[Official] 7th June: Football Associations release

[Moi]

Will associations with 6 members get more points than associations with 5 members? Will they have an advantage to move up in the rankings over associations with less members?

No in terms of final rewards, for which only the position you end up in the tournament matters (1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th). But you get more points for every win ...

If we finish first we get 50 points, 2nd then 25, 3rd then 10, 4th then none

First get 50 points? So 200 maximum in one season - then how can any association get over 1000 points, when 20% is lost at the end of every season? We get up to 1000, then 20% down, so we have 800 and next season we can win 200 only again. But to reach platinum division you need 1350+.

There might still be a problem though as a member reported to me that the bonus values as viewed by him are changing after each login he does.

You're right, there is a visual issue indeed, which causes some bonus not to be shown depending on specific conditions. It will be fixed before the weekend.

@Moi what I'd read from the helpdesk is that if a tie is equal on points and goal difference, it goes to a penalty shootout. Well,
1. Who thought of that?(Joke question)
2. How will it take place?

[Moi]

Remember that these 50, 25, 10 points are extra points being given to an Association depending on its final position in the tournament. But Associations also get points for every win (3) and draw (1) during the tournament.

So, technically if you have more people in the Association you can indirectly get more points for tournaments. The final prizes are the same (50, 25, 10) but you play more matches so more changes to get +3 and +1.

So if my Association has 5 players, and we all win every game in Semi Finals and Finals, will we have 30(Semifinals total)+30(Finals total)+50(Tournament position)=110 points, or only 50 points as the Tournament position points?

The first case:

5 managers ---> 10 matches in semi-finals --> all won --> 30 points
5 managers ---> 10 matches in finals --> all won --> 30 points

So that's 30 + 30 + 50, 110 yes

Although it's very unlikely that you will win everything

Nordeus will make sure you don't... let the Trolling commence!
