Οh boy, you'll be the face and inspiration of season 40 news announcement!

As a new guy I'd say it's simply impossible to find, I've been searching for a game like this forever... but it simply will NOT pop up on a google search (I found BB scrolling through forums). And as far as the actual game goes I think the unrealistic training is a turn off but besides that I love it. It's just absolutely silly to have a guard playing center to work on his inside skills, have to get rid of playing out of position to train

Change something

I'd say change something without anybody asking. Change something without a plan. Change something without listening to advice (and having to covertly revert the changes).

There have been a series of bad decisions, which took from a valid premise or were aimed at addressing a real problem, but did so in the wrong way, usually affecting other aspects of the game because of reasons that were never explained to the userbase and so, many of us concluded that the BBs and EGMs are either not very smart+arrogant, not listening or don't have the technical ability to do certain things. I think it's a combination of the above, but the main issue is that the communication with the staff and the devs is almost nonexistant, so nobody clearly explains decisions in depth and addresses the concerns and if new problems arise is there to listen to what people say.

Communication is something that can be changed, devs also could be changed. Hey maybe Marin has been working for years to redo the whole GE so that he can tweak it more easily and it is more realistic, but he never mentioned it to anyone.

The biggest problem at the moment seems to be so few new users signing up.

I believe we need at least 1000 new users every week for at least a year to get back on track.
Second we need to find out, how many new users stay and what the biggest reasons are they stop.

Without new blood, we are dying!

The BBs should be looking at those figures. Are they? Who knows?

Excellent post. Good points well expressed. Hope the BBs see it.

I agree with you in general, very well put, only one thing.
When it comes to lack of communication, i would be more cautious generalising the blame to the whole spectrum of BBs-EGMs-GMs, at least on certain aspects of it.

It is clear to me that communication is also broken between the staff members themselves.

We've witnessed changes that were unknown to the rest of the staff for seasons and they eventually found out about them alongside the rest of us, while reading the global forum...
We've witnessed changes that were unknown to the rest of the staff and they found out when the whole thing glitched and admission of the changes had to be made in the bugs forum...
We are now witnessing our BUG reports(including those of GMs) taking 4-7 days for an initial response from the BB in charge...

This is the truth no matter how much we try to avoid it by seeking cover behind our finger...

This is why your not the buzzer beater CEO.
