Prizes and sponsor bonus postponed. Promotions can
I'm afraid we have some bad news. As you might have noticed, we recently added "bot teams" to Virtual Manager. That is, clubs controlled by server bots. The cool thing about bot teams, is that new users can take over an existing club instead of creating a new one from scratch when signing up for Virtual Manager.
This let new users play league matches from day one, instead of having to wait until next season.
This feature however, have caused some bugs in the season update: the leagues did not "finalize" correctly: [list] No league prizes have been awarded. No liga history have registered. No league trophies have been given. No sponsor bonuses have been awarded. No relegations/promotions. [/list] Thanks to our backup procedure we can fix all but one of these problems: We cannot perform this season's relegations/promotion. These are all cancelled.
We're very sorry for this - but unfortunately it is not possible for us to fix this.
The good news is that all clubs that did not end 1st of 2nd will eventually get everything they are entitled to (awards, bonuses, etc.).
Clubs that should've been promotod will receive an appropriate Credits compensation.
The fixes for these bugs will take some time to craft and execute. We expect everything will be fixed tomorrow afternoon. However, it may happen as late as Tuesday. We will do everything we can to fix everything as fast as possible.
Of course, we will also make sure this does not happen next Sunday.

Thank you for updating us on the situation also
Clubs that should've been promotod will receive an appropriate Credits compensation.
If you are going to be fair then it should be the 1st place money plus 15 x the increased gate revenue, you should aslo promote the team next week irrespective of their position this week !!!
Becuse i won div.5 Italy.
Disgruntled Vm Manager(Possibly ex manager!!)
still think the game is well worth the premium rate,so keep up the good work
I'm assuming it's just promoted/relegated teams, staying in the same country, affected and not teams moving country? Otherwise, I should have been playing in Italy Division 3 again???
Conclusion - i will meet stronger teams in my division since there have been alot of high value transfers.
and iam back here were iam waiting for the money so i can improve my squad pretty sad

Just seems a shame for so many managers to miss out by having to cancel their promotions.
Fix this please..

I should´ve been promoted to div.4 but now i can win the div.5 again. Of course my players will reitire a week "earlier" but in the years i have played vman this has never happened before so i don´t get what everyones problem is.
if you crusied it then yea you should
but if your a team like me who have many games that can go either way and with a few teams that are fighting with promotion with you, it could be as little as 1 result difference could be the difference between promotion or staying in the same league
has players valuations been effected in this outage?? or have they been updated yet?
If they are capable of staying in a higher division then they are capable of finishing in the top 2 of the current division again. Therefore they are oly at a loss for 1 season, for which they will already be compensated.
As for 500k? You are having a Giraffe. Im in a higher division and I dont make 500k
plus i dont see how you have come to a figure of 500,000 for a team your size, i probably wouldn't come to that figure at my size
you probably could raise your ticket only by one (if not already at max) so that is only an extra 1,916 a game so that would be only 28,740 more credits a season, and thats only if you sell out every game, then as for sponsors maximum i would say you could get at a maximum is 18,812 so together you have missed out on less than 50,000
no where near the 500,000 you have claimed, not even 10% of it
this is one season which you didn't get promoted as a bug and they are compensating you with what you would miss not what you make in 3 seasons or even in a whole season
plus you talk about training ground upgrade, ill tell you now no point unless you want to piss that money away as non premium teams cant use grounds about LTG which you are currently at
When will we get compensation?
The size of the compensation for each club is a calculation based on how much more the clubs in the league above them earn on average, and how much each affected club earned last season.
So, if the clubs in the division above you earn on average 200% more than in your current division, and you earned 100.000 credits in prizes, ticket sales and sponsorships, then your compensation will be 200.000 credits.
Each affected club has received a message with with details of how their individual compensation amount was calculated.
You have received your sponsorship payout from Skandinaviske Luftlinjer.
Base amount: 39,232 C
Bonus amount: 184,219 C
Total: 223,451 C
where is my money for this season?
people being promoted had to lower their bonus requirement as they would be seeded near the bottom and visa versa for relegation
i had mine rejected because of this
i asked 70,000 base, 35,000 bonus and then requirement was from 13-15 (different for each sponsor)
my asking price was even less than what i could of got maximum i just rounded it down to get a nice round number
but because i didn't get promoted im seeded towards the top so therefore way above what i ask for my requirements resulting in rejection
Just getting what is owed does not sit right. compensation should be awarded.
B) Compensation has been paid
Ramsus himself says that's the reason it got cancelled, and you answered him,
but still no compo just wanna know why
support ticket in will let you know
your sponsor didn't not reject you because of that
