Im not disagreeing with your numbers / Im just going to say in china basketball is very huge, brazil as well.. I don't know about India and the other one.

In china/brazil usa(nba) and basketball overall very good effect on the youth. Its huge there a lot good players from china and brazil have made the nba . Basketball is huge, I can the training on the players in BB for china and I can tell they are serious about BB. So to me. yes they need to capture the Chinese interests also brazils. As far internet I think your right.


But From my seeing BB don't have the marketing skills and want the user's to try to expand it with word of mouth. MY whole thing is if that person does, it a lot of work to keep that community active and alive. Me personally they should get with that times. Create a twitch tv channel which is free, Its online gaming and gaming network . it the right avenue for BB. 1-2 times a week they can have real people come on and talk BB and certain games aspects. Tell and show managers how to play it , tell/talk about training.

Also Get a twitter account. Its not hard to do. My whole thing they had 50k users with no real marketing or no real ads no real outlet to the world beyond this site. Image what that can do if they actually had some self exposure. Thats my point in nut shell. I dnt think the app is a golden ticket, its part of that ticket

Its live a audience on twitch tv an twitter. Thats what they need in a way. They need someone to spice it up a they broadcast a well/

1300 Utopia teams equal $65.000.

How you came up with this amount?


Just an educated guess, I estimate we have at least as many supporters as second team owners. That would make like $50 per team.

Yeah whatever - 13k is not enough for an app - supporter money goes to charity too. If you outsource coding the app, you have to consider all the codemonkeys out there taking at least $500 per hour - definitely impossible to get it done. Just to compare the Buzzer-Manager site probably cost a couple of million. EASYLY.

As long as all the energy is wasted to tweak the engine, any further discussion is beyond useless anyways.

I believe the rate is really acceptable right now.

But if the BB gods wants to increase the number of user again, I can only think of one thing..

IMPROVE THE GRAPHICS of the game, specially the play by play :)

Youre right! we need to see the same game! but in a different way... They need to look around to all the possibilities, they need to do a big effort that can take this to the top again!... PLEASE EXPLORE THE MOBILE WORLD!... even an app that just let you see your team match..!

People are always keen on telling us how many people are leaving every week, and that whoever is last out should turn out the lights.

BB has more users than last week. Anyone else notice that? It probably doesn't mean anything, its just one week. But hey, its better than a negative isn't it?

Well, if there is an ad campaign running you should expect that to happen.

The more interesting thing would be to know if those are empty numbers or if those people will stay. With the current state of the game I'd expect they will leave again.
