I don't know, I just look at the league and I see a majority of the team that from S2 and S3 and I know I shouldn't play on being there in the next 5 or 6 seasons is all.

Hard to argue with that. I will say that there are a lot of teams that started around the same time I did (S8), that are at the top of their respective D2s and are very very close to promoting.

You could look at your stay in V as a time to play, learn, trade, amass seed money. Because while being in a higher division gives you more money, its a lot harder to train out of position, and in general you're limited to playing your starters high minutes. In V you can sign and play 3k guys and win the championship.

My point is I actually think there is something attractive at the low levels that new teams shouldn't overlook in their hurry to promote to get to higher divisions. Just enjoy the flexibility to try all the tactics and different kinds of players.

This guy(jfarb) is living proof that a D.V team can some day make it to the NBBA.

If you're not planning/hoping to get into NBBA then you're playing the game wrong.

Making bold statements like "when I get to the NBBA" is not the same as planning to rise to the top. Planning/hoping and expecting are different. I would say a large number of teams that promote from V to IV, or especially from IV to III arent ready to compete at the next level yet and struggle to stay or tumble right back. Thinking forward and long term is great, but I always recommend to new players to scout and see what it takes to stay in the next league up, not just get there. I have clawed and fought my way into II and am hanging in there and I am still not ready to claim to the community "When I get to the NBBA", but hey that's just me to each their own. Not claiming it wont diminish my efforts one bit

And I soundly disagree completely with your thought process.

Ah I see your stance, you just want everyone to be quiet managers, you don't want new teams to get pumped about their future/hopes. I just think your forgetting the social factors of the game, theres press releases, nation team forums, league forums for a reason. Of course most teams arent ready to compete at the next level, thats why they have to plan and act with a plan appropriately.

Yeah, I should have explained a bit more.

You made a blanket statement that I thought was silly...but it wasn't fair to me respond with my own vague one-liner.

When you said:
If you're not planning/hoping to get into NBBA then you're playing the game wrong.


I said:
I disagree completely...


To elaborate a bit, I think that there is room within the game for people with lots of goals...but I was primarily thinking of people who train players for the NT. Some of them never intend to get to the NBBA and countries who have lots of players like this inevitably succeed on the National stage. I don't think they are playing the game wrong?
