I don’t understand your argument as you are both old players with experience.

Ok, there are some simple scenarios.
- Forbidding the negotiation transfer for more than once in a season is obvious.
Only the cheaters would stand against this.
- But permitting nego only the last week, has nothing to do with some exploit.
If they did that by mistake, after all those objections in the forum and in TE fb groups, they would recall it back.
But you see they insist to that too. They want to end negotiations.
So what other case we have ?

- They did that so remove the extra income of tokens the managers can have from buying 3*-4* young players from the auctions and sell them for some tokens with nego.

- Remove the option to build your team with some good players from nego list, so to buy only players from auctions or scouts.
Yes, nordeus has some profit from nego transfers too but if I want to buy a young player with sa from auctions, I would pay 30-40 tokens the first days, all to nordeus.
From nego list, I would give 10 to nordeus fix price, + let’s say 7 for the other manager, +7 for nordeus again. So in total 17 tokens for nordeus instead of 30-40.

So @ gogs67 why do you believe that nordeus is open to changes for improving it or find any solution ?
