Nice work on sorting out these Omegas and Flashbacks, you've done well to please everyone effected fairly.

Here's a random idea that just came to me, instead of +5 on cards that you have 3 of, what if it was +10/15/20%?
It's a little more difficult to figure out, but it provides better reward for collecting more of 'better' players.

eg. 3 x Kade Simpson = +20% = say 100+20 = 120
where 3 x Zac Dawson = +20% = say 40+8 = 48

instead of both just getting a +5?

More reward for collecting better players?

I quite like that idea. Obviously not for this season but it's one to think about. Not sure how I'd fix someone like wells though, he's a bronze (so easier to collect) and a +10% would be a huge 10ppg basically. Probably less deserving than someone collecting 3 buddy franklin golds for a +10% of the same amount.

Is there any chance of revisiting this? Because at the moment there's really no reason to keep 3 of the same card for a +5 bonus when you have the option of trading them in for a silver/gold/plat. Could even just make it golds/plats only to make it harder

Wells/Kerridge +5 is pretty handy. In hindsight maybe it should have been +5 for Bronze, +7 for Silver, +9 for Gold and +12 for Platinum or something like that. Don't think we should change it mid season though and should stick with +5!
Gawn +5 becomes better than Goldy, so that's probably worth it btw :P

Was thinking more about Houli  :P, but I guess I'll just turn 2 of them into a plat at some point

Dahl will be back for finals 7 weeks he should be ready to go.

Kerridge was huge pick up.

Probably wouldnt have played Dahl in handicap week anyway.

you could always sell Hall for 12 gold.

that could be handy.

do kinda feel expanding the team numbers the same week as a bye kinda makes no sense.

I lose half my team and then need to field 3 more.

next year I will keep a much deeper list.

Technically it expanded last week because we chose 11 then as well :P But yeah, you knew the byes were coming, the event schedule has been updated for about 3 months so it is up to you guys to plan around it!

I know but didnt know teams were expanded till a few weeks ago when its too late.

I understand though the game is evolving and this is the trial year. Its ok im happy with my team.

I'll be honest, I was spewing when you bought Stef thinking we'd be in for 60s
