Less cheating proposal 2

Post by Frrfrr »

this is cont to proposals1
http://forum.soccerproject.com/viewtopi ... 9&start=30

copy last one proposal

OK, I have an idea, maybe not ideal, but more general and maybe solving cheating ... requires a bit more effort to implement. so here is the 1st draft ...

with every sale of the player, the seller would state his selling price as now - regular price. in addition he would post also fast transfer price. so each player would have 2 prices by him.

the player would be sold, if the whole auction expires or on fast transfer.
the seller would not be able to sell it on fast transfer as it is now clicking accept, but with setting up 2nd price he could get pretty fast his player sold in speed up process.

so if noone bids fast transfer price the player would be sold for the price in regular bid after auction expires - as it is now. if noone places bid even there, the player will return to owner. gegular transfer period would be as it is now 6-7 days or so ...

if someone bids for the player fast transfer price, then the player would be sold next day, unless anyone overbid within the day. if there is overbid during the day in this case there are additional 24 hours to make fast transfer. so the process of bidding fast transfer would be the same as it is for regular one but one day before regular sale

there would remain 2 days protection - no transfer policy as it is now, but the player could be sold immediatly after those 2 days and noone had made different bid last 12 hours before end of 2 day protection. if anyone has made overbid of fast transfer price during last 12 hours of protection period, the player would have to wait another day without overbid on fast transfer as was already described

just thinking about it could bring so many new strategies of acquiring players

this way the player would be sold pretty fast for pretty exact market price eliminating friendship low price sales. but of course it is a huge change

proposal 2 - updated and idea used mostly from forum made by HoriaciLes posted by Gustaav

the idea is when bidding the player to make 2nd bid ... the second bid would be automatic one

e.g. I made a bid 2M and second automatic bid 6M. so if anyone would make a bid of 3M SP would increase the bid to 3M + 5% made by me without me being with computer to 3.15M.
this process would continue up to the point someone would bid e.g 5.8M. then there would be no automatic overbid from me, while 5.8M+5% (290k) is 6.09M and it is over my second price

this idea is very simple, need thinking to realise all benefits, but would allow continue with fast transfers, but i bet this would make the prices much more realistic ... and cheating would have much harder life

Please, leave your Hattrick ideas behind ... SP is good in this was how it is now ...
Cheaters are being caught. If you find someone, report him. But do not want developers to make SP like Hattrick...

It's an interesting idea, but it's not watertight.
I would love to set a direct-transfer-price, and I'm sure many would like it, but it opens up loopholes for cheating and manipulating.

The Hattrick-argument doesn't apply in my eyes, we shouldn't look at them, but make SP the best game possible, even if that means making some parts work like it does on Hattrick.

I still hope there will be a better transfer-system some day, but it will be hard :?
