Do you have the 1-7 year options for drafted rookies, wheeler? I'm wondering what's amiss with lewdog.

lewdog, I am going to take over your team for a few minutes to see if I see the problem on my end. I will quickly report back.

[cdcox]

Yeah, I see it too. Weirdest thing that it would do this just for you. I will dig into it, but don't sign anyone in the mean time.

[cdcox]

Now mine is doing it???? I was hacking on the code tonight, I wonder if I broke something?

[cdcox]

Ok it is fixed. I made a new version of that page, and some how the old version made an ugly appearance. Should be good to go.

I envision cdcox as a M*A*S*H doctor on this stuff. A problem comes in and he rushes to the operating room to save the patient.

[cdcox]

It's more like I operated on the patient the first time and accidentally left a glove inside the patient and then had to do emergency surgery to save him. I swear I don't have a coders version of Munchausen by proxy, but it sure looks like it.

[lewdog]

Works today!

Thanks.

[wheeler08]

It worked for me to begin with and we signed all of our rookies to
Super cheap deals!

Sucks you can only sign 2 guys and have to give them atleast 5 years. When does free agency begin?

We wanted to have active free agency and require a few tough decisions. If all the players worth having are locked up free agency won't be as much fun.

I will probably start free agency up over the weekend.

I think it’s a great design. Really makes you think, even on good players, if 5 more years is really worth it.

Yes, it really makes you commit to someone, or not, let them go.

I can’t recall my defense as 4-3 or 3-4.

The game strategy tab isn’t working. How else can I check?

I'm pretty sure that you can reset it each year as a once-yearly decision. So build your team how you want and then set it when the depth charts open up.
