Good! I have been thinking and I consider my proposal would be workable and fair. That PO matches automatically be increased to double the ticket prices. For example, do the calculations in your specific case (USA III.9 / Big 8)

Arena 1st Big 8 http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/23002/arena.aspx
Arena 4th Big 8 http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/23486/arena.aspx

If
Total Revenue At home 1st Big 8 = 285250$
Total Revenue At home 4th Big 8 = 179210$

According to the rules
The revenue from ticket sales to playoff and relegation games is split: 2/3 for the home team and 1/3 for the visitors.

see in PO game 

Proposal Actual	Seat	Arena 1st Big 8
24$	12$	12000	Bleachers
110$	55$	1250	Lower Tier
300$	150$	350	Courtside Seats
2000$	1000$	20	Luxury Boxes
-	-	13620	Total
288000$	144000$	-	Bleachers revenue
137500$	68750$	-	Lower Tier revenue
105000$	52500$	-	Courtside Seats revenue
40000$	20000$	-	Luxury Boxes revenue
-	285250$	-	Total Revenue 100 %
380333$	190167$	-	Revenue PO 1st Big 8 (2/3)
190167$	95083$	-	Revenue PO 4th Big 8 (1/3)


Then
Proposal
PO Profit 1st Big 8 (Sugesstion - At home) = (380333$ - 285250$) = 95083$
PO Profit 4th Big 8 (Sugesstion - At home) = (190167$ - 179210$) = 10957$

I think this is better than the current losses
Actually
PO Profit 1st Big 8 (Actual - At home) = (190167$ - 285250$) = -95083$
PO Profit 4th Big 8 (Actual - At home) = (95083$ - 179210$) = -84127$

you forgot in the actual system the half home game in it, he get extra. Also the next season income, which makes him already earn more money then the fiifth placed team.

I also suppose there is an equity issue if you are lucky enough to play in a bigger arena on the road than other teams. The easiest approach is probably just to extend the no salaries rule to all teams when the playoffs start and keep the current revenue splits for the playoff and regulation games. That makes 5th place a disadvantage financially compared to 6th and 7th, but you don't have to worry about relegating so it is a fair trade in my mind.

i think if you freeze the salarys for all then also freeze the income, cause the bonus isn't that low you get enxt season.

But freezed salares would lead to salaries monster with short term contracts on the teams, since no salary means actually no monster even when they loose money when they sell them again after the play offs.

Excellent point on the salary monster playoff rental. I suppose this points to the need to charge all teams to pay salaries if they are playing games that week, but tweaking what the teams receive for income during the playoffs. Maybe something similar to the cup format that you get a flat amount, only differences being it scales on based on division and both teams get something win or lose, with the home team getting more.

@GM-CrazyEye
but if the bb are right, if we raise the po income the profit the succesfull team is much bigger then the income from the bottom teams which result that you could defend your top spot easily.

Yes, but remember that the successful team of third division probably has significant disadvantages with respect to the second division to which it aspires. For their part it is logical that teams less sporting and economic are struggling should be affected in any format, maybe to descend...

Usually teams leaders in the league have the largest stadium.

Thinking outside the box here how about a TV bonus for the teams in the playoffs? It wouldn't be massive and would be equal for 1st to 4th but any team in the playoffs (and therefore still paying salaries) gets double TV money for that week. It kind of makes sense as well that teams playing extra games on TV would get extra revenue from TV.

The converse idea would be to give no TV money to teams that don't have a game that week, making 5th a little less attractive.

Really good idea for me ;]

But I think TV bonus should be only for 1-4 teams not for those from 6-7 beacuse 5th place should be still better than 6-7.

To be honest I am getting tired with all those small tweaks here and there and at the end of the day it does not improve the game at all and we have to start over with small tweaks after a couple of seasons.

In my opinion the developers should overthrow the current system and present something completely new.
