The reduction in GS will help, if it comes.

The GS hit won't hurt daytraders if they don't use the players they "daytrade". It would be more efficient to have a hit on the team enthousiasm each time a player is bought/sold.

I really don't believe that the GS hit will change that much the daytrading issue. It's an adjustement towards short term recruitement in Cup and PO games.
No one recruits a 18-19 yo player to make him a key player in a couple of games. The GS hit is not even a matter of fact in those cases.
I still get back to the profit tax, increasing with profit (resell - buy), decreasing with time (between buy-resell).

It might reduce it ever so slightly, but yes.. it won't affect much.

I say put a minimum transfer of x amount of days... like 30/40 days or something.

Add a tax to that and you'd be sweet.



Also, adding 30/40 days to transfers would reduce the "rent a win" concept, which I can't stand. We should be trying to win through superior basketball tactical/management decisions, not buying and selling on the TL.


Just my opinions...

If I remember correctly, battrick had something like this (I think it was a seven week contract). The one thing I'd personally modify if this were to happen here is that there does need to be the ability to free release a player that's purchased to put them on the TL as a free agent, so a newbie doesn't buy a $200k player for a low price and then be doomed to bankruptcy. Of course, making sure they're required to have to pay one week's salary somehow is important, and of course the NT concerns if it follows normal free agency pricing rules would apply.

you must win using all the tools that game gives to you, not only the ones you think are better who knows for what reason ...
Nah, you're wrong. It's a basketball management game, not trading software.

this is a basketball ma nager where everybody trains the same and everybody plays the same ...
Exactly. Reward someone for spending hours looking and memorising players prices and stats, not basketball management tactics.

Good luck!
