Why are my rotations getting changed?

[tarantism]

I run a 30 team association on 2k12 and I am getting very frustrated. I spend a lot of time getting team's 9/10 man rotations correct and then when I simulate the 2012 season (I like to start on the second season) I notice that by the end of the year the 11th and 12th guys in every rotation have been assigned 4-7 minutes, taking minutes away from other players? Why is the game doing this? I have bench depth set to 0 for all team, and I have Lineup Management and Simulation Strategy in Association Customization both set to "off".

What's the point of letting us set our own rotations if the game just changes them for you anyway? Has anybody figured out how to prevent this?

Do you have injuries on/off?

injuries are off

I am seriously the only person having this problem?

I have a hunch that it could be tied to player roles. I currently have them on, so the CPU might feel the need to modify my rotations. In the descriptions it says that bench warmers and prospects want to get on the court at least once per game, so maybe the computer is simply trying to account for that. That's the only explanation that I can think of right now. It would mean that I wasted a lot of time trying to do the rotations for every team only to have to start all over again with player roles off but...oh well I guess.

did you set the lineup management in the beginning when you started the franchise to user for everyone? it takes a few min to set it to user for all 30 teams but that could be the reason if you didnt.

Yes I had everything set to user. I seem to have found a way to stop the issue from happening, even though I did not figure out WHY it was happening. When I stopped simulating two days before the player re-signing deadline and then simulated the day before, the day of the deadline and the day after one day at a time before continuing to simulate the remainder of the season then my rotations remained in tact. It was weird but at least I got it to stop happening so whatever.

no you are not the only one having this problem.
