[quote author=Beast link=topic=517.msg5052#msg5052 date=1318783073]<br />Requirement to be a captain: play at least 1 full idl season with x% attendance <br /> <br />1. people should put in bids to be captains, if enough bids from eligible players aren&#039;t received the board should appoint veteran players at their discretion<br /><br />2. order of the draft, if captains return then you adjust the order accorfing to last seasons win percentage(masterbowl champs are obviously last etc...) If a captain is not returning for w/e reason assign a newly bidded captain that team (note the captain, if desired must change the name after the team is finalized) then the name change must be propagated out to reflect ongoing states (pain in the ass but ladna and other smart programmers exist)<br /><br /><br />3. Allow a period for captains to trade players for draft picks (obviously all this shit im mentioning needs to occur in a logical order)<br /><br />....im up in the air about franchising, honestly im neutral but if your a good captain that is active, maybe you should after like 2 seasons be eligible to franchise with players<br /><br />Its a grey area and some people think this ruins competition, my only reply is adapt<br />[/quote]<br /><br />This is actually one of the best posts so far because it&#039;s a series of suggestions that directly impact how the draft is carried out, which in itself may not be the issue but rather it seems all talk revolves around captains themselves.<br /><br />I think this is a great standpoint, but would like two full seasons to be on the record of a player before they can submit a serious bid to captain. I do not think we should return the franchising, and would like to see your third point fleshed out in more detail and subject to greater debate.<br /><br />Cool stuff so far though~
