The problem (at least from my perspective) is the second half of the season typically is not all that interesting to me, and extending it to longer just makes it feel like it drags on even longer.

That's definitely a concern, having more of a mid-season lull would probablybe the greatest risk here. But I think there are lots of options we could explore to spice things up, from introducing more special events and building more hype around stuff like the ASG or our own Winter Classic/Stadium Series to additional activites centered around the fantasy or PT system. We could also simply introduce one off-day per week where there are no regular sims, which would both make the season longer even without adding any games and would take some pressure off the simmer, while not really costing the rest of us anything. I think we'd all be fine if Sunday (or whatever day the simmer chooses) was a rest day.

And btw I do agree that PGS need to die and that PbPs might need to be reformed, but that by itself wouldn't really speed things up much, if at all.

Yeah, Seattle hasn't seen a game played since May 19th... closing in on a month.

I'd agree to remove PbPs and gonthe more efficient VHL system, that way there are still individual threads up to talk shit and generally carry more interest,

The way the SBA does it is also really nice. Opens things up for more back and forth between teams, without having people lost interest due to PbPs which drastically vary in quality.

Regarding shortening off-season, could you do pre-season with a copy of the league file so that once rosters are in, pre-season starts whether or not anything else is updated? Kind of like the IIHF where builds are frozen to what they were at the end of the season. I'm not sure if it's been suggested here already, or if it's even feasible, but it could be a way to give everyone something to follow while the rest of the league prepares.

You could even have someone else sim the pre-season to give the main simmer more of a break.

Do Pbp's on all 7 games of every series and double the PGS CAP to 30.

If we froze builds without any off-season updates put in, it would overall screw GMs over. The preseason is for testing their lines with the actual builds for the season or the results end up completely compromised. They could have something completely different without it. I've heard it before, I've been argued with about it before. We have to give them that courtesy to test their and prepare for the season.

So I see we still haven't even started Pre-Season.

I don't get what the hell the issue is.

Well it is scheduled to start tomorrow, so that was always the plan

But I'm wondering if Texas is going to have to play the pre-season unupdated. If that's the case I'm going to be fairly choked

Yeah the plan has never changed from what it was before regarding preseason starts. Every team should be updated for the start of pre-season. Even if I have to do it myself. Again. Lol

Me either. Also - regress my goalie in the sim in GOMHL so nobody starts bitching about it later in the season
