You mean people still don't know that boosting by this point has no effect on your final level?

I'm not an idiot and I'll assume you aren't either but that's not the point I was making. CM was scared they would lose so they took the easy way out.

Trust me. There was no ninja boost. BBird and Lynrnd know what they're doing and the plan was the same from day 40 last season. I'm not picking on you here, but it amazes me that people still gripe about this every season. It's the way PW dot ball is played if you are trying to win it all -- you get to this point and you boost.

I actually disagree, the earlier you boost the worse off you are, by gaining those 3 levels now I have started putting SP in to stats I was previously training.

The later you wait to boost/assign sps the better your team will be (Assuming you are taking advantage of it training wise).

I know some people have made "perfect" situations that revolve around pee-wee dots that allow for maximization of training, but there are much better ways of doing it in regard to not caring about regular season outcome.

I think boosting early, or even really bothering to try to win at all in Silver is pretty pointless.

Also, there is a way to be level 14 for the conference championship with several players (I saw a few last season) and probably your whole team with some extensive energy settings and what not, that is if you wait until that game to boost.

A silver team boosting mid season has and always will be in my book:

Cowardly.

This is because you don't know how our training plan works. I'm not complaining here but I don't think Mike was trying to be disrespectful to anyone so no need to start another quarrel here.

First of all, we respect the midgets. They have been an elite team since the birth of PW and this was one match we were looking forward to. You guys boosted the ST units players first, and then later boosted rest of the players. So that is the reason why mike thought you guys ninja boosted.

Again, I'm not complaining here. I'm not a fan of the early boosting as well but it is part of the game and a lot of the teams are doing it because they were ninja boosted before. So it's totally understandable, especially in gold league where everyone does it and it's something you have to consider to stay alive. That's why we didn't say a word when piranhas ninja boosted us in gold league.

However, I have a different opinion in silver league. You said it has no affect on the final level but that is not entirely true.

Based on the virtual builder, if you boost on day 31/32 there is a good chance you can get couple of lvl 14 players by the league championship. If not you can still opt not to boost for the first playoff game since you'll likely face a cup cake opponent in the first round. This would guarantee at least couple of lvl 14 players. This is what I do not understand. Midgets are good enough to compete with any teams in PW without the boost advantage. Why boost now and lose the opportunity to reach lvl14? Also it looks like none of the remaining teams in this tournament was planning to boost. I know flumps a lot weren't originally planning to boost.

Again if this was planned from the get go, I respect your decision but I think it would have been better if we all decided not to boost. I for one wouldn't want to see the midgets lose in the league championship because of lvl disadvantage. There isn't a team that deserves to be in gold more than the midgets in silver. I'm just saying, this could have been a win-win situation for all of us and not give our potential opponent any edge come playoff time.

Guys, we are not arguing about ninja boosts in this thread. It is really just a thread for updates and results posting. The fact is, Crib Midgets had the right to boost and while I don't know exactly when it happened, that isn't important. They won the game fair and square.

Raph, I just checked the XP history for my guys last season, and they didn't hit 11 (without boosting) until day 39.

So, you could be 14 for the LCG, but only if you're in a joke conference where you can afford to wait.

edit: wasn't making sense
edit2: put 40 instead of 14 lolwat

I have had players hit level 11 as early as day 36. (Also just checked the XP history for some guys I knew got a lot of playing time.

If by having a 3 level advantage and an equipment advantage as well is fair then yeah you would be correct.

I tried to be a gentleman about it......Not personal, just business. I think I explained this in my PM to you...Trust me Mike...Crib may be scared of a few teams out there but yours isnt one of them. (no disrespect). This isnt our first tournament and the "ninja boost" you speak of has been done to us in past seasons. I'll be honest that is why we didnt enter this tourney in the last 2 seasons because a team would come in and boost before playing us....This game, that you scheduled, just happened to hit on the day before boost day for us.
Coming in here and complaining about it doesn't build respect for you as a team owner just as this post probably isnt helping me gain respect either. Boosting in this tourney is commonplace and I can tell you take pride in your team and probably have put a lot of time and effort into it. Losing sucks and trust me I take it a lot worse than you.

When entering a tournament, remember boosting can happen at any given time unless specified in the rules. If that pisses you off, dont join the tournament...You have a choice to boost and a choice to participate.

HHM always use to boost at any given time if we needed to win a tough game, or if there was a trophy on the line and we just wanted to make sure.

Boosting is just another strategic part of tournament play (IMO).

Lmao... Get over it sige you lost and it's done with... people boost all the time vs teams and your team (No disrespect intended) is not one of the feared teams. I am sure the well known Crib Midgets weren't like oh shit we play Mike's team (Don't even know your team name lol) we gotta boost! Your team lost to a team that was going to boost anyway...and if you can't get that through your mind I will throw some facts in there. I am a part of the Wildcats (The team Crib actually boosted for) and we had boosted our dots also so Crib was in the right to boost when they wanted for that league game. End of story you lost come back next season.
