Hi Made,
My mission, this week is simple, to try to catch you with your 'pants down'. Lol. May restrict you to just to 30pts!
Hi KotJ,
when I play friendlies, I try to ensure that teams are not less than 10% energy than me. The early games against you, I probably had a 5-10% advantage. If you look at my schedule, at that time, I played other 'Rugga Mugga's', my energy was a lot lower than theirs. Btw I have stopped ffing around, what you see is what you get, apart from minor alterations.
The games I have played this evening, all were equal energies, hence the different results (from the morning). I have been examining one strat (not att/def spacing, they have been the same throughout). I noticed the games against you, normal service has been resumed, lol. I have currently lvl 1 shop stuff, across the board. One game against 'Ooligan (I think without looking) I lost heavily, slightly changed the one strat and there was like a 50 pt swing immediately.
I haven't noticed a difference in friendlies. although some are skewed. Maybe someone has mentioned this before, I haven't seen it.
When you play a higher level team in a friendly, you get a bonus something akin to MB. This doesn't apply to a competitive game (ie GC), then there is about a 20pt swing to teams 10 levels higher. I wish this was sorted, it's frustrating!
You may know this already, if not, it's something I have tested frequently in Rugby and Football (5 lvls). (Same game engine)
Cheers......
ps. There is randomness in the game, especially with closely matched teams. If you can remember the cup-tie we played, I had kick-off, the ball (randomly) went out, I won the line-out and gained the advantage. If your no1 had caught the ball, it would have been a different result.

Thanks for the response.
I actually didn t know that you get some sort of bonus when you play against a higher level team in friendlies. Interesting. I will definitely do some tests.
Agree, we have always seen some sort of randomness (lineouts having obviously a huge impact on the outcome of the game).
I just heard many high level players complaining in the last few days on this topic.. so I was curious to know if you have seen any difference when playing against me. I haven t launched a friendly for couple of days, so I am not able to notice any difference... I was just surprised to see the huge swing in points from one game to the other.
Looking forward to seeing you in one of my tournaments
(For now, I get king of dollar/kwagga for the 3rd time in a row in my tournament)
