Re: KVBL 3.0 Season 12 Discussion (Atlanta Hawks - 2027 Champions)
The purpose of a lottery is to prevent tanking, if there is a rule in place to prevent tanking what is the point of a lottery?.

Because people were getting an "unfair" advantage by benching elite players in order to take advantage of the system and getting high picks with teams that should have been already.

Re: KVBL 3.0 Season 12 Discussion (Atlanta Hawks - 2027 Champions)
Are you really trying to compare changing the in-game rules to getting rid of something that no longer has a real purpose other than being a fun little thing to do at the end of the season. There is no reason a team that is forced to play their best lineup and ends up with the worst record should not get the #1 pick, and a team that barely missed the playoffs should have a shot a the best player in the draft.

No, I am not comparing that to the in game rules. I'm just saying teams can still find ways to tank.

Re: KVBL 3.0 Season 12 Discussion (Atlanta Hawks - 2027 Champions)
Tanking has been normalized back to where it should be. This is more realistic and since the lottery is a real life thing, it makes sense to keep the lottery.

Re: KVBL 3.0 Season 12 Discussion (Atlanta Hawks - 2027 Champions)
I'm all for anything goes...but the rules we have say that you have to try to win.
Prince nailed the other reason...that it actually happens.

Re: KVBL 3.0 Season 12 Discussion (Atlanta Hawks - 2027 Champions)
Can we all pause and imagine a league in where Caramel Love and Xerxes are on the same team?
