1. I think that we should add more ways to spend money than we currently have. Although this could potentially overpower recreates, we could also put some sort of penalty on recreates (a delay on how long until they can spend a set amount of money maybe?) but I think if we implemented more ways to spend it, we could really reward those who are active in the community doing media daily or working community jobs. For example someone could donate money to a charity, and for every 3mil they donate they get an additional 2TPE for example. A special 'High intensity' training camp could also be introduced. It could raise a certain stat tremendously for that weeks game (and only that week) and then the next game a stat would be heavily penalized, like endurance. It would make players prepare for a game against the otters, and relax during a game with the Yeti. it would also make a team plan when they would use their training, to prevent gassing all their starters and getting blown out the next week.
2. I think that the current retirement plan is garbage. Only 7 seasons of high level play? Brady is 40 fucking years old. Maybe for a running back for example 7 years works, but kickers and quarterbacks and other positions can go longer than others. Wide receivers should play for a good long time, Tight ends too. I mean I guess it can be fair to keep certain positions cycling but ugh only 7 seasons and then my player plummets into TPE loss. So bad, and it really prevents someone from getting to go around the league in Free Agency. I want to be loyal and spend my entire career with whoever drafts me, but if that doesn't work out I'd like to be the wandering nomad that travels from team to team filling in the pieces needed to win the Ultimus
3. I love the way that player progression works. This is my first sim league and at first I was so confused but after I joined the Portland Pythons I had so much help that I generally know what I am doing now. I really like how you have to put in some time to progress your character and extra effort is rewarded. I also like the way that money is earned. Being able to get on every day and see what media was published and read all of it is really cool to me. Seeing other peoples perspectives on the league is cool. Anyway I hope this league stays around long enough for me to retire 22 players who are all the GOAT at their position.
