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.
