After reading the most recent Admin Announcement, it got me to thinking (shut up don't even say it) why not have the end of the season related "stuff" set up for the option of scheduling boosts similar to auto training, or have boosts as an independent scheduling.

This goes along with purchasing of stadium construction and potentially setting ticket prices, the latter of which is not really that much of a concern just wanted to add this in case it was prevalent in the matter.

Instances to pop up and in some rare or random case where members cannot get to an internet connect on day 46-48 then we can always say "tuff tig ole bitties"

Just something to consider... since I haven't planted a suggestion up here in a good while (for good reason).

What happens when someone has 2500 flex and schedules 3000 flex worth of boosts? You could set up a system that would put flex in a "pending" status but that would take some database changes (which Catch indicated are being avoided for now). Same "argument" could be made here as is made with auto-leveling equipment.

I do like the idea, though.

Well similar to auto training, if you set it and it doesn't compute with what you intended, that is user error as it should all have been calculated in advance.

So let's take your example...

Scheduled boost on day 47 for 5 players... roughly 4500 flex. If a member only has 4000 flex, an alert could be sent to them stating there was not enough to complete the final boost, but will still use as much as possible to boost what it can.

Auto-Boosts would occur around 12am in conjunction or soon after training is finish to eliminate system overload (we know training takes long enough as it is so it would possibly add another 1 to the process).

Then again, there could be some message to let the member know that they cannot schedule xyz boosts as they do not have enough to complete such task(s).

Like I said, not against it but based upon recent statements made its not something I'd get my hopes up for.

I'll speak on behalf of our Armed Forces Servicemen and women who might play this game. Sometimes you don't get to log in whenever you want... and sometimes that amount of time can get extended. I'm not saying that we should have unlimited time to get things done... but what Dahman said has merit. Good minds can figure out the "how's"... but the idea is sound and deserves thought. Serious thought. (And here's an aspirin for Dahman too. )
