Hey man, sorry about the late reply.
There are definitely a few ways to win in this game, I've seen a team full of 35 year olds win div II and III before so never say never. However it's recommended that you have at least 2 trainees at all times with a level 5 trainer, you don't have to train NT players or anything just make sure you've got people improving.

If you're not trying to win this season I think its best to get your roster as close to the $75,000 salary cap as possible without selling off your trainees. This should allow you to save up for the next season when you want to be competitive, it's a hit and miss game to be honest. A bad decision here could see you having to tank and save cash for a few seasons, it was definitely the case for me with my previous team.

Anyway if you have any more specific questions I wouldn't mind giving you a hand, just BB-mail me in the future.

Hey, no problem.
Okay, well I have three trainee big men at the moment and that's all going well. I will need to get the money for a better trainer.

I think Ive decided to have a crack at it now Ive spent the last couple of seasons in this league and spent the money on a new group of guys so why not aha we'll see how it goes should be a bit of fun.

Thanks a lot man, will definitely mail you if i need a hand.

Total Player Salaries: $ 77 555
Player Salaries Floor: $ 77 396

Is this okay for player salary expenditure? I didn't know the rule of trying to keep to 75k to save up but just limited the salary I could spend on each individual player. I did not think I would be competitive this season. My arena needs many expansions as well >.<

Yep that's pretty spot on.
Are you training any of your players? Do you have a superior/advanced trainer?

I have 3 big trainees (ages 21,20,19); one being my starting C, backup c/pf and starting PF. I only have an advanced (4) trainer because I heard the difference is 5% per level and at the moment I don't think I'm ready for the increased salary for 5%.

I am considering keeping 2 of my trainees and permanent members of the team and sell 1 and change my training. No real strategic reasoning.. just want to train different types of players >.<

Hey everyone. Hope you've enjoyed the season thus far. No we get into the good stuff. It might not be much of a competitive finals tho from where im looking. Wonder if anyones going to make any last buys to top up their team in the hope of promotion.

If not, then id have to think Hammerheads are looking pretty nice. I reckon they'd still have at least $750k after their last sale. However with a team salary of close to 200k, and a Div 3 prominent PG, and 3 others with a salary more than my highest they probably aint gonna need it.

The only other I can see taking it to him is Miracles, however with a recent 12 point loss at home I put his chances at low also. However after not selling much this season, and a few purchases, he may struggle. Im not even going to think about promotion, after my 34 point loss at home to miracles a few days ago. Lets just hope he forgets to put in a lineup again.

Oh and don't forget that Miracles team salary is like 100k less than Hammerheads.

You then have a look at that the Big 8 looking a bit stronger at the top end, and I think its surely Hamerheads to lose.

Good luck to everyone that made it, and the same to those fighting for promotion. Ill be def seeing everyone back here in a few weeks, cause I aint going no where

I don't have much of a chance against Hammerheads, just keen to have a positive season next season and build up my arena more.

Playoff Crunch Time is essentially "Normal" in the playoffs. Playoff normal has the same effect as Take it Easy with enthusiasm.
I would have Playoff Crunch Timed you too, no point doing that well in the season only to lose in the semi!
