I was talking with @rand about different bugs on chat, when i mentioned the defenders being slow in about 2/3 of the field and whether they plan to do anything about it...i got no response back for over 15 minutes, then i just left.

Their current priorities to work on starting next week are:

1) Offside bug (offsides that are not called, or called offsides that are not offsides)
2)Penalty kicks
3)"Massive offside tactics penalized" (and i dont really know what he means by this one)

this is what I mean: they are actively ignoring the list of ACTUAL bugs that has been painstakingly gathered by the @ and instead are focusing on a non-existent problem of "massive offside tactics"

The only thing that will make a difference is a mass protest.

I'm not sure what other people think about the slowed defenders, but slowing them down makes offside traps more effective in a strategy like mine where the defenders are up near the mid-field line when the ball is on the opponents half, and the other team then gets the ball, and easily passes the ball up, and past my defenders, who are slowly, practically crawling back to a further back defensive position, only for the other guys to get called for an offside, it just doesn't make sense why anyone thinks that would stop offside traps, but the stupid strikers might have been because of the stupid GKs, but in that case they should just have made GKs smarter. Does anyone else have any ideas or opinions about this? 26/02/2012 21:21

Umm it was meant to penalize the offside trap team should a player break through. But then the problem was... idk. I think the @s just like screwing with us at this point.

Also, WTF: http://uk.strikermanager.com/partido.php?id=5237342&accion=simul&turno=8750

Right so since you're technically my boss Cellog and I have to do what my boss tells me, where's my pitchfork and torch. 26/02/2012 23:32

slowing defenders did not affect the massive offside strategy because the offsides are still being called. It affected those who were using a high defensive line without a massive offside trap, because they were not relying on offside calls helping them much and now their defenders cant catch up with the opposing strikers.

I think offside is good for now
They should fix the called offside by opponent's pass or throw in

Although if they aren't listening to you and you're an @, not sure how much a bunch of angry managers is going to make them listen any more.

It is actually only a mob of angry managers that they will listen to. They listen to fiscals when we have uncovered a huge problem with cheating and whatnot. This makes sense, since that's ostensibly why we're fiscals.

It's sad how much that logic makes sense. They should have someone whose job is specifically to communicate back and forth with us, I thought that's why they made you @reb, @blue, and @Gunner @'s at first. 27/02/2012 01:52
