how long is this going to be tolerated by BBs?

This is good guestion. Tanking is going to far:

(46472465)
(46472472)
This is sick!!!

I'm not sure if it was such idea before. I think, it should be much bigger attendance decrease when team loosing few games in row.

Less money for those who loose some games in row..

And ultra less money for those teams who loose 25-0 or 100 and more points.

So the first game Attendance: 19350 . So many people come to watch a game where the result 0-0 is? Would someone go to a game and watch nothing? One time, the other game the Arena would be empty, if we look this realistic..

Thanks for the examples. They are really helpful to show the cause.

Agreed!

I haven't read all this but here is what i think.

There are 2 Different types of tanking,

1) Tanking for draft picks

2) Tanking for Money.

To fix any tanking problem you need to take away the reward for doing it.

1) Tanking for draft picks.

The objective here is to finish as low as you can so you get the first pick in the draft, So all we have to do is not give the lowest team first pick, So i suggest making the picks random for the lowest 6 teams. Finishing last will not automatically give you the first pick, and the bottom/weaker teams still get the 6 best picks in the draft.

2) Tanking for Money.

Problems are,

1)buying up big before the playoffs.

2)sending in 3 players or forfeiting and getting money for it.

3)Training has become useless at the moment because of the TL.

1)buying up big before the playoffs

To fix this we need to change the ineligible for the playoff rule. It need something like you are only aloud to buy 1 player in the 3 weeks before the playoffs and all other players MUST have played at least 6 league/cup games for your team or they are ineligible for the playoff.

2)Sending in 3 players or forfeiting and getting money for it.

Easy fix, increase minimum player number to 5 for starting a game, Increase the Player Salaries Floor, and if a game is forfeited there is no income that week, if there was no game then there should be no income from attendance, no Merchandise sold and TV money. TV stations are not going to pay for a game that never happened. (This is only for the forfeiting team not the opponent) (And if you forfeit an away game you loose you income for your next home game)

3)Training has become useless at the moment because of the TL.

We need to increase the Merchandise for players on your team that you have trained by yourself and decrease the Merchandise income for players you buy of the TL. Training need to become important again NOW because in about 6+ season we are going to have a player shortage on the TL and then the TL prices will go through the roof and screw the TL again. The TL needs balance where the prices stay the same, not going from 1 season where the prices are high then crashes the next season and then becomes unpredictable the next season.

has there ever been a TL colapse before? Like then TL prices go through the roof and there's like, only 4k people up in there.

Average is about 6-6.5k I belive

So my question is: Has there been any TL collapse in the History of BB?????

has there ever been a TL colapse before? Like then TL prices go through the roof

Yes, somewhere around season 12 when the BB put a 20k soft cap on the size of the arenas, and then refunded Billions of $$$$ for downgrading all the over sized arenas. With an instant boost in the economy the TL was screwed and player prices went through the roof for about 4+ seasons because so many people had money to burn.

glad I wasn't there at the time, otherwise I won't be able to buy a guy for a lllllllllllllllooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnggg time....hopefully ther'll be no TL Colapse again, but maybe BB Gods should manage prices more, like manage the TPE to make it reasonable.......
