I know Im getting 1 atleast. Its utopia so not everyone has access to these draftees

oh wow i just stumbled across this - made for some good reading! got lost in the tirade!

its a good point though that you make - I do try and always talk about 'relative numbers' - that is - saying 'SB greater than ID', which could be mean 10 > 8.

It is hard though to always talk like this and in general, people will use the skills that they have experience with as a reference point. and because a lot of wise old men in BB land have been in top leagues, they tend to talk in top league terms as a point of reference.

This is where Utopia came in - because it allowed the 'big teams' to have a new team, and trial their theories using lower cased skill levels.

I dont think a red X is necessary, but certainly don't take literal skill levels as a good comparison in any thread.

I know of atheist 2 teams that are planning on building elite teams with SB guards and will aim for B3. And I really do hope we see them there making even more of a difference.

Since all of my draftees were guards, I am reconsidering my plan for the next seasons as well, and the idea of training SB on the guards is just crazy enough to be appealing.

20 Saisons IVth league tanking explains the 7.5 million, but how did you end up with a negative trade balance if you always sell your trainees?

That relegation(s)/relegation battle(s) in the lowest German divisional level didn't teach you a lot of humility, clearly. I applaud you for being so daring, but you shouldn't leapfrog over yourself. And I'm not saying this because I never once failed the playoffs so far, but because it should be common sense that if you go out and attack somebody's ability, I'd say you should really have an immaculate track record yourself...

Oh my, you dig out a post from last week that was not even aimed at you to boast your immatriculate track record while claiming not to do just that?

Let me think about an answer...oh i got one:

HAHAHAHAHA

On a serious note: The guy i replied this to bashed a player build he clearly did not understand without offering a reason.
If someone makes bold statements without reason you can only believe that face value and for this you need credibility.
To check someones credibility in BB the track record is a good way to start with and his is just not convincing.
Been in the game for much longer than you or me and always in between fourth and third league.
If someone spends 20 sasions in low leage relegation he is either tanking, builds NT players or is just bad.
My question was aimed to verify the first two options but he did not reply.
I am not believing someone like this without reason and thats what i pointed out in an admittedly quite undiplomatic post.

So in case you are indeed the knight in white armour defending others from unjust posts i regress.

PS: Lemonshine won the relegation in S23...never missed playoffs, hm? Even though this probably was similar to my first season joining last place at the end of the season you lied.

On a serious note

On a serious note some humility will do you good.

In before Perpete again shows somebody (in this case you, for the avoidance of doubt) that I took the team when all the competitive games were already played including the relegation ones. You relegated even after that...in the dreaded DIV that Trainerman keeps saying you should win blindfolded, handcuffed and under the influence of sedatives.

Sigh. Just use some common sense on top of humility, I beg you. Did you really think that I would go around chastising you for not having an "immatriculate" English track record, sorry game track record, while being in the same boat as you??? I mean you actually got confused and thought for a second that I am like you, because that's what you did???

Was out for 2 weeks for work in Italy and Romania. Hopefully, you can comprehend how someone might have 97 unread posts from a thread while on a business trip. That includes the silly ones like the one I replied to.

Oh, and for the record your post was not directed at you either. Does that make us partners in crime? Shall we agree to not do this again, especially if we're not irreprehensible ourselves? Thank you for understanding.
