I stayed HG for this season while knowing I probably won't win a single game in Div I.

Even with Fan Boycott, I still make at least 50k a week.

I managed to make Play Offs in Div I with HG team before, it's possible with careful planning. Now I'm couple of seasons away from competing in Div I, but I can get there again.

While we eagerly wait for the culmination of this HGL season I wanted to take the time and point out that a year ago today, the first ever Matchday of the HGL in BB took place. As competing in the HGL has enriched my BB experience a lot, I wanted to thank all managers that have been part of this amazing project, and especially Wagner, who keeps this league going. I hope that the HGL will remain part of BB for long-term. Now, good luck to the managers fighting for the gold and bronze medals of HGL S4.

I am interested in any idea(federetion etc)

Some time ago I was thinking about asking you about HGL league for utopia teams.
After few seasons with 1or2or3 nonHG players(bigs) I went fully HG for second team. I even had some chances in last weeks for divII but now its gone (22-0 was possible).
My utopia team was biult another way around than first team(I had nice guards first and now I am finishing bigs, playing 3-2 with some blocking).
However utopia team is not so refined(has some flaws) as first team.

The only thing which might keep me out of HGL is purchasing some beast or two and try to promote (div I).
But I guess it's impossible , top16 in Poland is another level, salaries 800k-1200k

I am little curious about finances in yours HG teams, wondering if I am maximizing income

Thank you for pointing this out, LennuK. - a something worth celebration. :)

It's great to hear you've experienced HGL in such a positive manner, and you've most certainly been a very positive addition to our roster of committed HGL managers!


@all HGL managers, past and current:
As we celebrate one calendar year worth of HGL journey, I also want to take an opportunity to thank all managers that have taken this journey together - it's been a joy to travel this journey. Such an "all-manual league" is always as strong or as weak as it's participants (and thrives of falls based on that), so let's keep our standards and commitment level high in future as well, in order to keep HGL thriving! :)

I'd also like to revisit my idea of organizing HGL meet at some point. (Should first meet take place in Finland, I'd strongly suggest summer or autumn instead of winter).

I do fully realize all the difficulties/challenges that it does have, and I also understand it might not be for all, and certainly not all of us (or realistically, not even most of us) would be able to enter any given HGL meet.

However, I'm old school in that way that for me meeting people face to face is always the best thing there is, and meeting like minded people who share the same interest can hardly be a bad thing, can it? It would obviously be interesting to know people behind their manager names more thoroughly, to the extent they are willing to share information (and I believe it would remove a big threshold talking face to face, vs. writing such information to these threads).

So that's why I haven't given up this idea, even though last time I presented it, not all that many managers even commented anything about it.

So, if any you have any thoughts on potential HGL meet, all of you may just as well open your chest of words. :)
