To prevent teams from sticking around at higher levels to keep their stadium and team cash, the following will be implemented if a team does not meet the league minimum level requirements or field a roster of at least 30 human players. This will be determined by a team not receiving any media revenue the last 3 game weeks of the season. Token media revenue will be added to leagues that currently do not get media revenue so that we can track this.

So what is the rule - I need 30 human players at the min level for that league or I need enough to qualify for media revenue?

Same minimums for media revenue, already in use.

Then shouldn't the announcement say that instead of this?

this is from the media revenue announcement:

In order to keep teams from gutting and sticking around in the higher leagues just to get the cash (and thereby messing with the other teams tsk tsk), there is the following requirement to be eligible for media revenue:

- Your team's human median level must be at least as high as the league human median level - 30%, and you must field at least 30 human players.

For instance, the USA Pro median level is currently 56. Therefore, you would need to have 30 players at a median level of 39 to be eligible. Anybody who is carrying a team that is actually trying should really have no problem meeting this requirement in AA+. For a general guideline, just look at the suggested levels for the league, and subtract a couple levels from the bottom end.

in today's announcement the rule just stated 30 human players above level 36 (the minimum signing level for the uncapped leagues), but then you just said media revenue is the way to determine this

so which is it?

there are bigger issues with equipment than how much they cost imo

So since it's not before season 15, if I demote this season, I'll be alright?

What if someone is going from level 38 to level 34?

Bort, what do you think about permanent maximum money caps? It'll prevent farming for cash. Any incoming funds accrued after hitting the cap are simply lost. This includes money stored in the EQ fund.

AA - $125,000,000
Lv 46 - $115,000,000
Lv 42 - $100,000,000
Lv 38 - $85,000,000
Lv 34 - $75,000,000
Lv 30 - $60,000,000
Lv 26 - $50,000,000
Lv 22 - $30,000,000
Lv 18 - $20,000,000
Lv 14 - $10,000,000
Lv 4 - $5,000,000

good point - demoting on day 41 is still season 14

More Current CAP 14 teams lucky enough to drop before this new rule

you need to re-work those numbers - they are beatable without doing any cash schemes at all

Excellent change.

Can't wait to see the EQ fix.

The system we are currently working on figuring out, proposed by a tester, and similar to some other ideas in suggestions revolves around the concept of removing the team->player money transfer via equipment, since that's the main thing collusion is based on, and instead have players directly pay for their EQ with the currency they have, and teams pay for more team-related options.

Think of it this way:

- Players have currency already: time, tokens, SP, morale, energy. Make eq and training cost based on that instead, and let players get EQ more easily. Players then are more in control of their destiny, instead of relying on a team, and have all the same options. The only thing salary really should do for them is keep their morale up and maybe buy some bling.

- Teams have cash as their currency. Let them use that to upgrade their facilities, advertise, and pay their players to play (not to make them vastly better via EQ).

It's a fairly major change from what we have now, but I have grown to really like the idea and I think doing things along those lines would really clean up the whole mess and make it more fun for everyone. We're trying to work out the numbers and the ideas on things to add, etc, currently.

It doesnt say 30 human players above level 36 - it's 30 human players or meeting the median level requirements for the level they are at (this varies depending on what level you are at).

Off topic for Bort: Are my GLB baseball players going to be dots? Cause I love my dots.

Lol prob not. Working towards something more akin to RBI baseball tbh.

No. These rules are effective immediately. Stadium/Fan Support Deterioration will not start happening until season 15 however.

Not to mention that with the changes above, it may be a meaningless change.

I like how this thread turned into "How can I exploit this one last time?" btw, super classy stuff
