Once a players reaches 480 days old he enters decline and loses a portion of his attributes every 8 days.

My suggestion would to allow the option of the player continuing on with his present attributes (no attribute decline), if an agent so wishes, for a season or seasons at a cost of 100 FPs per season.

This would allow for agents with good players to continue on and for GLB to still receive income from these old players.

If an agent has players with builds he doesn't like he can retire then as usual.

I think it would make WL better if they allowed that.

Um... wouldn't this have much more of a chance if it cost x2 the original cost in flex of the dot to continue each season with a max of 5 seasons beyond day 480? (so a 100 flex dot would cost 200 flex to continue... 200 costs 400... and 300 costs 600 flex.) This is a 'money driven game' and doubt anyone would save SP's (since you don't get any more once you hit a certain level/age) just to continue past decline.

NO, I stand by 100 SPs/season as a reasonable amount.

In that case, -1

not if they are still training and gaining VP's again as decline dots do

should be called unlimited plateau at a cost.

Perhaps a better idea would be to charge a flex fee to limit or mitigate the decline. Spend the dot cost per season to have it decline every 20 days instead of every 8

But unlimited plateau at 100 SP per season would simply bloat the game and not provide for dot turnover, so -1 to the original idea

Not really since nobody would do this. As long as it costs SP's, which are highly important to the end build of the dot's skills, then nobody is going to throw away SP's in the 100's just to have a worthless dot for an extra season or two. if it costs flex instead, sure... LOTS of people would do it. But SP's? Nobody but newbs would do it.

how would you even take 100 sps from a player? i'm guessing that he really meant flexies. and no way for only 100 fp per season especially for hb/qb/wr. i did like the 2x the player base price tho with a 3 or 4 seasons cap. i wouldnt mind seeing some kind of play count per player. irl, some players play for decades , but others barely last a few seasons because they were overplayed in college or got injured.

imagine a system where you have to balance playing time (ie tp) and longevity. would also be a great way to add injuries. players would continue to play in the game, but their longevity counter would decrease. so start each player with say 160 points of post plateau longevity. player suffers a concussion, subtract say 4 days, tears an acl, subtract 40 days, etc. injuries would be mostlu agent control events, ie playing tired, playing against older players, etc. then a few things from others players such as being pancaked, monster hits, etc. but none of the pure random crap like penalties are.

Roses are red, violets are blue. If Bort logged in, he'd think this is great too!

Lol, I read it as flex points, and then repeated the mistake. Good thing that only about 5 of us actually read anything in here

But bort borted himself to death, and euchrid willl now show up and tell us this isn't true even though he has no shred of evidence and there is evidence that bort hasn't done much (or anything) in ages.
