Maybe 3 league games per week, but no more than that. BB should stay slow paced.

I just wish there was a way for the new managers to be able to jump right into Buzzerbeater and understand why its a great game

There are a lot of people that enjoy it right from the start. Sure some of them don't get it or enjoy it right off the bat, but that is to be expected. I think adding more games would almost overwhelm them and think that BB is too complicated, especially with the addition of the overextension tax and GDP this season. Less games per week allows them to take a breather and get on the forums and ask questions, in between their games in order to form a better understanding. That is hard to do if they have so many league games.

5) Interaction with tactics during the game
BB games are calculated during the 15 minutes before the game (the one were you can't anymore change your tactics). After that, it's just a replay. Interacting during game would need a totally new GE and it's also against the idea that people do not need to be connected all the time to win. On the opposing side, we have people asking for one or two more games a week. To be good, you would have to be connected every evening of the week. Not even talking about the last two weeks who were holidays with people being with their family.


That's my answer to you on Global. So you are one of those user who want a game every day and furthermore you want to give advantages to those connected during those games. It's OK for some people, but most of us (yeah even me) do not want to be connected every evening on BB.


Wow. Didn't even think of it that way lol. I was not realizing that you would have to go on everyday. I guess I just randomly ranted lol. I don't think this is a good idea anymore lol

Maybe one thing that could happen is that you could pre set when to call a timeout. For example, if the opposing team goes on a 9-0 run, a timeout would be called automatically and the coach will tell the players to, ultimately stop the run. Another example, it a team misses 4 or 5 consecutive threes, a timeout would be called to tell the guys- Take less threes.

This would be preset and would make a difference.
Any chance that could work?

Nah, I would not like to see that implemented. The thought of having 60 games per 2-3 months gives me a headache, it's just too fast and also advantages users, who spend all their free time in BB. Better leave it as it is:)

Yep. I agree now. I think I was just kind of making outrageous suggestions because I was alarmed today when I saw 30000 members. That's all lol

Well you are right, BB really needs some drastic change, otherwise decrease in numbers will continue, and game will die, sooner or later. Just, my opinion is that this suggestion is not that drastic change that we need, all the reasons are already mentioned before:)
