As it is now A Player in Pee-Wee is marked for retirement as he is 3 lvls behind a Rookie come season2.
Either combine Pee-Wee with Casual ,Which is a duplicate,
Or leave a say day 47/48 3 free boost for Peewee players to compete at season2.

Yes I see something missing from Beta
And Yes the play pool reduced as a result

Actually no. To allow some of those that still believed in slow builds to continue to do so, GLB made it so that you can catch up a missed boost/season's boost (which would be 3 boosts) at the end of the dot's construction. So you can still take a PeeWee dot (which starts at -3 boosts from the gate) and still hit level 79 at the end.

No... there's some similarities but PeeWee teams cannot advance, nor build stadiums. They can, however, use advanced play calling and AI setups whereas Casual cannot.

Not really needed since it's been explained above. Overall, most people that play PeeWee (either team owners OR dot builders) know it's a one and done system. Even the way dots and equipment are handled differently. Dots can move freely between Casual and regular leagues... and, no matter what, if you miss a boost or miss a season's boost (3 boosts) and still have your dot max level at the end. No matter what you'll be 3 boosts behind until you reach that end... whether you built a PeeWee dot and kept it or simply missed your boosts.

I hope this is a joke

No this was the answer i needed

I started game as a slow builder so I do hold some of those views,that was not the subject here.

Make up boost at 76 is not really the same as the OP suggestion, since that doesn't make him competitive at lower levels on the way up.

The real problem is that if you build for pee wee, your not making a dot that will be competitive in the long run even if you make up the boosts.

That said, I like the idea

+1

Caveat, unless it winds up being an exploit somehow, aka makes the dot too good due to some quirk in the timing of the build process.

No not quite the same,
,I was missing the thought that the player will eventually catch those 3 lvls.

That changed my question somewhat,its still 8 seasons away until then. So with the adversity to slow build here its no wonder agents were run off So That ends any suggestions I have as it gets run on a subject I'm not commenting on.

pw builds should be nothing like a normal build. if you want to build long term, then go with the normal leagues. pw players should be built for 1 and done

The one thing that didn't get said is why NOT simply let PeeWee dots boost early like any other dots. It'd make PeeWee a bit more exciting without changing anything else at all. PeeWee teams would still not be able to advance to normal leagues.. dot's could still be built PeeWee style and be one-and-dones... or be built normal and continued without needing to wait to 'make up boosts'. That's a suggestion I could +1 and even GLB would get something out of it because more flex would be spent building PeeWee (only) dots because of the extra boosts. It'd also make sure that EQ would get it's second upgrade BEFORE the playoffs. Something I always thought was a stupid thing about PeeWees.

the point of pw was created for the 1 and dones. there's no need to allow boosting when there are other options for those players.

But that doesn't change if early boosting is allowed. PeeWee teams would still be relegated to forever remain in PeeWee leagues. Dot's would become more competitive in PeeWee's by allowing early boosts so the games would be more interesting (a common grievance). You could still build one-n-done PeeWee style dots if you wanted. The only thing that would change is the level of play in the PeeWee leagues and the amount of cost to build PeeWee dots (the extra boosts).

I would oppose early boost /prior season.The idea I put foward would to award the boosts at completion of a full season so then 6 boosts,3 awarded.The players aught to earn the boosts not just given.

doesnt change for the team but doesnt help the new player that comes in mid season. i've always thought of pw as for none boosters. but it still comes down to the fact that a good pw player is not built the same way as a normal player, so there's really no reason to put a long term player in pw. if you let pw boost, then there's absolutely no reason to have it any more.

It's not 'given', Shep... it's simply changing one little rule that effects one system (PeeWees) overall. Right now any dot can boost early (before day 48/end of season) and most do. PeeWee's simply have a rule in place that says a dot cannot be above level 0 when signed AFTER season starts. Removing that stipulation would allow PeeWee dot builders boost 'early' and still build PeeWee style dots and recycle them if so desired. ALL dots can boost early no matter what... it's just a matter of what dots can be signed by what teams.
IMO, the original rule was made LONG before we made changes to the dot building system... long before the game came out of BETA. Once they made those changes (to dot building), the reason for the rule (IMO) ceased to exist. The argument about it effecting PeeWee negatively is also (IMO) wrong.
Guppy is right that, if you build a dot to WIN PeeWee games, it's built differently than dots you build for the long haul. Still, people do keep their PeeWee dots (I use to) and take them to Plateau. They're not complete trash... just not quite WL quality. My argument for allowing early boosts for PeeWee's has little to do with making those dots more competitive on down the road... hell, it might even make them worse. But, for PeeWee dot builders and team owners, it sure would make PeeWee's more exciting and fun. (IMO again.)
