How isn't there an official method to combat this bull? You shouldn't be able to remove or add new teams in assocs once the draws are made. Actually always thought this was the case. Shook.

I couldn't remove an inactive player today even thou our matches ended, we have to wait until the other 2 association finish too.
Maybe they have an abandoned 2° account and manipulate the draws with thoose and, at the week 4, they use their good accounts and win the 100 T.
Maybe is something abstract and complicated but it can happend, right?
The draw for associations is actually an hour or so before the tournament officially begins (you can see your next FA opponent in your fixtures then). Perhaps they substitute during this hour???
The leaving and rejoining isnt as bad as it appears from the outside. My association does this and it isn't helping us with the draw and it's not intended too. What's really happening in we are using the association friendly feature to play in tournaments/leagues against managers from different levels. Several facebook groups are organizing tournaments in this way and some world top 100 managers are playing in them. No foul or exploit :)
If it creates a competitive advantage, it's because these midweek tournaments/leagues create a genuine pvp environment against active managers that are good tactically and that knowledge gets shared. Whereas the league, cup and cl are more like a pve environment as toxcatl stated in a different thread if I recall correctly.
Before the effective draw of the semifinals is done (around 07:30-08:30 CET), there is an association grouping in subgroups
Subgroups are based mainly on Group quality, but also on points (high Platinum associations are coupled more often than random)
I think if you replace your teams just after the grouping and before the draw...
