BuzzerBeater Forums

Congratulations, Izaman!
I will follow your team as it was mine.

Special thanks also to the one who voted for me... Good luck.

I still don't know why you are so worried about farm teams...You should be worried about yourself and getting caught ripping somebody off with your prices. 2 million for a guy with a TPE of 650K-950K. Only two of your players are priced in the TPE's range. And some are priced at 2 times as high. My favorite..66K for a $1000 player..You better hope nobody hits that report button on you. It can't be that hard looking at transfer records...You have already been zapped once for this and now you are a BB staff member. That means they are watching you super close. Hate to see you get banned again..

Now 10 of 39 is pretty sad for voter turnout. I really wonder about the 29 teams that couldn't be bothered to vote. Probably half of those we've never heard a PEEP from game time or otherwise.... how many are farm teams? Seriously.

Voted... but really? There are supposedly 39 people here?

WARNING: It is against BuzzerBeater rules to bid above market rates on a player. Our cheater tools may detect this as an attempt to transfer money between two accounts, and BOTH teams may be banned.

The TPE is directly linked with the cheater tools. Why would you say it is wack, maybe because it has caught you before.
I remember that Japanese big you sold. what was it? 1.9 million for a Player with a TPE of 750K. I'm just saying. They let you back in, why would you do the same stuff again. They even gave you the LA gig. Greed is a killer I guess.

I haven't seen anywhere in the rules that suggests that buying undervalued players and then reselling them for a profit is illeagal. They just impose a tax on it which prevents players from getting flipped for pennies.

In some ways this activity keeps the market efficient and insures there are enough interested buyers. These same efforts are at work in any market in the real world.

The main thing the rules say is cheating is to transfer a player for much more than his value as a way of transferring funds. For example you can't sell a $2K a week player for $2M. But if a player is estmated a being worth $200K and someone is willing to legitimately pay $500K for him then his real market value was $500K.

I'm not accusing you of cheating. I'm just saying,"Be careful"..Thats all. You have already been zapped for it once so why risk it?

This is not correct. Like I said. I saw a player get sold for 1.9 million and he had a TPE of 750K-900K. The GM's fined this manager 700K for selling the player. His market value didn't become 1.9million it was still 750K-900K.
And your right..It isn't against the rules to flip players but it is against the rules to put a player out there at 3 times his TPE and hoping that someone comes along and hits the bid button. This game is called Buzzer Beater and it's a Basketball game, it's not called Ripoff.
PS. If it is true that there is a Team Chemistry code written into the game(the longer players play together the better they will play), then why would anybody have everyone on their roster for sale knowing that it's only going to hurt their team in the games. Even the fan survey has it written in. It's a little sad that our former NT coach and LA is all about Day Trading and flipping players and not about winning games or training Japanese talent. You train players to make your team better not to make a fast buck when he hits 80%.
