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.


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!

you want a game where you log in on friday to see shapes, and then go off till next friday
Oh, I didn't realise what I wanted. I'm dreadfully sorry!

lol...

not.

No, I don't want to sit on the TL for hours, but hey guess what? I do sit on here for hours communicating with people. I sit on here even longer looking at stats, planning, looking at more stats, calculating... In fact, BB is missing out on many hours of login time by not having enough stats. I go to other sites to look at BB stats because there are more of them and they are laid out better for my viewing.

And, please, don't assume too much. Those who ass-u-me too much... Well (should) you know the rest of that. I don't like the tanking thing either. I'm glad that the BBs have done something about it. Let's hope they do more.

Good luck!

Blank lineup is very boring imo.

You are correct with this statement

The BB's are debating over if the blank lineup should be allowed or not though so we will have to wait and see what happens there.

I love this idea....Get rid of it...Make people think for themselves when setting a roster.
