    There seems to be 4 ideas going on by the GM's as to what to do with this league. My reasoning for this thread is to collect everyone's opinion on what they want to see happen and what they definitely don't want to see happen. So it would be appreciated if you guys could maybe put in order the ideas you support and the ideas you don't support.

    I see 3 threads with different opinions.

    Options

    1) Leave the league alone for the next few seasons and we'll discuss changes later.

    2) Massive 12 round draft

    3) Reset the league

    4) Massive bidding wars

    For me:

    I prefer: option 1 or 2

    I'm okay with: option 3

    I don't ever want: option 4

    Where do you guys fall?

    Edit: For gettinbranded, this thread isn't meant to be the final word and when the votes are tallied we either do what the majority wants or we're leaving. It's my way of letting everyone have a place to provide their opinions on all 4 choices in 1 spot...

    Hey, it's the wizard! I hope you don't get nervous like last time. We wouldn't want you to... "wiz" on someone!

    i like option 1 the best, then option 2 it would be neat, 3 next then 4

    the reason for option 1 is the new gms get the real opportunity to strut their stuff and so someone can end the dominance of mavs/blazers-hopefully it will be me :)

    Option 1 because I have made many moves that will effect my team next season, so I don't want to end the sim now.

    Were Cat to come back and say that we have to stop because the league is too off balanced talent-wise, then I would prefer option 2, and I don't want to even rate 3 or 4 because I really dislike either.

    I only want option 1.

    I dont ever want to do option 2.

    I can be persuaded into doing option 3 down the line when we have played out several more seasons.

    Option 4. What stupid option is this? Yeah mine. [​IMG] I actually don't want to do this either, but I would rather do this than option 2. But my feeling on my stupid option that I would still not want to do is that I know I could make a system that would make this as easy, if not easier than a massive draft. [​IMG]

    My option would be just changing the rules of the common draft so more quality players are in the draft and leaving teams alone.

    More options :

    5) Do a little dance.

    6) Make a little love.

    7) Get down tonight(whoop, whoop)

    8) All of the above.

    Honestly, I like the way things are, and I'd rather not change things unless it becomes obvious that we cannot continue on our the current path, something that I do not believe has happened.

    I rather like the team I've built, and I actually liked the challenge of turning aroung a ****ty team. I think I've done a good job and I want to at least see the fruits of my labor before we reset the whole deal.

    I agree with BGM. I would prefer options 1 or 2. Even though I was the last to join the sim league and have a very poor team, it will be fun trying to rebuild a team with trades and rookie drafts, so I'd rather continue the way it is now. Option 3 is also ok as well if we had to do that. I don't even want to see option 4 happening, that would just be way too complicated and there would be a whole lot of disorder in the league. So option 1, then 2, then 3, never 4.

    Option 2. I stated my reasoning enough. Then option 3. I don't like either option 1 or 4 at all.

    1 or 3

    I have just realized that the stakes are myself
    I have no other
    ransom money, nothing to break or barter but my life
    my spirit measured out, in bits, spread over
    the roulette table, I recoup what I can
    nothing else to shove under the nose of the maître de jeu
    nothing to thrust out the window, no white flag
    this flesh all I have to offer, to make the play with
    this immediate head, what it comes up with, my move
    as we slither over this go board, stepping always
    (we hope) between the lines

    Ditto. Really, whatever goes down is copacetic. I don't plan to throw a tantrum, regardless of which option is chosen.

    #1, then after a few seasons, one of the other options.

    but if change is NEEDED right now(don't think so) then #2.
