5 days i've spent trying to unload almost 70k at "10-50K" selling 18 year old PA potential guards, and 5 days I have been outbid on every single one. Is it too much to ask to just land 1?


What are you even talking about...... Its the beginning of the season when 18yos are worth more. By the way, I nabbed 1 for 15K.

The revenue in small natoin has a glass ceiling . WE can never have the TV or arena money that big nations do, we are at about DII or DIII even sometimes comparative revenue of big nation...depending on nation size. So basically you have like if its a 6 user nation then their league is about as competitive as USA DV but their income is about USA DIII, they can utilize to create surplus but they can basically never be anything in B3 because they don't have the income to maintain the players. Literally DI in large nation can be making around 100k more a week on average.

I agree that its imbalanced, but its not the same issue.


I can tell you right now this is BS. How do I know. Malice is the 1 that brought me here. He started 1 month before me. Even being in D.II his entire career, he's had the luxury of making at least 3x, what I have. So 1 month and a 3 division head start should be worth 3x capital gains? Thats not the same to D.III in the US.

Also you make this accusation 'we'll never give up the advantage' Small nation users have been lobbying ot be merged or made into larger nations forever, me especially. IT falls on def ears. IT is the BBs that wont let us play in larger nation, so take your empty accussation turn it sideways, and ask the rock what to do with it next. You are just being silly wehn you say that.

False accusation. No its not. If it were, all income in the game would be equal. Sure some users, including yourself, may want to be part of larger nations, like I said, if everyone did, then way aren't people lobbing for income equality though out and not just fixing the TL. They don't.

May I ask what exactly your TV revenue is? This way we can compare it to US D.II's, III's, and IV's.

And also I'd like to say your approach to the training then selling issue is a little bit silly, of course you shouldn't be able to buy a player and then sell that player and make money simply off training when compared to how much you payed for him along with salaries. It is when you begin to take into account the fact that the player was playing for you, hopefully winning games, putting fans in the seats and making you money that way that you can see if a player made you money.

And yes I too believe that the price for high potential rookies is outrageous but in my opinion a lot of that has to do with the lure of NT glory.

there's very little chance for NT glory for a perrennial all star rooke in the USA yet they can be outrageous priced too.

U21 Still Counts!!!! But seriously if it's under 100k it's not too bad.

"The revenue in small natoin has a glass ceiling . WE can never have the TV or arena money that big nations do, we are at about DII or DIII even sometimes comparative revenue of big nation...depending on nation size" -Wolph

For reference here is a list of US TV revenue(NBBA was at like 220k last season, not sure on this season)

I'd say you are safely above any D.III revenue and most likely D.II as well, and not just in TV revenue but also in the arena cap and in the ease of having greater merchandising income.

Simple misunderstanding on the training then selling of players, and once again I would say the high prices for young'uns with high potential are the only ones out of line-and that's for the potential glory. Lower potential players, perennial allstar, sometimes even superstars can often be picked up easily enough and if trained properly can in my opinion still be sold for a profit or at least not too great of a loss.

On the FA point I tend to agree with you, they are for the most part unnecessary-though I do support the listing of all players on NTs who go bot.
