Bit of an update on II.1...

Big 8 - not looking so hot, but at least Baikinman's planning with the future in mind, picking up super-trainee Honda.
Only one actual bot at the moment... but Northan00 & Sasimi look headed in that direction. Of a worry: Zenigata hasn't logged on to his team in more than 10 days. Maybe a holiday?

Great 8 - where the power is... it's a shame that in the first round of the playoffs, 2 of the best teams in II.1 will be finished. Still... we're a while away from that.
No bots, but for BC Tiger it's only days away. Pity, because I've never seen a team start with as good a roster as that one. Dragon riders isn't too far behind in "becoming-a-bot" status. Everyone else's solid.

Some big games coming up this week - Great 8 teams playing host: can Baikinman trouble Shikoku? How will #1 aisteru fare in Kyoto's house? Can zenigata put a stop on the Kings?
Should be interesting...

How will #1 aisteru fare in Kyoto's house?


#1 in the blue against #4 in the red and the match wasn''t too bad but #4 had a solid 18 point win. The red won 7/8 games with only bottom team BC tiger losing to now top team in the blue KFC. The imbalance is incredible.

The top 4 red teams are in a brutal struggle and how much are they willing to risk to win promotion? It will be interesting to see who goes all in this season.

Ouch! You didn't try for the last round of the Cup? Same with Otaku. Kinda understand you not doing so, but Shikoku? For shame...

Goodonya Fighters for giving it a swing!

Did you see who I was playing? Against 95% of the teams in Nippon I would have had a chance but Kitakyushu is the #3 team in the entire nation, it was at their arena, they were willing to normal us and use their stars like this:

Meeme Kirk (6917323)
Shooting Guard
Owner: Kitakyushu

Weekly salary: $ 217 589
Role: regular starter
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 2809200
Age: 29
Height: 6'2" / 188 cm
Potential: hall of famer
Game Shape: proficient

How am I to beat players like that? Probably the only teams I wouldn't try against were them, Sharman, 3A, Yokozuna and Swoosh. But it is the top 16 you have to meet a JBBL team sometime, just a pity it was the second best left in the tournament.

As for league how does it feel to be on top? Must be good for your fan survey. Notice KFC crushed Terry Bogard? They can dominate almost anyone but the top 4 in the Great 8. What a problem! It will be a long journey to the JBBL for someone.

Feels pretty good... but pretty precarious at the same time! I'm there by the skin o' my teeth!
And it's going to be a long journey to the JBBL for LOTS of someones!

Hi guys, sorry for no comment, i was away sorry. In my point of view, the team reach the 1st position in the great 8, have the 60% possibilities to promote JBBL. Sorry if my comment of "top 3" upset you Shogun. I like your time a lot! I wish i could have my teams almost all my players for japan. It is enviable! But I still have my opinion. It is possible that Kyushu Ramen at this time a better team than Shikoku, but in my humble opinion, you have better team that all teams of the Big 8, in the Great 8, you have the 3rd or 4th best team. I hope this comment does not bother

I don't understand (the previous post was deleted) but if you want salary details have a look at this:

Total Salaries in Season 17
# Team Players Salary Tot Average Std Dev.
01. Sapporo Fighters (53440) 12 $ 275 100
02. zenigata gangs (53449) 14 $ 268 086
03. Shikoku Otaku (53426) 13 $ 252 440
04. Northern Kyushu Ramen Kings (53423) 13 $ 188 653
05. 楽しい (53427) 12 $ 187 389
06. Kyoto Shogun (53477) 14 $ 155 288
07. aisteru.4ever (53414) 12 $ 150 015
08. Baikinman (53437) 13 $ 123 927
09. Terry Bogard (53408) 12 $ 100 225
10. sasimi (53482) 10 $ 90 043
11. Dragon riders (53410) 8 $ 59 063
12. Japanese Teriyaki Ninjas (53413) 18 $ 52 341
13. BC Tiger (53473) 14 $ 42 599
14. Kokubunji Dodoscos (53478) 12 $ 36 651
15. Northan00 (53416) 8 $ 35 578
16. Joker V (53435) 8 $ 24 123

I always felt that the Fighters were the team to beat and look at these massive salaries. Zenigata are also paying a lot but not such a great return on their money, still I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the finals.

mikelm15 I was a little upset always feeling left out but it is all ok now.

malice well done on the blog. You are a celebrity now.
