League Revenue will be dropped from +10% to 0% where it will stay

All teams can purchase up to two additional winterball spots for 40M each

Post 2135 Actions - 

All bank cash over 100M will be returned to the game file following resigns.  This will be taxed at 50%.  (So someone with 150M in the bank will have their bank set at 100M with 25M sent to the game)

Option 1: Bump Peak End from +20% to +30%.  This is mogul's way of extending careers a bit.  We've had this setting since we moved to Mogul '11.  I don't know how impactful it will be, sometimes these things in mogul can be more window dressing than truly effective.

Option 2: Uncheck Sanity Checks.  This would mean that players with elite vitals might be more likely to put up crazy statistical years.  99 power might result in 60 bombs rather than mogul artificially narrowing it down to 45 to keep things in balance.  Can't say I know how this will play out either, but it (hypothetically, based on Clay's coding prowess) would allow more uniqueness.

Option 3: WB stays the exact same except for one change: we originally had the bumps effect predicteds (which is more of a steroid bump directly to the player's abilities) but moved to peaks because that just gives more upside and room for growth.  We changed because it was felt like this over-inflated talent for cash, but with cash more in hand it could be less impactful.  (This could come with a host of other changes too - maybe 1 or 2 slots only with 15-20M at cost)

Option 4: Shut up Andy, do nothing.]]>

KCR -       120M                   +21.5M                  141.5M                 107M           +39.2                        139.2M
CHW -      85M                    +39M                     124M                     80M             +58.1                       138.1M

If you're wondering why some teams fluctuate oddly, I didn't run perfect sims based on performances on purpose.  Here you can see what happens to a KC team that overperformed in the "No Changes" sim versus underperforming in the Changes sim.  Their payroll stayed roughly the same but that still indicates that KC won't be damaged as badly by rough years as they have in the past.  Cincy, by contrast, performed almost identically in the two sims and you can see a 14M jump in available payroll.  Ditto St. Louis.

On the upper end you can see this with Washington who performed much better in the changes sim so that their revenue barely dipped.  Even with that they see a dip in expected payroll.  Boston performed roughly the same so you can see the effect on their payroll.  

This will give our lower revenue clubs more wiggle room and less wiggle room for error on the upper end.  Cash will be better redistributed and payrolls are closer, but not perfectly, aligned.  You still see 50M gaps between the top and bottom clubs, but more of them are in the 160 range than previously.

You got two full seasons to be ready for it in 2110!]]>

You can post in your position changes thread whatever pitch counts and individual strategies you have for MLB PLAYERS ONLY.  Provided no one decides sim after sim they bombard me with eleventy billion changes where they bump their pitch count by one and then by two the next sim, then back down one, etc. I will allow this as a regular change just like position changes.

Please post it as the following:

You can send me a short player list.  You can send me a message saying you'll be on at a certain time to pick.  You can just plain communicate your status somehow rather than ghosting us for a day and a half.  (Or longer in some cases)

So effective next year we will be instituting this rule:

As of 9PM ET of the Friday during Predraft you have 8 hours to pick or communicate your intentions.  If you do not the person after you (NFL style) can run their card to the podium and pick in front of you.  Not only that, but every person after you who is ready to pick can do so as well.  There will not be an 8 hour reset, you will simply be skipped until you decide to show up.

So you can take your 1st or 2nd or 3rd overall pick and turn it into the 20th if you aren't careful.  So be on your shit guys, it's enough of this feet dragging every year.]]>
