He should as long as he is on a team and playing one play a game.

Ok, there is no way in hell I am reading all 42 pages of posts. But, I read enough to know this...

Admin says that all money related posts will be deleted. WTF?

Really? Isn't that what this change is all about? Are you kidding me? You want to institute a drastic change like this to the game, that dramatically affects flex use, and yet don't want to listen to and hear about the monetary impact this has on the users?

Holy crap, that is some load of shit yall are putting in my head.

I am not happy.

No one said that all money related posts would be deleted (if you're referring to post I made on page 2, that was in regards to some revenue based calculations that I had posted that I was asked to remove). And the monetary impact on users is minimal and in many cases will be a gain for them.

ok ... not sure if this has been addressed ... but with the new league restructure on the horizon, one concern for me is the placement of my team. Will the team end up on the bottom, middle, or top of their age bracket?

That's a BIG WHAT IF factor for me ... if in the lower half of that age bracket ... why even keep the dots or team? After the shuffle, your team can go from being top of the class, to being a tackling dummy for older dots .... who would want to do that?


So Catch22, from this gRryNn's post, will teams that are in the top of their leagues age bracket still be sitting on top? Or will they be mid tier, or even bottom tier? This is important, as players that are used to being on the top of their age bracket would probably retire their dots, if after the new leagues are implemented, they were on the bottom of their age bracket and league.

Thanks for mapping that out.

Will the limits for the # of TP you can save up still be 14 for players not on a team, and 30 for players on a team?

Unfortunately, no. We make an exception for one small group we'd have to make exceptions for a larger group. Cutoff is simple, if you're in EP, you'll stay in EP. If you're in decline, you'll say in decline.


Yeah, that's fair. I was just irrationally hoping.

A player that is 40 days old in the current system will be 40 days old in the new system. Don't really start changing to a different age until after that point. Don't think they lose any training days.

Not sure if that answers your question so if it doesn't, reclarify please.



Doesn't answer.

Everyone make sure to build dot on day 40-41 since you get an extra off-season and an extra set of boost compared to a dot created mid season (not the only reason, but a big one). If due to the conversion a dot created on day 40 (a few seasons back) will get to age 440 in mid season then this dot get less TPs and boost then planned.

The conversion I seen before day 360 -> day 207 seems to do the trick (ie effectively make a pre-season created dot to a mid season one).

Specifically for my Lv59 dot, I have every TP counted for and losing 32 TPs and the BTs coming from them will be extremely annoying.

Because that was based off of bonus token values.

The XP to SP conversion wasn't.

LOL I designed it, yes it was.

Two Training points = 3 bonus tokens if on light, 50 XP
6 bonus tokens, 100 XP ... equivalent to two light trains (thus double the value of the 50 XP)
1 skill point, 200 XP ... equivalent to 12 bonus tokens (thus double the value of the 100 XP)

Yes. Training is still going to cost 2 TP.

We're going over and evaluating this currently. I'll post details once we've figured out precisely what we're going to do (if it varies from original outline).
