I don't mind playing boosted teams. If I loose then I can say it was because they were boosted. If I win then I look like a stud. Boosts do not guarantee a win, but they do make the great teams even better. Gold is not as easy as it was a few seasons ago. I posted a link to a great no/no league for over two seasons and no one was interested, yet people complane about playing boosted teams.

I agree it is too expensive and I am one who can afford it. I wish was a flat fee. 1 season 20 dollars 55 players who get free boost and custom then forced to retire day 41'

The fact that GLB made fielding a boosting team easier was what killed the movement, not me or anyone else in particular.
It wasn't. I don't remember names, but I remember a big discussion on LE's forum. If it was you, I would have said so. I'm just terrible with remembering whose who.

If that discussion is what you are talking about, I think I remember what happened and why we couldn't keep the movement going.

A certain someone tried to get me banned for running the no/no league, after that failed they managed to at least get them to not accept our trophies.

Been playing pee wee since it's freaking creation, helped get the damn league created back in season 7. Ya know what? We had boosters then too. Oh my freaking God are you kidding me? Then guess what? We had a shit ton more boosters back then when the game was even more expensive.
Bort has been catering to you guys for ages, Hell he can't make the game free like you wish he would. We got a huge break on EQ when he cut the cost. Pee Wee teams if I recall were even a little cheaper because we don't have the VAs and extras. He even gave us a passing boost so we have somewhat a realistic sim to deal with. Back in season 12 and 13 you could only run the ball. Imagine that, 25 plus teams boosted and only had a freaking running game to use. At least now there is only 10 boosted teams this season, 10. I would quit winning with that knowledge. There are a LOT more boosted teams in silver than there are Gold. I am sure someone else will take your place.
BTW I spent my own money on the game, don't freaking cry to me how I can and cannot spend it. Shove your guilt trips right up your bungholios!

Stoner and I boosted because we could. No other sinister motivation behind it.
The things being suggested are almost as old as pee wee itself. Like LE stated, this is a business for Bort and Co. and they have already given plenty to the pee wee community. What you are suggesting belongs in a league type of its own and if you really want to see the end of pee wee then by all means keep pushing for changes that divide the league.
I personally gave up because I'm just not a good coordinator and I think Stoner forgot all the passwords to his account(s) so it was a lil lonely.

It's not that I am cheap, i would even go as far as pay double that per season ($40) but the way the game stands, it just doesn't equate into reason enough to pay the current price for 55dots with boosts and custom EQs, etc ...when it comes to managing a team full of agents, nobody does it better than you LE ...but the majority of agents that want more control of a team can't possibly be expected to find the support ...all you need is one rogue agent on your team, and the season is a rite-off! ...this is why I think it would be best if everyone had their own fully equipped team and did away with that dependence on others (there would still be a community aspect through the forums if everyone owned their own teams, but there would be more of a community for it this way) ...my vision may be different to most others, but I have heard argument against this suggestion that some don't want to control a team coz it too much time and effort ...so my thoughts on that are why can't we make the building process more simplistic for peewee to maintain 55players if we each have a team? ...why couldn't it be done so that all we do is maintain dots in groups ...who says that we should even need to build/train them individually? ...it could be done by positions for example, instead of DT, it could be done as DTs, CBs, etc ...or alternatively, it could be done as Dline/Oline/STs?!?/QBs/DBs/RBs&FBs/WRs/TEs(imagine an auto train for each group) , and maybe have a few options for 'specialist dots', for a scrambler and some other specialist builds to give a team some individual traits and slightly different structure? ...I know it's just a pipe-dream

no it belongs in a world of common sense! ...paying a set fee per season and owning your own fully equipped team, would encourage a growth in the userbase, which equates to profit in a business sense! ...am tired of all the nay sayers being so narrow minded to a drop in prices ...more people would play this game, which would make the value of this game even better coz of improved activity on the forums and the competitiveness of balanced leagues! ...yes i said balanced leagues, imagine that! ...bort only gave somthing back to peewee coz it was his gold mine for a period of time, and the interest there was fading fast ...all he has is the current userbase which is on a steady decline and it was merely a knee-jerk reaction in an attempt to try and hold onto the customers that he already has ...just a drop in the ocean compared to what he could be giving back!

You would get my vote.
Might I add if the teams where made with 60 dots instead of 55.
You could even go and split the cost of the team up by 30, 20, 15, 12, 10, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 ways in addition to a single person owning the entire team if for some reason that would be more attractive to some.

Or it would be fair for no boosting in peewee allowed. CE won't change it completely and could be optional. Instead you will buy team with nothing developed in it and buy plays options for custom plays and etc. so that buying a team for a season would be waste of time and money so everyone will be buying it for a long period for developing.

Too bad Bort doesn't let you give him even more money per season so that you'd be able to get over 100 yards next time. Hey, at least you avoided demotion, so that money wasn't totally wasted.

Join an "Underground League". It beats the shit out of peewee because it's illegal to boost or CE, and the teams progress through the season's rather than getting reset each season. It's the only reason I still log into GLB...
