The example with your cousins and friends is funny, don't need to comment this. I just ask, why didn't you do this if it is so good?

Because that's not what the game is about...It's like asking "if you know how to pick locks, why don't you steal things from other people's appartments?" Well because there are things called dignity and honesty...

Again example, Pakistan 1 League

1 team from Pakistan
1 England
2 China
4 USA
1 Italy
1 Hong Kong
2 Espania
1 Argentina
2 Poland
1 Ukraine


Following your example, the way Pakistan league works right now is:

1 team from Pakistan
15 bots

I guess current state is much better, right? Tell me, what would make you leave the game sooner...international competition who you can learn from and actually have competitive games against, or whole season of 60pts+ wins? I think even if that lone Pakistan was a nationalist like you, he'd prefer playing against real teams, albeit foreigners, to 15 bots from his own country.

Great, that would be an great 1st league for Pakistan users, they would really love it.

Oh, they would hate it because you hate it, right? Just because you hate it, doesn't mean everyone else will feel the same.

Let the option to people chose in witch league they want to play, simple.

You really don't mind when I say "example", what is with those countries with 20-100-200 active users, would they like that their national league is a mix league? I don't know. I don't like that.

Pakistan was maybe not the greatest example (it's the worst) because as I can see they have just 1 active team, why is there anyway their country in BB..?
If country have less then 15-20 active players delete it. This 1 active guy can chose another country where to play. He can just play with bots.. sad.

This is where we hold them!

But why even those countries exist on BB when they have so low number of users, 1 guy in the whole country, that's not funny to this guy, or 5-10-15 users, that's sad, I guess they would rather play in a bigger country.

Historical games - make like with a BOT team.
Users chose another country where to play.

The second team could be used for farming.

Solution: Prevent to buy a player from the country of the first team (which won't be allowed to buy a player from the country of the second team).

Example - China make deal with USA, China managers train USA players with their second club, and USA managers train China players, it's just a farm 2nd club, they don't need money, results, just buy 2 players and be a farm. Bigger countries, bigger advantage for them to farm. What is with the smaller countries..

This is where we hold them!

Even if a country has 10 or 15 active managers, this doesn't mean everyone are actually "active". Maybe there are just 5 teams out of 15 that are interested enough in BB to log multiple times a week, watch a live game once in a while and maybe even post in forums.

Let the option to people chose in witch league they want to play, simple.

As long as they don't choose Bosnia, right?

There will never be a solution that suits all...

The second team won't be a problem for you in these 2 cases:
- they all play in a fictive country.
- they can only join countries with less than X users or in the X smallest countries. The managers of these countries would be allowed to have a second team in the X biggest countries. That would be dynamic.

Like the 1st suggestion, make a league for 2nd clubs and let them have fun.

The 2nd idea is not bad too, but anyway there is an advantage for bigger countries to make farms.

They can chose a country from their continent. You're not right now, they can all come to Bosnia, they play normal with us, why not, it's a small number of players, lets say 100+ from all those small countries on BB, and the numbers of supporters from all countries is much bigger.

Have you seen Barcelona B playing in English PL? No.

This is where we hold them!

I like the way you think. Nice one, that could be OK.

But there is always 1 defect. Let's say half of managers in my country and in China have supporters and 2nd club.
That's 150 new clubs and potential farms in Bosnia.
China have 750 new clubs and potential farms. You see now how the advantage is big for the bigger countries?
