I'm going to open up registrations for the new sim now as it'll force me to finish the last season of BBallSim asap haha. This thread is just an information thread. Season 6 will be completed be a single game knockout tournament seeded by current placings in each conference. 3 v 6, 4 v 5, 1 v lowest seed, 2 v other team winners playoff winner of conferences play for the title Next season will (probably) have eight teams. If you want to start up a team just PM me, previous clubs will have priority - again just message to indicate whether you'll continue on. Lineups will be much easier next season, they won't have a deadline and will be valid until changed (you could set it R1 and leave it until the end). It'll just require minutes distribution and a depth chart (so I know who you want to replace someone in case of injury). All tactics optional. I will probably run a quick provincial tournament as contracts get signed and the last couple of people register. Firstly, it'll be simmage. Secondly, it will help club GMs work out who are the lucky better players to sign them/their best lineups. Obviously activity and performance will determine how players improve however. Prior talents will have NO effect. I guess that's it. Let's get this going.
Reckon you should play a tournament before any contracts open. Otherwise recruitment/S1 is just luck alone and that's pretty boring. Obviously people will probably agree to certain things regardless, but no need to open contracts until we have some indication of abilities IMO.
Post rank and activity obviously will be factors as the season progresses too, so it wouldn't be entirely random. The idea is having them concurrent as it'd allow those to sign who know where they're going and for GMs to target the holes looking while not holding up the season waiting for one to finish before allowing the other to begin.
