sorry i wasnt pointing my finger at you saying u talk crap in the forums. i was just talking in general about lots of people, past and present forums who can be 'variable' in the actions compared to what they say in the forums. Zyler was a good example of that haha. ahhhhh. good times good times.

im not much of a betting man, i dont quite understand the odds system.

.........and looking into the future it is quite hard to predict what other teams can do. hindsight is a much better measure. so in hindsight, for last season, had i played a bit smarter and made a few more risky moves early in the season, and using SNuffies as the measuing bar, I would have been able to put up a comparable team to his and luck may have lead to me winning.

This season? who knows. if you are going to the measuing bar, and have $10mill in the bank and are going to use it at some stage in the season, then no. my odds are zero. unless all ur purchases are duds or get injured 2 weeks b4 the finals.
or u get some illness which means u cant log on and go bot. :)

i wasted 40k a week scouting towards the end of last season.

20k is the most that id ever spend on scouting now.

Why spend 40k a week scouting when you can buy the ABBL nbr 1 draft pick from last season for a couple of 100K???

Yeh I don't scout anymore at all, since nabbing Gab Wall when I promoted out of div4 I've noticed that you can save your $200k+ per season and just buy a decent trainee. As u don't need an 18yr old MVP every season you can save $600k and maybe even get lucky with the random crap that the draft throws up.

My chances of winning this season are about 40:1 against.
I have Wall and Davila who are worthy of the league but outside of that my team is severely lacking.
If I could finish 5th this season I'd be happy.

I am quite happy with the way i am just sneaking under the radar here.

Then there are teams like the Windies and PPH who merely scraped through last season


so much so that vios doesnt even know who i am.

That is the close to the smartest comment I have seen on this forum.

Actually it isn't. I think that player is worth more like $50k.

Here is his TPE:

Transfer Price Estimate: There have been 16 recent transfers of 18 year old shooting guards with respectable jump range and superstar potential. Of these, the ones with skills most similar to Big Smelly Moneypit have been selling for around $ 50 000 to $ 80 000.

Well since the new draft system, I've never been in the position to have a crack at the no.1 draft pick, nor have I ever even used it. Lets put it down to curiosity and the possibility of drafting my own potential future Aussie great!

I know what is smarter and have done that in all my seasons to date. No harm in doing something different just to have a go. I'll be saving plenty of cash anyway so no real harm done from my point of view.
