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.

as a new user who started about a year ago, when the usercount already was crazy low. i can now proudly announce that i sticked to the game. the activity seemed still better than in other basketballmanagers (one of them died recently) and i liked the player faces i guess.

at the beginning some things would have been nice:

- a better tutorial (i didn't like the manager checklist)
- a few testgames against bots. hattrick has this option: you can have three testgames any time you want against a bot in your first week. they work like a private league game (no injuries, minutes)
- bots that play as if they had some kind of AI, maybe you could use the LCD mechanics for botteams?
- maybe some tips sent per mail. like: don't buy expensive players on the market, approach the game patiently, take your time to spread the starting money, a very basic guide to training, balanced players are nice, etc. (maybe a message per day for a week with newbie tips.)
- maybe an up to date offside/video tutorial that explains some strategies for beginners (if i have some time i will continue working on this one)


/edit: actually i will make a suggestionthread with these things as soon as i have some free time
