@SCCavs - It's not expressly prohibited in the forum guidelines http://bit.ly/1GmShNW . Though I do appreciate the heads up. Perpete may appear if there is an issue. Though compared to some of the legendary 'Wolph' posts, it's far from inflammatory.

Leagues collaboratively scouting their drafts results in saving the best players. It also adds to the realism since IRL draftees are scouted ad nauseum. Another plus, it can create interesting dialogue. A great example is why the stat lines are diff. Are the combine games unique for all managers?

Team draft scouting should be a encouraged IMO. More so for micronations, a high percentage of trainable players spawn on bot teams and take weeks off of training until they can be saved to the TL. I'm a 2x U21 manager (not for US). Drafts were always an uphill battle with that.

I trained a US21 player (30645400). He came with 58 TSP and needed every week of training to be able to make the team when he turned 21. His potential was only 6 so he capped early into his 5th season with 105 TSP. I landed him and another prospect by pulling back to back tanking seasons before RL'ng out of D3. I worked him 2 seasons with a Lvl 6 trainer and 2 seasons with a lvl 5. His break out game was a 29pt with 11rb, 4 ast, 2 blk effort against Paraguay (29288). All in only 23 mins. He just got saved to the TL and I have nowhere near funds to get him back. #Lulz

I was told by a user that has stayed active that D5 is all bot now. It used to be about 1/3 bot when I initially started in S16. To get up to D4 was somewhat competitive than D3 and beyond took work. I understand that the user base has shrunk considerably.

My current squad could handle a run in D5. If we end up staying, the RL series should be survivable projecting where training will be by season's end. I don't foresee bloating up to $100k salaries this season to compete. Big plan is to link whoever we pull from the draft with Fortune to be the core. Work them inside/out for the next few seasons while stacking arena.

Does anybody know if the offsite is still active?

I interviewed 2 draftees this week. Posted updated board on the offsite if anyone's interested.

I'm saving my points.. came in too late in the season to get enough to truly find a good pick.

Thanks for the Info

Mdern with the MVP effort for the Logjammers, pouring in a season high 28 on 11 of 19 shooting. Also pulled in 11 boards and drew 4 PFs.

Ducksnorts young frontcourt will need to step it up . McMullen needs help on the boards if they are to defend their homecourt to force the tiebreaker on the road.
