I would agree. Its only going to take one and with D-Town not on board that all it takes. As for Bort im sure the answer will be he doesn't make anyone Boost or Buy Custom EQ.

Okay, lets compromise. That is what discussion is for right. Lets all coach our own respected team next season. If you can't coordinate, don't know how to, then bring up a Silver coordinator that can get familiar with the Gold style league. That is perhaps the only way a Silver coordinator can experience the harsh game planning and tactics Gold offers. This will not only make an even playing field, but will make Gold a stronger more diverse league in the long run as other coordinators determine if they can even stand coordinating at the level gold offers and they will gain experience from game to game. Almost every game takes some game planning to a point with players tactics set, and training up to par to be successful. This is without hands on the AI's. Which is a whole different animal.
It is obvious that the reason you can not own more than 1 PeeWee team, is so you can not hoard in a particular league. Well that is true because of a league wide shuffle in Silver with 8 leagues (yes I agree last season was not a shuffle it was a placement). However it is not the case for Gold League when there is one league with no shuffle. So you see teams stacking coordinators and even as a team gets closer to playoffs you see even more of a stacking system regime going on as semi finals in playoffs approach.

I say you can not be involved with more than 1 Gold Team on the books. (This means NO AI activity, or Head Coaching/ Owning- Co Owning multiple Teams.) Everyone wants diverse? Make it 100% diverse all the way around is how I see it!!
Then I am all in for 100% of the OP.

(If it is a compromise I am gladly on board)
(I have spoken my opinions, hopefully clearly enough and respectfully enough as to what I believe is fair)
I will not post in the thread any further so you can determine whom is on board in just. If there is a question on my beliefs I will answer a PM, so it does not tarnish the thread or create for argument.

If he's not on board, then I'm not either. I have the flex.

Catch22 is doing the Q&A right now. I asked about CEQ for one and done pee wee players vs career players having to only buy CEQ once, was never answered. Quite anoying

I guess my other questions would be, How would GLB make it so you couldn't keep the guys past day 40? Then with the answer to be coding, why would GLB spend the time to do all the coding work to end up getting less money? My third question is How many agents in Pee-Wee buy flex or are using up flex they had already purchased? So if more people are using up flex then buying it it may not be the Cash Cow it appears to be.

Good point. I guess it could be a matter of retention... they are going to keep more agents in the long run if they make it a little more reasonable to create one and done dots. I've said this before, I can't get any of my buddies to stick with this game. The cost is too high and just building a dot or two doesn't bring enough enjoyment to someone that is new and doensn't have their hands on the AI.


Another point I want to bring up, is if we do get a slightly higher rate of return on Flex it doesn't just help Pee Wee. It helps new agents that mess up their builds in the first season or two..which happens 95% of the time.... Also helps seasoned agents that change their minds early on a build plan or have a sim nerf destroy their build plan idea. That's why I think the higher rate of return should be more than 1 season. Even if it's minimal, it will help.

D~Town stayed on catch22 last night during the Q and A and finally got him to answer. Here's the question and response below-

D~Town
"Was this question not answered because it is out of your jurisdiction? Or something that is not going to be considered?
Many of us owners in PeeWee and especially PeeWee Gold make so many players and would be delighted with some sort of discount on one and done players. Inevitably GLB is built for long term players I understand that. However we play season after season with one and done's to stay competitive.


My feeling is that one and dones that buy CEQ and boost then retire after one season should be offered some kind of help.
We would come up with a formula if it would be honestly considered and something that could be compromised. "


Catch22's response
"Wasn't answered because I don't know the answer. I've already supported the idea but me supporting it =/= it is going to happen. Is there a suggestion thread with support? If so, pm it to me and I'll do what I can."


^
This is encouraging, we need to draft the Suggestions thread, agree on the thread, then post the thread.... and then PM everyone we know in Pee Wee to +1 -


I won't have much time until this afternoon to keep up with this thread or even attempt a Suggestions thread - I would also like to have some time to scout Dirty Inc for the Pee Wee Cup game tomorrow... so I fully expect MikeinFl to post a whole bunch of jibberish on this topic to side track me today j/k Mike.

MMD will be no boost/no CEQ again next season just as we were this season (and are a borderline playoff team, come on 8th seed! ). I'll also be running a no booster/no CEQ custom league again next season (we just started the playoffs for season 1 of this, it went over semi-well and will be stronger next season).

I will be on board with the newly revised thread requesting financial parity assistance for one and dones.

(I know I am not great about it myself, but I will do my best and encourage everyone else to do there best to stay on topic in the new reform thread) Please make the thread exclusive about cost and how to rectify the burden we have as building many dots with little reward. One and dones will not make it past level 14 if you wait to boost, I think they should be made aware of the max level we are achieving consistently at the time of retirement.

I'd like to see the refund increased for players that are retired early in their career.

0-40 days old = 90% flex refund
41-80 days old = 80% flex refund
81+ days old = 70% flex refund

This would help Pee Wee's and new players who boost immediately after creation without knowing why that's a bad thing.
