No it doesn´t need to.

TV money is calculated by the strength of the league / players. As player skills and player salaries are more or less directly connected (other than let´s say in the NBA, where the salary is based on plenty things but not just on ACTUAL skill), and because salaries are independet of the league level, the league strength -> TV contract -> salaries are all "in some way" connected with each other.

And this is bad or good? Actually there´s some now blood in the competition, right? And by forming unions, you´d protect the old, long-term teams, wouldn´t you?
What????!?!?
A union of several small nation that will compete will just make them like a regular size BB-nation. not anything else.
It may affect (for good) the competitiveness of those countries.

Meaning - the other way around, and not relevant.

How the salary floor is calculated is a separate issue.

The TV money (for example) needs to be calculated upon each week average salary (on that week) throughout the division (or conference).

The TV income is not calculated weekly, it is per season based on the strength of the league. The TV income among div I leagues around the world differ quite a lot. The fluctuation is smaller across div II leagues in a single nation, but the money is not the same for everyone.

OK, so the only thing that is needed to be changed in that case is to calculate it weekly, due to the huge fluctuation on salaries during a season.

What you did not say, is how this calculation is computed. On which parameters?
If it is on the average salaries on that division, than this is what should be.

the bb didn't realised the formula, and at least the huge fluctuation in salarys isn't the case in my league that quite constant ;) There are cross effect betwen the same division level betwen the countrys, which should make the salary even more stable through the bigger amount of teams.(there are just slight differences betwen different third division in one country)

But maybe they let influence it by averages, over the last season i wouldn't be surprised at least.

This is more of a question but I have already wondered how the TV is calculated. Does anyone know if it is based on the average salaries for the entire season or the average salaries at the moment the season ends because that can be a lot different as teams sell off lots of their good players in the offseason, someone must buy them, but here in Australia it is quite common for teams that have had $300,000-$500,000 rosters all season to be at the salary floor at the end of the season.

I believe you did not understood what I've meant.

1) Each division - either on the same country or not, should have a separate calculation upon the average salaries when defining the income of teams there. Income means - TV, Merchandise and Arena's fullness.
[Of course that not all of this components are only affected by the average salary at that division.]

2) As each team is constantly changing, and the salary at the start of the seasons is by no mean has any relation to the one at the end of the season, this calculation is needed to be a weekly based calculation.
By that, teams that are tanking hoping to get enough income (due to the above items) to make that tanking worth it, may think twice.

This is (one reason) why I suggested it to be calculated on a weekly basis.
The fluctuation here are huge due to the fact that rosters can be changed throughout the season, and due to the fact that tanking scheme is widely used.
