Well it would have to happen in an offseason and be given at least half a season's notice. But for most nations with a dozen or so real players it isn't such an issue as very few are proper division I teams and most are like a beginning team with 1 or 2 expensive players.

I think it is an excellent idea to merge leagues with regional groupings. It would add a competitive flavour as the individual countries compete. Scotland-England, India-Pakistan and so on would be great subplots.

Hey B.B. King, can't wait to hear what you have to say on this, after our last little exchange ;)

Hey.
I don't know what You want to hear ;-)

I recently won my Div I title & my money jumped for attendance hugely, merchandise to come, so there are big advantages to be had there.

So I see You finally noticed that advantage of playing in small country is huge and it makes that practically game is too easy ;-) And I'm happy that You stoped to think about adding next advantages for small countries ;-)

Maybe bots in small countries should be stronger ;-) It will be funny if alive manager with many titles loses games against bots ;-) Yep, it's my idea ;-)

Sadly for me, it's impossible to differenciate league and NT. If not, there will be collusion to get better draft pick than the other nation.

Welsh will finish 1 to 8 while scotts will finish 9 to 16 and get and overall better draft.


i don't think this would have such a big impact, because
a) a high draft pick doesn't necessarily mean a great trainee
b) those small NT would suck anyway

the real major drawback is the manipulation of existing leagues, especially forcing teams to be relegated in a lower league



anyway it's nice to see that after many years someone accepted the idea that there's a problem with the small nations
maybe it wasn't only a fantasy of the usual italian crybabies

I didn't read this whole thread, but I wanted to give my input.

Recently i have been looking at a lot of carribean teams, and there are 5 i believe, but only a few have more than 10 users. I think if they were to merge in to a Carribean League, then they could have much more fun competing between D.I and D.II.

also, if the national teams for all the countries merged in to the Carribean Team or whatever, they could possibly compete in NT games. but that is just if the teams' NTs were merged, which would probably have to be decided.

and third, if you were actually from Antigua or Haiti or anywhere that doesn't currently have a league, you could have your country flag instead of having a different flag.
