When it comes to Tour Bidding, there's these "rating points" which we have allocated to us. How does the accumulation of those work?

Is it this post?

If it's not this post then I don't know where it exists.

How am I supposed to know if having 24 of these rating points is a lot or not if there's no explanation on them anywhere?

Hi Crowfan,

Player overall summary is different in the Orders page vs the squad page. I have a player who has reliable overall summary in Youth squad page, but capable in the orders page. Any insights on this?

Just got knocked out of the MKMC as the opposition were the higher cup seed (match was tied). We would have won on boundary count-back. As a NZer this is hard to take. 😂

Hi Everyone,

Is it just me or is there a bunch of plain unlucky players in our game?

I've recently been working my way up the lower divisions and my captain just doesn't seem to ever have a good run of form.
Could it be because he is my Captain? I am always careful to provide him rest so he doesn't become overly fatigued.
His average is well below his abilities considering he has played a few seasons in lower grades and it has only really peaked past 40 on two occasions.

Fatigue and Form come into the calculation for orders I believe.

Hi crowfan,

What are the best bowling figures for a player in an international match(Non Friendlies) so far?

no and i was saying to someone there is a club with dbl del and doing ok but is so far in dent they will never get out of it
In the early days your academy spend would be zeroed if you were in debt
We will investigate it further in the near future
And they say home-grown clubs are at a disadvantage. With a maxed academy and no need for cash a negative balance means nothing.
Maybe a club in prolonged debt could have a form penalty applied to the players, or should the academy be downgraded automatically?
What's everyone's thoughts on that?

A few questions regarding the financial changes, which I did not see answered elsewhere. Apologies in advance if those answers do exist elsewhere.

1. For sponsorship changes, it reads "If you play a weaker side and rate below the minimum ratings for the division but still win or tie the game then you are deemed to be competitive and will receive the payment for being so." If I rate below minimum ratings but win, and am playing a stronger side, will not get sponsorship for that week? How is "strong side" calculated -- based on ratings? Standings in the league table?

2. As above, if I play a weaker side and win, I get sponsorship for that week, even if I fall below minimum team ratings. Does that change if the team I beat is a bot team?

3. Just above the chart showing new minimum team ratings, it reads "the current numbers being suggested are..." Are these numbers now final?

4. I don't understand what the second column is showing in the chart that shows new academy level upkeep costs. If there is just one academy, what does the column titles "Ttl of 2 academies" show?
