    Because you can't expect the same 24 people to show all the time.

    Honestly, most of the squads who look like they're stockpiling players just don't axe their inactive ones. Anti-Scrub has 54 on roster, sure, but what does it hurt to keep the 15 or so that aren't active on roster? If you axe them they're not going to go anywhere else, because they're not even active.

    And if somebody who's active likes their squad, why should you force them to leave it? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Players will only take so much shuffling around before they get tired of it.

    If anything, instead of cutting people from their current squads and forcing them to do something against their will, we need to get some new players involved.

      Or the active players could just go and make their own squads. 24 people is enough to run a league squad, if the guys are committed enough.

        If they don't WANT to, they shouldn't HAVE to. Not everybody has the ambition or patience to form and run a squad. But I agree, those who do should not take the easy way out by just joining an existing squad.

          you right but there is one problem...
          continuum is old game, and like every old game, the amount of players decrease, or we just need to publish base more

            If your looking for squad's that aren't going to dissolve mid-season, 12 teams is easy, 14 is a stretch, and 16 is gonna be pretty tough to achieve.

            However I don't think a roster cap is the solution. If you ask me, there should be no roster cap; if a squad wants to have 40 player's that should be the squad's perogative. There ARE enough baser's who play the game to have 16 squads. The question is, will there be 16 squad's that will last. Personally, I think the only way to achieve longevity with squads would be to have ?go base bacome as active as it was, say, a year ago.

            This is when squad's form the most, because there are a lot of "newer" players who often times are not known enough to make it onto many basing squads, thus squads like rejected basers, hillpeace, tenure, etc. are formed. So, if you ask me, which no one did, the solution the problem is to advertise for go base when it dies.

                so, since my squad has a bunch of no-names on it we're considereed a newer training squad?

                well if u think that..were not

                we're training like what, 2-4 pubbers on the squad just to get them better? (btw Kai- owns hard) but now since i'm bein nice n shit i take in a bunch of guys who are worth it, not no names, just aliases, and i'm considered a new training captain of a new training squad

                funny stuff considering we weren't even founded like a bunch of basers who couldn't get into a good squad so they made their own (archant, burners) we were formed by me and Rab cus our captain sucked so we overthrew him and took all the basers we stole from other squads
                thus hillpeace

                  Veh ... imho it's fine to have as many players on a squad for TWD. But for TWL, we want the highest level of competition, active competition. I think there should be a 24 player limit for TWL ... it should be the big boy league, no BSing/fooling around ... straight up you have to be active and competitive to stay in league.

                        Fixed.

                        You try so hard to be good at this game, and all you have to show for your effort is a squad full of players that are only there because nobody else will take them? Get your ego in check, dude. You're the exact kind of person the basing community as a whole doesn't need or want.

                            Let's go back, thix. I said, "...because there are a lot of "newer" players who often times are not known enough to make it onto many basing squads..." No where in that statement does it say your squad is a bunch of no names, or does it say that your a training squad. It simply says that new squad's form when players are unable to find a squad they are happy with. I may have worded it wrongly, and I apologize. Don't jump to the conclusion that i'm shitting all over your squad, i'm not.

                            However, you squad is a breeding ground for newer players, which is why new squads are a necesity. They bring more players into the basing community in the long wrong, and add a little bit of competitition to the division and the league.
