I have a thought on this. I've read that in some countries they would be worried about becoming dominated by foreign managed teams and that it could turn out that the top league in X-country doesn't have many teams from x-country. On the other hand some countries have so few users that there is no competition and its not that fun. Those countries probably would benefit from the additional teams.

So here's a possible solution. Let each country vote on if they would allow foreign users to participate in their country with second teams.


This is actually a pretty good idea. Of course, you'd have to do the voting before you started developing this, in case it turned out most countries voted against it. If we see that the micronations are actually supportive, that would go a long way.

2. Country restriction: Secondary teams cannot play in the same country nor buy players from the primary team's original country. To make sure some smaller countries aren't overwhelmed by the influx of new foreign teams, a minimum of 50% of the teams in a country will be reserved for local managers. Also, if a country is 90% full – the remaining teams will be reserved for local managers.


Really don't care about second team, or this option, if i cant buy and train players from my original country.
There is already rule that i cant buy players from my primary team, and good thing is that you will put that in the code, so no cheating will come from that side.
Why not just restrict number of foreign players in secondary teams? Maybe put that like 50% of players must be local, or something like that.

5. Scrimmage restriction: No scrimmages are possible between the primary and secondary teams.


Why not? I don't see any valid reason for this. Why not benefit from free training and tactics experiment?
Why i cant get my Barbados flag by playing with myself (no pun intended), i can only get it one time.

I agree with the rest of the restrictions and rules, and can't wait to get my new team, but as i already stated, only if i can buy players from my primary team country.

There is already enough objection about farming to not be able to allow people to really easily do it.


Best way to put that under control is to legalize it, and control it that way.
If this is business, and it is, and people want it, and they do, find a way to pack it and sell it, i see no problem with that.
And if i can't train at least one player from my country in my second team, i see no point in it.

As for the scrimmages, it's to avoid to easily manage 48 minutes or any other minutes management needed. Training minutes is never a sure thing in BB and getting to decide compositions and orders of both teams would facilitate that.


That doesn't avoid easily managing those 48 minutes, it makes it a bit harder, one BB-mail away. Making things complicated doesn't really solve the problem, it only puts away the least persistent people.

This would make U21 and NT teams "pay to win" things. Do you really want to see this?

It's a bit Off topic, but is only my wrong memory or this monday number of users was slighty increased than last monday?

I think this is BB-Marin and others BB and then the EGM work which provides this first, important result, or no?

(ps: i stop to write there because EGM-Perpete written same things quckly and more understandable)

I think the *can't-buy-players-from-original-country* is ridiculous. I do agree that you should not be able to purchase players from teams you own.

I don't think that that will shift balance of power too much, strongest countries will stay strong but it could put managers and tactics in first plan, even more when every NT team could have at least 5 really good players to play in starting lineup.

It all could give some weaker NT teams a chance to beat those high ranking teams with certain tactics approach, at the moment for most teams this is impossible.
