NTs can be sabotaged, promoted teams are under high pressure to buy players as soon as possible, or they might fall behind in GS, replacing an injured player becomes somewhat useless...


Really? How exactly is this change going to lead to more sabotage -- wouldn't it just be easier to have one guy play the NT player 48 minutes a game, three times a week rather than get together a ring of people to trade NT players on the TL back and forth so they keep dropping in GS?

The problem for NT coaches is they can threaten all they want, but they won't fire the player in the middle of the season because they lose enthusiasm. They can however threaten at the beginning of the season. What is stopping the manager from selling the player two weeks after he promised he will retain him until end of the season?


they will threaten because it is just better than doing nothing. maybe he will be useless, maybe not (imagine a coach who is also a GM: he can frighten many newbies). but you should focus on the effect on management of nt coach. be the best nt coach in the tournament will be neither sufficient nor necessary. Be the luckiest will.

Please, expand on that.


"Hey, I'm Perpete and I'm coach of Tudduland National Team. I called your player because he is the strongest we have. Now, if you try to sell him I will be forced to punish you by TPA/ BAN."

No matter if GM can o cannot. Many newbies can be scared and obey: better not to risk.

That's the limit case, also nt coach non GM can threaten newbies, taking advantage of their inexperience.

Well, the GS hit doesn't change a thing. They could threaten before, they could threaten after. As efficient the threatens can be, I don't see how this can change from before.

As for a GM threatening someone to punish him. He can try. This would be a bad idea. There is spam report for anything and one spam report of this kind against a GM and he will stop being a GM immediatly.

So please, no need to say that GMs are evil dark lord.


No, now they could threaten more than before. Threatening TPA can be only if a player is sold. And a sold player reduces his own game shape.

And in my hypotesis they will use it only to unexperienced users, which ignore about spam report and so on, and even if they know that they prefer not to risk. Anyway it was just a bracket example. No reason to continue on this topic.

Yeah, the more I think about it the more I agree that a slight enthusiasm hit would be a better option as well.
