Lower Tier : 3450 (Current Price: $18) (Price as of 4/5/2014: $20)

The only immediate benefit to adding to your arena in Division 4 and making additional money would be to add Bleachers. I personally would add 2,000 to 3,000 bleachers while in Division 4.

This is based off my little experience with my arena in Division 4.

The arena is plenty fine for IV and could serve you well for a while in III. I'd avoid investing too much more into it now, and if you do, resist the urge to throw up a load of cheap bleacher seats. Spend some time thinking about where you plan to get to in the game, how you want to get there, and what your arena should look like when you're there - and then prioritize the lower tier seats vs. bleachers if you want both. But make sure not to build seats you can't sell either.

The problem is making it into D.III ha. I stopped trying after failing for 4 or 5 seasons straight. I figured the problem was my arena since I didn't have a high enough salary cap to compete in my old D.IV league. I just can't decide how many more bleachers versus lower tier seats to build.

I of course see myself in D.II as a bare minimum eventually. NBBA would be nice but I'm staying realistic and not optimistic after the troubles I had in the lowly D.IV. So what would you build next?

I was leaning towards another 1,000 Lower Tier since I've been around long enough to know so many other people that maxed out with over 18k Bleachers regretted it instantly.

What are your gate receipts looking like with your 15k/5k ratio? Do you know of someone that has the 12.5k/7.5k ratio?

And is a 10k/10k split just plain stupid or a possibility as well?
