I spoke with Spence about this idea, and we both believe this has the chance to create more activity in the league. If you assign an assistant GM on the waiting list to your team, you will receive 25 reward points for the season.
The head GMs can do whatever they want with their assistant gm, but some ideas are... - Write articles for the benefit of the team - Make trades - Look for trading partners - Sign FA's - Make trade blocks
Also, this gives potential gms the experience needed before taking the reigns of their own team.
One note, post totals by assistant GMs will NOT be counted toward rewards at the end of the season, only the head gm.
If you assign an assistant gm, state what they can and cannot do for your team. For instance, Kev is letting CC be involved with the team, but ultimately, all decisions will go through Kev.
Hopefully this just creates even more posts and activity, both, on the board and off, and makes the league even stronger.
If anyone has anymore ideas that can help this, post them here.

Do articles written by Asst GMs get full credit?

though it's extremely doubtful, imagine each team having an assistant, or even half?
this forum would be getting even more posts per day, if possible
essentially, this is pretty much like building a front office

What this could lead to one day if things got serious enough...
"If a GM fails to field a winning team in a reasonable amount of time and/or if the team fails to improve or if the team seriously under-performs, the GM may be "replaced" by his assistant... and would then have to become an assistant in order to work his way back up to full GM status one day."

So far this is workin out great. The Lakers assistant has offered me Fortson for Bender and Miles, along with 01-06 draft picks. I've agreed so I hope Spencer doesn't mind...

OK, well clearly Spencer's fault... I'm still showing as the Warriors gm and HOS is showing as the Suns gm...
Never mind, this LA assistant is off the hook.

Eh never really liked the idea of assistant GMs. Nothing against them its just I like to work solo. So if I fuck up, its on me. But I do think its a good idea for GMs waiting and to spur up activity in the league.
