This game is not about "how your time is flexible".
How many times are you bringing this issue up? Last time I already explained to you how you can bid for a player the max amount you are willing to pay. I also said to you, that an average team, buys a player once a month (the number suggested even less, but we rounded it up for you). Are you saying you can not be online once a month on a specific time? It's not like you have to be able to be online 24/7 to be successful in BB.
Your half time random auction is just iceing on the cake:D Can your suggestions get any worse. First claiming that noone should be able to get "the extreme unfair advantage, that ruins this game and kittens die every time someone buys a player when they should be sleeping" and then suggest something absolutely opposite, where people should get the advantage (if they watch their games live) of bidding on some random 18 year old, bot drafted MVP with great skills that was retired while a human manager took over. Man, you are great!

I need again to clear a common wrong saying here (mistakenly? I'm not sure);

Bidding the MAX price (you agree to pay for that player) means that you pay... the MAX price.
It is not the case for the one who is bidding live.
If it was such a not importrant issue, then live auctions should have been eliminated.
Those who are hiding it, hiding the fact that by that those who has more flexible time pay less than "MAX price", and by that has great advantage at this game.

But that's absolutely not the point of the suggestion, so please everyone, can we stay on topic ? Half time activity.


Well, I actually think it is nice when the 15min pause comes, so there is actually time to do something IRL, maybe grab a sandwich or something, and then come back for the 3rd and 4th quarters.

OK i understand the suggestion now.
I think its a good suggestion! But maybe its a bit overkill? Like using a brick to get into a peanut shell.
Still it is a good idea for half time. I don't think there is much advantage to anyone really.
I think the current bid system does contain some of the elements that you have suggested. But i think this discussion is off topic. We should discuss improvements to the current bid system in another thread.

i would agree on shortening the half time break

how about break down analysis ?



Many users suggest shortening the 15mins, but I wouldn't like that as I believe now what we have gives a nice feeling of 'real', the pause being as long.

New idea, maybe some sort of poll where users (maybe only in that division, level or country) can vote on who they think is going to win (and maybe get a sliding scale based on how big the disparity is). the points are kept track of all year, then the top manager gets...a spot in the 3 point shoot out? a trophy? one week of supporter?
