Why am I on the road for a cup game ?

[Jets80]

Why am I traveling to a Div VI bot team's 700 seat place? What determins where the cup games are held ?

Lower seeds get home games I believe.

The higher rated team is the away team.

So how do they divide up the money?

[daedalus]

Probably half, as per the Rules page.

2/3's home 1/3 away.

[Doug5984]

Home team gets 2/3's of the gate and the away team gets 1/3...I am pretty sure this is how it is, but I am not 100% positive.

[Doug5984]

Damn- I am slow today...beat twice in 1 thread.

[Jets80]

So, some chump bot team gets 2/3 the money. I come in and kick their ass 9-0 and take 1/3...yea, that sounds fair.

That's exactly how Apoc will feel when he plays you in a few weeks.

on the road again in rd. 2

and I beat him:)

The team that finished one spot below me in series play has to go up against another D5 active team. What a lucky break.

[Nyarlahotep]

I at least got an active dVI team. Their slightly enlarged stadium should bring in a little extra cash next week.

I'm on the road next week against an active D.V team... and they've won 10 in a row... unfortunately they are still in a 7000 seat arena, so no money there.

On closer inspection, I can't see how they've won 10 straight... they look very, very beatable to me. I'll probably PIC again. They beat their bot opponent yesterday by a score of 5-1. Hell, if the bot can score on them, they must be soft. ;)
