Hello,

I think it's not more than normal each time the website is down and unavailable, the people who bought a supporter package should have their supporter membership extended. Actually, i don't even understand why this not already the case now ?
I've played manager games on many other websites also (now it's only buzzerbeater) , and on most of those websites, the membership was extended each time the website was down. So for example, if the website was down for 12 hours, then also the membership was extended with 12 hours. Which is totally logical, because we pay an amount for a certain period of play time. And if the website is down there is no play time neither, so we shouldn't pay for time during which we can't play.
So how about it BB-staff, wouldn't you say also it's about time to get this fixed...

best regards,
Eagle

Is the website ever down for a substantial period of time?

Other then offseason processing which is planned I can't think of that many times its been down at all.

Yes, it's something that is in my own mind... I think that we (supporters) should be rewarded for all problems the game have with delays, in general. And I think that not-supporters should be rewarded with one week of supporter features too, all free, for the patience :-)
Greetings.

I think as a Christmas present they could give everyone a free week of being a supporter. I would bet that there would be some non-supporters that would think it was really cool and would want to become and remain supporters for the long term. However they would have to balance this against all the current supporters not paying for a week. It may be an expensive gift/promotion.

I guess you forgot that supporter features are really heavy for the servers, so giving it free for everybody at the same time would only create BB's Armageddon...
