...

I'm sure you wish you were in any other league. You have my sincere sympathy, sir.

I'm fine where I am. Any online game is only what the players make of it, so I just choose to be positive or not play at all.

There are a lot of practical reasons why your idea wouldn't work, but even them aside I don't think you would get your desired effect. Even in a league where every team has an active human manager, you will find it can be very quiet as well. Some managers don't like to interact, many only log on a few minutes a week, managers are always quitting and new ones take their places, especially in lower leagues.

Of course it would be nice to be in a league with 15 super active people who's life revolves around the game (well maybe not that nice), but it's just a utopian ideal that wouldn't happen no matter how you group the countries.

Why can't the BBs get rid of these pitiful little countries and agglomerate them with bigger entities roundabout them? There are only 50k users in the game. Split them into 10k pots, maybe on a continental basis, and let competition commence. Such a system would make the game more fun and equitable for all. Maybe it will enhance growth as well. One might be tempted to stick around for a challenge worth mentioning. And as an additional bonus we will not have to witness the whining of our Italian and Spanish compadres when a Ghanaian outbids them on the TL or for a staff member.

Do you not see how it's funny to play without rivals?
(i'm ironic...)

If you're talking about HT, been there, done that.

Perhaps you missed the bit where I said community is what retains people. And I maintain people do not join HT for the culture, but for the chance to COMPETE with others at being a football manager.

I expect better from you Kozlodoev, after becoming acquainted with the usual high quality of your posts.

I admire your positivity, hope it lasts.

You may well be right. But I felt I had to express my view, misguided as it may be.

with close to 900,000 years despite its horrific gameplay.
