Disappearing playoff revenue

sox9418 · 09-16-2002, 10:59 PM

Hello -

We've just completed the first round of the playoffs in a 24 team fictional league using the Modern Era. One of the teams that advanced (in 4 games) has actually been losing playoff revenue. We didn't know it at the time, but restoring the league over the last 4 games, he's had 600K, 500K, 104K, and now $0 listed for playoff revenue. One playoff team finished the first round with only 600K, while the rest of the teams, even the ones that lost, are above $1M.

System is Windows XP, 1Ghz processor, 300 MB RAM, 20GB free disk. This is the first season with the team under OOTP4 - the league was an OOTP3 league for 2 years.

The latest league file is located here:

I can be emailed here

Is there any way to edit current playoff revenue? I know you could with Pierre's OOTP3 editor, but don't think you can in version 4.

Thanks!

Sorry I can't offer any idea's on what happened here. I DLed your league, studied it, and found all the settings were fine. I will confirm that you indeed have teams that have played home games in the playoffs and have zero playoff revenue (just in case anyone is doubting you

). I have never noticed this before, but I also have never looked for this before. Hopefully someone who has seen this before will respond.

Steve, Markus, anyone?

Can someone take a look at this for me, or offer a workaround? We're getting closer to the end of the playoffs.

Thanks

I don't have any ideas on this one but it has been noted.

we simmed out our playoffs and proceeded to 2006 - 2 teams had $0 playoff revenue. one played in 3 games (hosted 2), one played in 5 games (hosted 3)

Is there any consideration to having the Front Office editor edit the current season's information? This would at least help alleviate the problem if it does pop up.

I will bring this to Markus' attention for the update, hopefully it is a simple fix.

Bumping this back up. It still exists in OOTP5 as well. Looks like Markus never got to this one.

Here is a discussion thread where several online leagues have seen this.

Doing my part to help

Any news whether Markus will get to this in the final update? It's a real annoying bug, probably simple fix.
