just a FYI.

I am pleased with the team's performance last season: 2 balls. ;)

Just realized that Ambitious and Misunderstood's big men have almost as much salary as Wozz's full team, and more salary than 3 other NBBA teams. And his rival is me...yay.

BB economy is weird. When I used to be in BBB, I had 970k salary and just about broke even. After that, I had 900k salary and broke even. Last season, in an attempt to build some cash, I dropped down to 800k and broke even (and barely stayed up). I'm not sure how I'm supposed to make money if I'm not a team on the way up.

Anyway, all this to say, in an attempt to build some cash foundation, reset my interest in the game, and protect Nielsen's GS for the worlds, in a way I couldn't do down the stretch last season, I may decide to tank, relegate, and be the weak link of our conference. We'll see.



Pretty sure the optimal strategy for AMERICA is for the top 20 teams to enter a cycle of tanking->relegating->promoting, with everyone participating you'll have four seasons of tanking to one season of outspending a D.II. Then we start designating people to win B3 with the profits.

If someone fluke-loses their D.II then we just have to indoctrinate #21, it's in their best-interest financially (arguably not from an entertainment standpoint though).

I'm sort of considering following this plan by my lonesome, I turned a slight profit without even trying from my shenanigans the past two seasons, not even counting all the out-of-position training I got done "for free".

edit: I think this has been brought up before I'm just starting to feel like the clique is small enough that it might work, heh. I haven't read the game rules in forever but I don't remember any competitiveness/sportsmanship clauses...

I think I have a problem and my problem is that it was more fun tanking than playing properly in NBBA.

An agreement induced salary cap of the league salary floor? Cap holds and exceptions for hosting american NT players?

But you've already stockpiled all of the American NT! We're onto you!
