Negative FF?

Post by hutchinsfairy »

Essentially, if I don't buy any FF for a new team and then concede my very first match, do I end up with -1 Fan Factor or 0? I can't see anything in the rules to say you can't have negative FF but it would seem odd and make TV and gate calculations out of whack. Any thoughts or something I missed in the rules?

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.

No, it stops at zero. Which is just as well, given how abstract it would make FAME calculations if you ended up with a negative modified fan roll...!

Not to mention that this would strongly imply that you can "buy" a negative amount of fan factor at team creation - how about starting with 1200 GP worth of team but a -20 fan factor?? :orc:
