Should I PIC?

AccardoOutfit29 · 04-25-2003, 08:07 PM

I just switched coaches so the TS is at content right now. The team I am playing has yet to score a goal in league play and seems pretty bad. So if I PIC it will I still get a pretty dominating win?

Here's my last game ratings

Midfield: poor
Right Side Defence: solid
Central Defence: passable
Left Side Defence: passable

Vs a disastrous midfield? PIC em.

The_herd · 04-25-2003, 10:05 PM

I would PICem. How is your opponent next week?

AccardoOutfit29 · 04-25-2003, 10:11 PM

Next week I play the 7th place team who have yet to score a goal either.

Here is the next week opponent's rating.

I figure I will PIC them as well since I then play the #5, and #2 teams respectively in the two weeks following.

The_herd · 04-25-2003, 10:25 PM

Yeah, PIC these next 2, to set yourself up for the #5 and #2 teams. Also, if I had an easy match after the #2, I would play the #5 normal, MOTS the #2, then PIC the match after that to get your TS back up.

PIC'em!!

sterlingice · 04-26-2003, 12:57 AM

I think PIC is safe as long as both of you play the same teams as those ratings come from.

What's a PIC?

AccardoOutfit29 · 04-26-2003, 05:45 PM

Playing it Cool. It increases team spirit but it causes your team to play at a more reserved level.

DukeRulesMAB · 04-27-2003, 08:01 PM

OK, new PIC scenario, except the opposite way.

I play the top team in my league next week. Here are the ratings from this week's games

Us:
Frankfort United

Midfield: poor
Right Side Defence: inadequate
Central Defence: inadequate
Left Side Defence: inadequate
Right Side Attack: passable
Central Attack: inadequate
Left Side Attack: passable

Them:

dbob

Midfield: inadequate
Right Side Defence: weak
Central Defence: passable
Left Side Defence: passable
Right Side Attack: inadequate
Central Attack: passable
Left Side Attack: passable

Beyond that gulf, my best midfielder is out with two yellows, my second best midfielder is "bruised but training", and one of my defenders is out a week. This doesn't feel winable to me; is it worthwhile to just throw in the towel and get the TS boost, or should I go for it nonetheless?

Figure I'll just bump this up. I'm playing the 7th place team in my series on Sunday and they have yet to score a goal this season. I was thinking I would probably be safe PICing, but my TS is good enough so I think I might just play normally to make sure I get the win. What's everyone else's opinion?

Here's my ratings from last week while PICing the game.
