I could not get a scrimmage booked for our NT.

Imo if no scrimmage could be arranged by the NT-coach, there should be an automatic booking.

Maybe there could be a mechanism where NT coaches who don't care who they play could put their Nation on a list, and at the end of the week those Nations are randomly paired off to play each other.

Well I cared and would be happy to be placed on that list.

Could we have an idea of undrafted players?

I qualified for playoff many seasons in a row, but I would like to train some high potential home-grown players. May I have a chance to get one? Maybe from BOT or undrafted players.

The mechanism could be each league has "FA pool", which the draftees left from the draft or from BOT, then gather into the pool and provide a week for managers to select that player. All the managers had to submit the pick order before the deadline, the pick sequence could be randomly selected by BB.

I just love training home-grown players in BB.

Collect scouting points, tank hard and you will be able to draft a stud. I'd even recommend looking for 19 year old players. Those can be absolute beasts.

No more junk data necessary.

I agree with the age thing, boring to see players to start declining at the same age. Look at Jagr in the NHL for example, he's 44 and is still playing in the worlds best league in a extremly fast paced sport. Other factors for declining could be game time, players who doesn't decline should drop more, trainer level (i know there's career extension but a NBA-level coach should be better at keeping players from declining than a amateur-level coach, and also make levels drop more while injured maybe.

Minor suggestion, huge implications:

remove the salary floor for the lowest human league.

My Utopia team has to pay the salary floor now. This is complete nonsense, as I would not be able to compete even sitting at the floor and buying players that raise my salaries is a total waste of money, as I could onyl buy decaying old players, thus I would lose even more money.

Best strategy imo is to suck another 3 seasons, until the players I train become expensive enough, so I get above the floor. The money I lose because I have to pay the floor, would be needed to catch up sooner. Unfortunately its like a millstone around my neck.

How about this.

Can the BBs/EGMs pin a message in the suggestions forum listing the suggestions/changes/additions to the game that they have under consideration to implement as well as the ones that they have rejected from consideration?

At least then its all in one place so everyone can see it. Several other manager games I play have a similar thread pinned somewhere.

Would love to see the boycott rethought, but for the time being, would love to see some leniency to teams that have just promoted and teams that face injuries. I lost my first game by 3 (after my star new addition got injured, luckily just for the game). A couple more of these close losses and I'm probably going to get boycotted since I can probably only compete with half the conference atm.

One win needed in ~7 games. I am sure you will get one!

3rd best player (and one of my trainees) in Utopia got injured for multiple weeks (happened also last season to my second best). Last season I started the league 0-8 partly because of it...

We also have seen people in the EBBL demote (after making the playoffs the previous season) because they got a 5 week injury their best player (by far) and other 2 injuries. I mean sure that's bad luck but it's obvious you're going to lose games if that happens.
