Hi everyone! I have few minor improvement suggestions for BB World! -Page 1/2-

1. Loans for the new managers
The introduction of loans for the new managers (active between 1 and 5 seasons) would help them becoming more competitive. The loan options would be 1, 2 or 5 million (only one active possible), but only if the manager has met the specific criteria (solvency based on revenues). The repayment deadlines should be 2, 3 or 5 seasons, respectfully to the amount of loan taken. It would look like this:

1 million loan - repayment period 2 seasons, seasonal interest 10%, total repayment of 1.2 million, or weekly around 50,000
2 million loan repayment period 3 seasons, seasonal interest 5%, total repayment of 2.3 million, or weekly around 64,000
5 million loan - repayment period 5 seasons, seasonal interest 3%, total repayment of 5.75 million, or weekly around 96,000

In this method of lending money, loans for experienced managers could be also given, to those whose teams are having larger revenues or money in the bank account, but with the important condition that their seasonal interest rates would be far more than these standard ones. And that would be 30-20-10%.

2. Translation of recent game developments
A couple of managers in my country (non-native English speakers) have expressed that there should be a new section in BB Menu or on a national forum where recent game improvements could be listed so that even those users who barely speak English can be fully in track of recent features that BB World offers. IMO, this could ideally be done by the addition of new section of the site where the news and game manual are, or on a national forums. Translation of news only is not enough.

3. Domestic talent subsidies system - "The most complex addition"
The establishment of national treasuries through taxes on weekly revenues is the first step. The taxes would be equal for all, regardless of division. The tax rate is fluctuating, between 0.1% and 1%. The elected national team manager would be obliged to manage the fund in a way to subside all the managers who would train 18-21 year old youngsters, regardless of owner's nationality. That way, managers would be partly compensated for sacrificing team's successes for the good of national teams. Also, the national teams that have good scouting systems and active community are rewarded more. Also, the training of national team players is greatly encouraged.

In case of my country (Serbia), there are 4 leagues (3 active) (the maximum tax rate applied):
I division: 16 teams, average weekly revenues ~700,000 - weekly DTS tax 7,000 (~84,000 per season) - combined 1,344,000 per season
II division: 64 teams, average weekly revenues ~500,000 - weekly DTS tax 5,000 (~60,000 per season) - combined 3,840,000 per season
III division: 256 teams, average weekly revenues ~300,000 - weekly DTS tax 3,000 (~36,000 per season) - combined 9,216,000 per season
IV division: 1,024 teams, of which around 50 are active, average weekly revenues ~150,000 - weekly DTS tax 1,500 (~18,000 per season) - combined 900,000 per season

In total, national treasury in case of Serbia would have: 1,275,000 a week or 15,300,000 per season (all season long maximum tax rate applied)

There is a total of 12 weeks each season when the taxes are collected. The last, 13th week in a off-season, the taxes are not collected.

The tax rate is formed based on the number of players meeting the criteria for getting a two-week subsidies. In the first two weeks, it is always a maximum tax rate of 1%. A list is formed of players under national team manager watch - all players who had at least one pop-up over two weeks, regardless of which skill it is, are added automatically to the list. In case of Serbia, weekly collected DTS taxes (1,275,000 a week, 2,550,000 for subsidies period) are divided by number of players fulfilling the criteria. If there are 200 players under monitoring process that got at least one pop-up, a manager gets 12,750 for one player or a maximum of 38,750 over subsidies period (3 players maximum).

If in a subsidies period (two weeks), this average subsidies amount per player is higher than 20,000, all the managers get a maximum of 20,000. Also, this activates the drop of tax rate by 0.2%, so that in the next period the community is not loaded and being used by the lack of managers training national team players. If this amount in the following period drops below 10,000, all the manager get a minimum of 10,000 per player meeting the criteria. Also, for the following period tax rate goes up by 0.2%. But it can not go below 0.1% and more than 1%.

There should be a control system as well, through criteria fulfilled to get a subsidies:
* First of all, the collected taxes must are spent equally after every SECOND week by the national team manager. In case not, BB clears the account before EVERY THIRD week of financial update to ZERO, i.e. before the next period (next two weeks) of weekly taxes are collected.

* The national team manager who is obliged to manage the fund, is not allowed to send subsidies individually, but in one click to all the mangers whose players have fulfilled the specified criteria - at least one pop-up in TWO weeks.

4. Partial refund to new managers
Every new manager (active between 1 and 5 seasons) could be allowed to have a "partial refund option" for the newly acquired young talents. He could use this option only 3 times and only for the newly acquired players aged 18-21 with at least "superstar potential" for a sum less than 1 million. Once he has acquired the player, he could seek half-the-sum-refund from BB using this option. This way, players would be encouraged to buy good prospects to carry their teams to bright future, but for reasonable price. This way, BB would over the long term subside them with a maximum of 1.5 million.

In total, this is my suggestion for 4 new additions in BB World. I would be happy if at least 3 out of 4 would be implemented as soon as possible. :-D

Why must i wait until the match ends to see how many people have come to the court and total income? I know that at manage my team page it appears the percentage of occupation but it´d be great to see it at match page, as i can see the tactics, etc. Thanks.

Seats you can't see, but during the game I can see my income on the Transfer List. Just by calculating the difference between Current Max. Bid and the Economy page.

Not a big fan though, cause it does the same with cup games and since only the winner gets money, I know if my team will win or not..

Maybe it should be moved to the match page as you suggested, cause I can't resist looking on Thursdays :p

Loan is a bad idea imop...New Managers waste all their money in five minutes usually...Allowing them to spend more would mean let them dying much faster putting on their shoulder a huge debt

What is your suggestion then for helping new managers? Giving 'em money just like that? Or doing nothing and waiting for 20 seasons for them to have competitive teams?

Promotion bonus should be paid when you've won promotion, not when the new leagues are formed.

Transfer history page should have two drop down menus with either dates or season numbers so you see profit/loss between the dates of your choosing.

Hey just a small suggestion that makes life a lot easier.

Have a symbol on the team roster page to indicate players on the transfer list. Thus if you are on a team's roster page its evident which players are on the TL.
