maybe non-champion teams who get the possibility of being promoted should receive less money (they don't get the attendance boost anyway).

Even half the money would be around one billion dollars in total (estimated).

Was the potential cap formula affected along with salary formula? Can we be sure potential cap calculation works still the same? Thanks

My 2 cents about the news:

- Salary changes: That goes in the good direction, and that's very good to do it progressively.

- Micronations: As most users of micronations seem to be in favor of merging, that's ok for me. Maybe the timeline is quite long.

- Salary floor: I'm ok with that, salary floor in div 1-2 is still low, imo.

- Boycott: Very good news. Everything that is done to reduce the power of tanking is a good news. And I particularly appreciate that way of doing.

- Promotion/Demotion: I'm not against a change. But it sounds quite harsh. Maybe 2 direct demotions (7th and 8th) and only one demotion serie between the 2 6th could be more reasonable.

- Max numbers of players: minor change

- Draft: Interesting, I'm curious to see what we'll pick now!

- Checklist/Tutorial: No opinion

- Features: Cool

Nobody wants to acknowledge that. Huge inflation coming...

Whether you liked it or not, tanking a season to save some money and get draft picks was almost the only way to reset a failing or aging team. The salary floor and boycott changes seem designed to make that very difficult to do. But players have been too expensive for many seasons now to retool on the fly. So what will happen now? Everyone will have middling teams by being boxed in on one side by the economy and the other by anti-tanking measures? I usually don't worry about changes to the game based on the fact that the playing field remains level regardless. While true for this change also, this is the first time I have the thought that a change could significantly lessen my enjoyment of the game. I hope I'm wrong.

- Salary changes: Should have been much more aggressive. Still traditional PG/SG are way too expensive salary/performance wise compared to inside oriented players!

- Salary floor: Not right solution for the problem. Boycott is right way to do it! If someone is able to compete with very low salaries, he shouldn't be punished!

- Boycott: Finally!! Informing about this after season has started is NOT FAIR!!!

- Promotion/Demotion: More possibilities for lower division managers to get into higher division. This should add competition.

- Draft: Hmm....I just hope that change is really visible....not just cosmetic....

- Promotion/Demotion: I aggree it's too harsh 6 demotions.
If we want a change, 5 should be enough.
We can have :
8th : direction demotion
5th-6th-7th : PD (5-7, 6-6 with HCA to the best overall, 7-5)

Only one direct demotion, it is better for the fairness of the final standing and with this evolution more teams involded in PO/PD.
