Change in how credits are used to purchase teams Topic

Posted by schwarze on 3/19/2026 3:46:00 PM (view original):
Isn't there a link somewhere that shows how many theme leagues people have created? I have to believe I'm in the top 5. If people like me or thejuice6 stop creating/running these multi-league, multi-round tournaments, that will significantly reduce the number of people buying teams.

I often play 10, 15 or even 20 teams at a time (during these tournaments). I only do this because I have a ton of credits. I would certainly cut down on this if I was going to pay for 50% of these teams. I also have over 130,000 reward points that I haven't converted.
I'm wondering now if I should convert all my reward points and buy teams now ... 130,000 is a lot more than I have, but I feel like I ought to cash them in now.

I cashed in almost 150,000 a few days ago...wasn't going to take a chance.

wasn't going to take a chance.

We shouldn't have to guess.
This should be explained clearly.

It's an "update" that will have a very significant impact for some of the most active players and league creators.

It deserves its own specific announcement and a crystal clear explanation that leaves no room for guessing or interpretation.

So you cashed in for 16 six-packs (96 teams)?

When was the last time they raised the price of this game? I literally don't remember, I feel like is been $12.95 a team since I started.

People pitched a fit when they reduced the rewards for OL's as well. Pretty sure a bunch quit.

I couldn't care less. I pay a couple bucks per team, if it goes from $4 to $7, I"ll still play.

When was the last time they updated this game?

Pretty much everybody who's expressed their discontent in this thread have made it clear that they wouldn't mind the change provided they get updates in return.

The point is, don't expect customers to be thrilled to pay more money for a product when the product has not been improved.

It’s a double edged sword man. They make updates and then everyone complains about them. The game is what it is.

They just made an app, which a lot of people asked for, then a bunch of people say they don’t like it.

True that, to some extent.

Updates don't guarantee the expected or hoped outcome.
Back when they updated the games regularly, most updates needed tweaking. What was really cool was that the devs listened to owner's feedbacks and it usually worked out for the best after a few tweaks.

It's also true that when they had come up with dynamic salaries adjustments, which was a great idea, it didn't work out as initially intended, but then again, all it needed was adjusting the formula, so that lesser used players' salary could decrease.

I personally don't need the app but the talk about bringing back Live Play would do it for me.

Yes...it takes a little while to do so.

They made an app for 60% of the people, with no timeline for when there will be an app for the other 40%.
