That’s a fair point. I know I messaged Steve because I saw a questionable sharp dollar loss in my last update, but really we’ve swallowed worse bugs than this. I wouldn’t cry in my Cheerios if nothing was done to address the lost $ (tho I would appreciate a fix to make sure it doesn’t continue to happen)

Thx Steve

Freddy, losing $8 million might not be a big deal for you, but I'm sure it would be for some. I know it would be for me. Getting hit with an unforeseen major loss like that is substantial. That's more than 20% of my cash immediately stolen away. I imagine it's even worse than that for many.

I think simply skipping an economic period makes the most sense, assuming that is a relatively easy task.

Haha I doubt many lost 8m like you.
Again, I have no problem if some "uber high payroll" teams get punished. I'm still on the side of easiest solution for the developer of the free game.
If that ruins your franchise so be it!

Again, you're overlooking the teams that will be impacted the most--lower teams with less money. I would think most are losing at least $5 million. A team struggling on the lower half of the ladder could nearly be wiped out. There's a big difference between not managing your money and the bank losing your uninsured funds.

Certainly something should be done for those affected by this bug.

However, I don't think every team was impacted by this. I know that it didn't affect my team down here in Div VI for example.

That whole thing is pretty funny. You started by twisting what I said and the facts. That apparently wasn't enough because you then started making things up. And just kept on going.

Thankfully, Steve will resolve it however he wishes. He is always reasonable and does his best. I appreciate that.

For me, the bug takes less than 10% out of my reserves, and almost all of my high-paid veterans will be off the books by the end of this season, so it really doesn't matter to me, as long as it happens only once.
But seriously, imagine someone who recently took over a struggling team, is still learning the game and finds himself bankrupt because of a server bug. How much fun would that be, and how many of you would feel like continuing to play after that?
So by all means, yes, keep it simple, maybe give a 5 million premium on tv revenues to all teams or so, but doing nothing is simply no an option.

Ya. Was a nice solution. Thanks.

There is still a discrepancy between the balance and the position of the line on the Balance vs. Time graph (at least for me).

Not sure if this will correct itself with the season flip, or if this is something that could be fixed fairly easily.
