i like your point about taking changes seeming to have a theme of restricting our options. i know that any system that is created will be gamed (that is why god created lawyers), but i much preferred the days of more or less presenting the game and then let it evolve, come what may. maybe we missed the boat at a large audience by not focusing on an app, i don't know, but i joined the game when it was peaking at 50,000 (i remember 70,000 for an instant), and i very much enjoyed myself -- now i don't see a future for my team, and without changes, i'm afraid for BB as well.

I agree 100%. When I first started Okobi's training plan, you could get DI starters for 2 million.

he decreasing userbase is probably the biggest factor affecting the economy, but I also think decreasing the amount of free agents was a very poor move. With inflation being so high, any money spent on free agents is taken out of the economy. Decrease the money supply, decrease inflation. This combined with the increase in cash in the market due to Utopia, and increase in the promotion bonus, kinda all helped boost inflation.

If it makes you feel better, when I first started Okobi's training plan, you could get DI starters for 2 million.

If we want to maintain and add to the user base, there needs to be increases in number of trainable players. I think would even go for having any one regardless of position that gets 48+ minutes would get training.

To me, you hit the nail right on the head. Utopia is what really did it. Inject cash from every new team and the amount of new teams needing players caused demand for players to skyrocket. I'm also bitter because last season, free agency robbed us of two 34 year olds, 196k Gary Acker (24733336) and 114k Teddy Hills (24738358). No reason for them being removed from the game.

I'll say it until I die - Utopia teams should have come with a separate transfer market where they are only allowed to buy Utopian players.

Agreed. I hated the Utopia idea, and still do. Heck, like most Utopian managers, I'm basically paying for Utopia to farm NT players -- it's ridiculous. Utopia farming has effected the value of trainers/staff as well. Recently, a lvl 7 trainer was purchased for 7m by a utopian with two national trainees and team full of scrubs.
