My reason to play with second team will be challenging my self. Try to get to the highest level and so on. Finland is quite small so I do not miss any micronations. My choice would have been the biggest and most competitive countries for second team.

Now when solution will be Utopia, I think that there will not be as many teams as in the biggest countries. I hope there will be much more teams than in Finland, but I'm afraid that Utopia will not grow as big as I would like. Good thing is that all managers are experienced so competition will be hard there

Another "problem" in creating new country "Utopia" is that if economy and division structure is based on current model, then those who are lucky and will get team directly from top level will get very huge financial advantage compared to those who will get team from lower divisions (tv, tickets, fan income). If you check early seasons from your own country, I think those teams who were directly in top league, they have dominated quite long time in new countries.... So how to motivate those managers who will get team e.g. from D IV.

Hopefully all teams are put into active divisions....meaning that lowest level will be fulfilled starting from n.1 then next 16 teams to n.2 and so on....not so that teams to lowest level are put into different divisions to fight against bots. Also relegations should be handled a bit differently.....

Call me cynical, but if any changes such as supporters having 2nd teams are to be introduced at the start of next season, then I believe that the powers to be will have by now, not only have already made up their minds as to what they plan to do for next season, but will also have started to do the behind the scenes work to make these changes happen.

I cant imagine that the work required to get these changes to happen, could be done in just a week or two

Was I, by reading the news "posted on 4/3/2013", you see that I was 100% correct


:-B

Like a month ago when i heard about this idea i thought - yea I will definately going to get a second team. The only reason i would not is if they made this stupid new country called Uthopia. And thats exactly what they did.

I will keep managing only one team, but you others who like this idea - have fun! :)

Yeah me too!
I don`t like this because I thought that this second team could be for farming players... Same like NBA has D-league!
Hopefully you guys will change this in feature so that´s why I could start to play with second team in Utopian league.

Wow! I'm really surprised by the announcement...
Supporters will have to pay again in order to have a second team? And this second team will cost 4 times less than the supporter package?
I honestly think that BB would have earned a lot more by including it in the 40$ supporter package and allowing it to be bought alone for 10$.

I know for sure that I won't pay for both... And I might very well end up stop paying for supporter package while taking the second team.

I obviously misunderstood what were trying to do here. Solve problem of micro Nations, and get more people to buy a supporter, by making a suporter package more interesting. And somewhere along the way they give up on both, and create fictional country, that you have to pay to get in. The country that will make impact on all existing BB world in the future, It simply does not make any sense to me. Because in best case scenario only 7-8% of users would be involved in Utopia. And all the other users that are not interested in Utopia will still have to deal with Utopia teams (through competitions) , and utopia players. So my question is for users that wont be joining Utopia: Do you want fictional country (Utopian teams, and players) in existing BB world?

Whatever is done, please do something about micronations. I think all are dying.
