Geez, it seems like I've played against Camilo, Watkins, and Valdeon a hundred times. Camilo has driven me nuts forever...I would have swore he was 40+ yrs old...


I remember Camilo way back in DIV....cool to see players that helped guys promote out of the lower leagues still making a difference in D1!!

Not yet but I probably will keep him around until 40. :)

You remember right, Jason. He was my key guy during our time in IV.10. I started training him in SS11 (my second season into BB) and only until recently that I moved him into backup role. His skills are nothing special but he's a reliable backup.

Fan survey, why do I even bother to check? After selling off my 300k starting backcourt before the playoffs then promptly losing, I expected some aspects to decrease. I did not expect my last season's nor cup run performance to drop a full basketball as well!

The good news is that, at this point, all it really matters for is merchandise, which we all know is so wonderfully implemented that ... sorry, even I can't keep a straight face typing that!

Despite winning the cup last season, I have had been no higher than 2 balls all season in "Happy with Performance Last season"

Why does BB have things that don't reflect what they are supposed to reflect? Ugh, kind of goes against this being a "simulation".

That is pretty crazy: when you win the Cup, most of your fans should be happy. Still, I think BB does a great job. Its tough to create a realistic digital simulation of complex human affairs (like basketball leagues) ...

I am not so sure about that.....even a simplistic formula like (below) would be better than the random mismatched weirdness it spits out now:

Team won a Championship and/promoted = 5 balls
Team made playoffs = 4 balls
Team finished 5th seed = 3 balls
Team played in, but won relegation series = 2 balls
Team sucked, and relegated = 1 ball

This is just one category to consider, but you get the idea. Maybe the fan survey overall is just a silly idea that should be dropped....but this is a simulation game...every formula, stat, rating, etc. should matter....No doubt it's impossible for things to be 100% correct...but at least have it so it's not 100% ridiculous!
