Couldn't find a relevant thread for a good moan.
The Ultimate Blue Roses v The Empire of Walkeramia >> Match Ratings Match Ratings The Ultimate Blue Roses The Empire of Walkeramia Batting - Top Order: 11,534 10,749 Batting - Middle Order: 10,280 9,636 Batting - Tail: 4,836 3,524 Bowling - Seam: 10,731 (4) 10,286 (6) Bowling - Spin: 11,596 (6) 10,293 (4) Fielding/Keeping: 12,405 10,551 Overall: 195,224 175,207
Ok, how is this even possible. 20k match rating difference, they out rate me in the more then 0 areas and they freaking beat me by 51 runs. What the hell!!!
I thought, I know I have epic spinners, his are crap plus he only has 2 spinners, so you'd say pick a spinning pitch, so I do. Only difference is, my spinners are shit and his appear to be awesome.
Can someone just give me a reason why I lost because right now I just want to Transfer List everyone.

Firstly don't quote ratings differences as absolute, it's misleading and not how the game works... it wasn't 20K it was 10.8%. Now remember that Ash has regularly called anything less than a 10% gap "well matched"... so you were slight favourites, certainly not overwhelming.
His spinners were only about 10% worse than yours, not really crap.
You lost because your batsmen got out though, rather than going on, it's that simple... the game wasn't expected to be one sided, maybe 75/25 and you hit the wrong side of those odds.
Fretwell also looks like a serious weak link, his 3rd seamer performed better than your 3rd spinner... given Fretwell looks to have been the weak link in the bowling, that's perfectly reasonable.

whereas the occurrences of games like this are precisely why I think it doesn't.

A similar instance of the Match Engine producing an exciting result for a weaker side.. ReDuX Dbest XI Batting - Top Order: 11,785 10,524 Batting - Middle Order: 11,312 7,257 Batting - Tail: 4,200 3,935 Bowling - Seam: 9,803 (4) 9,829 (6) Bowling - Spin: 12,052 (6) 9,938 (4) Fielding/Keeping: 10,031 9,402 Overall: 190,838 160,495 I won by 33 runs. fromthepavilion.org/scorecard.htm?gameId=996812
