A separate TL for these players would (notaprogrammer) be easiest and simplest probably.
Window for how long it's open is a valid point I did not consider. I would say a default of 3 days (like a standard transfer) andif that's not acceptable that's an easier fix.

For the view of this TL maybe be similar to how it is when you view another team. Enable search filters based off age, heights, potential, position, salary, nationality, etc. Justnot skills. Since skills would not be visible to you unless you pay money to try and buyout the player.

To help keeping this from super overloading servers. Give a.... 2 week window (1st toss for timeframe) that not players etc can be bought out. If they receive buyouts any team that pays buyouts can then bid on player like normal vs anyone else who may have paid buyout on same player.
If during the 2 weeks nobody buys a player out, then that player is SOL and deemed unfit. Much like players being cut andnever resigned in real sports. (Tim Tebow)
This also would mean you're not having to sift through 10,000s of announcers and 6th man.

As to the micro and macro... it's possible for micronationteams to train more at the highest division than teams from larger nations, but I agree. It'd be nice to get some micro action teams point of view...(where's Wolph when you actually need him).

So, I guess from a coding point there would be some kind of check for newly bot teams daily for this which could be problem? I'm not a programmer so idk. And a harder hitting one right after the draft for all the players on bot teams too.

I reckon it would require a huge amount of additional coding (programmer view point) Maybe the BB's could recycle some code used.

my oppinion is split on the matter, but i feel as tho the negatives trump to much of the positives that it brings (especially the fact that it gives the largers nations a much larger boost than the smaller nations). But atleast, it's a well worked out suggestion now. remains to be seen what a BB might think of it.

btw, you can eliminate the shifting through the §th man and announcer players. just set your potential minimum and that problem is solved ;)

As you said this idea was shot down(several times)im the past. I would not bother to recycle this topic.

So, because Thomas Edison failed 1000 times at the lightbulb he should have given up?

"I would not bother"

Well, agree to disagree on where to give up on something. There's a difference between an idea being shot down, and an idea being straight up banned.

So, (cant do anything about the coding), I/we/everyone just need(s) to work through a way to negate more of that Macro/Micro difference for it to be more feasible.

Apart from Joseph Swan inventing the lightbulb, its not really an accurate comparison. Edison was only trying to turn electricity into light. Compared to changing the minds of the BBs that's a relatively simple task.

Just make it so it's fair for everyone. that is all that i'm asking. think about those in the large communities, without ignoring the ones in the small communities. Cause if you don't try to balance it out, you'll just lose users at whoever end of the spectrum the suggestion doesn't benefit.

that is all that i'm saying
