Why fines?
In the game your team can get a fine or even several fines. These fines can be given for different reasons. Your coach can tell you exactly why you have got a fine or (for that matter) a bonus. Not all of these fines are avoidable; some of theme are the consequence of a unlucky situation, as they can be in reality.
These fines come in three categories
- € 50.000
- € 75.000
- € 100.000
Fines can be given for:
- Game rules
For instance not filling in the obligations in the game in the right way: fill in failures, not making the deadline, uploading pictures the wrong way, problems with usernames and passwords, using copy rights photo's, making decisions in prices or costs which are not allowed etc.
- Game content
In the game you sometimes have to react as to questions asked by Christina, the board of directors or sometimes governmental organisations. If you fail in doing so, or are to late, or for instance if asked for can not deliver your financial figures on a tax-control, you might get fined. Things that are forbidden in the real economy are also forbidden in the game, so they might lead to a fine. For instance forming a price-bond with (to many) other teams is not allowed.
- Game accusation
One of the other teams or organisations can accuse you. You also have the right to do so. Accusing a team leads to lawsuit. Any team can ask for the court to decide on issues. This can be an other team or any organisation, and visa versa. In the game the Game the coaches will decide on this and ask experts on law to advice them. Keep in mind that accusing will cost you € 25.000 which, if you win the case, will have to be paid by the loosing party. The verdict of the court can also mean that if you indictment was not validly you might have to pay the costs of the court, the costs of the accused party and get a fine for compensating your wrongdoing.
These fines also come in the same three categories.
Bonuses and fines can be given in any year, including year0!
Influence of fines
Fines and bonuses while have direct effect on the profit of the year if which they are given. There is a special item on you operating review where they will be mentioned. So they will directly influence (for the good or the bad) the result of (only) this year. But as the results of any year lead to the total of the profit (or lose..) accumulated after all of the years played, any figure on the operating review has influence on your ranking and net profit. So do fines and bonusses. So fines can be seen directly on your the results part of your teamsheet.
