"I haven't paid much attention to the new teams because I can't log into buzzermanager for whatever reason"

In the forum they said BB-Marin disabled the Api-apps in order to ease the load on the servers
So i guess buzzer-manager will run once the site will run smooth

Oh ok thanks for the info

I'll put you to win it all, let's see if my new voodoo doll works

A new victim?

@ TheRainmakers: i did not pay attention that only Supporter could create a topic with poll, I will try to do it next season.

now, looking to the red side, i have the feeling there are less diffrence between teams this season and the ticket for PO a long journey but stil my objective

Buzzer-manager is live again ;)

I have a question for you guys, what do you think about the new engine changes? Will they finally end the LI dominance?

I didn't even know about the changes. Could you please link me a thread where they talk about it ?
Are they already live ?


Thanks a lot

I do hope the changes can bring some more efficiency to outside tactics, which hare really hard to set up in my opinion. Just take a look at Switzerland's starting SG, who's currently for sale. He's 20 JS and 17 JR, which is amazing, and he shot a poor 27% from long distance over the last season. What does it take to cross the 30% line ? A 20-20 player, which is extremely rare ?

It is in the news from the season announcement:

"The new game engine upgrade was not tested last season like it was announced, but that will be done this season, starting this Thursday. Note that the new engine might be tuned during the season and the effects might vary."

There is not really a forum because no one tested it or no one knows what it will look like. They will test in PL games normally.

The beauty of Buzzerbeater is that a well built player is always stronger than someone like that guard, his IS (9) is just too weak, his PA even if it is 13 might also be too weak (If i remember correctly Joe gives his go to players +16 in PA!!!). Because he has high JR he will jack up 3's like crazy even if it is a bad shot, he shot 77 shots from 3 last season no one of my players shot +70 shots from 3.
The other thing is OD is a bit overpowered you just put a Guard with OD 18 on him and he will struggle, he may drive to basket but cant make the shot because of his weak IS,

I just saw the whole team is up for sale and have a look at his french player, he has JS 19 and JR 18, that guy shot 54,8% from the field and 45,6% from 3. There you have your build :P. Meanwhile he has lower PA 11 than the swiss guy but higher IS 13, this kind of contradicts what I said about PA but reinforces what I said about the IS, you need IS if he drives.

I dont't know if you know Nachtmahr, but he did a lot of test, I promised to translate all his tests but didnt go through with it (sorry Angie :P). But what he found out f.ex. is that a good shot depends on 2 skills and not just one. He said f.ex. that a guy with JS10 and JR15 shoots worse from 3 than a guy that has JS/JR 13/12, the closer both skills are the better they shoot.

The post about Nachtmahr is somehwere on the belgium NT forum.

last year, my PG and SG had better performance in PL then II.1 but PL was not really strong. This year it starts the same way but with stronger opposant...i am going to follow-up

As promised here comes the economic breakdown :)

Variation of the TV contract:
Season 49: 123,000 / Season 50: 132,666 (+7,8%) / Season 134,377 (+1,29%)

This is the first hint that the league is still strong meanwhile we don't have such a big jump as from Season 49 to Season 50, the TV contract augmented.

The average salary at the start of the season is 351 556 (according to BB) (Δ +8,05%) / 335,299$ according to a calculator (Δ +7,14%). The median salary is 357,838$. The players salary floor is 251 284$ (Δ +1,29%). I guess the difference between BB and the calculator is because BB applies the salary floor while calculating the average salary while I took the true salary.

The highest salary comes from Collège Saint-Louis Basket (484,346$) (Δ -6,31% compared to shoes last season), followed by TheRainmakers (455,974$) and LV Clips finishes the podium with 446,970$.

The 3 bottom salaries come from promoted teams, their salaries are way below the salary floor so I guess we will see change there in the future. BC Benfica (169,338$) / rode duivels (148,679$) / Beerschot AC (126,679$) are our 3 bottom salary teams.

I would like to add that last season i did the post after the 1st economy update and some managers decided to change their roster after it so I did it this time for the 2nd economy update.
