Well, you can always put him back on the market.

Though, "buying" your own player resets the calculator for the amount of days the player has been with your team. This causes you to lose some % of the eventual transfer price

Hello Guiguits,
I know the popup existance (that I consciously disabled) but in my opinion we should have two types:
- The existing one for "legit" bids with "dont aks again" checkbox
- And a new specific one for own bids (in case it makes sense to have this option availabe - I don't support that)

Hi mbbayless,

yes, the problem is that! :| If nobody makes a proposal I will be triple harmed:
- 3% of 150k
plus
- reset days in my team and I think it may affect merchandising and sponsors
plus
- 60% tax if I put him on market again

wonderful!

Hello Saimionas,

Thank you for your opinion it added a lot to what I reported.
I don't have your your financial freedom but I'm happy for you!

Thanks for sharing you episode and I so sad to hear that no one could helped fixing that.
In my case I don't even know how it whappened, I don't know if I double typed "Enter" key, if it was a refresh bug or something else... I just know that it was immediatly after I listed the player.

Hello eumariogomes,

After I read your message I completely agree with you.

Doesn't make any sense that this is possible to happen, either if it is to manipulate the market or to be able to change someone's mind to keep the player, just because this doesn't approach to a real life basketball team management situation (in case this is the purpose of BuzzerBeater).

As for someone to be able to keep the player after putting him on the market list, in my opinion it would be better if that page had a button "Take player of the market" (example). With this, it could be possible to take the player from the market, you wouldn't lose any money that you bid on him and your problem would be solved.


Best regards,
Barrote.

Hi Barrote,

Actually I liked your point. I also though about another thing that can add a little robustness to your proposal. I think that besides the button it makes sense to create some penalty to any user that want to press that button.

When we sell a player we receive only XX% of total value 'cause we must pay taxes. So, if that button ever exists I think it's fare that we got charged with that tax percentage:

Example:
I set on market "Player X" and the last bid was $1 000 000
I will receive 97% and I will pay 3% of that value
So, in case I pressed that button "Take player of the market" I should be charged with 3% of $1M

Note: and of course, we must understand that %'s change according the actual rules.
