I think a big reason the BBs are hesitant to go on a huge advertising campaign is because they've already tried that. Several years ago they went on a huge ad blitz and got up to 60k users and then what happened? All those guys left.

If they invested heavily in advertising again, who's to say the same thing doesn't happen? After all, while they've added some features to help new managers, the game has remained more or less the same plus they have no mobile site or app.

I think with a little bit of work, they could expose the game "stream" through the API and if they did some ambitious manager(s) would be able to write a non-flash game viewer which would go a long way to helping the game be more mobile. As it currently stands, there is enough information available right now outside of the API that I could come close to doing this even without any API changes if I had more time and ambition on my hands.

They could also expose submitting a lineup through the API, but that's more difficult in the sense that the API as it is currently designed is set up to retrieve information and not submit it. So a little extra work would need to be put into ensuring the security that only a team manager can submit for a team.

1) The forum moderators aren't super polished. Sorry guys, and I'm probably going to get in trouble for this, but they've historically not been great at creating or encouraging conversation.


Completely agree, moderators should keep the game funny around forums, not just appearing in bad moments but creating good ones.

If this game sucks so much for you and you have that much of an issue that you are writing in the forums about how you hate this game, why are you still playing?
