At the end of every season your GM contract will be negociated, unless you've signed a long term deal. Right now I'm taking ideas on how to decide how much you've improved on your team. Perhaps it'll have something to do with how much you've improved your record, bonuses for awards, bonus for reaching playoffs, bonus for experience.
Still working out an equation though.

One idea I had for a league news topic would be to simulate the upcoming season using the opening day rosters as sort of an "expert prediction" type item. Then if your team consistently underperforms what they are projected to do, you are on the hotseat.
Also, what if you use the fan loyalty feature or something similar in the game itself as part of the process? If the team is hemorrhaging fans because of you, the owner probably wouldn't take too kindly to you...
Either way, for each of those ideas there would have to be a counterbalance for if you traded away popular veterans in order to build for the future. Thus you might suck this year but that's because you're gearing up for the next couple seasons.

Then if your team consistently underperforms what they are projected to do, you are on the hotseat. Eh. Predicting is a little hard. I think I'd rather compare against the stats of the former year.Also, what if you use the fan loyalty feature or something similar in the game itself as part of the process? If the team is hemorrhaging fans because of you, the owner probably wouldn't take too kindly to you... Fan Loyalty really doesn't change with the trade of veterans much, to my knowledge. Performance is mostly what it changes upon, IMO.Either way, for each of those ideas there would have to be a counterbalance for if you traded away popular veterans in order to build for the future. Thus you might suck this year but that's because you're gearing up for the next couple seasons. Such a strategy would get you fired by the Yankees, but resigned for the Royals. It depends on your team. |

You coudl use the sim multiple season on opening day. Then if you do better you will get more offers and higher offers from teams. If it goes down the you wlill be on the hotseat and only bottom of the pack teams will want to sign you. Just an idea.
