We had a few people who stopped logging in and didn't set that they were staying. Your "staying" status now resets after each season, specifically to prevent zombie owners from living forever. I was expecting one of them to drop off; the others have not contacted me.

I am setting up the multi-season league right now; expect a U2U with a signup link this weekend.

Zombie owners serve a purpose... they make me look better.

Hey, I definitely want to be in the next test league, if I'm not around, will you please just put me in Hamilton as the Hamiltonians? That would be awesome.

Just FYI i went through a draft in one of the single season leagues and our highest rated gaurd was a B+ highest rated LT was A+. I knoow you were working on all this so I just wanted to let you know.

Don't you leave me out of the multiseason league.

You had an A+ LT?? I would have bid 1000 for a guy like that! (not really, but quite a bit..)
I've never seen a draft with a Guard or Tackle higher than A-

Drafts are like drafts in baseball... sometimes the talent is there, sometimes it isn't. The code on the football side is a little harder to generate really high-talent players I think than the baseball side. Part of that is intentional, because it gets to the point in most baseball leages that a full team of red-letter players is normal.

I actually am starting to think that numbers leagues make more sense in football. For example, a quarterback with A-/A- power/accuracy looks great on paper, but in a numbers league you may see that he's only 76/76, which I think gives a more accurate assessment of his skill level.

I had considered at one point completely changing the scale, making anything 40 and below an F and having all other grades be in 5-point increments so an A- would start at 86, not 76, but I think that would be too confusing going back and forth from baseball to football. It would, however, be a far more accurate assessment of how players perform.
