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.

make messages to other users less restrictive to non-supporters.

Currently the restriction is 1000 characters for a non-supporter. While it makes sense to give supporters tangible benefits for their support of the game, it damages the ability to communicate in game with other managers who might be new to the game. I shouldn't have to direct someone to an offsite or somewhere away from buzzer beater to teach them about buzzer beater in one go, if they so desire my advice. The same issue might also occur with other better managers than myself attempting to do the same thing.

Just think it'd be easier to retain users if this restriction was rethought.

Either remove completely transfer price estimates on players 34+ or change them so they have the same age ranges as younger players, ie 33-34, 35-36 etc

It makes no sense to compare a 36yo to a 33, when the expected decline is different and therefore the value of the player should be different. Sellers are able to put a price at the top end of the expected range and buyers who do not properly understand the market may not realise they're overpaying.

While I understand the concept of caveat emptor, I don't think exploiters should be assisted.

Price estimates could use a overhaul to fine-tune it a bit more.
Every year over 32 should have its own range, since the decline differs.

1When the regular season ends dont' show just MVP, add some new like: season ends rookie(young player) award and add 1 rookie team, after quarter finals 6 man, after semi defensive player and 1 team, finals 1 game and then you add MVP.
2 Make post pre-in-post game interviews if possible. Of course it's not necessary, but if would make a little more fun after a game, and a bigger reason to watch the game
3 i don't know am I dumb or what but can we see other teams coaches, managers etc. If we can't why not let us see them, it's not like after seeing them we can get a huge advantage
4 when the BB3 starts in the teams news show when the games are gonna start cause, you know, it's the biggest tournament in BB

Another smaller change: Sort transfer history by name instead of date. I'd like to be able to see my ROI when i buy/sell players

Transfer history is sortable.

I have minor suggestions:

1. Options for national tournament re-survival: This only applies to first 2~3 rounds, and the criteria is "lost the cup game to the team in higher division". i.e. Top division is not eligible for this option. However, once your team takes this option, you could only receive half of the game money ($50,000 becomes $25,000 only).

2. Players preferable tactics: Some players like look inside; some players like princeton. I would like to have a chance listening to my players. Just like the suggested position (PG, SG, SF, PF and C), this would change after training from time to time; Alternatively, the stats could be sorted out in players' career stats. Let the managers choose which tactics suit me the best.

No that is a bad idea because then the tournemnt would take longer and som d4 teams are actuallyr really good and it might screw things up alot if would make it possible for some d4 teams to in the final 32
