Hello,
want to share my experience to understand if maxed arena can lead to better income then a 21-22k arena.

I just got promoted to max series in italy. I have pr lv 2.

First game (overall fans happiness 4 balls)

fans attendance :8695 9857 328 30 18910
prices 20 27 200 1000
total gain 535k

second game (total happiness 4.5 balls). Changed prices
fans attendance : 11765 9313 500 48 21626
prices 16 27 150 750

total gain 550k

now i'm a bit surprised by two things.
1) if LT are calculated before bleachers why i've seen such a decrease in att. from 9857 to 9313.
2) the top team of my country earn 588k. He has won last year serie A, it's possible to reach this value? i've seen people able to reach 600k (even 620k sometimes).

Any suggestions on this data? i want to try to set the values equal to the top team to see how much i gain in comparison.

I earned 611k from last game. I was champion last year.

Attendance: 16261 3041 406 38 19746
Prices: 20-55-200-1000

Maybe I can earn 630-640k, if 500 more people bought lower tier.

I also was champion two seasons ago and my highest income was 607k that year.

Ok thanks, so basically aiming for 600k it's almost impossible for new promoted teams.

Just linking back to an earlier conversation about cap on seats being 20k. I over built my stadium before I really understood the game, but with lower prices I can easily sell 22k to 23k in a regular league match in Div 2. But you make more selling around 18k from my experience with higher prices

My current Arena setup:

16,900 Bleachers at $6
5000 Lower Tier at $18
500 Courtside at $81
50 Box Seat at $425


Over the past 10 games I average about selling around 15,000 bleachers, 4,300 Lower Tier, 430 Courtside and 42 Box seats. I'm just wondering if anything stands out, as to making a change or adjustment? Is this fairly efficient? Also, are the Buzzer Manager arena tool recommendations a good thing to follow? Thank you.

Think about your prices, for example:

15.000 x 6 = 90.000
12.000 x 8 = 96.000

I depends on winning/loosing streaks, national or homegrown players, PR-manager etc.

update: got a game with 572k but i sold out all LT so there was maybe a little margin?
this was without either TV or rival matches done so i think maybe reaching 600k is not impossible but you need to never lose a game and i already lost 2 games so i don't think i'll reach 600K this season.

Been reading through this thread and realized some people pointed out that its not normal to get above 21k fans for a normal team.

I do know of a team which basically draws above 21k fans every game, even in cup matches against bots: (107183)

He has a 28k seat arena. But his highest attendance after his last price change just earned him $387k, which seems to be relatively low for a div I team. He's made the playoffs 7 seasons in a row but is currently lying 6th place in his conference with a 2-4 game record, so frankly speaking I think it might be possible to bump up your attendance to 25k maybe? The drawback might be lower revenue.

That said I just realized that I go with a similar ratio to the 15k bleacher 5k lower tier (I have 6k tho) as well. Can't remember how I came up with it tho.
