Re: 09 Rules: Free Agency Counter-Offer Minimums
Yeah, that has come up before and I was intending to add but slipped my mind yesterday. Will be some adjustment to the bid checking scripts but not too bad I don't think. Especially as more leaning toward higher jump in the minimums a percentage would make more sense instead as mentioned the larger ...

09 Rules: Reality Elements
Labeling this 09 may not be fitting as these might be bigger changes to look for down the road and gradually move toward than something that can be quickly adjusted for next year, but want to get some general feelings as we set out in new directions. As mentioned, play calling is something that will...

09 Rules: Best Sim Results or Any Given Sim
I can run test games over and over to see how things would go MOST of the time, but that's not always what scenario is generated for a specific game. Once I push record and then run the game, that's it. I can probably alter the game simulator to run a matchup 3 or 5 times and then pick the BEST resu...

09 Rules: Adjustments
Currently we take individual skill position game updates and adjust them based upon your supporting cast grades versus your sim defense opponent. We need to have adjustments from those game stats to make building a defense or offensive line meaningful. The question is are our adjustments too much? I...

09 Rules: Playoffs
Playoff updates are always a point of controversy every year. Part of the way we did it in the past has to do with time and statistics and not wanting to have to look up every player individually but instead can grab the whole league stats and apply formulas across the board to upload bye and post-s...

Re: Test Phase Today
Yes. Still some tweaks to the forums but should be functional now and the avatar thing should be finally fixed now to where it'll align with your team depending upon which league posting in -- with a more general one that lists all your teams in public forum outside of league-specific discussions. E...

09 Rules: Unlimited Bids on your own
Currently we give teams unlimited bidding on resigning their own unrestricted free agents (versus other teams limited to 5 bids per day for players on other teams). This is a significant advantage to retaining your own players so long as willing to pay the price the player can get on the free market...

09 Rules: Free Agency Counter-Offer Minimums
Our counter-offer requirements were enhanced last year coming off some issues that first off-season, but perhaps will be tweaked again before FA starts. We do probably want strong counter-bid requirements to: - Not waste teams bids (only 5 per day) when someone offers just a tiny bit more. - Give so...

09 Rules: Draft Clock
Previously our automated draft program allowed 30 minutes for 1st round selections and 15 minutes for picks in round 2-7. The clock ran from 10a-10p ET every day until draft completed. I think it took about 4 days. Round 1: 30 min/pick | 2-7: 15 min<br>Clock runs 10a-10p ET As we prepare for the upc...

Re: Test Phase Today
I had some problems with the dynamic avatar script once everyone started posting some test messages (which was a good thing to work out the kinks) but I think it is fine now. I'm not totally sure about the public league generic avatars yet where I currently have a general football image and text wri...
