Well, Japan is a nation with mainly foreign users and I have never read a complaint about that.

Micronations with only a handful users should be closed anyway. Add a carribean and/or african League instead.

I would add another restriction, managers can only join nations with less than xxx users. Lets say as long as there are places in Div II availiable you cannot join a country with human managers in Div III.

Hello Beaner in this 2014 New Year.

I have no idea for what and for whom this change will be made for. I understand that number of users decresing but this change will be false change and only for supporters. Better idea will be some kind of youth team, under 21y.o. at the same country as 1st team, and can promote from 2nd to 1st.

or some interference in the game, when I am loosing or winning.

cheers

Overall the idea of giving supporters a second team is amazing and it should had to be done many seasons ago. But I don't like that second teams could be possibly placed in other countries, and I believe I am not the only one. At this point I agree with Kumiko, something like "Utopia" would be okay to me. And answering sparky44 question about "Utopia" countries being able to compete in B3, why not:)

Only question, lets say.... You're just one hell of a guy at this, and both your teams become B3, what then?

HUGE yes to this. Many others (myself included) have written about the desire for this as well as the fact that it would help bring in supporter revenue to help fund the BB business, app, advertising, etc. But, I'm flabbergasted that 24% voted "No" on this. What are people's reasons for voting "no"? If it is implemented to prevent cheating (as has been suggested), why is anyone against this?

I agree. Why vote no?

Also I like the idea of a Carribean and African nation.

This is a pretty cool idea and would be really exciting.

Some people might not like it for the reason that a couple people have stated: "What happens if both of your teams make it to the BBB?" How would this be dealt with? I personally am 100% fine with multiple teams, if that issue is sorted out. Would I use two teams? Heck yeah! I'm not sure If i would have the time available to run two teams to the best of my ability, but it would certainly make things more fun. I would have this current team be my powerhouse team, and the other team would be used to test different tactics with a different style team and form new types of trainees to see if they work out and such. I think it would be very beneficial to BB both money wise and interest wise. Not to mention it could really help out those micronations.

So pretty much.. I vote YES, as long as the B3 dealio gets sorted out.

I voted yes.

However, maybe some people ONLY want to play against people from their own country. Example: Team with 10 teams, all of a sudden it is 15 teams and 5 teams are foreign.

I would be OK with all the 2nd teams being grouped into the "Utopia" country. This was suggested by someone before. Then every one can play against every one else in this league with your 2nd team and the cream will really have to rise to the top. However, then there is the issue of how everyone starts out (div I,II,III etc...)



This is a big yes for me too. I think a "supporter" country should be created where all the second teams reside.

We also need to add a third game a week. Also a second round of PL games per week. It's ridiculous that there are more "off days" than "game days". The goal should be to drive traffic to the site each day. After two or three days of not logging in, it no longer becomes a habit for people. I have never understood the reason for so few games. Give the people more action and they will stick with the game more. It's common sense.
