Gopherbashi Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 About the skill points, I think I'm letting them increase too easily. Therefore, the following change: Winning teams in the season can add one skill point overall. I'll also give one to half of teams who draw (random selection), and continue with the one point to the lucky loser. Anyone who won can add one skill point total (not per section) - just PM me with your changes. Lucky draw teams are Trail & Castlegar, Windsor Rum Runners, Farmers FC, and DR Legion. The lucky loser is Hans Island, who gets to add points as well. Also a reminder that you can change you skill levels to whatever values you want for your first three league games, as long as you keep a minimum of 30 in each category.

Gopherbashi Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 Also, regarding skill - be careful about balance. ie. If you have great passing skill, that's wonderful; you can do nice, long passes. But if you have no receiving skill (lead), it's not going to do you much good. Every skill calculation except for one (whether your shot is on or off target, and I may change that) is based on the ratio between offensive values and the corresponding defensive values. It's kind of cool in that neglected skill areas may not matter much if everyone else is neglecting them too, while it may be difficult to run away with things in important areas if everyone else thinks those areas are also important. It also means that you start to get diminishing returns if you overload certain areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopherbashi Posted April 25, 2017 Author Share Posted April 25, 2017 And player names are working again - turns out that I loaded them into the program... and then set them all to null afterwards. Special thanks to Nanaimo Barre and Porcupine Gold Rush for being my guinea pigs in a three-match showdown, with two of those being ET thrillers.

matty Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I think my keeper Ricky Rick should be on the team of the week. Sure he only stopped 75% of on-target shots he faced and lost 2-0, but he's named after a character played by Tommy Wiseau and I imagine him having a similar personally to that character (incompetent drug dealing mubler who is the son of a billionaire but needs a low paying job for some reason).

Gopherbashi Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 Just a couple of notes: Home team for the next round will be determined by higher division: MLS > DRFL > NASL. If two DRFL teams meet, it will be by random draw. Skill totals were as follows: MLS: 144 NASL/USL/DRFL: 120 PDL & top 6 L1O: 96 PLSQ & bottom L1O: 88 Challenge Trophy: 80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to the rematch against Espanola in the V-Cup. @Gopherbashi is it a 1 or 2 skill point game for V-cup Victories? Many thanks!
