Homer, you've a +1 with your ideas.

yes, feature is still on the drawing paper, but it seems we will have the 99th country, which i want to call "Supporterland".

i don't have any info, but for top 10 populated leagues (ITA/SPA/POL/USA and so on) i think it will be an exactly copy of competition which stands now. And it may (i underline, MAY) will haven't the right expected agreement. If you increase supporter price for this new feature maybe some supporters of this big nations can refuse to renew, because they may think: "why i have to pay more for another hard challenge? it's easier to promote in my normal division than in Supporterland one..." or they didn't join the 2nd team.

yes, in Micros the thinking way should be the opposite, like: "wow, competition, well prepared managers from all over the world!" but you can make confrontation just now about your numbers. i know that 55% of the users are from top 9 populated countries...

i was waiting for this idea..... now i'm very disappointed.

Lopo, this is a game, and i want to simply relax when i play. 2nd team in Micro is not only "i love to win easy", but is also "ok, few users, less competition". If i want to relax in Italy, i have to demote. Simply. Or i need luck to have 3 bots during season. At least in III/II div. A promotion, in a well developed and experienced div, costs at least 50k-80k per week more than your incomes. As example, in my leagues 2 seasons ago 2 teams had more than 400k salaries. An injury didn't allow one to promote, he rebuilds all the team and reaches promotion with 620k salaries.
3/4 seasons ago a players reaches promotion because he's a daytrader, so he can afford more salary.
I'm not ask tanking, but simply a less pressure when i play. And Supporterland will not help me for having this kind of game.

I don't get what does this Utopia idea really solves?
Micronations still will be the same.. 3 players in, lets say, Pakistan.. But now they will have the option to buy a competition in Utopia.. It is very hard to find the managers to play in Pakistan for free.. How many of those managers will want to buy a supporter? All of them? One.. And it is doubtful..
Macronations - mostly what Dylan Dog said.. Why should i buy a supporter for the same competition that I already have?

Hey Utopia will be 99th country - so this is no new server!
There are one more new country like second Poland or Spain. One big country in which you can use the same players who already exist. Maybe even we can play in world championship

I don't agree with all of your thinkings, and I'm really excited for the new Utopia server.
I don't know why would you like to play on a country like bahamas or something, it is the same as your own country, easier to promote pffff. On the other hand, a NEW "country", where you got the chance to start your team from 0 to top, at the same time as all users? That is awsome to me, and a great chance for all players that are not in the 1st division of their country.

P.S- A super radical Idea now lol, I wouldnt really mind an RESET to all teams in the world after 26 seasons of gameplay, and I feel that +50% BB users would love it too!

Honestly I don't like the idea of Utopia, I'd rather like to have a second team in another country. By the way, this is just my opinion, and it's pretty clear – or it has to be – that you can't satisfy every single user.

From your point of view, I believe this isn't the best decision you could take. If a user right now isn't willing to become supporter, he won't pay for playing in Utopia neither since it will be pretty similar to participating in a bigger private league.

Obviously, these are just my two cents, and it's possible I'm not taking into account many other factors.

Anyway, as NdR said, I really appreciated this poll and the forum discussion of future implementations, that's the way you must follow. ;)
