within the +/- 15 TS restrictions....and, since you got a handicap with the 18TS game, it falls within the 15TS restriction too...
oh, and the 19 TS game was a ranked matchup 
no problem..system works as programmed

Suitability score is not totally driven by TS. It also takes BR/BBR and racial factors into account.
Btw, I checked your last 10 [B] matchups and found the following TS differences/handicaps:
-5/0 (vs Krispe)
-6/0
-19/2
-2/0
-15/1
-18/2
2/0
-14/2
-10/1
4/0 (vs Blackwidow)
for an average of -8.3TS and +0.8 handicaps. |

as I said, the scheduler currently takes BR (coach rating), BBR (bashiness) and racial factors into account when calculating the suitability of a match. Your match was probably influenced by some of these factors. BR and BBR are not currently published. |

No, since bashing also counts to give you tougher match-ups.
What you really need is a team that neither wins nor bashes.
(I recommend Pro Elves. ) |

Flix, you are at 32/8/6 in overall in Blackbox.
If there was no TS cap, the system would give you more and more tougher matchups until your results stabilize around 50%.
So basically, you will run at TS disadventage often, unless you get an opponent of the same strength as you (so the best BB coaches) |

TS disadvantage can be considered a badge of pride in the Box.  If it happens consistently it means you're a strong coach. |

That's my main practical objection to the BR weighing. Even if you're a good coach, getting -10 to -15 TS matches consistently will get old really fast, even if you manage to keep your wins at 50%. This will drive great coaches away from the division, something that surely can't be intended.
I strongly recommend Christer to design the final version to schedule on (race-weighed) TS only. |

Not likely, since those coaches with a higher BR will most likely be counterbalanced by more coaches with low BR. |

I think there's very few cases of consistent -10 to -15TS matches. Almost all reported cases of TS-disadvantage I've looked at have averaged out to less than 5TS.
The 50% win philosophy has been effectively discarded by the hard cap of 15TS, and many strong coaches are able to maintain a high winning percentage. For example, using the reported numbers, Flix won 78% of his games. Is [B] totally not fun if you win 78% instead of say 90%? |
