what if we rebrand as a NASCAR sim league

Probably a no on injuries for now. But HO can discuss it.

Looking great!! And way shorter. Sorry I killed the last one. Smile

)

IMHO re: voting process: I don't want someone forced into the position who has no interest in it or time for it just because they're the most 'neutral' party from that team, but I'd also like to generate discussion in and amongst the teams so that no one feels slighted or like they didn't get a chance to nominate someone. My suggestion:

Step 1: I'd like each team to be able to nominate 2 "League Reps" as potential options who have stated in advance that they'd be both willing and able to do it. A team can choose to forfeit their vote if they have no parties who are willing/able to serve.

Step 2: HO compiles the list of candidates and is able to veto one name from each team.

Step 3: Public write-in vote where list of candidates is presented for each conference at the top of the conference thread.

Step 4: HO tallies votes, announces voted-in candidates, and also announces selected officers. If selected officers and voted-in candidates overlap, candidate with the next-most votes replaces them.

Does that makes sense/sound good?

Also, for SMJHL: I'd like to have a policy that true rookies (first SMJHL season with a first player) are ineligible to be nominated. I don't want someone who hasn't been present in the league before in any position to make decisions, no matter how awesome they are. Smile

Speaking of changing *everything*, can we add Injuries back to the league? According to <a href='index.php?showuser=5' rel='nofollow' alt='profile link' class='user-tagged mgroup-3'>sarmo</a>, it's the shit and gave the league interest back in the day. If we're here to promote activity, it is a double-edged sword, but he brings up a good point, something like however many games you sit out correlates to TPE you get free into Durability (3 games out -> 6 TPE, something like that). IIRC, there's a way to keep injuries from being season-long or something, would have to get clarification on that from <a href='index.php?showuser=232' rel='nofollow' alt='profile link' class='user-tagged mgroup-24'>JayWhy</a> and <a href='index.php?showuser=802' rel='nofollow' alt='profile link' class='user-tagged mgroup-24'>FourFour</a> or anyone else with the sim (might ask Jardy on the VHL too). Gives depth players a chance to come in and play.

I've been looking at a way to introduce injuries as a way to stop people giving too many minutes, but I need to test a lot out and even then it might be too much work for the simmer. I'll post about it tomorrow, too late just now.

:stomp:

It's no secret that the biggest delay each off season are the drafts. Every year GMs know they're coming up and the LEAGUE gives GMs 3+ weeks to pick a date and hold up the rest of the players.

Why is this still going on and when will the league end the long off-season by picking a date and if both GMs can't make it they send a representative?

Every year hundreds of active members are delayed because a handful of selfish semi active members don't want to do their job. Fire them and replace them with people who don't make excuses so the league can stay active.

Pick a draft date and force teams to do their jobs!

<a href='index.php?showuser=537' rel='nofollow' alt='profile link' class='user-tagged mgroup-8'>Schultzy</a> that's more of an issue with recruitment. We delay our recruitment when we should be recruiting during the playoffs so that we don't have to have drafts pushed off to allow us to find enough players to actually hold an SMJHL draft.

No shit. It was decided years ago that recruitment drive starts during the 2nd round of the playoffs. But it's also an issue that the league doesn't even think about starting the draft scheduling until after the Cup Finals.

GMs know the draft is coming up. They can make arrangements. The GMs should not be setting the date. The league should and the GM should make sure their team is represented at the draft.

I could dig it tbh.

Biggest thing is definitely recruitment starting on time and not late.

Recruitment should probably start sometime in the playoffs, no?

But again, people are already saying this SMJHL class is stacked.

You have 5 SMJHL Commissioners and 20 GMs for 8 fucking teams! 25 people run 8 TEAMS which are mostly made up of inactive players anyway! But there's no draft date?????????????????

How????

.bojo · 12-01-2016, 09:45 PM

How are there 20 SMJHL GM's.

It should, but when was the last time it did?

8 current teams x 2 = 16 + 2 expansion teams to bring us to 10 SMJHL teams x 2 GMs = 20
