Thanks...good luck to you to. I started playing in season 11 I think it was, maybe 12, but left after the season ended. It was just to slow for me at the time. Came back season 38 in the middle of the season. Decided to quit and try to start right before season 40 started to get fresh trainees.
For the new people here, promoting to D3 isn't difficult really, but its pointless if you don't have a fully built arena, the funds, and talent to stay there and beyond for the long haul. I promoted after season 41 with a roster below the salary floor, but lasted only 1 season in D3. I lost the season 43 finals on purpose because I had 6 18 year old trainees, no money, and my arena was only 12k at the time. If anyone new has any questions feel free to ask.
