I have a young (2 games) Goblin Team that has a couple MNGs, along with a death last game, that has the TV of the team sitting at a meager 860.

I'm guessing this is gonna make it tough to draw a game via the scheduler... But just how tough?

Let's put the over/under at say 10.5 draws. I'll also be activating other teams along with the gobbos, because I'll want to get a game, but what is your guess for how many draws it will take for the team to get paired?

Side note: What's the TV range the scheduler would allow this team to get paired with? +/- 110? I looked at the scheduler algorithm briefly, but couldn't easily figure it out.

I think the blackbox algorithm for fewer than 3 games played is +/- 10% of your tv.

I've got a rookie (1 game played) vamp team with a mng vamp so 870tv. Wonder which of us gets a game first Smile

So what y'all think... There's gonna have to be a less than or equal to 950TV team in the pool for the draw? My money is on the over for 10.5 draws. May have to finesse and coordinate a draw if it gets to it, instead of goin organically.

Activating other teams at the same time means that even if a compatible team for your goblins is in the draw they still might not get a game if another of your teams has a higher score from the scheduling. So I picked over.

Best way to get a team back on track is by entering a brawl.

I activated flings at 890 tv for about a year (though activating other teams as well) before they drew. I'm sure if you mentioned it, there are a number of us with similar teams that can also activate at very low tv.

My only bad experience playing stunties below 800 tv was an all linebeard team, which wasn't conducive to rebuilding, for some reason.

Edit: Good call about signing up for a Brawl. I prefer my stunties get inducements for the chef & bribes.
