I'm not saying the scouting system favoring older users is a good setup. But I can't think of a fairer system. I'm curious if anyone else has an alternative?


What if new teams were given the option to spend some extra cash for the first 4 weeks on scouting? We already get 50k/week to supplement gate receipts, could that be raised to level the playing field on draft info?

Is there any info out on when our scouting investment starts going towards next season and when we will get to see information on the players we scouted?

I had heard this was going to happen three weeks ahead of time this season, but is that 3 weeks from the date of the draft, or the end of the play-offs, or some other date? Some concrete dates for off-season events would be much appreciated.

Not 100% but I think it is 3 weeks before the end of the season, not including playoffs.

3 weeks before the end of the season has passed I think?

3 weeks before the end of the season including the playoffs (if they are like last season) is the 30th of Sep - this Saturday

Here's the simplest possibility: Announce the draft players 2 weeks or even 3 weeks before the draft, but scouting for the last 2-3 weeks is used for the next season instead of the current one.


As I was not here last time when does the draft take place?

How long after the playoffs?

I was wondering, what happens with inactive teams? Since the manager will never make his draft list I presume the computer will assign him one?

But the pc will make the best possible choice (which means that the best players of the draft might end in inactive teams, which are often at the bottom of the standings, and disappear from the game) or completely randomly? or they will automatically get the "leftovers" (their draft ranking being ignored)?

Well I was "inactive" for the one week the draft was going last week and I got 3 random players.

None were particularly good and they were not chosen in order of skill.

So I assume a similar thing will happen this time. If teams are inactive they probably get the first random players they get from all of their scouting.

If they are inactive and and then replaced by new human players and the draft picks will be deleted.

It looks like it's for this season, but I don't get the same thing when I go to the draft. Where are you looking?
