i don't think you've read my posts properly.

1) it's still a well known fact and there are plenty of conferences with that problem. You just don't seem to see it too often, but every country has atleast 1 if not more. As for more games per week, then you are evolving into a PPM type of game. we already got 3 games a week ( 2 competition + a cup/scrimmage game) More than enouhg

2) Getting up to II is doable in most nations. but the way your team is constructed, that is as far as you will be going. You've hit your limit and soon you'll start feeling annoyed by it. I've seen some teams go from V to I in 6 seasons time. so i know it can be done, but those are the exceptions. Still nice run. i doubt you'll be going much futher tho for a while now.

3) The reason they ain't interested is because they have nothing invested in them. if they do, they would have more interest in them. question is, do you want to keep U21/Nt a side show or do you want to give your community something to rally behind?

4) And this is what shows me that you aren't a starting manager. Not a single new user would complain about the game engine, since they don't understand how bad it is to build a team for the future, only to see a change in the game engine screw your entire long term planning. Don't fix what ain't broken! (ow and btw, if you got the knowledge to build a team and know how the game works, then it's rather easy to promote fast.)

5) forum dies because people don't want to invest in it. having BB's answering people means they aren't programming new features. You just got to know what you would prefer. them answering for your every small complaint here or them answering.


I'm sorry but i disagree with almost everything you've written down. Now i can spend time trying to point it out, with examples etc. However, that just won't help out this thread because it will simply become waaaay to long ( my original post was 22 posts, so i've already cut it in half and then some.

thx for taking the time to read through it tho.

as always, kind regards

I like your point about the "addition" to the TV money that you make. That should be taken into account, but i ain't sure how you are going to make a divide the U21/NT's into groups (unless you take the same groups more my U21/NT suggestion that is. Still, thanks for pointing that part out.

@Goldenhoop: interesting views. i wouldn't agree with the merger view tho, as i prefer good competition that playing bots (i've had bots in IV. very boring time...) but that is just me.

@Jay Keep me posted. i'm looking forward to seeing your post(s)

Just to clarify: I support the merge that was introduced this season (and earlier for Africa) I was only talking about merging National Teams, as Underwood suggested. That's why I suggested my idea on Utopia draftees, in order to let each nation keep their own NT.

Div.2 Spain is stronger than div.1 Belgium, in terms of managers strength. So you are clearly talking nonsense.

We'll agree to disagree on this comment. and i'm not even going to bother going into it, because it's Irrelevant for this topic.

do you want to keep U21/Nt a side show or do you want to give your community something to rally behind?

I want them to be a side show, or even better, I want them to disappear.

Then another interesting aspect would dissappear from BB, leaving very few options for some Managers. it's compete or quit. here, with the U21/NT you can train for the U21/NT and run for the U21/NT job. So you would make BB more one dimensional, which means that more people will quit.

Not a single new user would complain about the game engine,

I am not complaining about the GE. It is very good. I am complaining about not a single BB understands the GE, so it is impossible any sensible talk about changes or improvements, or any feedback about research done by managers. This is what is really killing the game in the long term, because the game engine is the essence of the game.

Going to say it again. What ain't broken, don't need fixing. It doesn't need changing cause it works more than good enough!

Anyhow, no point in argueing with you. it's clear that we have very different visions on the game. all i can say is if we follow yours, the game is over within 1 year.

What ain't broken, don't need fixing.

So why have you proposed destroying league forums, where context of competition leads to unique users joining the discussion, only to introduce division forums, where users are likely to have nothing in common?
Actually, game engine actually has a lot things to be fixed. Foul game. Forfeits. Weird subs. Not to mention buggy game viewer, where there's a really lot to do.
Also, earlier in discussion someone said that game engine can't be improved cause it can't be understood. Just like your 10-post list of suggestions, where only the one about game evaluation has more pros than cons.

EDIT:

Anyhow, no point in argueing with you. it's clear that we have very different visions on the game. all i can say is if we follow yours, the game is over within 1 year.

Not the best way to give feedback. Looks like you try to say (not only here, but in all of your response) "your opinion doesn't matter, cause I'm better than you'll ever be".

I don't know what 'managers strength' means to you, but I strongly disagree with your statement.

I was going to post there, that there are less active communities, than Belgium, so it was a bad choice of country in your example. However, after second thought, I'm just going to say, that in lot of cases, disrespecting managers just because you've reached D2 in one of biggest nations in BB is usually unfair to such users.
