I have been doing a little research about the probable state of the U21 team for season 16 and here are some findings.

Here is every player of salary $7,000 or more.

POS Player Team Age Salary Potential
SF Aloki Peppin (14984080) NewHaikou (69510) D4 China 20 $17 756 Allstar

SG Hashmat Firosh (14983997) The Diamond Phoenix (50485) D1 India 20 $12 207 MVP (Owned by a VIP)

SF Stephen Frankot (14984076) BC A.Le.Coq (207257) 20 $11 585 Superstar (For sale right now but really bad defence)

SG Dharmakeerti Kumar (14983993) Indiens de Polytech (194805) D1 India 20 $11 440 MVP

PG Diganta Subramanyam (16287598) bryantFTW444 (33186) Canada D2 20 $10 005 Superstar

PF Siddiq Haque (17593922) Futuramax (53725) Peru D 2 20 $9 122 p-allstar best big man but has hardly played recently, I sent his coach a bbmail asking what is up.

PF Sarfaraz Ishtaq (14984023) Paranormal Investigators (164163) Poland D4 20 $8 650 Superstar Could be our best big man next season which is scary.

C Velmurugan Dey (14984068) West Ham Lakers (90735) England D3 20 $7 518 P-allstar. Nations like China will have 18 year olds with this salary and as out highest salaried C I hope he has been trained well. Very scary.

SG Indira-Kumar Najeeb (19143984) KV Bucks (50487) India D2 19 $7 128 allstar. Played once this season, ruined! Wasted. Gone. Team is a bot now. Gone forever.

PF Dhritiman Vikesh (18250443) Indiens de Polytech (194805) D1 India 18 $7 107 allstar. Coached by the same awesome team as Kumar which could be good but one is a PF and one is a SG so I wonder what the training has been.

And that is it. Scary isn't it. Everyone involved next season will really need to pull together to make this work.

It is a vary sad thing. Even in the IPL (Hope you guys don't mind if I call it that but it is shorter than calling it India 1.1 and it is what the top Indian League should be called anyway - Australia is a big cricketing nation and we have IPL games on free to air TV here every night during the season.) there are 4 bots. I also having had a VERY quick look noticed that not that many of the other top teas are training their Indian players and draft picks. Perhaps in the future informing people of the advantages of training your own picks can persuade a few more people to do it.

The Canadians do this every season: http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr... The Indian community should do the same. A bunch of teams will turn bot the Monday after the draft so hopefully they will have drafted some decent 18 yr olds that can be saved.

Wow great work yodabig :)
Hmm we're in fact losing some talented rookies...it might be better if the managers sell those rookies if they're not training. At least somebody else might train him and future be useful to U-21 NT or even NT.

That is an awesome link and thanks a lot. +1 ball to you. Funny it is in Canada, I know someone who has a current forum ban for doing stupid stuff on the Canadian forums.

I think India will be a lot easier as there will probably be a maximum of 21 divisions to be scouted and possibly less, I haven't checked yet to see how many division IIIs have real players but if the maximum players was 200 that means there may be real players up to roughly about division III.10. The good news I am on holidays so can do the scouting on Monday or Tuesday after the draft which should help whoever is running the team next season.

The bad news I don't know when the elections finish and the new boss is installed because we may need to save a bunch of players the first week. We should really figure out if it is 6 or 7 weeks. Maybe I will look up some teams now and do a study. A pity we didn't do this last week - but probably finding the oldest inactive but non-botted team should tell us anyway.

Do the bots also get the draftees??? If they do, are those draftees also allowed to be part of the NT?

The election is on thr 18th it says in the help forum. I'm not sure when the managers can run as the candidates though.

It will all happen on the 18th after the offseason processing. The BBs have also said that the site will be down for several hours so it could be Tuesday your (or my) time. Yes sadly bots do draft players. While they do draft randomly they still do end up with lots of good players because they usually are drafting before the humans. Lets say there are 15 bots and 1 human in a league and 1 great draft pick. Even if the human has the pick listed first on their board there will be a 15/16 chance that he will be gone before he gets his pick and often it is hard to pick the best player through your scouting.

Sadly anyone picked by a bot is lost to us forever. However if it is an inactive team and we put the player on the NT before they go bot then happy days!

Oh...damn we have too many bots. the BB should have done the promotion just before the offseason processing so that some potential prospects are drafted by the inactive teams and before they go bot, we can put them on the NT :P hehe life is not that easy now is it?

I hope there are some good prospects in this season's draft and hopefully drafted by those teams that do know how to train, or at least just planning to sell so that other managers can train. My draft seems to absolutely suck this year (last year too). Since I'll be the 14th pick, I don't think i'll get anybody worth training...

April 18 (Mo): U21Elections begin late tonight (EST). Please refer to the U21 "Election Central" page for further information about the deadlines to register and vote.

April 26 (Tu): U21 Elections conclude at the end of the day (EST).


The current U21 manager, LA-höfðingi, will have to assign players to be saved for the first week. I think he mentioned that he will be running for U21 manager in his home country so hopefully he can still attend to the Indian team for that week. If not, #23 can assign them to the senior team.

It looks like 7 financial updates is the timeframe for inactive teams to go bot. http://www.buzzerbeater.com/league/12596/leagueInfo.aspx?... For the first two teams on this page, the 6th financial update has passed and they are still listed as active.
