BuzzerBeater Forums

Maybe I misunderstood something, because I don't know English well :/. But these first 41 countries from buzzer-manager? The number of users is not displayed there, in fact there are living teams. I am one of them)

I have taken the data from Buzzermanager, which is what I have available; It is possible that if these are wrong, nothing I have proposed will make sense.

I suppose that the administrators will have reliable data on the true participation of active teams in each league to consider whether the proposal is convenient or not.

In any case, I am interested in your opinion on the subject.
You are part of the "European Nations" league where there are 83 active teams.

Do you prefer to play against 84 human opponents like now?
Against more than 240 humans from more European countries?
Or against... how many active teams are there in Hayastan? Do you know any more?

I think that the more human rivals we have, the more fun the game will be, but I may be wrong.

Perfect, half of the first part of my proposal solved.

There are still between 30 and 45 countries with too few teams to have an independent national league.

On the other hand, what do you think about reducing the width of the 1-4-16-64-256 leagues compared to my proposal 1-2-4-8-16-32-64?

To support 1008 teams it would take up to VI division, with VII 2032 would enter and 4080 with VIII tripling the countries with the most teams currently.

Breaking up data:

#42 Crna Gora Europa 15 Teams , 3 divisions, 21 leagues. (More leagues than active teams!)
#43 Singapore Asia 20 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#44 Malaysia Asia 20 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#45 Belarus Europa 22 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#46 Cyprus Europa 22 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#47 Ireland Europa 26 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#48 Norge Europa 27 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#49 Colombia America 32 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#50 Danmark Europa 34 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#51 Makedonija Europa 34 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#52 Iran Iran Europa 38 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#53 Österreich Europa 40 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues.
#54 Sakartvelo Europa 45 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#55 Nations of Africa (AFRICA) 46 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#56 Perú Perú America 46 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#57 Nations of America (AMERICA) 49 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#58 México America 53 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#59 Venezuela America 55 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#60 Indonesia Asia+Oceania* 57 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#61 Sverige Europa 66 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#62 Nations of Europa (EUROPA) 83 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#63 Slovensko Europa 86 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#64 Bulgaria Europa 88 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#65 Chile America 89 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#66 Ukraina Europa 96 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#67 România Europa 96 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#68 Uruguay America 102 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#69 Nederland Europa 104 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#70 Schweiz Europa 108 teams, 3 divisions, 21 leagues
#71 Nations of Asia (ASIA) 112 teams, 4 divisions, 85 leagues.

This adds up to 694 leagues for a total of 1771 teams, that is, an average of 2.46 teams in each league of 16.

The rest of the countries have 4 divisions, 85 leagues for 121 to 382 teams (1.4 to 4.5 teams per league)
or 5 divisions. with 341 leagues for 596 to 1647 teams (1.7 to 4.8 teams per league)

After the change they would remain;

Asia___ = _209 teams => 5 divisions => 31 leagues => place for 496 teams.
Africa__ = __46 teams => It would enter together with Asia and Oceania

America = _426 teams => 6 divisions => 63 leagues => place for 1008 teams.

Europa_ = 1030 teams => 7 divisions => 127 leagues => place for 2032 teams.


In total 3 Confederations with 221 leagues, for 3,536 teams where the current 1,711 would give an average occupancy of 7.74 teams per league of 16, still leaving room to grow and double the number of users.

Reducing the number of leagues to simulate and manage from 694 to just 221 would surely save a few dollars on server costs.

And I don't count the number of leagues that would become the leagues of "Big" countries with their own national leagues.

I see that this topic is of no interest to anyone.

The owners, for marketing reasons, do not want to see the number of countries reduced.
Those from countries underrepresented due to nationalism do not want to lose their league.
Those from highly represented countries don't care what happens in those other countries/leagues.

For my part, the topic is closed.
