So removing that exemption makes them go bankrupt faster? Or are you advocating for removing the salary floor? Becuase the latter won't (and shouldn't) happen, as the salary floor is a key component to reducing the effectiveness of established teams deliberately tanking down the division ladder to build up a large war chest.

What you are saying makes no sense. How would removing the salary cap exemption for 2 seasons stop the above? I don't think you understand what the salary floor exemption is. It is not a penalty. You are talking about teams not building up a sustainable infrastructure which defeats your argument. The salary floor exemption is there for new teams to allow them to do that by keeping salaries very low and tank to build a strong base. If a team chooses not to do that then you can't help them and they are in no worse of a position than if there was no exemption for new teams.

What you are describing where someone buys a high salary player would happen more if there was no exemption as you might as well get a decent player if you are paying the salary anyway.

Training a player who you think could make our u21 National Team? Message me to check in with progress towards the team.

I’m asking to shorten it in time frame only.(14 weeks)

But some have expressed small nation and etc. It’s something buzzerbeater admin will have to figure out in systematics.

I can't understand why,
When a team is subject to a lengthy salary floor protection period, it can lead to a situation where they're forced to allocate a significant portion of their resources towards player salaries, even if it's not sustainable for their current financial situation.
Or do you mean you're not referring to regular teams here, but rather those teams that bought a lot of high-salary players before the playoffs?

I agree that a 28-week salary floor protection period encourages teams to keep their player salaries low and then buy a lot of high-salary players right before the playoffs.
But I guess (though I might be wrong) that most new managers usually don’t use this kind of high-risk strategy.
This kind of strategy is more common among returning experienced managers or new managers who were taught to do it this way.
So we might need to be careful not to teach new managers with this kind of experienced-player mindset, or it might ruin their gaming experience.
