Ok, seems like I trot out this suggestion every few seasons. Here we go again...

I believe that the stadium shouldn't be something that is, biblically speaking, "set in stone". We should have the ability to tear down seats, re-allocate our "space". Given there's effectively an attendance cap for us, we should be able to toy with the effectiveness of our *build*. Of course, this would come at a cost (50% of building? So - $100/$350/$1000/$8000), but there are several reasons why this would be a GOOD idea.

- mirrors *real life* (not a big issue for me, but some care about this)...
- gives the opportunity for those that have built too many of one seat type to 'repair' their arena (yup, I screwed up my arena - a lil'...)
- something that costs cash, and those most likely to use it are in all likelihood those who have accumulated quite a bit of cash...
- endgame content.

Can't think of any negatives... tho' given this community, I'm sure someone will come up with something!

Thoughts?

Poll:  Should BB incorporate the ability to re-model a stadium (at a cost, of course)?

Hell yes!
Nah, I don't care, so I'll be petty and say "no".

I voted for "no", there are more important things on BB to do then this one in my opinion.

Cheers!

This is where we hold them!

I didn't answer to the poll because your answers were deeply biased...


Really? You noticed?
...

Was completely tongue-in-cheek, but this is about the 6th time I've suggested it, and you're the first BB to make comment in any way, shape or form. I agree - it shouldn't be that difficult to add, but let's just say I'll be surprised if it is.

I understand where you are coming from looking at your arena, but my impression about attendance was always that fans are going to buy the highest price ticket that they can afford. If you lowered the price of your LTs, couldn't you expand your LTs?

+1

Some trainers can't get their head around the idea that lowering prices to fill more seats earns more money. Filling more seats is more important than selling seats at a higher price.

I think you guys are missing the point entirely... sorry if it's unclear.

I think it would be beneficial to be able re-arrange our arenas, at a cost. As stated in the first post, the reasons as to why aren't simply limited to "pricing of LTs".

It would be more beneficial to lower ticket prices and fill seats, at no cost.

Dude... sheesh... it's "end-game content". If you think that the post is entirely about *efficiency*, you're in the wrong thread.

I think you're missing the point. Paying to knock down seats you don't use serves no purpose other than costing you money. Even if the seats can't be filled by lowering prices, you're paying to remove something you paid for, which you'll probably pay to rebuild again later.

It costs you nothing to keep excess seats. I don't see the point in bb's coding a system that isn't an issue. Time and effort for no real purpose would be the negative you asked the community for in your original post.
