Their it is guy's. The season 20 preview. I'd like to remind everyone that if you disagree with what i wrote, then prove me wrong with your results. The preview is based upon data at the start of season 20. Economical wealth, injuries, etc are not accounted for when making this preview, so their is a very high chance that i'll be mistaken on a couple of things. But that is what makes the game fun. Because it's unpredictable. It would be pretty boring if we already knew for certain who would be champ before the season started, now wouldn't it? Also, if anyone is offended by whatever is written here, send me a BB-mail with what you consider to be offensif and i'll change it ( or erase that content). please know that it was not my intention to offend any of you. I wish everyone the best of luck during this 20th season of BB, but most importantly, remember this: Whatever happens, keep smilling and enjoy the game. It doesn't matter if you come in first or last, aslong as you are enjoying the game!

Thanks for the summary Revo. i miss it still you left D2.

I just have one or two comments regarding our division... I have already sold all my players so I would say adavantage to Radiations for the 7th spot... And it seems that Ventola is rebuilding its entire team as well so i would say that he would finished 6th.

My Bet :

Amenra Vottem
Boes Mizu
Mumu Seattle
Liege StoneStar
Obira Popotam
Ventola Estrella
Radiation Falco
RC AA

Hey I was the last one not to mention where he lives; it is because I was away for a while and just catcing up with all my games (hattrick, cycling manager, freekick and I started Charazay BB manager !) Not advertising here, because Buzze Beater is still my first love and the best.
And now my place of living : Grimbergen, so I am the only representative of the center of Belgium it seems.
Good luck to all. My start is not overwhelming but I have no ambitions.

I'm disappointed you didn't reply to my message (here: (217639.24)) and you had said you would explain your "test" of our last NT scrimmage. So what have you learned in that famous game, where Ottevaere, Lussu and reyngoudt have played resp. 10, 10 and 2 mins, where Biermans (who is much stronger than these last 3 players) didn't play once again and against a team who played with only 6 players and 4 C in the starting-five (very useful to make a test)? Can you also explain me why Loddo has played and why Fleeton was not used (or maybe the answer of this last question is that Fleeton is not in your team anymore...)?

I try to understand your choices but it's not easy and I think that the last two scrimmages are shameful.



Sorry, didn't get to that. As you all know, i've got other duties on BB aswell, and i'm currently trying to untangle a pretty rough GM case.

As for the test:

*) Biermans didn't play, because he's injured (injured himself on saterday). Though luck their
*) PG's Vercaigne and Reyngoudt confirmed something that we were suspecting all allong, and something which i'll be discussing with Angi ( and Laur3ns) to see if it can be incorporated for guard training in the U21.
*) due to the line up of Eesti ( Playing with 4 C's) the results on SG and SF are not worth alot, so i can't make any conclusions their. However, i'm pretty pleased with the performance of Sammy Backaert. I wasn't expecting his opponent to completely destroy him, considering we were putting up an SF against a C with IS 17 ID 20 RB 17.

The whole goal of the experiment, was to see if i could balance out an attack in patient if i fielded as many rounded players as possible. I was wondering if it might be possible to take a bigger advantange of the mismatches, but considering that Vercaigne shot half of the attempts ( or nearly half of them) it shows that for patient, Mismatches don't seem as important to determine wheither a player will shoot, but what is more important, is the ammount of driving a player has... ( after the competitive season, i'll field up a line up with a max of driving, and see how that pans out.)

As for your question about Fleeton:
I went with Loddo as last guy, because he's a more rounded player than Fleeton. I went with a max or rounded players. Only not rounded player to be around was Biermans, who was left out due to injury. As you should know, when i played scrimmages i didn't always field Fleeton, even when he was with my team.

What i find pretty dissapointing, is that i was online monday the entire afternoon till 6PM, and tuesday during game time, and you didn't pop up for a chat. Kinda shows me you still harbor grudge feelings because of one game. With you calling me out here, just confirms that idea. The more i look at things, the more i'm seeing a manager who's still angry over one game, and theirfor has decided to question every move that i make. Well, if that is what you want to do, then go ahead. Just don't expect me to answer every question right away. I've got other BB duties aswell ( I'm combining LA and GM duties). But i will answer any question you desire, providing that you ain't asking any skillsets of any players.

You might not like the first scrimmage due to the GS shapes, and that was a mistake of mine, i've said it before, and i'll say it again: my bad for that scrimmage.

Nice victory for you, but why did you go so hard on Malich ? I have no other point guard :-)
And contrary to what you think, I have no other ambition than training this year. Georgiev is completed, now time for Gross and I am training inside skills for Oostvogels, who can maybe make it to NT as as SG. Although training him last year was disappointing, because his height does not fit inside training really.

rest assured Joe. Altho this is my last season as NT headcoach for now, i don't intend on taking all the information with me. Whatever i discover, i'm trying to get it incorporated in the U21 training already, so that they can work on it from their on.

And once this season is done, i'll probably stick around as NT scout, just like i was before i became NT coach.

As for the cup games, their have to be atleast 1000 teams still left out their. And i had to draw a BBBL team as my opponent... ow well, in a certain way, it makes things easier. Once i'm out of the cup, i don't need to watch my GS anymore. I'll be able to play my players to many minutes each week, which will give them more experience on the long run ( 800 to 1000 minutes gives you one lvl increasement in XP).

As for your time concerns, yh, it's very demanding. Maybe slightely more demanding that i'd like it to be. But i've always said that once i would become GM, i'd be letting go of the headjob as NT manager. It's just unfortunate that i was asked later on in the season and not at the start of it, in which case i could have retreated from the election. I've always wanted to be a GM. I've enjoyed my time as NT coach, and all i can do now is try to finish up another nice season this time around.
