With finances being that much more important this season I decided to look around and see how the capacity is in the league. Here is the alpha conference.

The Fire Pit Alice Springs 25270
Hell's Kitchen Tasmania 15960
Lavastorm Stadium Molokai 15190
Green Mile Stadium South Australia 14940
The Dragon's Lair Sydney 14860
Ghosts Stadium New Castle 14620
Freistaat Bayern Stadium Illeshiem 13760
Strawberry Stadium Florida 13430
The Rock Easter Island 12850
Thatto Heath Park Thatto Heath 12520
Inferno Palace Gainesville 12360
Wheeling Island Stadium Ohio Valley 12280
Frostwolf Arena Orgrimmar 10980
Gunslinger Field Vanuatu 10580
Thrilla Stadium Manilla 9090
The Dragon's Lair Somoa 8610

Sorry for the formatting, I am kind of lazy. Still, I think team's like Somoa could potentially run into issues. If not this year then in the off season if they want to keep up with the Joneses.


And here is the Zeta

Blast Furnace El Fuego 18760
The Lava Dome Mauna Kea 18440
Dome of the Apocalypse Four Horsemen 16260
Pistons Stadium Pumped up 16260
Night Terrors Stadium Christchurch 15470
Redscape Stadium Redscape 15370
Ground Zero Bikini Atoll 14780
Coney Island Stadium Coney Island 14120
Death Valley Chinese 13440
Vallhalla Cimmerian 13100
The Rocketarium FPQA 11360
Wolverines Stadium Dunedin 11260
Thunderbirds Colluseum Tonga 10600
Island Breeze Filed Tazmania 10440
Shark Park Uluru 10250
Souper Bowl N Marinara Islands 8970

Bigger stadiums are the only way people can pay for level 24, 32 and 40 equipment.

That's really true, The Lavastorm are just hoping we put a winning team together so that we can fill the seats we built

I actually think you might be ok there. My capacity is a lot more than last year but at about 14k in seats we sold out all but the first game. And we were 1-15. I think as small as a lot of the stadiums are at the moment selling them out won't prove to be too hard to do.

Zeta doesn't have a stadium near Alice Springs' stadium, but Hell's Kitchens stadium would be 5th or 6th largest.

The Rockies haven't invested in the stadium much at all - thats just something I completely forgot about!

Whoopsee!

Yeah, I plan to chart the Zeta too eventually, just at work and actual work came up.

Right on the money. It takes 2 things to put people in the seats: a winning team, or awfully low ticket prices. I'm blessed enough to have more of the first; I've had the ticket prices too low for us, personally, but I'm getting better at setting that all the time.

I didn't get started on the right foot with stadium construction last year, and I'm ashamed to have the 4th-smallest stadium in Zeta. I feel awful about that. But, I have a better sense of direction with stadium construction now. If we continue to win, and can make do with Level 24 upgrades, I'll do much, much more work in the offseason on stadium construction. It's a work in process, though.

Yeah it's definitely been a learning experience.

I know. I wasn't bragging or anything, I didn't know my capacity was so much higher until I compiled the list. I just figured everyone might want to see it as well. There are some teams at the bottom that really need to up their capacity.

well, it looks like you have the first one down.

actually, when i started the Bandits last year, one of my former owners helped me and the first thing he said was my ticket prices were too low. to go above the recommended price. i did, and i still sold out my games. i did notice that the games i won, people bought more at the concessions.

I feel somewhat blessed to have assembled a quality team. Got out very early before Season 3 and got a jump on it. Just a lot of hard work involved to bring in the talent. I can see Chinese has greatly improved, and will be much improved over last year. We definitely have that game circled on the calendar!

Your last sentence is interesting, especially because I noticed the same thing after the El Fuego playoff win. People bought TONS of concessions, with no real change in the prices. It's all a learning process, and we'll all get better at it as we go.
