To be honest I doubt the game will ever shut down - hopefully. Maybe the "ongoing development" will stop one day, but sustaining the site should (hopefully) not be the problem.

I really don't think that's the type of app that people are asking for though. A separate app game that is.
What they want is an app version of this game that you can use to manage everything from setting lineups to rrading/posting on the forums.
And the problem they say they have with letting other people do it is that they don't want other people get their hands on the actual GE code so that they may leak it.


Yep...and watching games live would be nice too...

I wonder what level the game would need to drop to in order to shut down completely?

I have easily played this longer and more than any other game and would be very bummed if it were to go away. I have become quite attached to my team.

Others have stated this as well but the big struggle with new players is that it takes a while to get a team going and most people are not that patient. To keep new players they may need to up the starting amount of money that new players get.


BB is the online equivalent of fight club.....and you know the first rule about fight club. Assimilating new players into the game is the key... And the key is communication.... I think a open mentoring errr meddling program needs to be in place where every day there needs to be a list of all the new players and beside that a list of those who send out a helping hand to guide them.

If the BBs somehow made Multi-ng possible, but not trading between teams, similar to having your team and a utopia t.I wonder how many "users" we would balloon to? Would Khenry then have over 1600+ teams again to set that record, and roundabout break the record for most players again?

We would see a very big expansion in the short term and a very steep decline long term.

A second team looked much more fun than it really is. I'll most likely won't extend my Utopia team, and many users have quit there, so...

I would go for 69 teams because it is the holidays and I'm in a giving mood.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2).
