Due to the schedule of some team, the price is dictated by it. I can't seem to be able to keep the guys that have been most productive for me because they have such weak schedule and mainly because i don't want to take money loses. It also make my team suffer, point wise because the player that were racking in the points for me, now i have to trade them... Damn i wish smallworld went back to once a week money update.

Amen to the change back to weekly repricing. This is my last Smallworld season, unless SW goes back to the weekly repricing format... IMHO The daily repricing causes you to have to stay very involved to maintain competitiveness and therefore hurts the casual players ability to compete... I had heard at one point that SW was considering having two games per season, one each with daily and weekly repricing. If they can maintain that, I think that would be the best solution to keep everyone happy.

I prefer the weekly repricing as well. I didn't feel such pressure to make panic trades for cash last year. You were able to make more long-range plans.

I've found that I just do my trades regardless of the daily pricing (in other words, as though there was weekly pricing). Over the course of a week, the price changes will favor those with better schedules regardless of short-term changes, so I've tried to concentrate only on those players with upcoming schedules that are favorable in the 7-10 day range.

Of course, this whole political thing has thrown my hockey teams out the window, but my intentions are good!

Ignore money, go for points. The money will come.

BTW, trading away a player that has been producing for you should have nothing to do with money, and everything to do with schedule. If you do this, you negate the daily repricing.

The main thing daily repricing does is force trade management. You can't spend all of your trades without the possibility of getting burned by an injury. I don't have much of a problem with the daily repricing, because it's similar to the game. If you put all of your eggs in one basket in real hockey and one of those eggs breaks, then you're up a creek without a paddle. Same thing in SW.
