Has this basically fallen apart, or is EVERY team still on board? Only takes one team to break it, so we would need the backing of all 32 Gold teams.

The Crackers wont purchase custom EQ until the truce is broken... the chances of every team not buying one piece of custom equipment are slim and none

Considering both of my teams have Boosting and CEQ required i would say that there was no decision reached on this thing.

I really cant grasp why this is so difficult. You have a choice between spending money and not spending money. I prefer not to spend my money if I dont have to. There is zero difference between everyone having it and everyone not having it. But, a handful of itchy trigger fingers cant resist. Looks like I'll be making a visit to paypal soon. Awesome!

you don't understand why people aren't willing to risk the success of their season on the "good faith" of others?

I dont understand why people are in such a hurry to spend 600 flex per player two days into the off season. This was discussed last season in the hopes of making it happen this season. Guess you didnt get the memo.

The way I see this is for some teams its really expensive to win. Teams like Chicago, Cascade, Fightig Gamecocks, Dharma, Crackertown, to just name a few off the top of my head. FOr teams like me to win it's cheap. I make 3-10 players a season for Shortbus and so it really doesn't cost me much of anything. If you have a team of 30 agents it's really not expensive at all to play. But yeah if you have to create all yoru players and then some agents having two teams they have to create a lot of players for I can see where that could get really expensive. The last 3 seasons I have spent more flex on other teams than my own team. This season I cut back and probably cut back more next season. If it cost too much, then recruit and cut back on yoru spendings. As long as Short Bus is around, we will always be custom and boosting period. Well until the day comes I have to make 30 plus players.

With that said I do support any suggestion of making it cheaper, as I would like it cheaper for every agent that makes me players so I am all for that, but going no custom will not be the answer IMO

I am recycling flex until i have none, so boosting and CEQ helps me get out of here quicker!

Short Bus winning and playing on an elite level with so many agents is VERY IMPRESSIVE. The drawback is having agent issues that can derail a season. I think your reputation is good enough where you get top agents that want to build for you. That not as practical for most other owners.

As a Pee Wee community we need to continue to make noise about reducing the elevated price of Short term builds. I think it will happen eventually but I thought it would happen quicker if we all took a stand and didn't custom EQ for 1 season.
