Season 7 (392 days, player age 280):

3 levels
3 boosts
Player that boosts would be level 72

Season 8-12 (393-672 days, player age 281-480):

No game or training XP. Player enters extended plateau dependent upon number of boosts as follows:

20 boosts = 200 days (5 seasons)
-10 days for each boost <20
0 boosts = 0 days


Age 280-319 = S7

then

Age 281-320 = S8
321-360 = S9
361-400 = S10
401-440 = S11
441-480 = S12

If I am age 290 I cannot be in both my 7th and 8th seasons....

7*40 = 280, so you are 280 days old at the end of the 7th season

The way I am reading Catchs new S24-26 outline is that any players that are currently preps are younger will have to play last couple seasons in leagues where they are outleveled. For any of these players I beleive we should receive full refund. I agree with Tragula that dots university and older the new system is similar enough to get by with. Dots that are going to have to play a season or 2 underleveled though should get full refund. When age based system came out and it wasn't very long ago we were given build dates, and to make users who followed their guidelines be penalized is wrong.

Not that GLB or probably anyone who has posted cares but did anyone think about what this would do to any player that does not boost at all, or occasionally only. They can play Peewee or for one season then retire. Good way to come out of beta...

Come try this cool game play 1 or maybe 2 seasons before you realize you need to pay alot of money to compete. After that then go play "World Golf Tour". It is free and there you can spend money for better clubs if you want to but can still play for free, compete and have fun...

This should all but eliminate playing this game for free.... Wonder how many agents own teams but can't afford to boost players every time its available? Guess when the leagues get even smaller than they have over the last couple of seasons we will soon find out when these agents that own teams now leave GLB for good...

Now go ahead and slam me for being a leach to the game, I have owned a team for about 8 seasons (about 3400 un-returnable flex) and have boosted some players on occassion, just not the last 2 seasons...

Actually nonboosters will probably be more competitive now because they won't be missing as many levels due to boosts as before.

This. They still won't be competing in Elite but well built non-boosters can probably do okay for 3 seasons as opposed to the 2 they can currently do okay in.

This just seems like it will boost the higher leagues but kill the lower leagues. This shouldn't start at the beginning. I'm just going to throw out that it should start at lets say day 150 or 100.

I think it's not fair to Season 23 rookies.

Season 23 players will get 784 training points in the new system, the same as Season 24 players. But...

For Season 24 players, all (392 times) of the training gains will be multiplied by 1.6.
For Season 23 players, only partial (336 times) of the training gains will be multiplied by 1.6.

When both of them enter extended plateau, Season 24 players will be better than Season 23 players.

Please give Season 23 players a chance to get 90% refund if they chose to retire while the new system is going to apply after this season.

this, or possibly implement a new system for these aged players to get + additional % bonus tokens

Edit: Or give us some bonus tokens...

If this is right, it's a major, major issue.
