Sim schedule?

[SoobieTech]

Do we have a start day and a schedule in place? I'm sorry if I overlooked it, as I've tried to keep up on the firum but have not seen this info. Thanks.

I posted this in another thread, but here you go.

Just as an update, I'll be posting a preseason sim schedule and some league rules tonight. The first sim will cover the midweek turn prior to the first exhibition games. This will give everyone a chance to make cuts, make trades, and pick up free agents.

So the general idea here is that you'll make whatever transactions you want and send me an export. I'll run the first midweek turn, your cuts/trades/signings will be processed, and then you'll all download new league files. Then whoever is playing in the first week (just me and Phoenix, apparently) will need to get their depth charts and gameplans set. Then we'll sim the first week's games, you'll download new league files, and repeat. Everyone who isn't me and Phoenix has until the 2nd exhibition week to finalize their depth charts and gameplans for their first game.

So midweek turn, game sim, midweek turn, game sim, etc etc. I'll make a more detailed post from home later this evening, but I wanted to give everyone a heads up as to where we're headed.

Also, tentative deadline for the first export is Sunday night. I figure I'll make it late so people have a chance to explore the game a bit, as well as the rules that I'll be posting later this evening.

Don't worry, once we get going we'll adopt a more formal and rigorous sim schedule. But I want to ease into things while people have a lot of questions about the process.

Sounds perfect, Skerik. This league is going to be really enjoyable once we all sort of "get used to the water".

Where?

I think you need a couple Commish only threads for important stuff. I'm fishing through stuff and would rather have one place where I can get information like the sim schedule etc.

That would be really helpful.

I didn't even know the files were ready until I poked through one of the threads and I have absolutely no idea when the next sim is due.

But I'm pretty dense about the easy things. I can handle the hard crap.

Another question. Are you wondering what the hell you just got yourself into, Skerik?

;)

Only a handful of times today. :D

And I agree that board needs some organization. My job is kicking my ass right now, but I'm hoping to devote some time to the league and the forums over the weekend.

Hey, no worries. The site itself is nicely organized (kudos to our webmaster) and that will help. The only reason I even ask about the sim schedule is because FOF doesn't save stuff very well. Like at all. So, it doesn't make much sense to make moves if you don't have a place to pop an export.

If that makes any sense. But as long as I can upload one, and I think I can, I'm good to go.
