Nobody cares about scrimmages. So only 2 days during cup. I would do away with Scrimmages altogether and keep Thursday as the third game day. Move Cup games to Sunday or Monday while you are still in it. Treat them like PL games where injuries and enthusiasm are isolated.

Maybe that isn't BBs fault then. I look at scrimmages and think about trying fun new tactics that I've never used, or look to see how my younger and new trainees can produce stat wise. It is also very important for my team to use the scrimmages and cup gams to manage out my teams minutes. If you do not care about scrimmages, you aren't making the most of your resources I don't think. I love that cup games are dragged out so far into the season as well because it allows me to manage enthusiasm better and be more successful in our league (I CTd for 5 of my wins last season if you don't remember). It is also very easy to get involved with the NT or U21 NT and then those games are also very entertaining to follow. I don't think anything really needs to be changed. I log on everyday as well as nearly everyone in our league and many other leagues.

Sparky and if i after 6 months break buy supporter again i can manage this same team which i previous do?

I agree with this, but you have to be careful about another thing.

4. You can never, ever transfer players between the 2 teams. For obvious reasons. You can't book scrimmages with your 2nd team either. These 2 teams are on virtual islands from each other.

This is all fine and dandy, but there is still a possibility of legal cheating.

Say your first team is training guards and second team is training inside players. When your first team is done with guards, you'd want players from your 2nd team join them because they are trained the way you want it. However, it is forbidden to transfer players between the 2 teams...

So you just set a default lineup and training that benefits your trainees and don't log into your 2nd team for 6 weeks. The team goes bot, players go to TL and you can buy them with the first team.

One of the solutions is to not allow any players from 2nd teams hit the TL after they've been retired.

A big NO from me for this suggestion. It would just ruined the game and give users too many options for cheating. I vote 0/10

I don't see how it increases cheating. Right now users can choose to play the game straight up or cheat. You get caught cheating and you get banned. Pretty simple only sometimes these cheaters fly under the radar for awhile before they are caught.

With 2 teams per user there will be a couple of new rules added to the mix that will also carry bans with them if broken, only now it will be 10 times easier to spot those cheating because everyone knows which 2 teams any particular user owns. It will be public knowledge. Plus if you get banned in this instance you also lose the supporter $$$ you've invested.

It would be pretty simple to add one line to each team/owner page linking the 2nd team run by that owner.

I honestly think that cheating is the least of the problems with this suggestion.

I completely agree with this statement.

Wow, and you need a second team to be happy, because you can't make anything in your country or what is the reason to have 2 teams?
The same mistake they made on hattrick, now there should be thousand players playing in micronations? Do they people want to play with users from other countries? I Don't want play with users from other countries in my league as an example.
10 seasons after that I play in my league in Bosnia with 2 guys from Germany, with 1 guy from Italy, 1 from USA, 3 from China and etc, are you kidding me?
How should my forum look like? I want to play with people from my country! Not in a world league.

Hope BB-s stay cool and don't make this mistake, there is no reason to have 2 clubs, to make a lot of people unhappy because some guys are unhappy with their teams and they want to go in smaller nations to get some success.

1 more example, they will be an invasion to the micronations, Bahamas have 7 active users now, a lot of people chose those countries with low number of users to go, in 10 seasons there will be let's say 500-1k or more people there, so Bahamas could be stronger then Portugal, Spain or whatever, this is a bad joke.

And it's not easy to get all those cheaters with 2 clubs, trust me ;)

Explain this to some users from those micronations, they must play in their II or III league when they have 10-20-30 active users, why? Because people like you are bored with their club, they go in other countries and kick away those people from their league.

My team play B3, with this suggestion I make an team let's say in Malta, I won their league too and my 2 teams play one vs other in B3? Bad joke too.

I say it again there is no reason to allow players to make 2nd club. This is a game where you have your own team.

It was only a suggestion so I'm not sure why you're acting like a dick about it.

My main goal for suggesting this was clearly stated in my opening post. Whether I own one team or two I would like this game to hang around for a few more seasons but right now it's slowly creeping toward extinction.
