Why would you need to do a reset of all teams just to make an app? I fail to see the logic there.


i read somewhere that one of the main problems of making a BB app was to adapt the current database to the new code required by an app(since the original one has been changed by several people and it seems to be in a somewhat messy situation).

so why not clean up the code while adapting it to an app and, if the database doesn't work with it, well, let's restart the app from scratch, new teams, new players, new economy, same challenges, same fun, lots and lots of managers more.

btw, the old web-based BB could continue to exist, funded by the loads of cash the app will generate!

Two BB's!!! Running concurrently? That would be really crazy. However, starting all over would be kind of fun. I'd go homegrown again like my Utopia team. I would like to keep the current BB going as well, though.

That would be a nightmare. Cannibalizing your own userbase, is the worst idea - saw this happen in another game, that went from 10k users to less than 500 in two similar versions.

But then again, such a change would be so buzzerbeateresque. Looking forward to it.

Utopia II would be a silly name. Lets call it Dystopia instead!
