Good evening! I have never made it to Naismith before. I am wondering now that I have broken through, what should I change my prices to? Any help from someone who is in/has been in Naismith before would be much appreciated. Thank you.

How many of each seat type do you have? Find a similar team in Naismith. Look at their prices. Look at the % that they sold. Don't count playoff games. You can add a little $ to those prices until the allstar break because of promotion.

If you really want to cheat look at what I set my prices to today. I was going over the same thing earlier. Good luck!

For the first half of the season you can really crank up the bleacher prices, promotion bonus is quite powerful. Don't forget to lower them during the all star break if you have a losing streak though. Lower tier is the same story, but you can price them higher, especially because you don't have that much. Courtside/luxury are more stable.
I'd say go quite high, and adjust after a month (when you can change them again) to have an optimal revenue. And adjust again during the all star break.
All in all it's about the same as in other divisions, it's just that you'll make 200k more =)

Looks like we are both doing well arena-wise this first half from looking on buzzer manager.

I want to say Sunday before the playoffs, but not 100% sure. Could be a Sunday before that. On draft list they will display 'not eligible for playoffs' next to a player on the market if he won't be able to play

Damian was right, the Sunday after the last regular season match.

Gotta say that trying to purchase decent players now is dang near impossible. Not only are there very few quality players on the market - but most of them are so over priced its not even funny.

Even worse trying to buy trainable players...

Any advice?

Also who the hell is Mod- beanerz?

I guess training is the magic word. The reduction of Free agents and the decreasining numbers of managers has left to the increased prices. And BB want the manager to train players. And as BB finally is BB an economic game. So train and sell players. Problem, managers like me, we are too romantic and want to keep the players we train. So ... up to you, what are you making of this.

Hell Ya - We are coming from the North to conquer your arena ...

This imo is fundamentally the flaw in the game that the BBs aren't recognizing, and unfortunately, there isn't a silver bullet to avoid it. Nobody wants to wait 3 irl years of training before putting together a team. Those who have followed their advice and trying JR and SB on players are only now fully trained, I think I've been training 2-3 years for a 3-2 SB team, and I'm still 6+ months away.
I think they need to eventually double training speeds, and put safeguards to prevent hoarding (which may already be sufficient with the taxes). That way people can put competitive team after a year or two of playing (3-5 seasons), and instead of the past where teams did it through day-trading, they'd be doing it by training.

Edit: And there'd be a lot more experimental teams, to add more flavour to the games

I have come to learn that the only way I can compete is load up with cheap 35yo+ players
This bidding / free agent system is inherently flawed and is really starting to show up now with less and less active players

I think at some point, like others have said, training will need to be changed or sped up, OR the whole player system needs to be changed to a contract type system (like some other sport sims and real sports)

but mainly to your point, load up on old players, seriously, no other way
