It really "takes longer" to "slow build?" Wish we would have realized that before...

Jeez Phire, you idiot!

exactly my point slow building puts you behind. With recruiting top players you can get better faster results. You must be a child to have to result in name calling. +1 on Idiot. Good one

Sorry, I don't read this forum much.

Listen guys,

We've been here since Day 11 of this game coming out. This is our 3rd team - the team we wiped to create this team was pretty sweet but not perfect. We want perfection.

Look at our team ID # - http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=190

It's 190 - yours is 1330.

Either way, we don't recruit players so we have a heads up on you there. I can understand the frustration with trying to find new players, and communicating what you're doing with all of these individuals and how much of a pain it could be. We don't have that problem because we're a Guild of online games who've been playing games together for years. Rather than having to find 50 individuals to build a team, we just threw up a post on our private forums and got 40 people to buy into it. No issues.

Does it take longer to get good? Yeah, but when we get there, you guys will know it.

The quick route to the top leaves you weaker than you could be. Believe me, we've been there, and it's not as good as it could be. Anybody who's putting points into Special Abilities sub level 25, is taking on shit on their player build... Unless your goal is to win the BBB Title, and then quit...

Just FYI

OK. So, this is your thrid season, right? Obviously you won't win BBB this season (3) or next(4). So, the earliest at which you'll win will be the team's 5th season. So, half your career is gone before you have a legit shot to win a title in BBB. Then, you hit A(6), where guys like me are still going to outlevel you by 15-20 levels. No matter what your build strategy, unless we do some really stupid stuff 15-20 levels will crush you. So, lets say you get crushed season 6. We get promoted that season(should be about the time we'll be able to win it at A). Season 7 you have a shot to compete (not win, but compete) in A. Season 8 you get lucky do well in A and get promoted to AA for season 9. Season 9 & 10 you play in AA where, again, we outlevel you by 15-20 for season 9 and you might beat us in season 10 depending on the decline rate.

So, where is this grand advantage to slow building? You piss away your first five seasons. We were competitive in every season excpet our first, which made the game enjoyable. We'll both end the same spot, but I didn't spend the first 5 getting routed.

Your career first of all doesn't end at Season 10

You start to Plateau in Season 10, and do that for a few seasons, then begin to slowly decline before your guy ultimately retires.

And you aren't going to out level us by 15-20 levels, just fyi. While you gain 1 level through XP per season, and 3 more boosting, we'll be gaining 4 or 5 per season and still getting 3 for boosting. So it evens out a lot faster than you think.

You do realize that we knock off teams with average 10 level disadvantage all the time, right? Sure, we get plowed by teams that are built half correctly, but there are a LOT of people out there that don't have a clue.

Either way, you'll see in a couple seasons. And believe me, I WILL remind you.

If I didn't know what I was doing, my team wouldn't have 64 million in the bank, and an entire roster of people making max salaries. You will see...

I thought slow build meant you didn't boost.

You can boost, you just stock pile SPs until a stat is near soft cap from just training then use a SP or 2 to cap it, rinse and repeat for every stat that your position needs.

Puh-llleaasse. Pontiac war kittens...didn't you arrange a trade up after the charity promotions? I know you were here before that. Is that your 15-20 LEVEL advantage at work?

Yes he did get a trade up, but if he were here, he would be blowing everyone away....that is the reason for the restructure...to put his team where it belongs.

They weren't able to get out before the Assassins took care of them in a defensive battle though. 12-9, I believe was the score.
