you need to throw a league game or the cup now.
It's always been like that for the majority of people training. Of course in D2 nowadays you can probably get away with 20yo trainees and try to win when they play.

unless they are stupid enough to try to play legit in a world of cheaters and just watch from the outside as a fan-boy
>>me!?<<

NT will alwyas be shit who cares. NON-issue for mergers. NTs already sucked balls for all micro nations. They still have a superior chance for NT players on their team, their teams will still suck balls, it will still require cheating to change that.
South Africa did have some users involved with the national teams. It stands to reason that if instead of 12 they were, say, 30 they could try to compete at least at the U21 level. Problem is: if the chance of that happening was very low before the merger now it's objectively much lower. I'm not sure what the fun is in a) coaching and b) playing against micronation NTs. If they toss some trainees to FA someone will pick them up hoping they can train them to play in the NT.

Since you had NT players in the past I'm sure you know the contribution to Merchandising is big. That alone is a good reason to balance the draft in micronations. In a competitive league the bump to Merchandising will be much more significant than in bot leagues.

Basically now the talent that 1 african user will draft on average is similar to other countries, while before it was much higher. If they decide to add extra talent for micros via FA, good! I don't even dislike the idea. But your continued claim that the merge lead to unfairness in the draft is just wrong.
Man it not hard to understand, but as Gully said you clearly have a knack for building strawmen and misrepresent other people's opinions.

Now I will repeat one last time:
USERS: NOBODY said it's unfair for the USERS. For them as USERS it's absolutely fine and I agree that now they are more in line with the rest of the BB world.

NATIONS: PROBLEM! There are fewer trainable players because the announcers and benchwarmers will not go to bots. Since these NATIONS only have a handful of users, then the Devs should help said NATIONS by making 3, 4, 5, whatever, players drafted by bots into FA. So whoever gets them, even if he's from Germany, will unwittingly help those NATIONS to maintain a reasonable bottom level. Users who want to help their NATION can purchase those FA with their main team or Utopia team and train.

The unfairness is not between USERS, the unfairness is between NATIONS and even more so between micronations which have been merged and micros which have not been. And for those who have been merged, if nothing is done, it might make more sense to scrap NTs altogether, but I'm not sure anyone wants that. Do you want that? Do you not enjoy training and being involved with your NT and U21? Why would you want to make it harder for other to enjoy the same thing?

You don't understand what I've said, and I'm not going to waste time telling you why you're wrong, when my original posts say it. However:

This should be temporary as other merges follow.

One: We don't know if there will be other mergers, or which countries would be included or excluded.
Two: No, this won't be temporary, in fact each merger will make things worse as the competition among NTs will be further diluted.

And luckily African NTs mainly compete with each other, so everyone there has the same conditions.

Again, I pointed out that during consolations they compete far more widely than just with other African NTs. But even without that your point its irrelevant. If one African country was able to dominate a draft, which conceivably they could by tanking, then that country would be able to dominate. I'm not sure that's the ideal world that the BBs are trying to create for African managers.

Sigh I can't explain it simpler than I did. Since you act like a baby you getting addressed appropriately caps and all.

You keep arguing against imaginary friends or you simply are not able to understand what everyone is telling you. Personally I don't care.

I got it that that's your point. But how likely is that to happen? And it would need to happen over several years in a row to give a country a real advantage.

I don't think its just likely, with more mergers its an inevitability.
