2) Apparently the scheduling has been changed a bit to account for differing timezones, I don't know by how much. They'll never make everyone, least of all you, happy - however they do it. The only way would be to only have people from similar timezones in competition together. I don't think the majority of players want that

3) Well done, this isn't real life. So we get boosters to help us fix players. I really don't get your point here

4) Yes. Stuff in this game is designed to encourage players to spend money. Shock horror

1000s of games a day, many players with conflcting timezones. You think it's so easy to code, design a game and make some money
Mate, I cant always sound like a sane, thoughtful person. I have to let the crazy in sometimes. Nordeus "inspires" me.

I realize the timezone implications and yes, not everyone is going to be happy, but this is not about making people happy...this is a game! (Think about that one for a min). Timezones deal with hours. I am talking about 30 mins, like you said. Most people would stop complaining if they had more than 2-3 mins to make changes between games. Celine Dion and Lady Gaga dont rush this fast to change outfits between SONGS! Seriously!

you have acknowledged it is just a simple line(s) of code that they could introduce that would check/modify a game-time and make sure it was a minimum 30 mins between games.

My point about the "real life" aspect is that people are trying to say that IRL you have a few days in between league games and they translate into a few hours between games. True. But not necessary. 30 mins to an hour is sufficient between games.

of course, we all know this, but there is a difference in Nordeus FORCING managers to spend tokens and NORDEUS "encouraging" mangers to spend tokens. If you want to have a fair game against an opponent, you want to be well rested and moraled, picking your formation, changing players to suit the formation etc... Nordeus's constant scheduling brainfarts force managers to move the gametime or risk losing an important game because of lack of condition or not enough time to change formations or heal players etc. Encouraging players would be giving them 30 mins instead of 3. I would rather have 30 mins between games rather than 3 minutes, but I would rather have 3 HOURS than 30 mins.

Simon, I like you. Really. Several people on here make me think about this game. Not to the point where I dream about it, but to think about what the hell i am going to say to the devs when I get the chance next time they open it up for questions from the public.
it makes me mad to think that a game company(LOL) just sucks the money from people and pretends to care. Lame excuses. Game engines issues/results, server issues. It all adds up at the end of the day. But I have a respect for you, regardless of your team, and I hope that it is returned...BUT I dont have this same respect for Nordeus and its voice. Not one reply to my polite requests for formal answers on easy questions. Sure they can take all they time they want, but many people want to know the answers. Until then there are things we will disagree on. lets just leave it at that.
