    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.

    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???

    I think is the timing they find the loophole there or otherwise how did they do it. Very smart people.

    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.

    You can't leave or join an association when the draw has already been made

    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...

    Maybe they are getting some kind of "unexperienced" draw in next week? I dunno maybe the engine mating similar groups together?

    (don't take it seriously i'm just thinking "loudly")
    I agree with your thoughts. Quality of asso, division, and how many individual points every team won (experience). I noticed with my asso that if we are winning easily 36:0 it means that next oppo asso won't be easy to defeat.

    i know there are alot of that going on McDaniel....... but i dont think this is the case.......the teams on this groups look like costume made for FA games....not for regualr tournements as that kind of games promoted in those FB groups
