I like this idea.

Definitely need to extend the FA talks period, 100%. If you wanna sign before the pre-draft, you legit only have a few days, and I got contacted by 2 different teams after I signed back with YKW. I think GMs simply need more time.

For example:

1. Add higher tiers of equipment.

2. Extra OTA's/Mini-Camp a player can purchase for bonus TPE

3. Regression Passes - these will allow a player to push back their current regression level a year

4. Position Switch Passes - would allow a player to freely position switch again without TPE penalty

5. A weekly drawing that players can pay to enter that gives them the opportunity to win PT Passes/Regression Passes/ Position Switch Passes/Double Payout on their next published item/Free Training/Bonus Equipment Purchase/etc  ---- where the entry fees are scaled for the prizes available

This might not encourage movement directly, but it could get people to spend more, and those without league jobs that want to fast track or catch up or stay at peak will be looking for extra money. Then again, those with plush league jobs will definitely be class of the league if they choose to spend the hundreds of millions they have

Every one of these is a great idea.

I really like this proposal! @Ephenssta maybe we can work on getting a rule proposal together before the end of the season.

About Kidd's post:

Adding even more ways to get TPE with money is a bad idea imo. You'll just drive casual people away because they won't be able to keep up and anyway most rich people get their money from stuff other than contracts so it wouldn't fix your problem.

I guess you could have items that could only be purchased with contract money, like those "regression passes" for example. Paying a player in his prime a lot of money would make more sense to fight regression.

Agreed. I think making the league more grind-y is really dangerous.

I brought up the idea of being able to fight regression for a lot of money in a previous thread, as it's one of the few ways the very-rich could use their money in a way that wouldn't be completely game-breaking. Even that feels a little risky though.

My thinking on something like that would be, maybe the amount of regression that hits you changes if you use the pass. So instead of 25% your 2nd season, maybe its 30, or 35, something like that. So it's not just a get out of jail free card and once the time runs out, it still hits you hard. You'd also want to limit it, maybe 2 passes per player.

I`d say if we do something liek this, make it so you take double regression the season afterwards.
