So i dont have as much info as i wished to have....life is busy. But i have begun putting together a new site and am trying to weigh the pros and cons between sticking with STHS or moving to FHM. I would love to hear everyone's thoughts on an engine change and some final input on if we start fresh or if we try to keep rolling as we have. I have spoken to Al and we are both working on stuff to try and get this moving, in the meantime i think the safest timeline for this to start back up would be season start (barring any major setbacks) As i told Jon when i discussed with him i dont want to start a complete refresh if the majority of the league would be against it, but at this point it seems most of us would just be happy that the league starts back up. A few points on what you said: 1. If there is something non-techy I can do let me know. Unfortunately I have zero web skills so can't help with the website, but in the past have helped with mining stats and other things if there is something to do there. 2. I don't know enough about the different engines so whatever more knowledgeable people think I will go with. 3. With us having to do at least 2 drafts, I think, and a bunch of other things that could cause headaches- retirements, guys joining form Europe, undrafted players joining I think the best way is to start over. I understand this is easy for me to say since my team is about 20 years away from being 20 years away so if guys with strong teams they have built want to stick with our current teams I fully understand and will be fine going along with that.

Quick update: Site is coming along. once i can get everything linked up i think the best plan is to stick with STHS and start basically JGHL 2.0. Ill update more soon (im hoping this weekend) then we should be able to move to setting up the new league file and begin planning for the initial team drafts. I will also have to gather team info from all the managers that plan on sticking around.
Thanks for the patience everyone!

Awesome.. so just a quick clarification - when you say JGHL 2.0, does that mean we're starting over as in new rosters?

I didnt get as far as i wanted over the last few days, busy helping with an event, but i am hoping to get it finished by this weekend. That can give time for Managers to decide if sticking around for a redraft is something they want to do.

Quick question but how long is a redraft that has to fill every roster and farm squad and prospect pool from dead stop?

When we did it originally i think we did 35 rounds live? the rest was covered by the waivers process. A lot of current prospects will end up hitting unassigned in the next few years, but thats not a bad thing! Shawn

The length of the draft should probably be based off of how many players are ratedβ¦. Are we going with the same ratings system?

I'm in for redraft, sounds exciting, even though my roster was just starting to get really good

I have finally figured out a way to link the info to the site. I apologize to everyone for the long delay, life has been busy. I will be doing one big run at the site over the next week. it wont be pretty but it will work and keep the league going so i can keep picking at it. I will be posting a thread in the coming days to finalize everyone's teams and participation. Thanks for holding out.
