s2 gm sim league rules and brainstorming thread

Just checking in, I'll be back home in a couple of days

 

....

 

I am subscribed to this thread. Just waiting to hear about what I need to do.

 

Did this die before it started? I think we should just get up a draft thread now and go. Worry about salaries later.

 

I think this about the 7th time someone has said we should do that..

 

Okay sorry about the delays guys, been hectic with family over here cause of the holidays.

I have a game to coach later tonight after that I will start working on the rules and post them up before Monday morning (like...before 10AM type morning, cause I'll probably post it at like 2AM )

Again, I apologize!

(I haven't checked yet, but I hope we have 30)

 

Since PapaG is banned, we need a user to replace him. Can someone else please try to find a user to replace PapaG.

I would do it right now or later today, but its 6AM Pacific, and I haven't slept....and I'm going to Disneyland today...in 3hrs....

x.x

 

Oh yeah, and if anyone is BACKING out, please tell me today.

 

It's up to drexlersdad, although I'm pretty sure he is leaning towards 2k10.

 

pre set ratings are crap, they will be adjusted, so.....think real life, not, preset ratings.

 

there will be financial restrictions, im not sure a hard cap is the way to go though.

most likely a soft cap with penalties for going over, such as loss of draft picks and/or MLE

 

I'll do it tonight after I get done with coaching.

I won't be up late like usual tonight, so if it doesn't show up, just wait another day.

I have an important interview tomorrow in the early morning so...eek!

 

good luck with the interview!! unless its something bad...ummmm.....ok!

 

Was thinking about this today. I'd propose we use the same basic rules as the NBA but make the luxury tax level a hard cap.

That is, you can't re-sign your own FAs if you go over the luxury tax...

I'd make an exception to this rule for teams that made the conference finals. As a reward for being successful, you get to keep your team together.

It also sort of reflects real life. Most teams won't go over the tax unless they think they're really getting somewhere with it.

That's not a perfect system, but it's the closest I can figure to real life.

 

I like this but how long is the exception for teams to be over the luxury tax? Say a team makes it one year and resigns all their guys, then they don't make it the next year. Is there going to be a 2 or 3 years period which we allow them to say over this "hard" cap?
