If i subbed out my team with cheap Gold's ($1-2K each) is that tanking? i mean i'm not going iron or bronze's but i think it would really ,make people mad
I faced the same question myself a week or two back. I had insane luck and made Diamond pretty quickly but, once there, stagnated. I think three seasons I finished as the last team not relegated, wasn't making any PP, and couldn't earn much in the way of PP (being stuck at home with a three year old possessing boundless energy saps time and energy!). Decided to do a rebuild, sold off a lot of underperformers and played golds the last two months. Now I'm finding ways to use the PP wisely to become more competitive while building a roster that isn't a carbon copy of every other roster out there in the mid-levels.

I certainly didn't view this as tanking, as I didn't just bench my higher players and play the scrubs, I set myself a challenge of rebuilding the team. Couldn't bring those (underperforming) @#$*#^#$%s back if I wanted to anyway! Doesn't help that this is my first go-round at PT, but it's certainly a lot more enjoyable now that I've decided on this approach. When I win, it feels great. When I lose, I shrug and wonder how much fun people are having running out rosters that differ from other rosters by a card or two.
