    In this first post I'll list every suggestion made, putting it into one of three categories.

    If you suggest something already on the list, you'll be getting an infraction. You are however allowed to ask questions about how something will be implemented or suggest finer details of confirmed or possible changes.

    If you suggest something unrelated to the simming side of CricSim, you'll be getting an infraction.



    Confirmed Changes

    • Live simming *
    • More injuries
    • Activity affecting the likelihood of injury
    • A full Rossleigh Trophy (one day provincial cricket)
    • People's Choice Cup
    * pending Flack having enough free time in the offseason to help me with it


    Possible Changes

    • Some sort of third grade
    • Over-utilisation of non-specialist skills by specialists affecting the likelihood of injury


    Rejected Ideas

    • Provincial pitches
    • Manual pitch variation for each match
    • X v the rest matches
    • Provincial one day second XI games
    • Multi-season contracts
    • Salary cap
    • Calender match events
    • New clubs
    • Anything to do with vCash

    Activity affecting the likliehood of injury.....Does this mean a lot of the inactive people or less active people having a higher chance of picking up an injury. Wold you allocate a higher percentage chance to these people of picking up an injury?

    Yep, that's exactly what it means. Activity has always been considered "training" while upping your SWPC has always is considered "technical improvement". Sometimes you work on your technique at training, which obviously fits into that as well.

    But the better you train, the more fit you'll be, and the less likely it is you'll pick up an injury.

    Should open up a vBookie on whether this gets done :ninja:

    Can you say how much more likely injuries are going to be, broken down into people at the top and bottom of the activity list?

    Are variable pitches ever going to be an option?

    Being able to move a couple of the things up or down from their base values by like 1 or 2

    On pitches, is there any potential for Provinces having their own pitches? If not, why?

    Like the sound of that a lot. Also injuries in general being a bit higher is good in my opinion as it echoes real life a bit more, and you become more reliant on your whole squad and not just your best 11....who lets face it...very rarely miss more than 1 game a season at the moment.

    How about injuries to be made more likely for batsmen who try to bowl a load or keep wicket?

  13. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Don't mind it, especially re: wicket keeping, but it'd be hard to implement.

    I''m just thinking of things like Downes keeping for the Knights last year and picking up ratings of +1000, and that's doesn't seem like the sort of thing teams should just be able to do, as it leads to a sort of "fuck it, that'll do" attitude towards selection. The injuries would deter people from mucking about with their ALC sides like that.

    I'm also trying to get Phlegm injured.

    On the injuries being more frequent, will there be longer injuries for less active peeps?

    Just wondering if you'll be able to find out more information about an injury?

    All I know at the moment is that someone is out for a certain amount of time 'one or two weeks' seems to be the likelihood, but don't know what type of injury and if it occurred during the match...

    If it did happen in the match, could the batsman not be able to continue to bat or bowler unable to bowl or is this going into too much detail?

    Say a batsman picks up an injury in the first innings and then unable to bat in the second and same for a bowler

    When there is live simming on most people have it in a second tab. (I can't remember if this happened before) Can the tab title be "Vipers 3/273" if they're batting?

    I see that you've addressed manual pitch variation for each match but is there a chance to get pitch variation to occur over a longer period?

    Ie you ask for a pitch change and it occurs 2-3 games or later or perhaps at the halfway mark of the season? Or is no change at all going to occur? If so, why?
