You have a real large % of luxury boxes right now.

For divII, I would go for ~ 10750 6000 400 40

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

your pricing is optimistic to say the least...

Your tickets are too expensive in my opinion.

I have to agree with the other posters about price. Have a look at some of the other teams in your Div and see if you can find a comparable Arena size that is getting good attendance numbers, then look at your prices in relation to theirs and look to change prices similarly next update

My opinion on Arena which I have only developed this last season through reading and discussing a lot (It took me about 2 seasons to receive any advice on building - my fault), is work to get the Courtside Seats capped out at 500 and get Lower Tier to a couple of thousand. then build in patches up and down from there. Luxury Boxes will cap out at 50, so not too long for you there.

You can start chipping away at the seat numbers, but your most urgent is getting the prices right, it's tricky and frustrating but keep learning.

I think that is a great idea. It will take some time and a load of cash, but the end product will generate you awesome income in an upper league with a competitive team.

Looks like you are about the same as myself in Arena growth, I am thinking of the same proportions and have decided to do the LB last.

I understand where you guys are coming from but in small countries its reasonable for me to sell out my arena with an advanced pr-manager and a couple of road wins even if the tickets are at maximum price. I know that in big countries like USA ticket prices are usually lower then the default listing , well some are but in India I can get away with over pricing tickets with a pathetic roster. Its just another example of that micronation problem.

Fair enough about the micronation-America analogy but you still need to lower your prices. If it is reasonable to have your prices that high due to road wins and a PR Manager with a good level, then why isn't your arena selling out? I'll give you a hint: It is because you are 5-6 in your league so you cannot afford to have your tickets that high. You are barely selling out half your arena (which is small) so you are only making a fraction of what you could be making. I have you making about 100k from your arena per week which isn't bad but there is no way you will ever sell out with a .500 record and tickets being that expensive. We can disagree if you want, but you could easily cash an extra 50k+ by lowering your prices a bit. Putting all your tickets at the max is not the way to go.

Okay,I have another question. Im thinkin about selling my roster and buying 8 18yr olds and training them , is a level 6 trainer too much ?


And if I do decide to do this what is the lowest potential my players should have ?

Ps: you were correct I make 102k per game right now
