The cutoff should be 80 users. Averaged over multiple years. Even as pro-merge, it would be unfair to fold countries that actually fill 5 leagues

The problem is that the 'users' as per advertised is often quite inaccurate. Japan's advertised as having 26 users... yet opening each league page (JBBL; 4x Div IIs), that number is revealed to be 25 - and 3-5 of those are *not active*, and well on the way to becoming botified. So... 20ish.
Depending on what you declare as "active", we probably have maybe a dozen relatively active managers. If that.

Yeah. That's why you'd average it over the last actual year or two. Let's say there's 50 very active users in a country of 80 login users. Thats enough to satisfy me. If you can fill all of your D2s you shouldn't have a lot of stagnation at the top if users are timing their runs correctly.

This conversation seems to have slowed down. Is there anything from the BBs in terms of discussions or new info regarding this topic?

I have 1757 players for sale and I'm $25,835,360 in debt. Buy them at outrageous prices, or be selfish and make me go bankrupt. You decide, BB.

Unfortunately not. Ideally what will happen is that the BBs select a final solution based on the feedback received and put it to a public yes/no vote.

Ideally? Hardly. You guys know what is good for the game, and me-me-me is not, no matter how many people want it.

Apart from option 1 of this initial feedback stage, everything else is still on the table.

Well, THAT'S good news.

Unfortunately not. Ideally what will happen is that the BBs select a final solution based on the feedback received and put it to a public yes/no vote.

A query: everyone votes? Bigger nations who this doesn't really impact are going to basically make the decisions for us lil' guys?
