Season 41

[Ljepoje]

Just looked at his stats again. He is 3SKP from a 58, so 33SKP from Q60 and 7*. Thoughts now?

Hmmm... It's a tough one, But you've got 700-odd tokens to burn... I know scout list refreshes and 2 new players appear, but that player could be gone in the morning and replaced by a duck or you could get a better player, basically its a bit of a mini-gamble waiting for the refresh tonight.

Yeah, agree with July. It's up to you, if you have 50 green bags then go for it. But if you decide to buy him, then do it today since the list will be refreshed* by tomorrow morning (*what the h*ll that now means since only like 2 players, mostly 28-29yr olds gets replaced)

I did a mistake the 1th day, I saw a 24yr old AML/ML/DML with a shadowstriker ability, only 6SKP from 7* but thought, "aah I buy him later, the list will not refresh".. But the list did refresh (4times that 1th day) and he was gone. Since then, I haven't seen any ML or MR on my list.

Made the same mistake I did last season then, saw a good player (just bad SA) and had a good think about it and when I decided to buy the player, he was GONE.

Yeah, and I kinda regret it as well. Okey, he was 24 old, but he was a good 24yr old. Both Vidić,Olić and Salihamidžić are 24yr old and 6* but they play and score almost better then the youth.

And now my list is just crap, and I dont understand why on earth there aren't any ML or MR avaible? There are more AML/AMR and DML/DMR

Btw, our friends (FC KULA) seem to have decided to "TANK" the season or something. He sold his GK this morning and a DMC or something took his place. I hope he doesn't quite the game, would be boring.

Thats a shame, But him tanking the season is almost as good as quitting the game because you won't be the same level anymore. I guess though if being at the top level and all the T-Buyers just buy anything good, then he is soon not gonna be able to compete without buying any T (except if farming is available).

Yeah, but I believe he is trying to play "illegal formation" for the season to come and due the meantime just farm Tokens and cut all expenses. You know just stockpile as much as he can. Then when he feels that "okey, I believe now I can buy some descent players without being outbidded all the time" then he will start to be active again.

He isn't a T-buyer, but he has been having a quite good squad since lvl 2 (all 5* + couple of scouts) and been my 1th challenger and rival in the league + cl. I think I would consider to "tank" myself a couple of season if I didn't buy any Tokens.

Yeah sometimes the going gets tough being surrounded by T-buyers dominating everything that you struggle to even get one player cheaply where it comes to a point where tanking is the best option rather than spend countless seasons trying to qualify for CL and eventually trying to just promote, at least when he tanks there will be players above him, but even still he may have to tank for even longer before he starts getting regular 5* players on the transfer market.

Where I am at L19, most teams now are at least semi-active and even some 5* teams don't even promote every season (erster for example) and I have been placed in leagues with teams with 6* players because they are active but failed to promote, either by tanking or just a bad season.

Youve seen my league, 2 T-buyers (myself and Batigo) and 6 teams with strong squads because they didn't promote last season.

Yeah, hopefully. Will try to follow him and see what happens, perhaps he lost interest or something. I know that he didn't attend to any of his games the last 2 weeks or so. And with the holidays to come, more and more people will become inactive/not so present (or semi-active as you say). I will go on holidays next week myself. tut I plan to manage and maintain my team from the Iphone.

And as you mentioned, I believe the higher you get - the more semi-active managers you find. Don't know how it will develop on my server, but I aim to stay put and try to hold on.

Yeah, your league looks tough. But at the same time, it's always good with some competition. At least if you manage to win the title, you know that it was hardearnd.
