I'd like to know why this player (4776895) wasn't released this monday..I recruit him in order to obtain the release, but his team is still alive even if the user is inactive since 11 of april..is it a bug or do you change releasing rules?

he will be released when the owner turns bot. We are doing the same thing in our national team and we wait untill the guy who didn't logged in since the 8th of april turns bot.

They appear to have extended the period of inactivity from 5 weeks to 6 weeks. So that meant that the teams that became bots this week had last logged in between March 31 and April 7. The exact dates may vary depending on where you are, and the time of the last login. I know that sometimes a team that shows a last login on the last day of the week (eg April 7) will become a bot on the first date available, and sometimes it will be the following week.

I don't know whether the 6-week period of inactivity is a permanent change or something that might change back. In any case, I'd keep Mr. Obaseki on your NTroster for another week.

I was the coach of Nigeria also in the previous two seasons, so I know how the release works..but in the previous seasons a team became bot after 5 weeks of inactivity..probably, as jimrtex said, BB’s extended the time of inactivity..but I’d like to ear the BB’s confirmation..

Over the offseason, there was a week when no teams were bot'ified (and players released). I don't know whether this was part of a change in the timeout period, or just a skipped weak that may be caught up at some time in the future.

If I were a NT coach and wanted to protect a player, for this coming week, I'd watch for players on teams that hadn't logged in between April 7-14 AND April 14-21. (or get direct information from the BB's).
