There has been some advertising on youtube NBA chanels and many new players have joined around the world but the normal % is 50% never even log on once and 10% stay more than a couple of weeks.

With promotion will not the II.4 best record bot be promoted?

If not this may actually make some point for fumoffu platoon or Shikoku Otaku to actually try this season.

Or maybe that player in II.4 is very smart and will win anyway with almost no roster or buying one before the playoffs while we have the pointless task of looking at Sharman here in II.1 and his $1,000,000 roster.

They will not promote a bot, so I think the 4th spot is in play.

Updating this post.....

It's now clear the II.4 will definately be won by a BOT team. I'm still fully believing that they will not promote a BOT out of II.4, leaving one spot up for grabs. From what I understand the team that would get promoted is the team that wins their conference with the best record but doesn't win their league. I think this is based on regular season performance which would mean Itoh-sama (II.2) would promote, but could be based on winning conference in playoffs and losing championship, which would be Shikoku Otaku (II.1). The only other scenario I can think of is they would promote the strongest performing of all non-winners which would be Fumoffu Platoon (II.1)

Of course I could be totally wrong and we get a BOT in JBBL. Either way we'll know in a few more days.

Oh, one other scenario, Sharman could throw the last two games, giving II.1 to Shikoku Otaku. In that case he promotes under pretty much any scenario.

Here's the updated list of pomoting teams, Listed in probability order.

II.1 - Sharman Gamethrowers
II.2 - Leaf Team 7 (99% likely), Mythical Man-Mouth (1%)
II.2 - Fire Country Trailblazers
II.4 - Itoh-Sama (80%), Shikoku Otaku (15%), Fumoffu Platoon (5%)

A bot never promotes....as in the saying..Bot sweep..

Those two teams keep loggin in almost everyday so maybe STO sold off his team to save the salary expense and plans to rebuild. We'll see what happens over the next couple weeks. Definatley not good to be that lopsided to one side but I won't complain if Sharman ends up back in the G8.

Final review before End of Season processing.

II.1 - Sharman
II.2 - Leaf Team7
II.3 - Fire Country
II.4 - Bot sweep to promote Itoh-sama

Will be interesting where people land both coming up and going down.

We start paying salaries this week? I thought I'd have another week of 'not paying'...

You'll have a competitive league game on Saturday... so your players will be playing this week and they'll need paying!
