i dont understand what happend in TV revenue this seaosn
we are in III division and we take less money than IV division last year
why???
last year in IV division we have $ 77 411 from TV
this year in III division we take $ 74 115
can someone answer for that??


The TV contract is calculated based on the total salaries in the league (I think it's 2% of the total salaries at the time of the calculation, split between the 16 teams). For reasons that BB has not disclosed, the first season in Utopia had an artificially high TV salary compared to the actual salary amounts of the players, possibly as a side effect of how the leagues were created. Now they're back in the normal calculations so the TV contracts and salary floors are as they should be.

In addition, all of the high salary teams are moving up to D2...so even under a normal tv contact formula it would end up dropping as the top tiers fill out.

So now that we are in the third season with all the upper leagues filled. Do we have an estimated of TV contract in the divisions? I'm mostly curious as to division III as I am going to secure promotion in two days.

So how many seasons ago was utopia new? I agree with having the salary floor but don't want to go over what I have to pay I might end up going over by a little with my 2nd team. Any suggestion I only have 7 players on my roster for utopia and is curently trying to build a all hall of fame squad with utopia. I'm tanking untill I feel good enough to promote i'll be watching my league untill I think I am ready to promote if that is the case I am not willing to spend as much on hall of fame players. I am also stocking up on draft points as I have already finish with getting my top 3 players for utopia I have 9 draft points for next season. I belive as to my estimation once I stop tanking in utopia i'll be able to compete and promote right on ahead to division 3 if I stay in the current bottom league. I'll focus more on my 1st team which I have never tank and has always try to win. I may not even try to quit utopia once I figure this game out.

Heading on the right path so far. Are you?

I'm tanking this season for good players and setting my arena cheap. Thanks for the advice.
