Transfer madness isn’t good when in seconds everyone is gone on the transfer list when it refreshers. Everyone panic buys and buys whoever they can to resell No option to buy anyone and have 6 players on the list if you’re not around and quick every 2 hours. If you’re in a big active league it’s bad.

Speedy scout is needed for leagues that don’t have timers enabled to speed the scout up then it would be better I think. Or more players needed to come on the transfer list every 2 hours.

Leagues that are not full of active managers then the event is great without speedy scout.

I agree with Jeffro.

This event only works on half-full competitions and outside of community driven events, even in FMS league or crew battles.

I suggest that GB postpone this horrible event to a later date. I suggest that Gamebasics first of all needs to include in the competition configurations that events for that league can be turned off.

With this kind of events they will even further break the fun in playing osm.

Transfer Madness

Good events in August, I am happy to see no legends this time. This screws leagues up when beginners buy a few legends with a lot of their free coins. It happend to me in the preparation days in the Dutch First Division and I didn't have a chance to win that league since that happened.

About the Transfer Madness: this will work better when GameBasics also adds more foreign players to the transfer list. Can GameBasics do that during the Transfer Madness event? Now the transfer list is often empty within a few minutes in active leagues.

Please guys, don't make this a discussion topic.

People who organise events really need this schedule so we can make a good schedule for our events.

Wow, I totally disagree on this.
You say Legends event screws up competitions because manager buy legends with coins? In my opinion this is not due to the Legend event, but due to the fact that it is possible to buy players with coins. Also without the legend event, managers can use the scout to find players like mbappe, messi etc, and buy these players with coins.
Just part of the deal when you play in a competition without advanced settings.

To me, if there is any event that screws up competitions entirely, it is the Transfer event. All squad building isn't relevant anymore, it is just buying and selling, any advantage of a team with high goal is gone. Managers that can be online all day, especially around workers, have an enormous advantage. Without the Transfer event this advantage is much much smaller.
In really active competitions, the transfer list is not empty within minutes, it is empty within 1-2 seconds. Adding more players on the TL doesn't help much in my opinion. It just makes the difference bigger between the managers that can be online all day and managers that can be online only a few times a day.

Justice for "Transfer Madness". Greatest event of them all

They can do that by scouting Mbappe and paying a lot of BC compensation, but most beginners won't figure that out. The legends promotion encourages newbies to spend all their free coins in a way they normally wouldn't do. The more experienced managers won't pay 100 coins for 1 legend player. So GameBasics won't earn much with a Legends promotion. They just get the free coins they give to beginners back.

Also the Legends promotion doesn't work to encourage activity during the weekend. Like this weekend: most users login more often because the training is faster.

Any changes to this please? For example more on the list when it refreshes or speedy scout etc? Or is it just the same as the last couple of times?

Majstor Matt

@AlyssaGB Can't wait. Last couple days transer were a drag for me, very slow. This will surelly help

@AlyssaGB This event is great and all the managers love it.

It looks like the higher selling chance is activated, but adding 6 players to the transfer list doesn't work while it is visible on the top left:

"You can't add this player to the Transfer List because you can only have 4 players on the Transfer List at the same time."

Koning Co

Still not working, I hope the promotion will be extended to Monday 10 AM (or longer if it still doesn't work before the next worker today at 11 AM).

@AlyssaGB

It's the 3rd time this happens and now it's too much.
Last 2 times instead of 172 coins I got 2 coins, instead of 344 I got 4 in total.
Now instead of 258 coins I got 3.
In total, instead of 602 coins i got 7. Who will compensate the rest of 595 coins?
Before you start the quiz it's one story, after you complete it it's another.
What a scam!

@4RI3S_ I also had this problem but it was solved.

complete opposite my friend, almost nobody loves this event.
its the worse event there is hope that this time they will give a quick scout with it or more players on the transferlist.

but it is what it is, we have to deal with it

Majstor Matt

@Dave-Jansen_NL Sure, I guess that is why this event always has the most upvotes in this topic
