MAKE PROMOTION MANDATORY! It's supposed to be a good thing. There should be absolutely no reason a team can decline promotion at any level. We saw this problem arise a few times recently:
APL to WL - Apparently all the top teams declined promotion, so we kept one of their teams from last season.
CPUs all over AA leagues - Again, why not just fill these in with the teams from uncapped minors, fill those spots with teams from the highest cap, fill those in with teams from the cap below, etc, etc, etc.
Let's get these teams moving through the system, not staying stagnant. The system we have right now is a joke.
