 finish, but if you had all those skill points this season saved up, why not just add them and try and finish 1st? Surely trying win the current season is more important then whatever happens the season after?

I starting to think I'm missing something about tanking.

I tanked two seasons, then saved all points from the third.
And I did try to win the league this past season, but applying the skill points in the uncertain hope of winning the one game necessary to maybe win the league would have made the larger purpose pointless. If the guy who ultimately won had lost any of his last 6 matches, I could still have won the league.

I have a crapload of league trophies and CL trophies ... but no Cup trophies. I want a shot at a Cup trophy. That's the point.

Thanks for the reply ... This has given me more of an insight into the different ways people play this game.

So basically for you it's not about the achievement of earning the trophy, but about the trophy itself? The candy you take from babies is indeed tastier than regular candy..

I'll still be playing against teams 2 or 3 levels higher than me who have a huge advantage in that they can simply go buy (what to me are) 7 and 8 star players off the market. At least this time I'll have a fighting chance.

Curious that those who seem upset by this DON'T seem too upset about token buyers ....
