"-Each team gets 1 extension offer per year. This extension must be a full MAX offer, and will be accepted automatically. This must be done after the trade deadline and before resignings are posted."
I really don't see what the point of this is, as if it isn't hard enough to rebuild and get players from FA pool. With this rule, it makes it nearly impossible for teams rebuilding to ever be successful via FA... This isn't because I'm rebuilding, because I've always hated a rule like this. We adopted it in SLC 2 and It ruined the league.
Vote.

I dont see a problem with this rule. This is if you want to keep your best player from testing the free agent market is the point of this rule.
Because this league doesnt have that much talent in the FA pool yet and there is still alot more scrubs than there is good talent.
Sure it doesnt allow some of the best potential FAs to hit the market, but the reality is if this rule didnt exist they could still offer the full max and an extra year and get him in the FA market.
So it doesnt matter really but at the same time if you do it during the season, its one less thing to worry about in the off-season.

True, but normally a player will request max contract anyway before he tests FA, but once in a while there will be a player people do not expect to enter FA, and that's what makes FBB unique.

Exactly my point, usually these players will resign regardless, so why? I think we should at least make GMs give up RCs to do in-season extensions.

i just wish the max-extension was higher in cash. the reason for that is i feel like only a select amount of players(superstars) should be worth it.
i don't think any players who have been maxed thus far are deserving of being called "THE" franchise player, but most are worth the contract that the max-extention is currently. i can definitely understand how a team in the state that Denver is in would have a problem with that.
but to sum it up, i like max-extensions; i just think teams are getting off too easy by it. the contract numbers should be edited by the commissioner and be previously determained so that gm's won't just max any player they consider great... but only max players they literally can't afford to lose.

I like this rule because it also is like an anti-tanking rule in some respects. It definitely discourages rebuilding, and encourages trying to keep a good team together. This rule makes it harder to rebuild through FA, and when its harder to rebuild, there is less of a chance at a team blowing everything up and starting over.

i think we should bring back the committe or make the in-season once every 5 seasons

No way we bring back the committee. We could charge like 3 RCs to MAX someone, or 5 RCs. Or we could only allow 1 MAX per so many years, although I certainly wouldnt want to keep track of that kind of thing.

Every league but this one does it, the only people that won't like the idea of using RCs to Max out players are the people who only average 1-2 RCs per season.

I don't like the rule. This just makes the greater stay great. I'd like to see more of those players in free agency and bring some excitement.

I dont like the RC idea theres no way im going to get more than 2-3 rc's max. Guys that can obtain many rc's get enough rewards. League would suck if its all about being able to post and write articles rather than real gming. Maybe instead of 1 each year you get 1 every 2 or 3 seasons to mix it up a little. Let's not go crazy with everything now

Let's not go crazy with everything now What's "real" GMing? Being it that it's a sim league "real" GMing is near impossible. Writing articles, posting, and all that in essence is equivocal to teams in the NBA scouting... running players through Training Camps, etc. If you want to win, you want to use all your resources to achieve that goal. If you can't be active as everyone else, it's not the leagues fault it's your own. Like aaron said, it promotes activity, and it promotes winning.

Obviously it's not real but thanx for pointing out the obvious. I meant as far as being able to acquire assets. Activity is great in this league i just dont think everything should involve rc's. Your right that it's my problem but my main concern is balance. I'll only have a problem if rc's are used in order to be able to "buy" a player's max contract. A lot of guys can be active and others can't. The only way a league can be competitive is if there's an even playing field. A simple rule would do just fine instead of making this into an RC thing.

I have no problem using rcs to max someone. Great way for activity and people trying to trade picks and such to get the amount of rcs needed, perfect imo.

I think the RC idea is not as popular as it would need to be to work out for us.
I really dont want to change a rule that is currently up by only 1 vote.
I suppose we could create a new rule where a MAX contract can be used infrequently. SOmething like a Franchise Tag. Like with my team I can choose to Franchise Wade or Baron but not both. Maybe the Franchise player will be listed in the Team Direction thread. No other player can be MAXd on that team while the franchise guy is there.
