Some data on teams with forced retirement after four-five very short seasons, without EM and the new MVPs.


To be fair, for many coaches NCBB is done for the sake of NBFL.

To be fair NCBB proves that we don't need Seasons forced on us.

To be fair everything always confirms what Licker peddles from thread to thread.

Solving life, universe and everything may not be seasons' task.

How about 30?

To be fair, see what I did there? :}


The Blood Sea Buccaneers have entered their 14th season of play.

The team averages around 90-100 matches before the team totally implodes and has to be dismantled to the ground. Firing the vast majority of players and starting from scratch. I have done 2 seasons where I rebuilt from TV 1000 and TV 1050.

Teams like the Buccaneers who have over 1400+ matches in total..... we have built up, torn down, got torn down, beat up upside the head so many times we are always redrafting our team.

For tournament players the "beef" is that some teams are built up to the 2200+TV range, optimized and never ever play out side of tournaments. Thus, they never have to seem to rebuild or get beat up.

Some coaches want Season play just because it hurts the high TV tournament teams that only play in Majors/minors and smacks in R/B play.

Go ask Billbrasky what season the WMD in the Box are on. Most likely around season #50 with as many times as those guys have been decimated to the point of 4 rookie CW's and 3 Jmen Linemen. Some just remember the golden times when WMD are sitting at 2200+TV and plying their trade and forget about the 100 matches that follow when they are lucky to be at 1500TV and sucking it up in the Box.

No it doesn't. Not if it's voluntary, and you'd only end season 'cuz you're in Journeyman hell. Then it just documents it.

Are we talking about voluntary seasons? I mean it's great and all, but it's not been considered an option by anyone other than you so far as I know.

Of course it doesn't.

Those who can't arithmetic are doomed to advertize on their pet teams' behalf.

I added a tidbit to the idea last page.

To me that seems like the only way to give the masses what they want. Abortions for some, tiny american flags for others.

Then the question simply remains this. What is the goal for R and B? Once that is clearly defined (and again, it only needs Christer to accept the definition) then you can actually start to consider how to implement seasons (if at all) and what the effect of different lengths will be.

The current definitions of R and B (as I understand them anyway) seem to be at odds with the effects that seasons would have on them. So, change the definitions, or don't add seasons to divisions which don't need them, or, as it seems from the limited polling done, want them.


Read the help section on Ranked and Box as they have the definitions for each division.

Ranked is a place for competitive open TV play within the confines of the latest rule set.

Box is a place for competitive matched TV within the confines of the latest rule set.

League is a place for user run leagues and other games to be played outside of the ruleset.

As seasons are a part of the rules (for better or worse) arguably the only division that should not have seasons implemented fully is League.

So if you don't want to play them make a League team and play without season

Thus we arrive once again at square #1 of this discussion.

How many games are we going to set a "season" at in R/B?

Good thing we have the seasons thread to make up for the death of the Clawpomb thread. We'll easily get to 100 pages if we keep going back to square #1 Laughing
