New League - Please Signup
First topic message reminder :
Okay, so with the JAV2 League closing due to lack of pure interest and maybe some rules which people didn’t get along with, we have decided to close it.
We have been speaking on the Facebook chat (we need to divert it onto here) about an idea of just starting as basic of a league as possible however this will involve more money and will involve less people hopefully as i want to run it and if I am to do so, I ideally only want people to sign up if they know they are able to commit to it.
We are still talking about ideas of course but any suggestions will be welcome. At the moment I think we discussed a draft style start being given random players with a smaller squad and making it so that we still have something to build but with more money per game/voting week with more than one voter each week however I think the feeling was to revert back to older style leagues with opinions and a score from each voter but again, this is still to be discussed.
This topic is purely to generate interest, I will give everyone until the end of Thursday (Midnight) to decide if they want in or not. As previously mentioned, we only want people who are dedicated and willing to commit otherwise there is simply no point as harsh as it sounds.

Would say the main thing from my point of view is feedback is given.
Surely 3 managers gives you a counter against both downsides
1 person is too subjective - ok, so 3 should be better
Difficult getting predictions from all - should be easier to just get it from 3
Seems like its the best of both worlds

Reality, if you want a simple system for results, its going to rely on people's opinions. Therefore it is always going to be subjective and lead to some unpopular results.
If you want a system completely free of subjectivity and risk of unpopular results, then the system is going have to be complicated.
So what is it that people want more:
1) simple, with potentially unpopular opinions; or
2) complex, but removing the subjectivity?

I'd sooner be subjective - as long as proper feedback is applied.
I don't like being forced to pick a winner/loser to be honest.

Simplicity is key. That voting system we had that Afro is suggesting worked, i like the idea of 2-3 voters per week.
We need to sort this out guys, i'd appreciate if more people got involved too with discussions and im going to write up what we have so far now.

Re: New League - Please Signup
TM – Lets do this but freeze values, it didn’t seem like anyone was dead against it..
Draft system initially with me fixing up squads to give out to people at random – this should be set in stone, not sure anyone didn’t want this
200 word tactics (only including subs instructions and written instructions) – this worked well in the other league - £1.5m bonus each week (this will be important if we freeze tm values) – set in stone
Votes – if people agree we could revert back to old where every person votes on every game except their own EACH WEEK with a score and a bit of feedback - £1.5m bonus each week (this will be important if we freeze tm values) – still TBD but I like the idea of the old vting system with 2-3 voting each week but we need to juggle it so its fair and we don’t have the same people voting on peoples games.
Transfers – I think with more money in the league, we should limit this again for sure – maybe 3 a week?
Domestic transfers – Definitely need these
Loans – I think long term only like Afro suggested and (this may come in later in the season/s) and I want to add emergency GK loans too
Lawyers – We could just do a normal lawyer price at whatever price they were brought into the league at, ideally if everyone keeps the prices in team pages, this wont be hard to track
Releases – Maybe we should make this a max of 3 as well? 3 in 3 out mentality for the transfer side of things.
Injuries – Lets say 3?
Cash bonuses – As stated above if we limit TM prices then this will increase importance of getting tactics and votes in
Sponsorships – Added as a bit of fun
Press Conferences – We could make these 500k-1m
Squad limit of 25

How about a system in which each game gets a post thread with a simple poll at the top with the options of Team A win, Team B win, draw? It has a built in cut off period and is quick and simple for voters.

Can you clarify what you mean by freezing values please?

Re: New League - Please Signup
Freezing values would be whatever price you purchase a player at, they stay at that TM price so if i buy Griezmann for £50m, his price would be that until i release him or lawyer him out, even if TM has an increase.
I'm pretty sure that was one of your suggestions by the way Trebs..
Hero i like that idea but we will have trouble with others randomly voting on the topic and we can't be sure who has voted..unless there is an admin control of who would be allowed to vote on the topic within that section?

I thought it was the case that a player's value would remain frozen until the end of that in-game season rather than permanently?

Re: New League - Please Signup
On board with freezing TM value to the end of the season - happy to take the lead on maintaining this if you like
Tactics/predos bonus - is that 1.5m for getting each in on time? Means a max of 1.5m bonus per week per manager
Votes - I like the 3 voter option. Personally am happy to do either win/loss or give scores. Definitely agreed that decent feedback is needed (make half the bonus dependent on feedback quality?)
Lawyers - if we're freezing TM value, I think lawyers can be up to 10% increase

Freezing tm would be until the end of the in game season.
I was thinking 1.5m for tactics and 1.5m for votes Bam, to save the squads starving of money but if we agree to that I think its only fair we limit tps per week again..

Miky I know it was my idea - I just wanted to check how the rules would be implemented. Personally I'd just keep it till the end of time as it forces domestics - but I spose I can get on board with that.

Think thats fine
If we were to go with the idea of the 3 voters not having a game that week, would mean a max of 1.5m per team per week
Agree on limiting TPs per week
If possible, I'd also look to limit releases

Re: New League - Please Signup
I almost think even 3 releases a week is too many
Assuming you're picking fairly decent squads to start with, I don't really agree with seeing complete squad turnover in one season as there won't be any real dross in the teams
But happy to go with the majority

They wont be able to turnover the squad though because we would do it at 75% of the tm value if we continue as the previous league did

Re: New League - Please Signup
I still maintain one person doing results is better than three
PM tactics to results person
Results person decides results and writes feedback
Results are posted
Or
PM tactics to head voter
Head voter posts tactics for other voters to see
Voters PM results back to head voter
Head voter collates results to come up with scoreline
Head voter posts results.
I just think with the messing about waiting for it to get posted, people not predicting on time and so on it's too much hassle.
Also only having 4/7 people playing on a given week creates boredom IMO.

I get the feeling the majority want more than one voter trebs.
Does anyone else strongly want a different voting system than above? We need to start moving on if we eventually want to get anything started

You could easily have everyone playing (if an even number), and then have 3 voters for each game (taken from the managers not involved in that game). If it is an odd number, then it is even easier as the non-playing manager votes on every game/collects tactics/votes that week.

Okay, well something has to give.
General feeling is that you need more than 1 to dilute the subjectivity
Managers not playing too often makes them bored
But we don't want everyone to vote.
So I see two options - 3 managers don't play and vote on every game or 1 manager doesn't play and the two other votes is shared between the rest

If everyone wrote basic tactics you could stop bias if Miky or whoever is running is randomly handed out games to vote on.
So say
----------------GK
RB ---CB -- CB -- LB
-----DM -- CM
RW -----AM ----LW
-------ST
Then tactics without using names.

Re: New League - Please Signup
Okay so..
I think we can safely say the voting is decided on as it was only really Trebs who didnt agree - We will need to do something clever with the fixtures/setup.
Next we need to talk about transfers and lawyers - Do we do 3 transfers or do we go back to the old school of 2 and then lower releases to 2? What do people think?
The other thing we need to talk about it Lawyers - How do we handle that, as it seems like we are freezing TM prices for the season, i think it makes sense to give the manager a % above the tm price they bought them for, what do people think to that?

My preference would be the following but im easy regarding Lawyers & Trannies (Not the Caitlyn Jenner type)
3 TP's
3 Lawyers - 1 above, 1 below & 1 at TM Value
3 Release
3 TP's
3 Lawyers - 1 above, 1 below & 1 at TM Value
3 Release
