Hi! I'm following this forum because I have 1 canadian player in my roster who is your NT list, but i want to say..
The NT played a scrimmage on Monday so do players that played that game get the NT merrchandise bonus?

Yes...but the NT merrchandise bonus for scrimmage isn't as high as for competitive games.
There is no difference between scrimmage or competitive games. At least for me there wasn't. 18/02 was friendly game against Iran (23103), my both players played this game and next economy update was my merchandise bonus same as always.
21/01/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 223 670
28/01/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 231 768
04/02/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 228 983
11/02/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 229 386
18/02/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 229 250
25/02/2013 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 226 517
Do they need to be on the roster still to recieve the bonus?

No. They don't need to be on NT roster in economic update time. They just need to play (be in match roster) in NT in week before the update time.
They must be in NT roster in economy update time (week after game), otherwise they are like thrown out, and you can't get your NT merchandise. I have been so a couple of times.

Good luck Canada!

Wow, 2 National team players and 2 starters from your own country and...
Around $230,000 per week in merchandise, that seems very...nice
How does that stack up boys and girl of Canada's Div I?
Our league avg is under $100,000, why is that?

2 seasons ago I had 2 NT players ($154k PG and ~$150k Canadian C) along with an $81k Canadian PF and made $56-60k merch. I'd like to know why I made 4x less in a fairly comparable situation.

BTW, The Aristocrats of Naismith made something like $200-350k merch with a one-man $5k roster many seasons back. Merch is just mental. It's way too volatile and random.

Based on everything that I've heard it doesn't necessarily matter if you have players on the NT roster but how many minutes they actually play for the NT that is most important. So if you own the 11th or 12th men on the NT who barely play, you're not likely making much more merch than the guy that owns the 2 final NT cuts. Someone can correct me if that's off base.

All that said Stajan, your 56-60k figure still seems ridiculously low.

Interesting... I don't have player in NT. I based on experiences users who have players in NT. Your experiences are different from what I heard.

Stajan said he made 4x less...it looks like that counting marchandise bonus for having national team player is governed by some strange laws.:-)

I had two players in my own country and very high wage (7558003), (10950837).. I think this is the biggest reason.

It is very low :O ... Are the merch rates different per country (in terms of the multipliers or adder that come from having an NT player)

beanerz probably is making a killing with his 3 players on NT, but out of curiosity... I doubt his merch covers those salaries does it?

I have no explanation for why Stajan's merchandise revenue was so low (Level 1 PR guy perhaps?).

Level 3. I'll be angry at myself if that's the reason I've lost millions of dollars through merch. I've just followed other's opinions on PR guys and have never heard of people being successful with higher level PR guys.

BTW, The Aristocrats of Naismith made something like $200-350k merch with a one-man $5k roster many seasons back. Merch is just mental. It's way too volatile and random.

I strongly doubt this ever happened, and if it did, it was a bug.

Yeah, I'm not positive. He did mention an absurd $200k+ figure on an offsite forum we're both on.

Probably 35-45% max of those 3 players' salaries, but I have no idea.
