Please read this first

The Manual says "There is a Homefield advantage added to all games except Friendlies, Friendly Cup games, Relegation games and regular Bowls like the Super Bowl. There is a good chance that the team playing at home gets a 1% advantage to all skills except Physical Condition and Intelligence."

Unfortunately, the homefield avantage (in the CofC) seems to be way too much (check the stats below) :-

Season 2:- Home wins - 13 , Away wins - 2

Season 3:- Home wins - 15 , Away wins - 0

Season 4:- Home wins - 11 , Away wins - 1

or put it like this ..... in most cup competitions, you think to yourself "I hope that I don't get a v.good team here or I will be out" ........ in the CofC , you think to yourself "I hope that I don't get an away venue or I will be out".

It shouldn't be like this, it's making the CofC into a Lottery.

Suggestion :- Reduce the homefield avantage. Instead of it being 1%, change it to 0.5% .

Or just take it out of the CofC completely. A true champion should be able to win with no advantage. Especially since there is no way to earn home-field advantage, unlike the league playoffs.

Regular Bowls means official Bowls, and the COC is an official Bowl! There is no home advantage...

Are you sure ?

92.8% of CofC games have been won by the home team and you're telling us that there is no homefield advantage ?

p.s. ...... and some people say that the Germans have no sense of humour
