I feel like I am tanking this round. Refuse to use trades to try and salvage a poor position. Next 2 rounds should be salvageable depending on who plays of course. But it just doesn't feel right at all :'( :'(  6 donuts on the field if all goes well. :o

I'm in the same boat mate, so many donuts this rd i'm writing it off and focusing on the other two rds.

I'm not focusing on any round, have my team set to be perfect so I'm happy with that easy load of wins later on.

I have 8 donuts and not trading.... Am i tanking?? I guess you could say so.

But is there any benefit in giving away games?? Not really. So it can't really be called tanking.

There is benefit if you consider saving your trades for the next couple of rounds as valuable.

Not using this round (tanking) and copping an extravagant number of donuts is asking for a loss.

He means tanking is when you get a benefit from losing like draft picks. Even if you don't care about taking lots of donuts you still want to win. Its not ranking I would equate it to resting.
