Compare the intensity of how good you feel when you win the dice roll for a player where you have less than 30% chance to how bad you feel when you lose a player to someone else who had less than 30% chance?

bigger when you win or when you lose?

I'm far more ****** when I lose, and I imagine most people feel that way. The lucky win, I shrug my shoulders, say it's a trash system and move on. More importantly for the game, people remember the unlucky losses more than lucky wins -- it's science. Which is one of the reasons why the system is dumb.

GREAT point.

It's about getting a feeling of accomplishment. Get lucky on super long shot, it's meh, not really much I can feel good about there. Maybe you get a chuckle.

You are such a suck up. I'm embarrassed for you.

One team one dream!

i wouldnt know. dont think i have ever won a dice roll. avoid them like the plaque but every couple of years or so someone will sneak from moderate to high and all of a sudden the dude signs with that team even though im 75-25 favorite.

i think i win 14% of the time when im a 75% favorite.

so, to answer the question.. definitely for me at d3 feels worse to lose dice roll as favorite.

it might be different at d3. because really... to me, if you go into a dice roll as 25%... well you screwed up somewhere along the line and dont really deserve to win... why would i feel good about that? i know this is weird.. but if it ever happened to me i think i would feel guilty

You're absolutely right. At D3, you can avoid dice rolls and win titles. Not possible to do that at D1 unless you're A+++ prestige and everyone is afraid of you.

There aren't enough players generated in Phelan D1 northeast, east and southeast, not studs necessarily, more D1 quality fill in players.
