T If you'd care to look, you'd see OP never posted anything outside of original message.

Well OP never posted here again, period.
Seeing as how he's new, and after reading his question, I'll just recommend selling him.

give me a DV adn I will promote every season without fail.

.I guarantee you, 1 season 1 promotion...till DII, without a doubt.

I am lightyears ahead of him

At some point, how fast you'd promote in the USA would have as much to do with luck as any type of "skill". Unless you're talking about simply day-trading your way to a massive fortune & buying championships. And even then...

No doubt you'd breeze by D5, and probably D4 too. But no way you'd be guaranteed to get by a really tough D3 league. Especially if there's some monster D2 level team already there. You haven't even played in a single "normal" competitive league yet... I think you're underestimating actually having to deal with all that comes with it.

Or what if some NBBA team decides to tank 2 seasons & meets you down in D3? Do you really think you'd be head-and-shoulders above them in just your *3rd* season? (& it would be your 2nd season, if you started in D4. which some teams do)

Just saying, even with the lamest possible tactics (loading up at the trade deadline, operating at a weekly loss, etc.) it won't be the cakewalk you're painting it as. Your success or failure to move up in 1 season would be as much a function of the quality of teams around you as anything else.

Slightly off-topic:
Not knocking you. But I just glanced at a bunch of random games over you played in over the last couple seasons. wow. You get away with putting out some really horrible lineups on a *regular* basis. Multiple players with single digit game ratings -_- & you're a top division team... not only that, but you're one of the top teams in that top division.

Plus, you've seriously got an 8 player roster?? There's no way you should be allowed to win both league games & stay alive in the cup. Honestly, the JBBL is seeming a whole lot closer to D4-D5 caliber competition than to D1 in many aspects. I mean your 2 best players aren't even in good game shape & it doesn't even matter in the slightest.

Of course you do it, taking your team and arena, with you.

But that's not how team start.

Look
this silly argument is really about young Mountain Eagles handing out advice
not other D IV or D V managers
that his posts show that he is not experienced nor knowledgeable enough to do at this point
and I must agree with that
and frankly if you've needed help in trying to get you out of Div V
you should be all ears and eyes with post typing fingers dispensing help to others tied behind your back

There are many friendly and talkative people that offer advise on these forums, but everyone who has a IV. something, V.something, or IV.something under their team's name means that they have no credibility (outside of the very very very rare instance where a team has purposely relegated after a long run in division II)

I'm from division II. But I'm from a micronation, so I'm actually from the second last division, that would make it a div IV. I guess I don't really have much credibility ='(

Correct.
Apparently you have to be a USA Division III level team with a losing record, like Valubadag and his Tornado Turtles, to have credibility here.

Edit: Valubadag wrote:
And I can say that from a position of success.

You sure can, Valubadag. You sure can.


I think it's safe to say that if the #1 ranked team in the USA (as of last night, at least) threw his game against you because he was scared of me in the Cup, clearly I am more qualified to dispense advice as well as unlicensed medical tonics. I'm not sure I'll be able to reach the prerequisite losing record quickly enough to help the original poster, though.

And my advice would be: buy my unlicensed medical tonics. They're cheaper than doctors and make me money, and that's really awesome.

Thanks for the advice! although its about 50/50 in the comments. Not sure how training works, how good can my player actually get if i keep him and 1 position train him with a level 5 trainer?
