hm.
your brain works in odd ways... ;)

I don't see how anyone would be interested in going into a bidwar on wages for a lousy player, while there are tons on the market with normal wages for ready to be bought for only 1000$
Or maybe because this way one could get free players with a wage of 1$/week...
Intetresting.

why is this odd?

if you were going to spend 500k on a player and planned to keep for 3.5 years (for examples sake) thats 50 odd weeks so 10k per week + the 6k odd he would be worth on the market... this is more interesting than an out and out price war but alas wont stop the teams that cheat obtaining the lions share of them... whichever way you structure it.

as for the players that people are listing for 1mil plus (as mentioned earlier in thread!) thats effectively the same as bidding up to 25-30k per week in wages... which adds a new dimension on the game.. you could then include salary caps relative to club income that would be one way to prevent teams stocking up and trading the markets....

I think it's a good idea.

otherwise why call them 'free agents' ?

and if you want to bring some realism into the economic side to the game.. you could limit wages to club income... who would payout 200k a week when only making 100k....

refer to the ;) at the end of the line, is was ment as a poking joke.

you also talk about keeping a player for 3.5 seasons. I doubt that I ever will have many that stay in my team for that long. If you want to keep improving, you will need to replace many players quite frequently and train the others in order to improve them all the time. So most of the ones that will be bought will not make 2 seasons... At least that's my strategy...

If people ask for 1M on the TL thats good. Nobody is forced to buy. It also could mean that they are not willing to let go of him unless someone wants to pay a high price. If they realy don't need him anymore there is no point in asking too much since they will have to keep paying slary as long as he doesn't sell...

If the player sells that means it was not too much was it?
A player is worth what others want to pay for it...

i disagree...

this is going back to the thread on day trading where there is a price for Free Agents on weds/thurs and then a new price for these same players on Sunday/Monday...

the only difference is that the strategy now is to prey on the newer generation of BB players that havent cottoned on to this.... and with 5000 odd newbies this cycle might continue for a bit..

are you telling me a guy i picked up for 14k after 1 pop was worth 325k? sure i'll take it but im staying away from the TL now having just ploughed all my money into my stadium...ive got 11 players to tackle the playoffs as im not going to stump up the prices just because i wasnt around on the days where the Free Agents were up for grabs..

surely it cant be long before most teams have 3-5 players that are over the 6k salary mark or have players with comparable or better skills than the current waive of Free Agents... when this happens i predict only the real star players will be trading hands for the big bucks....

only thing that will keep player inflation high is attendences which the Div 1 teams must be licking there lips over... the disparity between Div 1 and 4/5 is growing daily..... and then these teams wont be competing for the same players on the transfer market on a week to week basis...
