Team Owners and Players have 3 - days to get Rosters together/find teams.

Developers have 48+ days to work on bugs, enhancements, tweaks and play additions.

Seems pointless to announce changes to the SIM after the period passes where players can be respeced if they are already signed to a team.

What is the point in waiting until the (1 day) pre-season before the first league game begins to announce changes to SIM and make owners scramble with SIMs and such to see how the new plays/tweaks/changes will impact a roster.

It would be nice if any of the admins/developers would chime in on this issue, instead of just looking away like this has not been the case for many seasons now.

Today we are at Day 3 of the off-season and still have no clue about any changes for the upcoming season!

Well I mean, I'll go ahead and say the "48 days to work on things" is a fallacy. Making changes without knowing the full effect of previous changes is a recipe for disaster. Even waiting and observing the changes all season doesn't paint a full picture of a season's changes, but it's all there is to work with. As much as I would like every change to be thoroughly tested, we have two people with servers that take an hour to run a game. The full effects aren't know until they hit live and people get a chance to test, abuse, and exploit them over a season or two.

As for why they haven't been uploaded in the past 24 hours, we have had server difficulties which means we haven't been able to merge and compile, let alone upload our changes.

Thx for the reply.

So if that is case why not give us an extra day during the offs season to adjust players as necessary with respecs if needed!
