Well tanking could be made more difficult, if they really wanted to. Just put increasing penalties to gate receipts if your team keeps sucking every season (meaning instead of just the previous season the fan survey uses an average of previous seasons and is much lower if you were bad for several seasons). Also increase fan mood of the team if you're close to the average payroll of your league, so that if you're massively below (close or below the salary floor) again your gates are reduced more than they are today. This isn't the right thread to discuss tanking though, I'm afraid I'm going off topic :).

Look, with all due respect, do you really think a lot of people would come playing in a micronation?

From my experience in HT, where they did exactly this... yeah. I think heaps. Oman (my 2nd team league) went from a barely-full 2 divisions to a very active 4. There were other micro-nation leagues that filled faster (Oman was 2nd on my list - 1st being Jamaica), and I was lucky to get into Oman.

Yeah but that's because to play in higher level divisions. Most managers claimed to want more competition, not less in the Utopia discussion, hence you'd assume they would not want to go in a micronation.

In any case they could just limit it as well on a first come first serve basis, so you don't overrun the community with too many foreign managers. I think a minimum of 1*16+4*2=24 teams should be present in any nation though. Once you get to that number, you'd need to keep a reasonable ratio between local and foreign. I'd also lock the access for foreign managers if most D2 are filled.

Of course, they should do on a first come first serve basis.

I think there is a lot of potential in opening real countries to second Teams - I would never join Utopia, but would love to join a real Nation. (Saudi Arabia, Japan, Macao would be on top of that list)

But do they need you there?
Actually I'm with you on this: I would gladly join Japan - there are some nice people there in their forum and if I could choose other country except Bulgaria, it would definitely be Japan.


Well, now I am waiting for some guys to tell you that even Austria does not need me. :-/
