Would it be an option to allow rookies to upgrade to a higher tier as the season progresses?
As a rookie, this should probably be the way it works. When I first started, earning enough for one piece of equipment seemed like a lot - the bulk purchase is going to seem very challenging and might turn some rookies off.

You can still do a custom transaction. Just write in the amount of the equipment and what it is. The dropdown is just a shortcut.

We could adjust this but these are equivlent to buying all of the lowest gear and highest gear from before as the two extrems. I did not do the math and that's a bit of an oversight on my part.
This would be the perfect time to correct that, don't you think?

I still don’t understand why SMJHL rookies aren’t going to be allowed to make purchases in pieces or upgrade throughout the season. It’s a feature that currently exists that is being removed.
RE: Out with the old equipment rules - puolivalmiste - 03-03-2020
In general I like the change and will get it all at once but I agree with people who feel like upgrading should be option at least for SMJHL and even SHL players can buy few best parts and then wait and see if they can get last 2 later in season.
You could keep track of your "Coaching Tier" on updates like you keep track of capped tpe (or pgs cap). If upgradiing would be allowed to keep it more simple for updaters I'd say just make sure that cost goes up more consistently for SHL even if it doesn't perfectly mimic current system, for example something like:
2,5M - 11 TPE
4M - 16 TPE
5,5M - 21 TPE
7M - 25 TPE
8,5M - 28 TPE
Another way would be to link to bank transaction and to original purchase /latest upgrade to get upgrade approved.

This is so much better and much more elegant, thank you!
RE: Out with the old equipment rules - LordBirdman - 03-06-2020
I think I'm going to be able to start a nice high interest loan business to rookies that want to get maximum TPE with low bank accounts.

When can I start buying these personal coaching sessions?
RE: Out with the old equipment rules - JSS331 - 03-17-2020
We went to this in PBE this season. It definitely streamlined the process. We did allow upgrades throughout the season which made it accessible to both rookies and experienced players who earn all season to afford the equipment. What is the downside to allowing a custom transaction later in the season for the difference between what you paid and what the max coaching and just linking to that with the difference in TPE?
These seem like easy decisions when you have multiple jobs in the league and money is of no concern. The rest of us stiffs have to write more than I ever did in school to earn the cash.
