CHB will be closing down as of 31st July 2021. It's been a brilliant experience to run the website for the past 9 years, however it's time for me to move onto different projects. Thanks to every single person involved, from staff, former staff, posters old and current. All support means more than anyone knows. Thanks for your understanding.

Just didn't have the time mate and had such a big roster with so many boxers I couldn't do it half hearted.

Game world will be reset this summer, and the game relaunched with a few tweaks & improvements. I'll post up more details closer to the time
Is it worth joining the game now? Like if I start now will I have people with similar level of fighters available or is everyone's fighters already very high level?

you won't get anywhere near world level in the current version, but its worth playing now just to get the hang of it a bit before the reset in the summer.
better getting your novice mistakes out of the way now
Definitely making a return in the summer.Need to remember to keep my stable manageable this time!
Cheers Rooq

I will be back in the Summer, having a play around with it at the moment just to get my eye back in, but I have to say that the switch from three hour days to two hour days was my big issue. It sped up the whole game and I'm generally just too busy to keep up with it. With the faster days (a game month is only just over a real 48 hours, and given I can't play weekends I'm losing months before I even start!), my fighters were constantly being left for too long between fights and ended up unhappy with me. So the switch from three to two hour days dropped me from the game. I get that others wanted a faster game day rather than having to wait for things to play out, but unfortunately I had the opposite problem. So I'll have a go in the Summer, but with the game now being so complicated with so much to keep up with, and a two hour day, I'm too busy to be anything other than a casual sorry. Great game though, just too intensive for the 2020 me.

ST, you aren't the only one who thinks 2 hrs is too quick.
I'm warming up to the idea of switching back to 3 hr days when I relaunch in August.

Well that would be just dandy, but please don't let me have an overly-impactful influence just because I am the only one who posted in here! I have no idea about the profile of your average player (don't know if you do - hard stuff to capture, these days) but I might not be the average profile, given I have four kids (and now one taking GCSEs and my youngest still in KS1, so a proper spread) but work from home, albeit running two businesses. So my weekends pretty much disappear into the kids, but during the week I am often at the laptop. So I can (and do!) do a bit of game maintenance while sitting at my desk, particularly as a chunk of my time is spent literally staring at a screen waiting for things to happen. So a switch from two hour days back up to three would make a real difference to me. But as a 45 year-old with zero time off I might be entirely typical or an odd blip. No idea!
Remains a great game, kudos to you. Just a massive time sink as it stands - genuinely can't fault it otherwise. Chapeau.
