On the other hand, real teams change their prices depending on what teams they play. Local rival=high ticket price, Outoftownlosers=low ticket price.
But I would like to see atleast one more changeperiod during a season.

The name of Utopia division 1 is "Heaven", it should be changed to something non-religious

I'm not religious at all and I don't find Heaven to be a bad name at all. Let's not be so offended (or a lesser word) by every single detail about everything.

It's just that religious discussions are banned in BB forum rules and it seems like a bit of a double standard.

I agree heaven is not the most adequate name but your post should come with a better alternative.

would you rather have it be called mount Everest, for achieving the highest honor in all of BB?

But then some people will say: Mount everst is located in Asia and it's not a personal reference to ourselves.

Call it the NBA, and all non americans have a reason to complain about it.

Calling it the godlike division would be blasphemy for certain religious users.

Basically, there is no good name for it. So unless you are offended by the concept of heaven (which has been around since the earliest of times) then i'd just leave it at Heaven untill you come up with a more worthy alternative ;)

Considering the harm done to the economy by the creation of Utopia I'd suggest calling it the Bank Of BB.

I don't understand why the term Heaven was thought relevant to Utopia in any case. Its not relevant to the book and represents a misunderstanding as far as I can see. And of course, its ludicrous to ban religion from the forum and then have it in a league name. Not just ludicrous, but hypocritical also. I'd have thought that was reason enough to change it. I personally don't find it offensive, but I can see why some would.

If we're going to be serious, then in the book Utopia, from which the word comes, another land is known as Macarenses, which can be translated as Happy Land, and since reaching the pinnacle in your country should make you happy perhaps that could work as a League name. Though I'd have thought Division 1 would suffice.

if we need a neutral word, I suggest...
1. Peaceful league
2. Universe
3. Galaxy league

Everest is a good alternative, or maybe Olympus since Utopia has some Greek origin I believe.

I'm not religious or offended by the name, just agree that it should be changed for the sake of hypocrisy.
