Some of the responses on the no side blow me away.
Can't figure out why so many bad people populate this game.
So many schemers, all looking to ruin it for others.
Bidding up players from the opposition.
Trading farms so their country can win or the other countries can lose U21 or NT.
Coming in to take away the fun of existing players.
On and on go the conspiracy theories.
Good grief.
There were cheaters before, there will be cheaters in the future.
Many keep a vigilant eye and a majority of them are caught.
If I must live with the occasional cheater that we can't catch it beats the hell out of no game.
But such ne'er do well individuals, wonder why you all want to hang around and play this game with them anyway.

"Bidding up players from the opposition." -- I only brought this up as something to consider if the proposal passes. It is not something I would look to do, or particularly worry about. Considering all the other restrictions, I was trying to help by bringing up other possible pitfalls.

Anyway, I still prefer one team per person, but don't think adding secondary teams will doom the game or anything. If the proposal does pass, I would probably get a second team. And I'm a supporter and plan to continue to support the game for as long as I play, so my no vote is done with the utmost integrity and best interests of the game in mind. Saying that, I've only played the game for a couple of seasons, and maybe after playing for 10+ seasons, I would be more welcome to the second team idea.

I like the idea. I think it would be fun to join an out of country league.

I voted yes.
It would give me the chance to try out an entirely new strategy without blowing up my current team.
I've always thought it would be fun to have a true homegrown team. It will take awhile before they are good at all, but it would be fun to have the challenge of grooming what you are given (off the bat and in the drafts) into as formidable a team as possible.

And thats the only reason im against it.
It gives supporters an advantage.

Did you actually read what he wrote?
His different strategy is to build a team of totally homegrown players.
Where's the advantage there?
He's looking at a different sort of fun with this game, that's all.

I don't see the real advantage gained by this. It sounds like a great idea, especially with the "Utopia" for all 2nd teams. This would definitely cause me to renew my Supporter.

I believe that if BuzzerBeater lows a little bit the price of the supporter feature they will have a lot more of supporters. I would like to contribute to the BuzzerBeater with my money but the price is too high and it also could have a MONTHLY buy option like 3,99€ or something close to it.
