Never played HT, but I'm pretty sure there's more people over there, right?

In BB terms, which is the game we are playing here, it is big.

As to having to think about solutions, that's fine, and I know it was a panic change that was made. But panic or not-panic, there were better alternatives and the problems in this one were repeatedly pointed out already. That's all I'm saying.

Anyway, I think it is more productive to try to focus on how a longterm solution would look like. I am sure that everyone, including the BBs, dont think that a panic solution as the one they had to introduce now is good. The current solution offers a good time out in which the community can be constructive and find better solutions for the future.


This is just a temporary system, because the top leagues earns that much money and don't ahve the possibility to waste it in salaries ;) So we will have 2-3 Seasons a handicap like that nowadays, and after it it will hopefully run normal.

The chosen solution on the other hand creates a controvercy, but even if we are a few that are upset with it you must admit that it is still a pretty calm and balanced reaction we are seeing in the forum.

The same can be said for the alternative solution. I don't see too many people protesting the suggestion in this thread, therefore it shouldn't be creating a controversy at all if implemented.

I know that it is temporary, but I actually think it will take more than 2-3 seasons, therefore it would not hurt to have a better system in place in the end of this period.

Why should they protest? It is not like it seem to be in "risk" of being implemented.

Yes it is a lot more, but I was there (arround 2002) when it was about as big as BB is now, and I promiss you, the contovercys where a lot bigger.

Because it's up for the discussion in the thread? No-one really knows whether or not the BBs are monitoring this thread and whether or not they are planning to pick up ideas from it. Maybe the fact that barely anyone seems to be protesting against this suggestion might make them change their mind.

You might be right, but I see it as very unlikely that they would change solution in the near future, and I hope they want. Because, that kind of flip-flopping would defnitely hurt the game in the long run.

At the same time I am sure that they do monitor this thread and they take ideas into consideration for the future. If they dont panic they can later on present a better longterm plan, without risking too much controvercy.
