Anyway, my point is, this Utopia thing shouldn't interfere with ordinary BB teams.

BBs should simply make Utopian players invisible on the transfer market for regular teams, and regular players invisible for Utopian teams.

That way, common users wouldn't be affected with this feature. Utopians can do whatever they want, I can simply pretend they don't exist, just like the Private leagues currently.

It would work just like the separate server, which people most likely had in mind, when they originally started proposing it(in the second team discussion thread). I really doubt anyone had fictional 99th country in mind.

It seems like they are gonna make the Utopian country and nationalities regardless at this point.

Some ideas/pointers to help you accept it~

The teams~ IMO There are already hundreds of users with 2nd teams. There are already hundreds of users with multiple teams in multiple nations. No this isn't the way it should be but it can't really be helped. You can pretend they aren't there, they can pretend you aren't there. So if you really must, pretend the Utopia isn't there...once its there...LOL

International leagues/teams/organizations~ These already exist for many sports in the world. Pretend its like the NBA or NBDL (which are connected) where they actually have Canadian teams and US teams all in the same leagues etc. together..Oh the horror!!! LOL. Europeans can give some examples of the same...Or Africa etc. So just think Utopia is not some fantasy country, its just representing an international league where all the other BB leagues are not...which is actually the unrealistic part....

The players~ What about the complete and utter lack of representation of like...over 1/2 the actual countries in the world in BB? What about the fact that we have thousands and thousands of pro Chinese, Spanish, Italian etc. players...but very few (in comparison) South Americans and even fewer Africans. So just pretend the Utopia players hail from otherwise unrepresented/underrepresented nations. That is what I am going to do.

Do you need tester/developer/others for free?

BB-Marin has my name for Dev's, but he explains (3times) that DigitalFieldTheory isn't hiring. I propose for free, but... answer is the same!

and, please, can you answer/told to BB-Marin or others to answer to my post?

(255435.12)

I will clarify my doubts, we have less than a month to decide to use that 10$

Hiring is not an option at the moment, as I already explained. Thanks for the offer though, but the situation hasn't changed.
Also, you must understand our caution with giving access to our code and/or database to people, since we had very bad experiences in the past.
EDIT: Although that's not the only reason why we're not hiring.

@everyone: Your comments/criticisms/suggestions are all being read and taken into account. We might decide to change some of the features of the "Utopia" league if it seems that the change would improve the feature during the implementation and testing process, just as we said in the newspost, so your input will be taken into account. That said, it will take for some very compelling arguments to change our initial plan.

Come on, guys, this utpia idea is really bad.. Why do we need a fictional country? How is that fun? I love this game, but it is becoming very complex and unrealistic..
I play this game for a long time now and got familiar with all the new features of the game (like staff system, now GDP and etc) step by step, i got time to understand them, but will the new users be interested in such game and can understand those features quite quickly until this game seems unrelistic complex to them.. And now the Utopia.. If I signed for the game after the next offseason and saw imaginary nations, I don't think I would play the game any more..
Maybe Utopia should be Mars, all players would be green.. That would be really cool, wouldn't it? And there should be not three point line, but four point line, the game would be balanced with inside and outside tactics.. Well this paragraph was a joke.. :)
And what about the new users after the 10 seasons.. Will there be another Utopia, so they would have a chance like we have now? Because after 10 seasons (or later) the Utopia will be like Spain..
Well, thats just my opinion..
Sorry for my English..

Yep, i read what is written in news, otherwise i can't write there:)

This answer is positive and proactive, but doesn't clear my doubts.

I "moved" puntual questions, which can be resumed in these:

-don't you think (naturally, you is common intended) that 2nd team, as "somewhat exclusive", classified supporters in a 2nd level exclusivity and 2nd team at the top? and the cost issue underlines that: for 10$ i can (may, is better) double my fun eternally, but with 40$ i can add some useful but not so important things, for just one year! I repeat, i love BB, but this appears, IMO, like Bill Gates who's in front of a church asking people some pennies despite having more profits from his main brand. Yep, this is an Hyperbole, but it's my idea, and still nobody has cleared it from my mind.

-Don't you think that 2nd team supporter for free is a thing of "sop"?

-this is personal feeling: how can, a people who offers himself directly to help, believe in last one sentence?


After all, i hope these sentences are understand as constructive criticism...
