BuzzerBeater Forums

comon guys, this cant be serious?

It's obviously a mistake.

I love Buzzerbeater and try to get my friends to play it too. I've been a supporter since day one, when i joined and i'd really need a GM's help to alter this mistake.

Seriously, the devolopement is really great - but there has to be one person in the BB management to look into the scripts and just simply change the - to a +.

I've been extending my arena since couple of seasons and i never really paid much attention to anything else than the fields where you put in how much seats you want to build... and like the guy above mentioned, didn't add a - or anything negative.

I reckon i've spent around USD 80 for Buzzerbeater, it's not all that much - but it's still not nothing to be aloud some help when really needed.

I ll pay you guys 20$ via paypal to change it - i'm really serious. I understand that work like this would take some time and i'd be willing to pay for it.

please answer again, because it shouldnt rest the way it is now..

EDIT: When i saw the result of the decrease in about 2'000 seats i thought.. "ah shit, what the hell?!" - but then i thought, ok it's obviously a mistake and i am confident that a BB or GM will be able to undo it and i know it's possible. It's probably one of 500'000 files on a FTP server, team-nummer -> open up a file and alter the script. Common, it is possible and it's something we deserve as well.

EDIT 2: It would also make sense to build in a "Stop Build" option.. i could understand that an extension couldn't be stopped, since you would just use the seats built by that time.. but if the decrease could be stopped, e.g. after 1-2 days of work, they reduced 300-500 sits. Ok, so be it.. at least one could start to build again, but like this.. being locked out for another 14 days (well, actually its gonna be like 16-17) and then having to wait another 30 (again actually 32-35 days) is really a pain in the ass.

GMs can't do this sort of thing.

Only the BBs have the access to do this sort of thing.

That's understandable, i also wrote Marc and Charles a little message and i truely hope they will be able to help.

EDIT: I am sorry to spam you here like this, you're a good GM - always helping out and giving quick responses - so don't take it personal when i am letting myself out on you. But when i imagine you being a BB fan like me and the same thing would have happend to you out of various reasons (.. i actually blame my gf for chatting with me and stressing me to come watch TV.. but yeah, she's anyway all pissed off that i spend that much time on BB)... i could imagine that you'd also try to get some real help on this matter.

we decided that since arena contraction effects NOBODY else except for you, and that we only were giving the money at the end rather than at the beginning we could implement a cancel function without worrying about any possible effects on other users.

NOTE this is no way indicates that we are going to implement similar "cancel" functions for other parts of the site. For example, cancelling a listing of a player, or a scrimmage, or something of the sort, because in all of those cases the act of listing a player affects not only the team that listed him, but also the teams which might have decided to pursue him on the transfer market rather than another player... even if they didn't make a bid.

we have implemented a cancel button for you.

thank you very very much !!!!

Great movement. I also downgraded my arena trying to upgrade it. If you make a fast note in the news about this, lots of teams will be on time to thank you (I arrived just by 1 day).

Oh my god, thanks ever so much Forrest. Where shall i send the money too? :) I am really serious, you made my day!

Great news! As I wrote in a different thread, I made the same mistake, too.
Thank you very much!!!

Thanks Forrest!

I'll post it on the Dutch forum as well. I think the problem was more widespread than some here thought it was. Don't want anybody to imss out ont he possibility to cancel now.
