I can't help but grin at this thread.

Actually:

For the people who missed it, the OP made this thread a week ago: http://forum.topeleven.com/top-eleve...tml#post174901

He tanked for 2 seasons and manipulated his way to an easy cup draw. Seems there are more people who are capable of doing the same.. As I said in that thread:

Guess you might get kicked out further than you thought you would. But was 2 months of tanking worth this? Heh. Just play the game as it comes instead of trying to manipulate the entire system.

This cup system is about as fair as it gets. What on earth is the glory in the CL and League where you can simply win by having much higher quality players (bought with real money)?
I love the cup for this very reason. You usually play against someone of your own level. If you don't, they manipulated the draw heavily. But as this thread proves, even those players will feel the pain at some stage.
At least the cup TRIES to put you in an equal level playing field unlike the other two competitions.
