Just noticed this in the Announcements bit (posted at 20:09CET):
We have done a slight change to the rules which may affect some Rookie managers during the next season reset.
Every manager who scored more than 50 points during the season and doesn't promote from Rookie (by finishing the season in negative), will start next season with a financial penalty worth $200.000 for every point he scored above 50 points in the previous season. The amount will be deducted from the starting balance for the new season (after the season reset). This rule will apply effective immediately.
I don't really see why this has been added myself, but what do you guys think of it?

Excellent idea! That makes more difficult to be in rookie from season to another, win every race. I'd like call it Roca rule

Two words ... Jan Roca.
This stops the creation of 'Super Rookies', those that win their groups over and over and over and finishing in negative at the end of the season.
It's a very good idea.

just another challenge. try to get 170pts then try to do it the season after with less starting money
|

It's a fair penalty, punish those who should go up but cheat the system to change that.
Not that it should matter surely if the managers from the season before have set themselves up ready to promote that time out, but hey will be fun to see the outcome and if groups above get tighter to survive
I wonder how Jan will get on with the rule
I would add a note that the downside is if that so many managers try to promote, and groups get tight, and you have more managers with 50+ points, but no space to promote outside the top 4, it will probably cause some strain.
It's a great plan, but maybe should be tweaked to only punish those in the top 4 who go negative

It was not cheating, because there was no rule in place ;-)

It will be so easy to get around this, I don't know why they bothered...
It only affects people who want to win, but not promote.
Surely if I only care to improve driver, the rule just means I will probably tank races towards the end to stay below 50 points. It removes the fun of competing and training a driver, which is sad to me, but not something I would actually cry over.

I'll answer both polls considering.
I love the idea first and foremost.
Secondly, I don't think the penalty isn't harsh enough. It's there primarily to abolish those guys who spend their whole careers in rookie. And destroying rookie by 50-80 points from 2nd place. scoring 100pts is 10mil. And that is a massive hit for someone who is training a driver for their proper push.

I'd still say that it's not harsh enough, BUT (!!!) I think 50 points is too low. There are like 15 managers max racing at all, so it's easy to collect 50 points not knowing what you are doing.
So I would raise it to maybe to 75 points ? And then raise the fine per point also.

Joan will score 170 points which is a penalty of 24M.
Which will be a starting budget of 11M.
Jensen might have a chance now :D

I am against the penalty. In Rookie category, there are many penalties to veteran players (except the 5 millions at the beginning). You cannot build your promotion gradually.
This is because the management wants to foster the entrance of new players into the game for business reasons and the way to motivate them is to equal them (except for the aforementioned 5 millions) to the veterans.
There are more "newbies" than "veteran good rookies" so it is better to motivate the first ones to stay and play.
I say this because in each Rookie category there are about ten seasoned rookies, ten acceptable rookies who find their way out, and twenty that are totally parachuters.

Imho there should also be one rookie group dedicated to the "resetting managers". Unlucky reset, do reset everything beside the knowledge of the managers and that's a bit unfair to the "real" rookies.

Joan Centellas will like this.
But well, Joan might still stay in Rookie, but he's in a bad mood, he doesn't have that much money ATM...
He's in a really bad mood.
I think that he may quit GPRO soon

(170 - 50) x 200000 = 24 million

Not that difficult to manage money in Rookie. You just need to start learning how to do it.
Quote ( Martin Pino @ September 23rd 2013,20:31:23 ) You cannot build your promotion gradually.
Do you really need to build your promotion with more than 50 points per non-promotion season?
