BB isn't dying a slow death. I believe this game is about dedication. What you get out of it is a direct reflection of how much you put into the game. I don't worry about teams that go inactive because it just means they weren't dedicated neigh to build their team and compete in the higher divisions. I'm a really competitive person and I want to play against the best managers in the future once my team improves.(I'm a good 4 or 5 seasons away from that. If not longer.) I believe there are enough dedicated managers right now who make BB what it is today. Now don't get me wrong, having more managers wouldn't be a bad thing but it is nothing to worry about and should not make anyone think this game is dying. People lose interest in the game when they are not making progress. Even though I'm a relatively new manager (joined in the middle of season 27) I love his game and never want to see it end. Just remember my team name because I will make it to the top division in the USA eventually, just give me time. Lol that's all I have to say, just wanted to throw my thoughts out there.

Happy to see you enjoying this game. Good luck this season. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask questions in the forums. There are a lot of managers who are more than happy to help assist you.

Good to hear BarcaSwag.

As Sportsmaniac99 suggested, ask questions...lots of them. Also, read through the Help forums as you will find most of your answers in threads going back RL years. Just remember, no matter how silly you think the question might be, or even if you think it's been asked before, ask it anyway...

Good luck this season and hopefully you're here for the long term :)

If only persistence is required, I'll be #1 someday ...

1. To devs: Keep doing what you have been doing. Don't lose confidence now

2. Keep any eye on weaknesses of the game (overall). Focus on improving those areas

3. Improve the amount of joy each user derives from the game. In feeding us real entertainment (e.g joy, detachment, diversion or escape), therein will your ultimate blooming lie $$$

Why? First of all: is that true ?? If yes, go to step #1.

I love Buzzerbeater because it is such a strategic, fun, simple, yet complex game where you can find several different ways to be successful. And what got me hooked is the ability to ask questions and get answers quickly if I ever have something on my mind. The close community and communication between managers makes this game special. Just keep doing what you're doing BB and this game will remain to be successful. A few improvements each season makes this game more and more exciting. My next goal is to be a U21 manager for any country so I can get more experience. I feel like I can do something special. I'm absolutely hooked to this game.

I have been playing Buzzerbeater since February 2009. And being addicted even more today. Not only because of the game itself, but also because of the great community. I'm sure if BB invests some money in advertising on basketball community web sites (for example, in Germany on schoenen-dunk.de, crossover-online.de or fivemag.de), the user base will grow. This game has great potential and if I look at how BB developed in the past 2 years, I'm very confident.

I agree, Shadow. This game can and will still grow. However, importantly, if it doesn't...it's still very good in its existing form.

I've been playing since 2010 and, like yourself, still love it. I've made some major mistakes over the last four or five seasons (all on whims when RL interfered with my investment in the game) but now I'm enjoying the challenge of trying to fix those mistakes and fight my way back. To make the task more challenging, the addition of Utopia and increased prices on the transfer market for older players has made it harder to get the players you want if you're not training or if you need some experience off the bench. Throw in the introduced player salary caps on purchases, training exemptions, over exemption tax, the GDP and---the best lesson I've learned---the importance of training players for your team's future success...and this game offers enjoyment to match the level of commitment by the manager.

Long live BB! lol

maybe every (big) nation should have an moderated forum or a responsible person to collect ideas on regional advertising. your examples are nice. i don't know if an US-american would have thought to advertise on these sites.

so maybe if a national PR-manager or a thread where all sites are proposed are introduced the advertisement money would be spent more efficient.

i dont think only basketballgames but also other online/manager games which are popular in different countrys.
