Thinking of MOTSing

[Richards]

Hmm, I'm tempted to MOTS. I'm a newbie, so haven't yet played either a PIC or MOTS match.

My series looks like this: (vi.913) # is points.

1. lecavians 7 (6 goals 2 against)
2. FC Rosslyn 6
3. Los Aromos F.C. 6
4. Greenlight Superior 4 (9 goals 6 against)
5. Diesel Guys 4
6. Tao Kicks 3
7. Big Bang for your B 3
8. Cauthu FC 1


I play lecavians. I am Greenlight Superior FC. I am at home. I think I can beat them on Normal, but I would really like to take this match. Next week I play Tao Kicks, who are also new and seem to be a slow learner, from looking at match reports and transfer list. I could be wrong!!! I did NOT pic last week. I am thinking of MOTSing to make sure I get the win, and PICing next week and play for a low scorer or a draw.

How exactly can I expect MOTsing to affect my team spirit and performance? It is calm right now.

In the big picture, I'm not sure I can push for promotion, as I picked up the team after the season started, but this would be a nice phychological win I guess, against the "current" leader even though it's a tight pack.

Recommendations. My orders now are on "normal" but I'm tempted to change them before the deadline.

What are their ratings from their last league match? Also what are yours?

MOTsing it I believe divides Team spirit by 2.

MotS will basically halve your Team Spirit [rounded down, apparently]. Since your team is at 'calm' right now, it would go down to 'furious'. There's a list of the moods in the sticky'ed FAQ thread.

I'm, uhhh, too chicken to mess around with MotS and PIC too much. Hee hee. :)

How about PIC'ing -- I assuming it does not double TS?

no PIC raises TS by 2, but then it usually drops 1 before next match
so atleast for me it only went up 1.

this 'nasty' coach of mine is killing me in TS.

Well I guess at this point weighing the info, I don't deem the match important enought to MOTS, esp since I think I have a good chance of winning outright, unless they MOTS or something ;)

Thanks for the posts

Time to shell out for a clown or at least a semi-clown? :)
