Ok everyone, I know this is a sore subject for a few, but its worth mentioning.

Before you post, try the Search function. You'll be amazed at what the Search Engine is able to find when you use it.

For Example:

I've noticied that in my Solo League in V6, the attendance of the teams were way down in comparisons to the previous season which was played in V5. I thought this was a bug and I thought something was wrong with V6. I checked my settings and saw that everything seemed normal. I did notice that the higher the team Loyalty, the better the attendance was for that team. Basically, I didn't see very many Sell outs like I had in V5.

Anyways, I decided to look on the front page of the V6 Forum. I didn't see a "heated" thread regarding Attendance listed. I went to the Search Engine, typed in Attendance and the 3rd Thread listed was this:

http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...ght=Attendance

Inside this thread, I found my answer. Markus had changed the game's calculation of attendance in V6 but had offset the change with the Game's handling of the TV Contracts.

In the end, I prevented another Thread being posted on something that had already been answered simply by doing a search.

My words of wisdom for everybody including the Veterans like me:

Search before posting. You'll be amazed at what the Search Engine comes up with!
