Losing National Flag is unacceptable.
You can merge/group nations, but should let teams keep the flag of the country they are from and same should be true for the players. Players from different counties can play for one national team but keeping their flag on their profile. You can give any NEW flag to the country I'll be placed in, I don't care untill I can keep my flag on my team page. National Flag of one's country is one's identity, one's HISTORY.

Merging micronations would be a huge net positive for the BB community. We have too many nations where do to a lack of competition, an established team can just tank and horde a huge sum of money and just stay in DI. This hoarding affects everyone in the economy. Venomous Scorpions did exactly this on their path to B3 championships.

With that being said, the established teams in these micro D1, they want to keep things the way that they are, so they can exploit an economic situation that a vast majority of teams in BB simply cannot do.

I can understand wanting input from the micronations especially in the over the logistics of the merge and how it will effect national teams/u21, language, culture etc. but I hope in the end that the decision on whether or not to merge micros is made by considering the greater good for all BB users not just the small number of micro users.

I would also support any change that would help micronation communities that have already been established stay together and any change that would make it easier for micronation u21/nts to organize and compete.

Hello,

As Senegal U21 Coach, I am not favor of consolidation project .

In IRL , nations do not combine to block the bigs. I don't see why it will happen on BB .

Coming in Senegal, I'm not pretended to beat China or another big nation. For me, this is what is interesting in a nation like Senegal .

Everything is to be done, and we have a great project .


I think it's important for BB to be present in as much nations in the world !

For me the best thing to do would be to merge the leagues but keep everything else individual to each nation, so micronation leagues work as a 'champions league' where the teams and players keep their flag, NT +u21, original players identities and why not keep micronations cups too to keep identity?

This would keep some identity and community but make the leagues more competitive.

That would be great, anything to keep the identity and community of micronations but also giving them an opportunity for more competition.

If you could tell a bit more about possible pairings of nations and a timeframe when the merger could happen, that might be helpful.

If a seeding was based on WR teams on the rise could experience a disadvantege.

I think it would be fair for to keep everyone in the division that they are in when they merge and almost do an inverse of the first couple of seasons of Utopia to redistribute the teams.
