Every team in debt

Queensryche · 03-23-2007, 06:42 PM

I'm using CubbyFans 2007 roster set and at the end of the season,just about every single team is deep in the red. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Just one example below:

Raise the media revenue, it's way too low for that league. Put it at about $20-25 million average.

$11 tickets with a $103M payroll and barely no media revenue? Does not compute. Are the other teams all skewed like that?

Thanks much,Ill try that out.

Yep

That helped a lot,but it seems the budgets may be too low. Do you have any idea what this should be set around? Thanks.

Moved to Mods forum- Rosters area where answers can be gotten much faster.

Much faster? I had quicker help on the General Forum.

Why not just edit the budgets so that every team has some budget room? A little time-intensive but it should do the trick.

I started doing that,but I wasn't sure what the right numbers for the different teams would be. Could you give me some sort of estimate?

I would just look at the line in the upper left of the screen you posted that says, "Proj. Budget Room" and add the number there to the current budget to make budget room zero. Or if you're doing it during the offseason, you could add, say, an additional 20% more of budget room for each team so that they can sign free agents.

Whats a good ticket price usually,seems like most of the teams are set around 10 bucks.

$22 average price in 2006, per this site.

I think the default for ootp 2007 is $15 ticket prices.

FWIW I found that just using Cubby's old roster set in the new game carried over some of the custom values we needed to make 2006 financials work correctly. That's why I exported the rosters and imported them into a fresh 2007 game. Or you could go through and reset the values to the default 2007 values.
