Yeah..we are doing alright so far. (Good last game indeed...lol) We could use a couple more D-men as only having 3 of them is wearing their Stamina's down a fair bit. People are getting a lot of playing time though and thats a good thing. I hated being on a computer run team and getting 10 minutes a game when I was close to the best LW on the team.

Nope, they are staying. I'm giving everyone shifts, as long as you understand that some may only get 1 or 2 shifts in a game. If it bothers you I'm trying to find alternatives.

I think I might leave the team as is for a bit, as I don't want all CP people gone. I just did this because losing sucks, and the rest of the division has increased in strength quite a bit. Only person I'm thinking of moving is Deryl Boomer as he's the only odd one out.

You really should upgrade your arena... more seats = more attendance = more income (to a point). Could be bringing in $500,000 more per game than you are now.

I'd say an increase to 21,000 would be a good start (probably done in stages due to cash).

Right now I have a total of 34,900:
8,300 (iceside)
11,900 (middle)
14,700 (higher)

Try going for:
4,000
6,500
10,500

Some may notice their huge lack of ice time in the last Bellator win. I didn't intend on that to happen and I'm not sure why it did. Less than a minute in the entire game doesn't even equal one shift, so something is buggered. Don't fear!

It's worth it though. It'll let you grow quite a bit and help retain existing players with larger contracts. What's your ticket prices set at?

Ok, I was kinda worried as Halifax Drunk got 0:58 seconds of ice time, and Crippled D-Man didn't even get a shift.

FYI - Crippled was my buddy's player but he transferred him to me as he wasn't logging in and training him often enough.

The forum on pricing is either wrong or is hiding information. I last tried --75-50 and sold the place out. So keep sloping up your prices until you see an attendance drop. And then decide if your Machiavellian or if you're a purist.

I have purchased a new team in Canada Div 10 called the Calgary Schola. This will be used as a farm team to the Calgary Bellators.

If your player get's a new contract offer from the team, please accept. I'm streamlining the bellators a bit more (which requires moving a few players, even some of my own), but it will result in more play time for you against easier competitors.

The following players please check for contracts (I moved my Pablo Powers already):
Deryl Boomer
Crippled D-Man

Also, if anyone else is looking for play time and a contract, let me know. I won't sign a lot so I can keep the time focused towards the main players, but I'll consider others and most are still the 10 value PC controlled players.

hey have you noticed anything weird when you check out your teams last game stats???

My stats arent adding up ... it will say one guy on my team scored 3 goals but we got beat 7-2 or something like that ... or on my teams page it shows that we are playing 2 games a day against the same team .. stuff like that

Haven't noticed anything with my game stats (yet)... but I do know on the forum there's a couple divisions having problems with scheduling and stats. Some teams are playing double games and some are playing no games, so in turn it's messing up that Div's stats. Last I heard they are working on finding the problem.

Nice!

Did your arena upgrade yet? There's also been a bit of delay in the upgrades actually taking effect, even though the money disappeared right away.
