This has happened to me twice this season:

My settings changed from 'Fatigue Minutes' with all players at 'Fairly Fresh'   to 'Target Minutes' with all players at 'Mopup'.

 In 11 years with this game, I've never used 'Target Minutes' or 'Mopup'. 

With one of my teams, I caught it fairly early.  But my other team, which was 5-0 and ranked #8, lost 12 straight before I finally figured it out.   I'd blamed the losses on my #4 SOS and bad luck

(Smile) Quite funny and not funny at the same time. I often use target minutes when I promised starts to recruits. I don't want my freshmen to play more than eight minutes. When you play press, target minutes is a pain... It just does not work. It makes you lose. I tried it and lost games...

You ask yourself : is there somebody on the bench? That player is exhausted, get him out of the game!!!

On man to man, I feel it works fine and on zone, your players don't get tired as fast as other defensive sets so it can be pretty efficient.

The most disappointing part is that it's my Transylvania (Iba ) team. I've been their only coach and we've made the post-season 78 consecutive times.   At 5-12, even the PIT will be a miracle at this point.    My RPI is 82 but my final 9 games are against RPIs of 8, 19, 51, 11, 300, 51, 36, 17, and 26.

I usually go ahead and do a target minute setup even if I don't plan on using it on the off chance that it gets used accidentally, then at least if it does it's something sensible.

this is why I no longer use my iPad to do anything on this game -- way too easy to brush the screen in the wrong spot and not realize something has been changed inadvertently. And the target minutes/fatigue section just seems to be where my clumsy fingers would always be on the screen when the page loaded.

This happened to me about four months ago.  Customer Service told me I had caused my own pain by playing with the settings.  I tried target minutes once three years ago, and never touch that button.

I find that I can flip from fatigue to target or from one game plan to another by accident if I move between teams too quickly.  

Most common is that somehow I transfer one team's game plan to another when I do that.  Rare but happens - and I tell myself dont try to game plan by hasty flipping between one world and the next

Surprise, surprise!  I won all 9 of those games and am now 14-12 and projected as a #7 seed.

Sounds like its going to be the sort of seven seed someone is going to HATE to have to play ...
