True. Keep in mind new users also have the option to start up in as high as D.III in the USA now if they want to.

I didn't know that teams were given a choice where to start

Season 31 News:

BB-Marin

A small improvement has been made to the signup process too: new users can now choose an approximate starting level in their respective countries. They can use the old system, used so far for all new teams, which puts them in mid to low level leagues, but new choices include low level, bot filled leagues which almost guarantees a quick promotion and a nice advancement curve, or high level, human filled leagues (where available, top leagues excluded) which guarantees tough competition right from the start, carrying a risk of imminent demotion. We trust these options will enable new users to find a better fit for them when starting the adventure that is BB!

That's sort of bogus they would easily be demoted right away though

Which isn't always a bad thing. That's why it is up to them!

Yeah it seems like there's less competition in the US leagues now. My first team back in season 14 (I think) was in a League V and took a few seasons to get up to IV. Are there just less teams playing, or are there too many leagues now?

Less teams. Season 14 was about 4 years ago so the user base has dropped off a lot since then.

Do you guys have any advice on how long (what age) to train MVP and Hall of Fame potential trainees? Should I go to 25? or a bit longer/shorter?

Also, would you like to approve my account for USA offsite EBW?

I would get younger trainees in the next few seasons so you can train them as backup trainees if you want to, but they don't become liabilities with how slowly they train when they get older. I don't think any of your guys will actually hit their caps, so just whenever you feel like rotating down to a younger trainee or two.

Also as for the offsite! YAAAAAS you have joined the cool club. I approved you, so feel free to introduce yourself on there!

Did something fun with my team!

I went through all the NBA players and assigned my guys to an NBA player, and I think they re pretty accurate! Feel free to give some insight. (This might actually help you know a little bit more about their skillsets, but it's fun so I don't care)

This is my team:

Starters-
PG: Jarrett Jack
SG: Tony Allen
SF: DeMarre Carroll
PF: LaMarcus Aldridge
C: DeMarcus Cousins

Backups-
PG: Rodney Stuckey
SG: Richard Jefferson
SF: Wilson Chandler
PF: Drew Gooden
C: Kosta Koufos

Reserves-
G: Raymond Felton
F: Jan Vesely

Pretty fun I feel a lot more connected to my team and the players after doing this.
