When sandbagging goes horribly wrong...

Won the 1st 3 matchups with 20, 20, and 230,000 points.  Then the magic matchup program said "Nope, not no more f$#ker!

I sandbag with 10-20. @dfbb sandbags with about 6 more 0’s on the end

All jokes aside, Debbie non withstanding, because so many bag at bare minimums, it seems like I get consistently better matchups if I’m bagging if I post 20-30k vs 10 or 20.

Debbie is a beast at CVC.. 10-20 points worked great for a long time, but after a while I found that 100-1,000 points was a pretty nice sweetspot.

One hundo percent. If all I want is the reward and to be matched up with lesser clubs or better yet dormant ones I will put up between 5-12k, sometimes up to 20k. Works all the time. That said, during the week I go balls out on Tuesday w/fp to get milestones and Thursday's sometimes if I have 1+ bonus guy leveled higher than p5.

Weekends tend to be the low thousands play until last 3 on Sunday. I haven't bought fp on weekend since they restructured the rewards and haven't had a leveled bonus player since potm was released, which maybe is their last hurrah this weekend so we'll see.

My version of sandbagging is to just play one round with video boosts, and I usually score in the 1-3M range.  That almost always leads to my next opponent being someone who would be lucky to score 1M, but also helps me avoid the full-on sandbaggers.  Also helps me reach the FP tier 5 consistently without having to dump points in other clubs (I just blow out the last round if necessary to get to 37M).

There's actually a very nice art to sandbagging CvC. The key is to avoid the CvC edge guys as well as the FP dumpers. If you do that, you're generally okay.
