BuzzerBeater Forums

It’s funny, the forums had become kind of quiet, then this malarkey erupted. A bit of banter is ok, let’s all dial it down a notch now, ok? We all play the game with different goals and we’re all at different stages on the path to those goals. But the pile on here is poor form. It’s a game, there are other actual humans on the other end of the keyboards, let’s be respectful of that.

I was just checking across div 2s to see who got promoted, so ran into this forum and...yikes. This is wild. Spending $1m in div 2 is pretty interesting, but anyhow, congrats to Chrundle on the promotion along with All Torn Down.

On a positive note - at least people are invested in the game, just hopefully more civil and friendly moving forward

Thanks man, it's good to be back into the ABBL.

Cheers mate, i have to say though, it was extremely tough to balance the finances after dropping down to Div 2, and spent majority of the year in debt.

But looking forward to the challenge again to be somewhat competitive.

Nah don't apologize mate, its all good!

I think from memory i was making over 550K a week in home games in the ABBL compared to 290k in Div 2. Thats a massive drop, plus add in my roster salary this year so it was tough, but im looking forward to getting the 1.5 Million and rebuilding my roster.

Thats great you have challenged yourself, it would be good to see you back at the top mate!

I have kept particularly quiet in the forum this year but having read all the comments over the past couple of weeks, i have to say that anyone is obviously entitled to play this game however they want.

For me personally, i refuse to go down the draft and train route. Getting older established players who are ready to go will always be my way, and yes i have burnt cash doing it, but that's how I play this game. I am happy to play in any division but will do it my way and like others, especially Petronas, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong in how he went about it in trying to get that promotion. Not having home court definitely plays a major part when your game shape isn't proficient across your starters.

It's great there is a bit of chatter in the forums and hope this can continue going forward. Banter is great, as long as it doesn't get personal and at the end of the day, this is just an online basketball manager game for all of us to enjoy and play however we want.

No one is questioning your strategy, Mate. I too have older ready to go players because they are cheaper. That might not be my longterm plan, but I understand the logic, even in a rebuilding phase. You were the dominant team all season. You had a plan and executed it to achieve your desired outcome. Congratulations on promotion.

I'm not even saying Petronas shouldn't spend 1 million on salary if he so chooses. However, when he calls a couple of people out because of his massively inflated salary with zero provocation, he can expect it to hear about it when it inevitably blows up in his face. I didn't sledge him when I beat him with the minimum roster and him wasting a CT on me. Stones and glass houses and the like.

That is what all this is about. Someone who thought he was destined for glory threw shade before the fact and didn't like the facts in response. He could have chose humility, but instead started a forum thread thinking it would validate him. Now he's eating humble pie (or at least should be).

Round of applause for the freshly relegated HOSS BENDER for his 2 cents.

If you look back to the original forum post, it is stated NEVER FORGET with a match link.

How you are interpreting the post is your freedom, How you are playing the game is your freedom.

Same as how I am calling you a loser is my freedom, same as how I am eating humble pussies is my freedom.

NEVER FORGET you are a relegated team.

NEVER FORGET, should be your mojo from now on, because you forget who you are and cover yourself with mansplainations.

NEVER FORGET you never have the balls to keep pushing for glory and never win anything.

NEVER FORGET you belongs to D3 only.
