Midi what ? :))) I know nothing about it, it sounds like something contagious, I am not sure I want to know ;)

So I guess it's private data, I thought it might be public :)

In fact it is public now, because I wrote it ;-)

Did a little checking. How many centers above 150k/wk on the market right now are free agents? 0 out of 66. So while there might possibly be some tenuous link between free agents and plethora of expensive big men, I don't see it.


There seem to be no quality free agents on the market right now. So?

So I disagree that free agents play anything but an insignificant role in the large number of wage monster centers in this game.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

So you were wrong hinting at an obvious correlation between the larger supply of centers and the FA rules.

It was a reply to one of your statements.
You are not following the discussion very closely, are you ? :)

edit : sorry for the echo, beaten to it...

You all know that free agents are put on the market a couple of times a year and sometimes there are no FAs at all on the market. How does that degrade my theory that there were too many FA centers in the past? With the new rule that such players cant be retired their value will drop even more...

Everything is done for equilibrium in this game and then we see 10x more 200k+ players at center than at every other position. How is that something that adds to stability and equilibrium?

Oh well, you finally got a point, there are no FA right now, weekly harvest time hasn't started yet. I think FAs are put on the TL every week, it's probably a typo in your post.

BB is a living dynamic universe. You do as you wish. BB universe should have a life of its own, going whichever direction users lead it. If we all train a lot of centers, there will be a lot of centers in the game. Then a lot of us sniffing the opportunity will train a lot of guards. There will always be imbalances at one point, the aim is not to prevent it, it is impossible or would be too restrictive, the aim is that the system is coherent enough that imbalances correct themselves with time. An outside intervention is required only in the case of imbalances endangering the system. Not the case at the moment. Some big Cs are going for cheap, that itself is the first correction.

When more players have access to these players, it becomes more stable and equal. We can't all play in small country's were revenue just falls out of the sky on us.
