everyones opinion is valued. Discussions are free for everyone to participate in.

you think fees will fix something you look upon as a bad aspect of the game. Others don't find it irritating, or don't think it irritating enough to change something, or might find the alternative more irritating than the beginsituation.

It's all fine, and the BBs will decide what they think is best for the totallity of the game.

But to give you an example, additional to the one just mentioned before, here's mine:

after at least 10 listings (probably even more) ranging from 2M3 to 1M9, back to 2M2, my man finally got sold for 2M6.

According to your theory, the 2M2 was surely overpriced, and since I put him under 2M0 for at least 3 times, and he wasn't sold, even 2M would be overpriced... and I should have been fined like 13 times with 20000 dollars for my persistency to try to sell my player overpriced... right?
Well, then tell me howcome now all of a sudden someone is willing to bid even more then the overpriced amount?

I think that about the last I can write in here, as I see no clearer facts why fees truely CAN hurt honest people too.
And I don't think it will be good if BB forces managers to undersell their players to make sure they are gone from the first try to avoid taxes...

I've almost got enough now to buy a player (maybe a player and a half) from a team in the Czech Republic that I'm sure you are hinting when you describe teams fishing for that solitary bid from a less than experienced user.

I'm very disappointed that I lost B3 final to less than experienced user ;-)
How is it possible to buy half a player? (Maybe I'm unexperienced as well I always buy whole player.)

So I thought you are already monitoring my team :P and you know exactly when and for what price he was listed.
Probably if you didn't mentioned Jones, he wasn't overpriced :P

My priority is to keep Estonia clean. I think we have catched most of the multis, so it's time to move on to the next things. I also have some foreign teams bookmarked, but I rather would not discuss them here. Anybody who get's fined should think of me right away :D and oneball one of my forum posts for revenge :D

Prices do change over time. With 13 listings 39 days have passed.

My priority is to keep Estonia clean.

How about introducing "player not sold tax" fee praticularly for Estonia? ;-)

1 - I hope you didnt think I was talking about you in my comments, because I wasn't. (I bet you can guess who I was talking about!!)
2 - You know I'm just a glorified day trader :D
3 - The comment about half a player is more a figure of speech (very english I guess). You might say something like that player costs an arm or a leg. Meaning you'd have to sacrifice either one of these to buy the player of your dream. The other way to look at it is mathmatically. You have $12mil in the bank and the average player costs $8mil... you only have enough for 1 and a half players!!

Lol is all I have to say to that :P
As for number 2, daytrading is one of the best ways to make money quickly and advance in this game. So anyone not doing it is at a disadvantage.

Day trading is a thing of the past.. if you see it happening now then this is on a very minor scale... back in season 3 and 4 - OMG but having said that no-one knew the value of defence and we didnt have Josef Ka's formulas :D Basically back then we were all buying blind. Now most people know (sadly some dont) that a Marvellous JS guy with Atrocious OD and very little else aint really going to cut it. We now have more information to base our valuations on which leads to less opportunistic and speculative sales - taxes too..... Day trading is a thing of the past and if anyone is able to do this successfully these days then hats off.

I still have a dabble every now and then but I am not at all confident that I'll get the bids I want and I now dont want to get lumbered with the players I try to turn around... back in the day you could play anyone in your team and if someone didnt sell (very rare) then you'd only have to come down a touch on your valuation and someone would bite as every week more money was arriving in teams bank accounts than was leaving for wages etc.
