I'd be for this if there weren't an IRL problem. There are 20 SHL teams and 16 SMJHL teams. Each has 2 people who are required to have sim software, before you get the head offices, IIHF fed heads, coaches, simmers, and game file updaters. Once you include them, you're asking a good size chunk of the site to buy a whole new game.

I'm sure there's a group every year that is looking and testing. I'm sure you're right about how many elements would be fixed. But it was almost a whole IRL year with the work of a sizeable team to build the index. It was two seasons of a ton of initial testing before moving from STHS. There are still build rule changes made according to growing understanding of FHM 6.

So I think the preventative questions are as such:
1) What does it break in the current site infrastructure?
2) Are we going to be a league that basically charges a subscription of $40 at some kind of interval to be involved in management or files?

The thing is, we probably will upgrade eventually-- once there is a suitable answer at least to Question #1. Whether that's FHM 8, 9, or a further-out version remains to be seen.
