okay...I see what you mean now..but heres the difference:

Hampton Titans-Bourque place

Bleachers: 9510 Seats
Lower Tier : 824 Seats
Courtside Seats : 500 Seats
Luxury Boxes : : 40 Seats
____
Bot teams-

Bleachers: Approx 4500
Lower Tier : Aprox 450
Courtside Seats : Approx 50
Luxury Boxes : : Approx 0

As you can see, he has a huge arena compared to the others in his Division. Dollar value prices are not everything. you can increase revenue by reducing prices of tickets and having more people come to games.

So there is hidden MAX $earnings at division.
Like, for example if some team from div.I falls down to div.IV with his 23k arena he is still gonna earn ~80-100k $ per home games.. So this is the true theory?

Its not a MAX $ earnings per se but your revenue is correlated to the division you are so that the higher your division, you more revenue you would expect to get. e.g someone from D3 will get more revenue than D4.

If a team from D1 drops to D4, he would be earning D4 revenue not D1 revenue. Of course this would never happen but we have seen examples of guys having to fire sale after a drop in division because the lower division does not give them enough revenue to keep those players.

its not a theory..its fact :P

How low is dropping my prices though. I was hoping for a bit better of a Canada cup run to be honest. I am now hoping that this new draft setting doesn't mess me up from getting a good draftee or two..

Normally, I'd recommend you to look at similar teams around you but that would be grossly inaccurate as your arena is twice as big as theirs.

There really is no straight answer as to how much you should lower them. It comes down to a bit of a guessing process but lowering your bleachers, courtside seats and luxury boxes is a good start.

Don't bet on the draft. Especially when you are first in your league. Even in a bot league, it is not guaranteed you will get a good trainee as bot picking is no longer random.

I think I read from somewhere that bot drafting will be from the grey balls rather than completely random.

They grey balls can still be inaccurate. I scouted a 3 grey ball player last season and he turned out to be a 5 ball. Its better than complete random but there is still a bit of variation in skills if you are only going by grey balls.

Your rankings won't be the same as anyone else's in your league. The top guy on your list could be ranked 2, 9, 16, 39, 46, whatever on any of the lists for the bot teams.
