Not even close. Last season there were only 8 superstar or better players in our draft, that was for all three rounds. that is too few in my opinion.

Compared to that we use to have in BBBL, that's a very good draft! Seriously since I'm in D.I the draft has always been a joke. Even the first draft pick has always been a joke, except one or 2 times in 25 seasons.

Example the last first round draft (age - potential):

19 - 7
18 - 4
18 - 1
18 - 5
18 - 4
18 - 2
19 - 5
19 - 5
18 - 3
19 - 2
19 - 3
18 - 5
18 - 6
18 - 5
19 - 6
18 - 5

...


This is pretty bad, but clearly no one thoroughly scouted a lot of these choices as they would have seen one or two star potential ratings and not put them so high in their order. Or, they only scouted a couple of players and hoped no one picked them. There could be higher potential players that went in the later rounds.

One example: new teams get an 18 yo Allstar player to have a franchise player to work with. The guy I got on my Utopia team is worth around 1k, I got four better guys for 1k. Improvement needed.

New teams start with a season long losing streak. New users need success moments. Improvement needed.


Few things on that will be discussed on the news released next week.

so where is it?


Last time I checked my calendar, we were Sunday.

Don't expect it for Monday either by the way.


Another classic BB feature. Announce, delay, postpone. Change this.

Where is the delay? Next week is from monday till sunday. If you don't see the news next sunday you can talk about a delay, but not because you haven't seen them yet.

Are you sure the global user base week starts on sunday? An even if we agree that BB world should start its weeks on Sunday, then we would have to agree that the week should end on saturday, so news have not been delayed yet (which is the main point here)

hey, why did you delete my post?

we're taught in grade school that a week starts on a Sunday


Not everyone was taught that. Looking it up online, it is clear that the start of the week is widely considered both Monday and Sunday by various parties.

Besides, Perpete said that news would be 'sent out next week' in a post he wrote yesterday.
I read that to be sometime in the coming week.

The fact they didn't post it today is not part of some epic BB conspiracy.
Probably just folks wanting to enjoy the weekend with their families.
