First of all there is no way in hell Seattle has or ever had 100/100/100 fan support. In fact I don't think they've ever been close. Not with their longest win streak being 8 games.

The best way to make money is to win games and build your stadium as quickly as possible. Selling away players that just doesn't make sense unless they're not needed at all and judging from Seattle's decline, 14-2, 13-3, 5-4, I'd say they were needed.

Well we had a 12 game win streak last season, which is the longest in the conference as of right now, we have never really made a point on losing, 11 wins first season, 13 last year and now 7 out of 9 this season...and its chilling at 45 and I dont know the team high but I know its not much more then that....how are other teams at 100/100/100? and I cant even come close?


We are at 100/100/70 or so. I'd doubt anyone still around here being at 100/100/100 although Coruscant and maybe Cleveland might

100/100/91 though we should be there before the end of the year.

Yeah we were at 100/100/100 before the Stallion lost. Now we are back there again.

I never said I had 100/100/100, in fact it is and was 100/100/53.

I would not have done what I did except for losing my first game to the mustangs. I had my depth chart screwed up and they are a very good team. So at that point I knew if I did not beat the Cajuns I would have at least four losses on the season. I did not think that would get me a home playoff game and even if it did I did not think I would get another. So with this in mind I decided to make as much cash as I could and also get my backups max xp by having them start either for Seattle or Miami. I also decided to use the season to refine my playbook.
If you check my schedule, I like most of you have a fairly light back end. After getting past Atlanta and the punishers I have a real chance of winning 10 straight to finish the season and go 12-4. That would take care of any support issues I had which turned out never to happen.
So I may get my home game and the cash from Miami and buildup my backups all at the same time. I do not think I can or could have beaten the top three in the West so I think this was a good move for me. I also think next season will see a much improved Seattle team.

We will see.

actually: 13-3, 13-3, and hopefully 12-4.

My stadium has been paid for except for the two 300 sections and I have maxed out the seating in the existing sections. I don't think this move has caused me to lose any games that I would not have lost anyway. The only one that could possibly have been different was against you, but honestly I think you still would have beaten me.
I sold out the season in the first few days at an average of about 2.4 times the expected price so this did not effect my income there either. Next season I should be bankin and hopefully be able to hire some plyers that I dont own. Money is the ownly way I will ever be able to get away from being a one man show and still be competitive.
I could recruit players now, but they would not be high levels and things would really get bad. So I'll have plenty of cash to try and get some high level guys to come on board. If Bort gets the new player features in place then cash will be important to agents.

Thats the plan anyway,

Take my advice tciss. Start looking around quietly now. If you don't have all your new players before Offseason, you will have a hell of a time. I have already started feeling out my players to see who is for sure staying, and who is for sure leaving. So that I may begin recruiting now.

I think he is bringing his guys back from Miami. At least their contracts end at the end of the year

I am but I will retire them or trade them as I find replacements. May be slow going tho. I have so many players on so many teams it has become a real job to keep everything straight and keepup with everyones forums. Got to consolodate or retire a dozen or so.

Early recruiting is the way to go. It's just chaos in the offseason. Luckily we've had basically the same team since the beginning of season 2. I generally ask around this time which players if any or planning to leave and start working on replacements.

On the fan support issue, it's very tough to get high income to 100. Like I said earlier, I think it took a 14 game winning streak for us to get there from 0, so it was only 2 games more than the nudists, but those 2 games probably got us 10-15 points of high income support.

Atlanta's owner went AWOL



Lack depth everywhere on defense and need a new owner.
