On that note, I would expect there to be adjustments to the salary formula in the upcoming seasons. (This is not an official announcement because it has not been approved by those in charge).
Well that could be some great news !
What's the goal behind these potentially upcoming adjustments ? Will it only concern specific skills ? Will it lead to a decrease of salary for some primary skills ? An increase for some secondary skills ? An adjustment only for really high levels ? Maybe that is too soon for you to answer

Not sure why you posted that. I don't find it very helpful to the discussion.

Back to the changes. I'm not French and I dislike changes to the game engine coming in without warning, or any discussion whatsoever.

Oh but it was mentioned a while ago, that was the warning. But that was vague and what it hinted at to me was a change in the salary formulae.

Changes to the game engine should always be small, and incremental if necessary. I could cite chaos theory as the reason for that but 2000 years ago Julius Caesar had noted that in battle small events can have large consequences. Thus it is in BB. The game engine is complex, and a small change could have an unseen large consequence. Does this mean I don't want change as I think you might suspect? No. But they should be carefully done. Not large. Not radical.

when written "Just give one season or two notice so we can prepare" you're basically asking for 3 to 6 months wait. That's bunch of time

This is a slow game. Training requires a long term plan. Planning years ahead. Your own words should lead you to see that if you've set plans in motion that require years, then change is not necessarily going to be good for you. Even 3 months isnt going to help if you're halfway through a 3 year plan. But its better than nothing.

Also, we're used to getting advance notice. It always used to be the norm. Why has that changed?

Previous game engine changes have been tested in scrimmages and private leagues. Why was this not done this time?

Hard to be 100% sure of course. I am very good at the Gallic Shrug.

I must admit that the "secrets" of BBs are the funniest part of the whole game, once everyone will know how GE works the game will be near the end. I think Justin knows it and hope he will continue to give few infos. Is probably better to speculate about his words instead of having the solution but of course this is just my point of view and I full respect your opinion/vision ;)
