I would like to see agent voting play a part in what dots make probowl. No voting for your own dot, and agent vote only accounts for 40%. Rest is all on GLB player league rankings.

For EVERY league. Actual sim I can live without , but give a trophy to dots that make it. The voting would give us agents another thing to do if we wished, and the added Bling is something this game needs.

How cool would it be to be able to brag "my punter is an 8 time all-pro"


+1 to both this and OP

I think it would be a great idea, and perhaps even a great scouting/development tool. I'm just not sure how to make it work though.

I would like to add a few things to this discussion:

1) no voting for a player on your team.
2) GLB Rankings are a part of the nomination process, as previously stated
3) team owners can nominate players on their teams for consideration - as long as it is not their own dot
4) the ranking system is used to weed out nominated players who don't meet specific statistical criteria
5) no CPU dot may ever be nominated - period

Is there any-way to offer the leagues best the opportunity to participate in a league wide pro-bowl after the season has concluded as an incentive for being some of the league best?

Some of things to consider offering
1) Pro-Bowl shall be held after the Championship game <--Don't even need to actually sim the games IMO
2) Winners of the Pro-Bowl shall receive a trophy in the trophy case. <--I think all players voted to probowl should receive, win or lose
3) MVP/s of the Pro-Bowl shall receive a free endorsement for one year <--Soon as they code in game MVP's...but still not fair so I would say -1
4) Participants of the Pro-Bowl shall receive one free boost or 90 Bonus tokens as a reward. <--- No, unfair advantage.
5) Participants of the Pro-Bowl shall receive a badge of honor somewhere on the players page. <--sure, on awards page would be good
6) Participants of the Pro-Bowl shall be elected according to The League Leading Category. <--I still think adding agent vote and league rankings would be good for GLB
7) Every League shall have it's own Pro-Bowl. <-- Yes

Just a thought here but aren't some leagues so weak with human dots/teams that there might be an issue coming up with a full roster of 2 pro-bowl teams without including CPU players or players not meeting preset criteria? Perhaps when we finally get out of BETA and start getting more humans into GLB, then this idea is good. Right now I'm not sure it works.

I would do the pro bowl picks sort of like a fantasy league, you get from 1-10 points for being in the top 10 of a stat category and the players withe the top point totals make the Pro Bowl

So a QB you would do:
Completion %
Yards
TDs
QB Rating

OL would be
Pancakes
least Sacks allowed per play
least hurries allowed per play

You could do a Blocking FB and a rushing/Rec FB
Blocking TE/Rec TE

They may have to adjust some stats but it should be pretty easy to do

That was a pretty tight game. GLB won't let me see more than the box score though.

I think they could do it if it was just automated without human coaches and just some basic tactics. Just take the top ranked players in the league at their positions for the rosters. If users just took it for what it is and did not bitch and moan about it it would be a fun game to watch.

well, not EVERY league.

No D-League. Give more incentive to sign with human teams.

Players already have a conference rank. If there are votes and human factors this will never happen. Everyone thinks their player is the best. Also a team with 50+ agents would get 50+ votes, where a team with 20 agents would get just 20, so that would not be fair.

I mentioned it before in the OP; Bort and Co. should utilize the standardized voting process to nominate Pro-Bowlers. I agree that the standardized voting process has it's flaws; but, with a few tweaks, it might work. With enough input; we just might find a solution to the problem.
