Doubt it would be granted ....Botflush is just a one-off event to ensure a full 1.1 at season rollover , it's not really designed to be requestable in order to keep the division tidy on an ad-hoc basis.

It's not about keeping 32 human teams in the league, I meant that it would be better if it could actually start out that way, and by the time the season starts we won't have a full group because some will have gone bot already. It seems unfair to have a botflush only to give us more bots when the season starts.


I know what you meant, but the point is that Admin probably sees the 'starting point' as the day of season rollover rather than the first league match of the season ...don't shoot the messenger !

Following are in danger of going bot:

Toxic Robots last logged in 4/21
Salamanca last logged in 4/30


There are also 2 teams in red financial trouble Kolin and Mad Rabbits. Neither has players for sale...I hope they are just waiting for league games to begin to right the ship.

Toxic Robots just gone Bot ....some teams just got lucky.
I've got the feeling this season that the 4 teams to get automatic relegation and the 4 teams to go into the relegation playoff might not necessarily be the worst teams in Dragons 1.1 ........ I just looked at the schedules and there is quite a significant proportion of good luck/bad luck in who you play.

This season there may be teams that finish 3-13 that are actually better teams than some that finish 5-11 or even 6-10.
Having said that, I don't know how the schedule could be amended to make it fairer for all.

Relax .... it's just my very British sense of humour ...it's very 'Fawlty Towers' ....maybe it doesn't translate across the Atlantic very well.

note my "lol"

I was only kidding around. "It is all good all the time." One of my favorite tv quotes. From a show called Dark Angel with Jessica Alba. There is a character who used that phrase often....

I have noticed however that there seem to be more upsets across the board in the first two weeks than one would expect.

I'm glad I'm playing a bot next! Not only is my TC low for those players but my PC is also low for them. I need about 3 real life weeks to get my roster back up and running after my massive flurry of position changes and purchases/sells on the TM. The last batch I'm selling is my last batch I plan to sell for a while. Future purchases for a while anyway are going to cool down. I hurt my team in the short term but improved for the long term.

imo, The spread in quality of the newly promoted teams is quite large ...some teams are obviously the real deal (aaarrrgh ...I'm sounding like an American ), some teams are new or new-ish and can't really be expected to be big-hitters at this level yet.
So it just seems to make for a league with quite a large spread of abilities ...whether there will continue to be upsets is difficult to predict.

However, I do think that Dragons 1.1 is rapidly becoming a league of quality teams. I remember Monkey once saying that Admirals 1.1 is the toughest league, I don't know if I buy that ...I think this league can more than hold it's own.
