I understand his frustration. It was plain silly that someone bid on the first HC that I wanted and I had already placed a bid on because there were so many similar ones. Of course, there was also no reason to get upset about it either, so I just picked another one.

Since there aren't as many ACs out there, it didn't surprise me that one got "stolen" away from me because I couldn't be at my computer at the end of the bidding. But as others have posted here, there is still time and plenty to chose from out there. However, I will still be a little frustrated if I don't get a few of the ones that I have my eyes on.

From what i understand the coaches are an important part of the game, hence , valuable energy is required to ensure the right guy for the right job. There are a lot of coaches to filter and process due to the positional coaching situation, eg. WR coach etc.
So that means a lot of time on the site checking the transfer history making sure they have not been bid on etc. So it is frustrating. I guess if you want a successfull team here you may have to do exactly that! Im not here to lose every series but im not here to stay up at night either.
I love the game and it is just a game so i wont take it too seriously now.
However, i think the process should be different at first. If you bid on a a coach he should be yours and if your late you have to settle for whatever is left, or be assigned a coach.

It could have been this way, if you would have posted that idea earlier.

TuffGong:

1st: You can't leave! You're 20% of the Aussie delegation!

2nd: please take a look at how many coaches are out there. The game adds a boatload of new ones every day.

The fact that you have now waited a while is to your benefit, I think. Now you have a better selection and less competition. And since the coaches don't go active until the 9th, you've got plenty of time to learn from our many mistakes and put together a great coaching staff. Most managers have already filled their coaching staff, and unless you are bidding on CP 51-53 ACs, you'll find that basically whoever you bid on, you will get. Other than that one RB AC, I've gotten everyone I bid one because there are so many.

Someone overbid me on my first choice for a RB AC and I just went and got another one.

3rd: If you don't stick around who's going to kick me out of the Supercup next season?

Don't put to much pressure on me. Ok, I have a lot of success. But I lost an important game at the start of the season. My problem is, i have not so many opportunity to test my team against good teams.
I don't know if I'm ready to win the supercup or beat one of the other good teams.
