I just introduced the game to a friend of mine, told him a little bit about the mechanics and we both tried to understand the salary cap/exception/fairness/whatever rules.

He just shrugged his shoulders and told me he wont waste his time with a game, you need a Phd to play. This stuff is just way too complicated. Please rethink all this and find some better solutions.

What a waste of time to code all this, this wont add new users and I really doubt people will stay because of it.


You'd think that by now the BB staff would have learned to consult with your friend to make their decisions.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

In addition, when you first play the game, there are loads of ways it's easier. You start in a lower division, where the teams are most often very easy to beat. You have simplified options to setting tactics. You start with enough money to get you by. You have loads of places to find information and lots of people who are willing to share it.

Just like any in-depth game or skill set... You gotta start at the beginning. No one starts kicking soccer balls in the top right corner of the goal on their first day.

What I really want to know is how the problem of these mammoth salaried players is going to be fixed. Over 200k players are selling for peanuts. I'd rent LBJ for a few games in the league I play in. How cool would that be?!

to make the game "simpler" so people with only one synapse will play it is not to make either games, peoples or synapses better.

you know, there are tough PhD dudes who find chess, go and reversi actually very complicated.

I don't know... if I had a friend like that, I would suggest him to try Ludo, or Monopoly. something like that.

on the other hand, perhaps you can encourage him to give it a second try, a good, hard, one. maybe he'll find a better taste and become a fan.

yes, but give it time. things don't change just like that.

these players will eventually become less frequent in the market, since selling them will mean, for the original manager, selling like 150, 200k tax exemption.

right NOW, what you get to eliminate is that portion of short-term managers that can't afford, say, a 100k tax penalty for 1, 2 weeks. then you'll progressively get more managers training and acquiring kkks for tax exemption.

what you can say good bye now or in the near future is the 12k lvl-4 trainer for a 5k price. prepare to bid for this guy. hehe.

We can add that rules to the GDP and the smiley icons to the things you dislike added that season. And we are just January 1st. Luckily some other people seem to like those and discussion about second team for Supporter and App are under ways.


I am against the GDP since it was announced as it makes the game even more complicated and - as we see right now - almost nobody uses it anyway. The amount of time wasted for coding someting useless is mindblowing (just like the 5th place freeroll that was introduced back in the days - you had to fix that fix, and I told you from day 1). There is a long list of improvements that many people are waiting for and yet, every season we see changes nobody has asked for.

Good to see that the discussion for useful improvements are under way - took you two years to start talking about it. Follow my lead and everything will be fine.
