You've made 3 million, that figure is net.

copy/paste from the wrong forum :)
Here are some minor suggestions from me.


* Move the age when a player starts to drop. Higher potential players sometimes wont make it up to their cap, and if they do, they get only a short peak before the drops starts coming fast. My suggestion would be that the drops start at 34 instead of 33. Or better yet, make it a hidden stat weather or not the player age gracefully [ :D] (some players do fall off a cliff early and some seem to age well)

* Reduce the number of extremely low-potential players in the draft. Sorting through all the garbage players (potential 1 or 2) just drains too many draft points and might discourage people from investing in draft, which makes smaller nations National teams suffer. A slight increase in mid-to high potentials (say all-star to MVP) wouldnt hurt either.

* Reduce the numbers of giants, players with height 7.3" or up should be a bigger deal I think.


Ok, enough with that. A great game can always get a little bit better, but all in all BB is a charm to play.

What about training calenders? So you can more easily plan your training schedule

Please, can somebody do something about for those boring and eternal fifteen minutes break?

Comments, statistics or something. Be creative.

Too, I want to suggest a new way to order the players when you are going to set your lineup. Usually they are put randomly. No alphabetic or jersey number list. This is useful when you are using a not so advance smartphone like mine.

Maybe the tactics could be displayed only after the end of Q2 and some kind of sports commentary be displayed like:

Team A obviously runs a Motion offense and defends with a 3-2/2-3 zone. This defense has been very succesful for them as they rank 3rd in points allowed/this defense matches up very well against the low post strategy of the opponent... and so on.

There should be a way to code a meaningful commentary that uses stats, tactics and lineups to create a text. Maybe even feature single players who drop a few words:

Let's ask our courtside reporter Buzz R. Beater, what Player X, the reigning scoring champion has to say.

Buzz: Yo, wassup dawg, good job good effort, what'S your take on the game so far?
Player X: One love, no homo. Yeah, we tried to pound the ball, very strong defense - now we have to make a strong push to get it done.

Add a point differential to the Rivalry History page. Even though my rival has a 2:1 win ratio against me, I believe we have fairly close PD, probably <20.

I have a minor suggestion: Buying draft picks from BOT before draft.

I know that there could be cheating if buying / selling draft picks between active teams. Therefore, my idea is from active teams to BOT in lower level of leagues only. All the money go to BB, just like "Free Agent".

In order to purchase the draft picks, teams need to spend money to buy picks and use scouting points to scout / group demo.

It's just an idea, feel free to dsicuss about how it will work.

Maybe just let active managers draft first, then from what is left bot teams draft. Therefore, countries don't lose their top potential players to bots.

Draft picks used to smaller/weaker teams get a potential star to their roster so they can improve somehow. Usually bots are the last teams in league so they get first picks.. So best teams in the league could easily buy this picks, as these teams usually have more money than mid teams. So not only team gets a full promotion , a lot of money and etc after the wining the league , that team would get a first pick in the draft.. Nonsense.. Better idea would be to skip bot teams in the draft and give them last undrafted players..

Just an observation. For new teams in small nations, you are doomed to bankruptcy unless you know that you have to invest in arena, because of the salary floor. If you start as a casual player, or does not invest heavily with time and effort to getting up to par with all of the aspects (especially the economics) quickly the approx 171.000 salary floor can hit very hard. So if you don't know that you have to focus almost only on arena for 3-4 months, we are excluding new managers. There is no room to play around and get to know the different aspects of the game.

The economics page and your team vs league average does not reflect the situation for the first 16 weeks, and there is no indicator of how long time you have left. I wish there were some kind of countdown mechanism.

I am not saying this because I want an easier time in my micro nation wonderworld. I am trying to describe the experience new inexperienced managers face when they have to start in div II. Since it will take some time before a possible/probable merge, is there some other way to help keep the managers that sign up? I don't have the solution ready, but I see the problem, which may in part be keeping micronation from growing.
