band aids are a last desperation move in my book....

No, they can play. Nowhere did we say "non boosters can not play". They'll probably end up in the lower tiers with one another.


Probably could mean that they do not. as well.

It would be nice for once to know if anything will be the same from season to season. Is there a list of what does work, and will not be changed from season to season? I think that would help people see that there is some stability in GLB. Right now it's nothing but drama every season.

dry your tears, it will be ok. I fall into both categories and think solely age based leagues is a bad idea. Should be age then level instead of age then elite/normal.


age then then level = age then elite/normal/regular. lower levels will be in regular, together QQ

After the initial sort, that's exactly what he is saying.


elite, competitive, and regular will still be sorted by effective level so the non-boosters should remain together.


so why not make this even more simple and allow for some non-boosting leagues?

most of us boost anyway but would not mind having a couple of non-boosting players from time to time

just limit it to 1 level on non-boosters per cap, and when it fills up, no more room

yea I'm starting to disagree with this decision as I read comments. I feel that there is a better way of doing this to support non boosters as well as keep your boosters. Tbh I think glb is great and I spend a lot of time on here but these past couple of days we've been turning in the wrong direction with the dpc and now this

i assume your referring to yourself as a non booster. So your not spending money minus the initial player cost which is peanuts compared to the cost of boosting a player over the length of their career.

I have never signed a non booster to any of my teams becuase in the end they are going to get left behind quickly. They are just fillers for bad teams.


no, I'm both actually. Just don't see the point in spending the outrageous amount of money I used to anymore so non boosting LU was a nice option.

wrong. The one place you don't have a exploitable advantage is peewee, after that, enjoy competing against other similar level players of the same age (i.e. other non boosters

Non-boosters are only remaining together because they will suck and have to filter down to the worst teams in their effective age group. That sure doesn't seem like an incentive to stick around if you're a non-booster.

I played this game for almost a year before I bought flex and I'm sure there's many others. With something like this, I know I wouldn't stick around if I was new to the game and didn't boost.

Hey Catch - Can you float the idea of a Pee Wee Casual League Borts way to round out these changes?

If people would take a step back to analize the announcement, you will C that is exactly what the regular league will wind up being! For goodness sakes, the sky is not falling, this is good for the nonboosters, now they can play each other in a regular league without needing league underground
