I would like to get infromations from my scouts continuoulsy, i.e. information should be added week by week, rather than in a big chunk at the end of the season.

I think this would have several advantages:

* It would add soem escitement every week to see the scouting results from that particular week

* You could adapt during the year, increasing scouting if you think your prospects are too bad or decreasing if you think you have enough information

* It would be easier for new users to understand what they are investing in, as they would get continuous information

* In the future the system could become more elaborate so you can tell your scouts what to look for depending on the information you already have (for instance check potential for a player that has been scouted once or scout a new player).

This is the reason, why they don't implement it the BB are afraid that you spend more money because your friend find a 18 year old A+ % StarPotential player or maybe 2 two of them.

That sounds like a strange motivation for me.

As long as their is some incertainty in he souting it does not help you very much to know that your friend has scouted a player that his scouts consider to be an A+ starpotential. Of course it s still helpful to know that there is someone that the other teams souts consider to be that, but still it is not a lot different fom two friends that share information about e.g. TIEs.

Then I do not hink it is very likely that someone would like to give away information about a potential star as they most likely would like to get the chance ti keep that star by themself, and giving information to their friend would dcrease the likelihood of getting that player without getting anything in return.
