Subject: Reporting bugs

Wait, the stronger team lost the match. Its 122:118 for strength 24.

Penalties have decided the match, of course. As the vlady said, it is not a good way to play with only 5 players. I think there is no bug or something like that.
5 players did not win this match, as you said in the first post.
And if you are stonger than your opponent, you probably canT win with only 5 players - your second post.

do you also get a penalty if player with 4 fouls plays, but you have more than 5 players in your squad?

not as long as you have someone on the bench who can replace a player who fouls out.

No, check the summary of the 4th quarter, when he have already all his players with 4 fouls.

See the stadistics, his field goals, his opponets field goals etc.
Its the same that the 1st quarter, only that he dont have PF, lol.

yeah, but that's just one example. you need to analyze more games.

I have two questions, but only one is answered, anyway, thanks

The same

My average of field goals from 1st to 3rd is 16.33 and the last game i had 18. My opponent is 15,66 and he had 17.

I dont see a CLEARLY ADVANTAGE. Come on, my players played 40 minutes!!!!
We had the same strong.

I think that if you dont have any substitue to enter if a player get 5 PF, you instantly lose the game. Is more fair.

i had suggested before to just follow rules used in other leagues. if team cant place another player, anytime a player with 5 fouls commit a foul the team goes to the FT for one shot as a technical foul.

at PPM players commit too many fouls so it is actually good to play 5 players only: that limit the amount of fouls to 20 at most.

when playing more than 5, my center will often be in foul trouble already in the first quarter and disqualified in the 2nd

at this current model, at the moment it is better to play with less players. once a team can have a solid bench at the same or close quality of the starters than it wont.

there are other benefits of playing 5 players only

i think ppm should
1. implement the technical FT
2. Eliminate this thing of playing less hard when in foul trouble. should be just a bit less harder but not too less hard.
3. having players playing 32-36mpg as ideal so rotation could be 7-9 players only as it usually is in basketball. other players (3rd line) should only play when lead is at some level, just like it happens, at the last minutes: not the 2nd line but the 3rd should play those minutes.

Totally agree with that.
The main problem is that PPM basketball engine gives too many fouls. Saw games with 38 fouls for a team!!!
Playing with 5 players stops this counter at 20, giving less free throws to opponents...

... and allegedly allowing more easy throws instead

player field but can't play (for more than 10 days), try every means, please check player status

Question 5 players:

This is the second match in season, how is this possible?

In my play-off:

basketball.powerplaymanag...

Lost against 5 players.

In last match:

basketball.powerplaymanag...

I win at 40:00, but Expert's estimate: win 43%.

In my opinion it's no possible to lost this matchs with a team with only 5 players.

Another advantage with 5 players is:
All Prizes money for player stats are easy to win because players play 40 minutes....

Team rating 30/31 vs 26.

I cant see any problem here. If a team plays with only 5 members, it doesnt mean automatically they will lose.

Yes, its punished. If it wouldnt, you'd lost by 20-30 points due to team quality. But you just lost by few point(s).

The rating is 30/31 because the team plays with only 5 players!!!
This is the problem!!

Lost by few points is always lost.
Where is the punishment?

I know. But if he'd had 30/31 team rating with 10 players, he'd won by 20-30 points (not including tactics now).

But, he had 31 TR with only 5 players. So, he could barely to win, instead of destroying you. I can see the punishment.
