Hey everyone. This will be my post for role call / draft vote so if everyone could try and get in touch with whoever they can we can give everyone an opportunity to decide. There has been arguments on both sides for a redraft, and id hate to lose anyone to this, but it may be what's best for the league. Please vote and we can see what the league collectively decides. HEADS UP: because I am not using the original ratings files and equations, the players on your teams from before will probably not rate the same. VOTE HERE: strawpoll.com/polls/e6Z2elNYJgNOn top of the daft vote, I would like to get everyone to send me a response at the link below so I can start assigning teams to managers. This is to give an opportunity to GMs to take on teams that have not been in the league before, ALL TEAMS IN THE LEAGUE BEFORE WILL HAVE FIRST DIBS GIVEN TO THEIR CURRENT MANAGER! if there are conflicting teams i will reach out to managers and we can come to a solution.ANSWER HERE: forms.gle/xd3ytgv83bNxMU3B7Im really excited to get this back on the road i know there is still LOADS of work to be done, but again i appreciate everyone sticking this out and helping keep this awesome league alive!

Before I vote I just want to say (and I'm sure others might feel the same way) that I'm not necessarily "in favor" of re-drafting the league, however I'm also not opposed to it if that's what the majority wants. So with that mindset I'm not really sure how to vote on the poll lol
Maybe there should be a 3rd option like โIโm good with eitherโ.

Iโm good either way, or even half way with a certain number of keepers.

Starting fresh really does make the most sense. If you can make your team great once, you can certainly do it again.

Boys, just a thought.
I see a lot of guys voting for no redraft (I voted fine with either). In a perfect world with all my draft picks and young players, I'd probably be a fan of that too. But I think we have to consider how much extra work reinventing the existing JGHL might be for Hunter. I could be wrong but making sure the 100s of players, prospects and draft picks get reassigned to their existing teams sounds like a big undertaking.
So if you want the JGHL to continue, like I do, maybe we all should be open to a redraft, if its the best way to continue this amazing little club we have and ease the burden on Hunter to get it organized.
Just my 2 cents.
Joe

If that's the case than I would probably support continuing where we left off. But I am good with whatever is easier for Hunter.

i wish it was that easy, but from what i gather with discussions from Jon, STHS has progressed to another sim engine and Version of the client, i can try loading an old file but i don't think there is any guarantee it loads.

I'm pretty positive Hunter can load my league file into his version of the sim and everything would be there. That's how people who updated from V2 to V3 would have done it without having to create an entire new league. The only real "concern" is that I was using V2 of the sim and Hunter is using V3. In V2 you were able to select which sim engine you wanted to use for games, I don't know if that option is available in V3. If it is, then I'm pretty positive that if he used the same sim engine and duplicated my slider settings, that everything would be consistent. However he did say he was using different ratings, so it might not be "exact" as far as game results. If V3 doesn't have the option to select sim engines, I'm still pretty positive that by loading my league file that all of the team/player/contract info would still be there in his version. Did all of that make sense lol?

Did all of that make sense lol? I should be able to run an older engine, if you want to send me a copy of the file i can see if it will work. The ratings are just how it has to be untill we can figure out a system that will get us close to before but with more time to plan

Last call for votes and Manager info! ReDraft vote here: strawpoll.com/polls/e6Z2elNYJgNManager and Team Info here: docs.google.com/forms/d/1MEr2p-v4SW0-Ykcgmw9iym-SwJHXVSH0uAJw08CnwsA/editI have 18 poll votes but only 15 responses to the manager info. Responses need to be in by Monday September 5th at 11pm EST.
From here I will begin getting everything set up and we can look forward to scheduling a draft. In the mean time if anyone has any people they want to bring in as managers, it may be best to try and get that started now. I have currently not heard from 8 GMs.
