it can detect a bounce, a 360° spin whatever

so how do you detect if the bounce was good? its not such an exact thing
in the end everybody will just bounce every ball, and run around spinning like hell
i see no serious potential in this

How about -3pts for an own goal...Currently you lose nothing for it...

rather not
its usually a bad accident, and most times it cannot be blamed on the owngoaler, its when you pass back to the keeper and that one fucks up
you can hardly blame a defender for it

and people who owngoal on purpose dont care about their awards anyway

so you still want -3 for owngoal, onge?

I think some penalty for an og is appropriate, but as you aren't gonna do it, it matters not... :p

I think you need to reward keepers somehow, since you removed the best keeper award...

keeper award was dumb, doesnt show the best keeper, rather points out the keeper who had more work.

Hmmmm...I don't see the harm in leaving Best Keeper award in...After all, keeping is a thankless task anyway...Having an award, no matter how flawed, is surely better than no award at all?

And as there is room for more awards, why not keep the Most Scorer, Most Assists etc rewards? OK, the new system will show who is Best Attacker but it is still nice to see at a glance who got the most goals or whatever...F1 is too hard to read (and you can't see them during replays, which is when you are most likely to have a look)...

the same could be said for passes and missed chances, someone doesnt catch a pass, the passer gets a bad pass, if it happens to go to the keeper i think it counts as a missed chance

stats hardly reflect how well people play

not being able to see f1 during replays is a bug and will be fixed.
so you can see the details

ya morningstar, thats right, hate that too, but what do you wanna do against it? we just try to get as close to the reality as possible with these stats, only a human would be able to see whose fault it was etc.

I still think it would be good to have the "best scorer" and "best assist"...or at least just top scorer...people do care about who scored the most goals.
