I'm not sure what appeal a NT with a 20k PG and a 40k C starter can have to anyone, both people from that nation and opponents. And note that these are not random numbers and there are worse NT teams than the one I used as an example where the average player is around 30k salary.

Would you like to play in a nation where the top prospects are Allstar season after season or where your job as coach is mostly saving untrained players from users signing up and then going bot?

That's probably too late, although it would have been a much better solution.

Sounds good, but if there are people opposing the creation 4 extra players for each nation, I can't see them accepting a solution which will create many more every season. It seems like medium nations like Germany are perfectly happy being in limbo (good, but not good enough to win competitions), as long as micros and smaller nations are prevented from catching up even by a fluke.

To me the more competition there is at any level the better and more fun in the game. The BBs and users can't say (without being hypocritical): we want to merge nations because we think more competition between users in their home league is good, but then make the NT level (and possibly the B3 in the future) even less competitive than it is today. If competition is desirable, it applies to every level, so make sure NTs have at least a decent amount of players to pick from OR remove nations who field d3-d4 caliber starters because they can't get worthy trainees.

I think merging micros by time zone would be a good idea. It's not like South African users have more in common with Tunisian users than Welsh or Moldovan users.

However it would probably be best that Wales get merged with Ireland, Scotland and England and Moldova gets merged with Romania IF there is a solution for the NTs and for keeping the local communities going.
