I'm not arguing this outline of a suggestion you've created, I'm arguing that with the details we've been provided for the changes there's really not enough information to conclude what you have.

Concerns? Yes. But, as I meant to point out in a prior post, there are lots of concerns for my team, but there's little evidence that these concerns are little more then something I should keep in mind when making decisions. I don't know for certain what a players skill cap will be, and even though it could be a major detriment to my future plans, it doesn't mean that is.

As I said my opinion in Finnish thread, this certainly will devide managers according to Arena capacity.

I'm afraid there will be lot of new bots in next season, when not so active managers notice that they can't keep alive their teams without continous positive player trades.

It's really a shame. But... maybe this is the basic intention?

I understand your thinking as well as I understand it from Bush Jr.

Of course you are not worried about the future of BB. You just want us to understand that what ever decision is best for You, is also best for everyone.

That's why I also think this BB will be, at the end, the "international" league between USA and Italy.

Egoistic thinking is NOT always a virtue!


I despise stereotyping and ignorance from foreigners just as much as I do from fellow Americans. Maybe you also know of Dick Cheney, and though he's far from my favorite person, he has a quote that I love to borrow for this moment.


edit: No profanity, please. Thanks.

Ok, sorry!

May I still ask one thing? Those teams which upgrades their league after this season will not get any benefits? Instead they will be penalized more next season than they would have, being played in their previous, lower league. Is this correct?

I am not suggesting different rules for different countries, since this is not necessary at all. Just implement the tax as maintenance per seat. This way you give the chance of small teams to catch up without taxing them for excess income they don't have. This way you're really taxing the source of the income and not taxing teams simply for being in a higher division.
This would have been a much better solution, and I would guess that BB* would agree on that too. However, this solution requires that you act in good time giving people time to adjust, as you will directly single out one group of managers and punnish them for playing the game according to the rules. Naturally they would be very upset with this kind of solution and it would prbably create a great controvercy.

Thus, even if your suggested solution is better on paper, I think it would create too much controvercy and therefore they had to choose another solution.

It's def a good suggestion though, potentially better alternative to their current plan. Maybe it's something the BB's haven't considered. They have made announcements for changes in the past and then after further thinking not implemented them (GS drops for transferred players, for example).

Yes, I also agree that it is a better solution. But, it is to "apply in a rush". They could possibly make some kind of plan to gradual switch from the current panic solution to kozlodoevs solution(TM) and present this as their longterm plan.

I agree all of those above! But isn't it a common practice that BB will make all the changes within two weeks after announcement? Without any possibility to appeal? At least that's how I've felt this.

To be fair, I can't entirely claim credit for this suggestion. Someone posted the suggestion to implement arena maintenance while simultaneously allowing for the possibility to tear down seats. I just thought it makes a lot of sense.

To be honest, the only sensible solution for BB-team is take a Time Out, and resolve these current problems.

It's more than obvious, that this latest solution will make some kind of a chaos between all BB managers.

The current solution is basically a Time Out as i see it.
