When is the offseason? Will i still get to play games (even scrimmage) and get income during the offseason and will i still need to pay my players and staff?

Thanks.

The offseason depends on which place you finish in the league if you will finish on 5 place, the offseason will be after the last season regualr game- 22.8.
However, if you will finish in any other place you will praticipate at the playoffs.

At the offseason, you can set scrimmage game but you will not get income.

And yes, you will still need to pay to your staff and players =/

Post season begins right after the regular season. The only teams that get an income from games are those in the playoffs (seeds 1-4) and relagation (seeds 6,7). Once the playoffs are done, there is a week with no games with income.

As for scrimmages, the teams out of theplayoffs will get some automatic league scrimmages along with the normal Thursday scrimmage, but no income from them.

All income will continue (TV contract, Merchandise) in the offseason.

Hope this helps.

Wow im just starting and now the season is ending lol.. By saying a week with no games with income after the playoffs are done, what happens after that week? Assuming i wont have attendance income for the whole offseason, il have a negative weekly income.. :(

Do you think it's worth it to keep PR staff for the offseason (dont know if there's a huge effect on merchandise) maybe i should fire him?

*Can't find any info on the offseason, is there anywhere i can read about it to learn more?

Thanks guys!

That is smart thinking for a new player. ;)

PR Staff in the off season offer you the benefit of merchandise proceeds. Though, the difference between the levels is still not drastic, you could save 12-15k a week if you have a level 4 PR guy by dropping him (don't forget the severence fee in your calculations) until you reach the start of the season and want to re-hire. At which point you have to compete to rehire a new PR staff. Doctors have some benefit should the unlikely chance that a player will get banged up in a scrimmage game. Trainers still train, so losing them is not beneficial.

So, unless you hibernate (run Team training on stamina or free throws while not actively looking for scrimmages), you have little need for the PR manager. If you are not playing games in which you split the revenue (5th or 8th place) and you are strapped for cash, the PR guy is the easiest to cut. If you have enough cash to carry you 3 weeks with little income (you still get TV and merchansie income) and you like your PR Guy, then keep him.

Thanks :) Actually i planned to get a L5 PR but then that thought came to my mind.. Im now settling for my L1 (just joined last week) least until the start of next season here.. I'll keep my L4 trainer because i want my players to get better.. As far as doctors i may be wrong, but as long as my players recover im gonna leave it at L1.

What do you mean by 3 weeks? What happens during those 3 weeks? And after those 3 weeks do i get my attendance income back or what? Sorry i read everything in the rules and still couldn't find answers for this..

I think he means that if you aren't in a postseason or relegation series, there's actually three weeks with no income from games. Teams that reach their league final have only one week of no game income, teams that reach either the relegation or the postseason (but not the final) have only two weeks, and the 5th and 8th place guys wind up with three lost weeks. That's why I'm hoping to stay comfortably in 6th place in my league ;)
