I did not read all the posts yet, so i dont know where everyone is at right now. But I do not care what we do here. I do not mind the idea of fake players because it is interesting and anyone can be good or bad, it is pretty cool, so keeping this league going would be awesome. But the idea of a restart is always promising and fun, and it should be a good time. I just have a question would we keep restarting the leagues to avoid fake players? That can be kind of annoying, when teams are prepare for the future or rebuild and the league restarts. Like myself, I was preparing to rebuild, but it doesnt bother me at all, we were going to suck so bad, this just avoids that. So i will vote yes, why not. should be fun. I just hope that everytime we get to the fake players, we have to restart. Your gonna suck bad in the new BBS as well so your pretty much avoiding the inevitable.

So basically, we re-start every time we hit 2013?

Creations drafts are a must. No way to restart with out them, I love building my own team as does everyone else.
Also, I agree with Pig that we should start in 1995 or 1998 or something. Before you know it we will be back at this point where we are now, FBB 2 has no come out yet, and fake players would be the topic of the next draft.

I'd much rather do retro than fake. I brought this up a couple weeks ago and people were against it, Spence said it would take too much time too.

I think doing retro outside of its original generation is kind of cheesy and unrealistic. We're reaching into a period in the league where most prospects are going to be practically unknown so I don't see why fake players is much of a difference than that.

i dont have a problem with fake players and with the unknown time period of when fbb2 comes out i dont see why we need to restart but restarting is always fun and unpredictable for the first few years
retro was fun last time... should be more interesting this time if we continue on current draft setup of good players being potential busts and players coming out in any current year

also about anyone could help spencer make draft profiles for retro players so then he could just tweak ratings for how he wanted and set potential however he wanted

Fake players will be interesting. And if it doesn't work out, than we start over.

I dont see the problem with the league as is. I dont see the need at all to re-start. I think BBS is at its peak right now. Unless people really have a problem with fake players then im all for whats best for the league but my real question is are we going to be restarting in 2010 every time? This will always happen. The strong will seperate from the weak and we'll reach this point again and again. The real challenge is being able to keep going for a lot of years. People dont like fake players because there's more uncertainty. Basically i see it as people are not down for a challenge. If thats how it is then so be it. I mean i dont care because im going to always do well. I just wish i saw some more competiveness in guys. I dont like krup but he gets down and dirty and adds to the competitiveness for me. Nobody has a team like reilly had where different teams can't be competing every year. Pig won back to back, aaron had his cinderella ride, gp won a couple. It's not like guys are dominating. I'll be alright with a restart but im not going to re-start a couple months later if fbb2 comes out. That's my main worry. Im for whatever Spence and the league think is best but IMO I say we ride it out for a couple months and see what happens. FBB2 could come out you never know or if guys really hate fake players then fuck it let's restart but let it be the last time. Everyone here is experienced so either you've learned how to run a team or not. Just throwin my 2 cents out there.
Right now my vote would be no. I couldnt actually vote though for some reason on my sidekick so just add 1 more to the no column

I say we try out the fake players for a couple months, if the majority doesn't like it, re-start. At least give it a shot.

Get CC back in. Let him start with his own team, and reveal him to be the terrible GM we all thought him to be since he first got here.

1 - there is nothing wrong with fake players. Spencer can still alter computer created players in order to make draft profiles etc.
2 - creation drafts take forever. But if we do restart, that is probably the best way to go.

and if we do restart... lets implement the rule that a team must have at least 1 1st round pick over a two year span(ie. No 1st this year, must have a 1st next year). That way teams cant stockpile 1sts(which is very unrealistic)... and teams wont go without a 1st for 3 or 4 or more years, especially their own.

I think that's too harsh. Maybe over a three year span.

three year span might be a lot better. I could see that really working out.
