Sorry guys, just an information... Before to expand the arena is not better to raise at the maximum level the tickets and only when your arena will be full at the maximum ticket, then expand it? Increase the places is very expensive, that's why I ask your point of view. Thanks.

I think you make the arena "full on every place" maybe the build % is wrong right now, I think you have to have more courtside seats than in the beggining and so on...

make the arena right % on every seat, so when it is 98% full you have some courtside seats, some lower tier and most bleachers empty...
then increase (or in the same time) to maximum price

What I see from your arena is that the best build are Bleachers ;) I do the same ;)

Very good observations. Your technique will give a reasonable approximations of some sort of optimal seat distribution.

However, the experiments should be done @ a given price level. We cannot assume that price affects different seat levels at the same time. In fact the rules claim that it doesn't!

yeah I think we boost price max first..then declare the % of seats that is optimal.

I wonder if they're ever going to institute maintenance cost for arenas and people will be more careful about overbuilding. For the time being, there is no penalty for building too large an arena.

Surely, there most be a limit to attendance. What's the biggest RL basketball arena -- maybe 25,000+ seats?

Those are the biggest college arenas:

In the NBA, i think Detroit is the biggest at just over 22,000 seats.

1 Carrier Dome 33,000 Syracuse


You can get 33,000 folks in for basketball, but its not exactly an good venue for watching basketball, so I've been told.

And haven't they put Final Fours in SuperDome, Georgia Dome, and Alamo Dome and sell upwards of 50k tickets?
Not that half of those see anything more than what's on the jumbotron...

Yeah, I think those venues are like the Carrier Dome...not exactly optimal for watching the game.
