I can't follow the argument that this change will " help rebalance several pieces of the game" - pretty obscure imo.


Others have pointed out how this "helps rebalance several pieces of the game". Like Charles said, this change is not about fixing 5th place. The 5th place thing is just a feature of the change.

After you realize that 4th and 5th place are not the main features of this fix, then let's talk some more.

Pls read:

Salary roster: 579,500
Average revenue home game: 147,086

What should I add? It's clear enough?

All that proves is that you are carrying way too much salary for a division III team. Maybe that's because you are trying to time a run for the title while sitting on a huge bank balance? I don't know.

In any case, I am not sure what this adds to the discussion.

When I read this I think you may have bigger problems than what happens at the end of next season. If this is accurate it I consider it an extreme and fairly unique position. If this change only negatively effects people in this predicament, I say job well done BB's, you limited the damage nicely.

Starting from the third division all the teams that want to try to be promoted in Italy are losing money every week, I'm in a particular situation, don't worry about me, I'm here since season 2 and I'm really happy you like what has been proposed, we have a complete different opinion and time will tell...
Nothing more to say I've making my example with figures and my point of view is clear ;)

I believe that people that now try to become in at 5th, just to avoid the salary because they believe they will not get to the final will never be champion. You will build you team to get to 5th place instead of building to be the best. I have calculated the 2 weeks of no salary max. and still I try to be champion even if it's impossible this season.

I was sceptic about this change but I believe it's not so much of an impact on your team as everyone tries to make me believe.

Only if you have screwed up financial status you might like the new 5th place and it might just give you some piece of mind to know if you do come in 5th because your just not better then that that your not stuck with 2 full weeks of salary loss.


+1 for you, full quote

It seems that the others say that when you'll finish 5 instead of 4, you'll have a penalty in the next season, this is th argument of which one think that this change is good. Or the code will be totally re-written or imho they don't have so much experience in BB. Now really STOP :p

I know this is meant to be a redistribution of wealth from the top teams to the bottom, but there could have been other (simpler) measures to do that.

I think I am spoiled by some other games I played and the way problems and solutions were handled there - maybe thats why I have problems understanding the developers so often...
