It is very unfair that as you say pathetic teams that wouldn't make the playoffs in II.1 get promoted in the other leagues. But it is the way it has always been and nothing we can do about it.

Not so nice for me to start the season taking on probably the best or 2nd best team in the whole league first, but I must face him some time.

Some teams got great players in the draft, HoF guy at #2, we like our guy:

Masateru Otake (21305587) Point Guard Weekly salary: $ 4 530 Age: 18 Height: 6'3" / 190 cm Potential: allstar

He may well replace Kobe in our training rotation.

Best news is not just Daisaku Kawaida made the U21 team but also Noritada Konoe who is only 20 and will be brilliant next season!

Congrats on that. My trainee center made the squad too... for a minute or so whilst he was "scouted".
That... was confusing. And a bit disappointing.


Not as disappointing as the draft tho'. 3 drafts now, and everyone has been sucktastic - even when I had the #1 pick. Screw the draft. I don't think I'm ever going to get anything even moderately useful... let alone "good".

I didn't spend in the Draft, because i thought that i could promote...Therefore, My draft was a garbage. Sometimes this game is so unfair... We cannot do anything...

mikelm, given where you finished, your draft would have been garbage anyway. I did spend (tho' not a lot), and mine was awful.
Go through the draft - have a look what you *might* have gotten. It's slim pickings.

I know about bot sweep ups missing you.

(http://www.buzzerbeater.com/league/1963/overview.aspx?sea...)

Stunners and HL both got to move up ahead of me. That meant i spent the next season in div II.1.

But two things.

1) its no "honor" to go up to the JBBL for one season than spend the next one right back in the div II

and

2) winning the league is an automatic qualifier.

Win and get in.

Somebody let me a hold a no. 2 pencil cause they testin' me.

Yup. As YC is fond of saying "BB's a marathon, not a sprint."

Well... ugh.
I just took a look through the other leagues...

II.4 is completely bot except for Albanian Mafia.
II.3 has 3 users (but one's going bot soon).
II.2 is half user, half bot.

Us? With Northan joining, that means we have 1 bot in Big 8 (and 小野 洋子 not far from being a bot - hasn't been on for a month!), no bots in Great 8. Not too bad!

And BC Tiger? That roster is the best I've seen someone start with. Damn, train points!

What happened to Tokyo Lions? They were created and then without waiting 5 weeks or even 5 days they were replaced with Northan00. Odd?

II.1 has its +/-/interesting

+ it is a lot more competitive than the other leagues when we make the JBBL we will be ready.
- in any other league you or I would already be in the JBBL.
interesting this league is a lot more interesting to be in because at least you have someone to chat too.

BC Tiger started with an all HoF/ATG roster. Pity none are 18.

That was a surprising upset of Otaku by me. I only sent in my best roster to keep the PD lower because my other two games were so easy this week and then Konoe goes and has a career game and hits 35 and I get the win. Wow, I didn't see that one coming.

We both need 17 wins to improve from last season. 2 losses to Fighters, 1 to Otaku, 1 to each other and 1 to a blue team and we can do it.

GAH! Get out of jail free there mikelm...

First, you play Normal to my TIE. Then my PG goes down in the first quarter (yes, your PG went down towards the end of the 3rd). You won by 5... damnit.
Nice win, but you were lucky!
