Look at flings last game...

I suggested to add a TV gap cap to the Box scheduler but it has fallen on deaf ears.

Probably my fault for only activating the one team - was hoping for a low TV match.

At least they both showed up.

Looks like my poor baby flings really have had some tough matches these last 3 games. All TV 2000+ chaos - crazy times:
https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=3935953 2190 vs 1100 Chaos vs Flings
https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=3936101 2310 vs 700 Chaos vs Flings
https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=3955700 2140 vs 670 Chaos vs Flings

If you mono-activate an old team, there is no limit as to who they will be matched with.

Thus, if you mono-activate an old team which is huge, there is no limit as to how small the old teams they match with will be.

Welcome to blackbox, enjoy your Rash, it may recur from time to time.

Good post. This kind of thing is what gives the box a bad name, unfortunately.

Posted by koadah on 2018-01-04 14:25:44

You mean the scheduling rules?

Posted by JellyBelly on 2018-01-04 17:00:24

Not sure if you were referring to me, koadah, but I'm talking about people who monoactivate the same team over and over during times where there is a small player pool.

Posted by koadah on 2018-01-05 11:26:10

You could add an (optional?) 550k TV gap limit. You could extend rookie protection to 40 games or whatever it is the Trophy requires.

I am unlikely to play much Black Box. But if I did, I would only activate one or two teams. They would be old teams with mid/high TV.
Personally, I am not interested in grinding a load of low TV teams. If I wanted to create a new team, I'd create it in Secret League. ;)

Chaos start with no skills and take time to build. Once built, people are going to ride them.

Christer could force multiple activation but chooses not to. It is his choice.

That's how it worked out. Two extreme monoactivators. I don't hear either of them complaining. Just outrage from the sidelines.

Posted by koadah on 2018-01-05 13:21:06

The flings were caught in a trap that was set for min/maxing zons & pact.

Though with such low TV, if they were not outside rookie protection they would probably not get any games at all.

Posted by MattDakka on 2018-01-05 14:46:32

I suggest 450 or 500 as TV gap cap.

Posted by Nextflux on 2018-01-06 14:10:46

I want a lesser gap for lower tv teams, all under 2000 the limit should be 300 max gap, over 2000 maybe some more to get thouse high tv teams pitted vs each other IF they appear.
This is just picking in blackbox, not seeing it as picking means your blind!
at under 1800 tv, it should maybe even be lower than 300, maybe 200.
who cares if you can only field morg on high tv teams? you will loose anyway, and the whole game is just for the other "picker" to have fun by himself.
