The aspect of the league that I appreciate the most is definitely the ability to watch the sim on Twitch and YouTube as it makes the user feel a lot more involved with what’s happening in the sim. With more players joining each season we should really make the sim viewing the most prominent aspect of the site. Most other multiplayer sim engines do not have something like this, as for example the SHL is just looking at post-sim results. In the future, I’d love to see the possibility of having the stream embedded into the forum in order for it to be more visible to any new user that doesn’t use Discord or curious guests that haven’t registered yet.

Want Changed/Removed (133 words):

This is something I think occurs in most sim leagues and it does bother me quite a bit. The fact that high TPE players can claim ridiculously small contracts for all their career makes the whole simulation sports pointless in my eyes. It lets a team stack so much power that it wouldn’t be realistic in real world. If we are a simulation sport we should try to emulate real sports as much as possible. As such I would love to see the contracts be more in line with the NFL. A star player should not be earning 1M per season. He should be earning big bucks. I think the best way to fix this is to introduce salary tiers at every 100 TPE and limit the contract duration to 3 seasons max.

Want Added (113 words):

This league could do with the addition of off-season events, such as the return of the Pro Bowl sim that we didn’t have last season. New players tend to create more during the off-season and once their player is created, the first TPE earned there isn’t much to do other than sit around and wait for the DSFL draft. I am however not for the idea of an international tournament or such. I do not think that we have the number of players to make this work, even with NCAA partitions. I don’t know what could be added but more things in the off-season will help with player retention in the long run.
