I think it's hilarious that every time Marin posts anything it's always the same few managers that come out and choose to disrespect and attack him no matter what was said.
I don't even know why he bothers posting in any forum anymore.

Anyways with that being said, it's about 50/50 for and against the hoarding tax.
I guess the old saying that you can't please everybody applies here just the same as it applies in life.
But to those of you who disapprove the potential tax, what would you do in place of the tax?

I believe I read that someone would like to tax only those who are making massive weekly profits. This doesn't seem like a bad idea to me. Perhaps set a maximum weekly profit for each league based off of the league average salary in a similar way that TV contact money is done?


I think raising the salary floor would be a good way to make sure teams keep a competitive team in the league.
It took me a couple seasons for my homegrown Utopia team to finally pass the salary floor, but that's okay. I'd have been okay with it if it was even higher.

Fan survey should be tuned up. Why dont take into a count amount of accumulated money from few previous weeks. Compare it with rosters of other teams in league and create fans expectations. Once i have 16th roster and am 15th in amount of money in league my fans shouldnt go crazy after lose abroad to f.ex. 8th ranked team. While when i am no1 in economics in league and 14th in roster my fans should react accordingly..

Excellent excellent idea!

Now this, this is reasonable, and makes sense.

Also, seeing how IRL (bad examples usually) that this kind of poor use of $ etc leads to coaches and GMs being fired from their team, give it an impact that will be meaningful but not excessive.

I don't disapprove of the tax, but I have seen plenty of reasonable alternatives proposed, too. Mostly, though, if they turned Buzzerbeater into a basketball sim instead of a play-for-profit exercise I'd be happy. Then we wouldn't need to worry about taxes.

I make around 250k a week (while spending 40k on scouting) and still expect to make the Playoffs- all that with a team below the salary floor- bots make this possible.

How should I be punished? I am not tanking...
