My idea is simple : every team relegated should have the possibility to choose to go in the serie in which a friend plays.

So the interested manager send a request to all members of a serie, and they can accept or reject this proposal in one day ( this is to prevent the abuse of this instrument ).
If the majority of managers accept the proposal, the team is included in that series.
If they refuses the proposal the team will be the automatic system to assign the series , as it is now .

Each team relegated can send the request only to one serie.
A "manager" can receive and accept more requests .

If more proposal are accepted and there isn't place for all the teams, only the relegated team with the best record will be part of the series. The others will be assigned randomly .

I thought about this suggestion to have the chance to play in the same series of some BB friends .
It could be a very fun and exciting solution and could help to keep alive the game.

Hattrick does/did have something like that. Before a new season managers could choose to switch leagues with a bot.

In HT there is a whole offseason week. In BB there are just 24 hours. Not sure if there is enough time here to organize that.

I don't know it. So my idea is to give this possibility only with promoted or demoted, not always ;)

For promoted teams there are only 24 hours, you are right but for the relegated teams are 6 days from Relegation game 3, so my idea is possible. Do you agree?

It's complicated. Just imagine several requests for the same league, for example. You are thinking about two friends trying to play together and have more fun, and that's a legit reason, but with this possibility, we will probably have lots of request from experienced users trying to play in an easier league. And you just have to get on well with another guy in the game to have that. It would end in a race to see which team sends the request first. So the real friends will end in different leagues and more frustration.
As a start point it's not a bad idea, but needs more elaboration.

My idea is that each team relegated can send the request only to a friend .
A "friend" can receive and accept more friend requests .
If the series in which the friend plays no place for all the teams he " accepted ", only the relegated team with the best record will be part of the series. The others are assigned randomly .
The important thing is that if you are not real friends the manager rejects the proposal and stop.

I do not agree with you because what you said may happen now and indeed certainly happens, but we do not know. Even now a team may decide to play the game of life (mots) against an opponent just to promote other team more sympathetic. I do not understand what is the difference between the current situation and what might happen with my suggestion.

I start from a different point of view: BB is a game where everyone wants to win more games to be the best, there is rivalry between all managers, and the friendship is only to write to the same forum or send private messages.

I think that the not introduction of a change for its possible negative consequences is a reasoning too superficial.
Even the increase of salary for inside skills for PG and SG next year is a change that will bring serious damnage to all managers who until now have trained the inside skills in outside players.
Even this innovation will lead to negative consequences, much of my suggestion.

That sounds good! I think this is a great idea to promote the game and encourage new managers to play on BB!

I agree with Sventra, it would be a wonderful idea if someone could choose to go with friends !!!
