NOT allowing me to have a team in a larger nation is complete retarded nonsense and BS and it is the #1 reason I can never ever have any respect for the EGMs or BBs at teh end of the day. I guess I do respect them, they are human, and I often actually do show them respect...but these must be weak stupid moments on my part. THeir insistence on forcing me to play in Japan makes me question if they are actually human. Maybe they are some alien hellspawn.

We love you too.

Did that just happen or is it me imagining things?

You didn't. But to counterbalance your second bolding, there is the end of the sentence.

And we love the end of the sentences most of all.

I would happily take my talents to Pakistan (<- not I'm not a James, I mean my trainees) if I was allowed to move my second team to a selected list of BB countries. As long as I can keep my 3 trainees and the arena seats (maybe with a 10%-15% haircut), I would be happy for all my other players to be put on the market and my bank account erased. Similarly I'd be happy to have no voting in the NT elections and any possible local stuff for local managers. It's like killing several birds with 1 stone really:
- have someone playing in Pakistan so that the guy(s) over there don't feel too lonely
- get more players on the transfer market
- sink money through the sale income going down the drain and erasing the bank account (if seats were portable you'd need to devise some additional measures)

I do think that the population under a certain number is unsustainable and will inevitably go to 0.Filling 1 league everywhere would remove at least one of the problems people who sign up in nations like Pakistan face.

Yeah I read several times that teams are needed for the international competitions, but my reasoning is that, with some exceptions, most of the guys who start playing in an league with mostly bots will not stick around for long, also because they don't have any progression to look forward to. If you start in DV it's an accomplishment in itself to reach DI one day, these guys, they just start in DI or DII and they play bots more often than not or human teams they can't hope to beat for several seasons..

I'm 100% OK with this as well!

Might just be easier to aggregate nations into macro-nations whilst keeping one's home-based as the local country. Think KHL (sans Putin on Skates and money) in Hockey and so forth.

We have too many nations for the number of users we have.

BB is about a 10 nation size right now. 20 tops. We have 70 or so too many DIs.

We got 99 nations but...

The problem is, that there is no solid plan on how to merge all the nations and plenty users would be in a position to lose status/money/players... A full reset would be a possible option, but then again many many people would quit instanteniously.

Right now its too fudged up to be fixed without major damage inflicted... So probably leaving it as it is and doing nothing (like usual) is the only way to go.
