I am assuming everyone has sold out all tickets so I was wondering what your stadium improvement plans were. How much do you plan on adding?

As much as i can afford. That really should be every team`s policy in the offseason, spend every penny you have on the stadium and you`ll get it all back and a lot more at the start of the following season...

Akihabara needs 3.5 million banked after re-signing everyone to be able to build every other 100 level part. But I won't take out the loan or build everything til I know the off-season is almost over, gotta take advantage of the 10 day period prior to paying interest on the loan. But what's 5 million dollars in internet money?

yea, aiming to net 3.5 million for the offseason and I still haven't sold out the last couple of games yet. Trying to get retarded prices for those tickets heh.
With 3.5 million I can finish the lower section of the stadium. I have eq bonuses to send out with renegotiating of contracts that may make me come up a little short I'll have to wait and see.

mingren - Don't you feel like you are playing Madden on Junior Varsity level? Wouldn't it be more satisfing to build a team of different peoples' players? GLB should let you spend all those flex points on stadium upgrades. It would seem to be easy to control cost when you and chakula have all but three players on your team.
I hope you win the championship this year and move on to a bigger better league.
What is you plan if you do? You are going to need to sign better players in a higher league. I guess you will have a good financial start with your stadium 1/3 done.

Honestly, I had no idea that my team would be as successful as it has been. When Chakula and I started building this team, we figured that we would need at LEAST 2 seasons of levelling and gameplanning to be able to compete with the other teams in the league. A lot of the builds on the All-Stars are quack experiments that I figured would need time to come to fruitiion. To my surprise, they've been successful since the pre-season. Did I build this team thinking, "Man, we are so gonna rack up 50-60 points a game on comparable teams?" - Hell no, I thought we'd go 3-13 at BEST our first season.
I think a lot of teams in Zeta can beat us, especially come the playoffs when the level gaps close. I don't expect to win out of this league this season. If I had to pick the two teams moving on to AA I'd pick the Russian Winter out of the Alpha and its really a toss up between Prague, Long Island, and the Red Army. I believe all 3 of those teams will be better than the All-Stars come the playoffs.
If by some chance the All-Stars get promoted, I'll do what I've been doing. Focusing on making my builds as good as possible while playing as well as I can against teams that will be 5-8 levels above me. We'd probably go 0-16 and get relegated back down to "A" - That's just life.

I doubt you would lose every game at AA if you went up right now. The level gap closes so fast, and there would probably be a gutted team or two. Gameplanning makes such a difference.

Easy for you to say, pretty easy to negotiate with their agents when they are all your players! Ha

I`m pretty sure i know exactly what the build of his RB`s are - Clare the Silver-Eyed Killer, who`s having the most success, has very high strength while Teresa of the Faint Smile is more of a speedster and therefore has more modest figures. The nerfing of tackling in the offseason was taken a bit too far in my opinion and high strength RB`s are breaking a ridiculous amount of tackles.
The problem is that there`s little point in trying to build your player that way now as by the time you get there the goalposts will most likely have been moved again and the strength issue will probably have been nerfed and they won`t be as effective.
And yes, there`s little doubt that the All Stars are the class of this league but the question has to be does anyone really want to move up? Any team promoted from this league is gonna struggle badly without a major overhaul of their roster. I would never deliberately lose a match but part of me is really hoping we won`t get promoted...

Agreed. Still, you can never assume you will get promoted and if we have a chance, we will definately take it.
