36 countries with less than 20 users with a total of 387 players (data from flag chasing page of (http://www.buzzer-manager.com/))

Thanks man, that was quick! +1

So, if we suppose that the majority of supporters opting for an easier league, will choose to participate in one of these 36 countries, only about 400 of them will get a spot.

I believe this means that the vast majority* of supporters, will have to play in bigger BB countries, anyways.


*i have no idea how many supporters there are, but a modest 4% of the whole user population(30k currently) equals 1200 supporters.

Sometimes, competition is high level there, and it happens you might be blocked in the same div for centuries, sometimes for injuries/bad luck/tankers/wrong management by you and so on.

Exactly! Competition in big nations is high level and it's hard to promote to the top league. But isn't it the point of this game? You try, you fail, you try again, you don't give your goal up and then you promote. Of course, it's much easier to register your second team in a micronation and win a title there, but for me, then, game loses its point.


I sincerely prefer to re-name Players/Have Jersey/have a court Logo-design than reply my team history with a 2nd team.

Yeah, team jerseys could be something worth my money. But that's not the place to discuss it:)



It's normal a different kind of opinion, but maybe you're in "easy one" and probably like to have more competition. I like a "comfortable" level of competition, a division/league where i have to play "for fun", so i can train as i like without being demoted, or make my personal "start up strategy" without be bored by season of limited money for buying players.
I admit, i like to win easy, but you will think the same when you become a blocked team in the same division ;)

I understand that we want to limit the influx into micro-nations,
but if we are putting just 1 new team to join the 1 already in Pakistan for example,then we really aren't creating much competition there.
We have to allow a little bit more on some of these countries
at least fill up Div 1

Imagine how happy one would be unable to progress through leagues because of the influx of foreign managers for whom it is a second team. Ridiculous.


Very good argument against this new feature, I am guessing that norwegian top league would have very few norwegians because they just won't be able to compete with managers who have more knowledge and experience in the game.

I like it, and agree with the limits (NT voting, etc.), iffy on the B3 though.

I have specific ties to a certain country that I would love to be involved with.
