Same for me. I had Kawadia last season, Konoe this season Kawagichi the season after next season and Yasushi Yokoyama who will be on the team next season was my draft pick.

More frickin' evil-ness of II.1.
We lost 楽しい recently, and now the #4 team in the Great 8 - Terry Bogard - and the #5 team (MadRipper, who also happens to be the most promising "new guy" we've had in Div II.1 for a while) have been MIA for coming up on 3 weeks. Big 8's が失われることはありません is in the same boat (3rd in the B8).

The problem is that it's simply too damn competitive when compared to the other Div IIs. Teams that are inferior to 楽しい and TB get promoted, whilst there's a 5+ season waiting line for them. Frustrating... and generally I've only looked at it from the perspective of those near the top of the Div, but it must be awful for those who are sticking with the game - but even lower in the pecking order.
So not only are we finding it difficult to keep new players, we're losing the older, established ones too.

The G8 of II.1 has 5 truly active teams at the moment, the B8 4. This is the least active II.1's been since I joined BB.

Spoke to an ex-BB about this, but apparently "I'm only doing this because of selfishness on my own part" (to do with me not promoting). How very, very benevolent of the person in question.

That is pathetic....

I would hope that his attitude is the reason he is an 'ex-BB'... although many BB's are not that vocal in the forums, I think they would agree that the point you have spent time & energy explaining does have merit to be looked at.

It may not be super high up the priority list but I can't see how acknowledging a better solution could be thought up would show weakness from the dev. team.

Ignore the comments you received & trust that the right people will come across this thread sooner or later.

Yup, single most negative experience I've had since joining.

and 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th.

Hopefully we can get a double promotion from II.1 this season one way or another. Even a triple promotion is possible if everything goes completly correct.
