We currently do 2 sim a week (1 sim month per week) in order to accommodate a learning curve when figuring this game out.
Some suggest that perhaps we've got the basic understanding and we need a larger sample size and more information frequency.
How do you feel about that? Can you keep up with 3 DCs a week? Is simming a month and a half each week too fast? Do you need to get more acclimated to how the game runs or are you ready to get things going?

I'm good with 3 sims per week.
I don't mind the current set up either, but we've had three sims now counting pre-season and I think people are more comfortable with the game at this point. Might as well move things along.

Yeah. 3 Sims per week is lightweight compared to the leagues I was most recently in. More than enough time to tinker with settings and seeing output is really the only way we really can learn to adjust.

Either way is fine. I can handle 3 (especially in a season where I have limited talent, lol).

I'm fine with 3...especially with the ability to electronically post our DCs (for those who can own the game), posting our settings are a snap...

Definitely prefer 3. Tues/Thurs/Sun is a good format.

I think 3 is a good idea. Not only do we need a better sample size but after the creation draft I think we need to get some free agents in the pool, some rookies to scout and draft, and a better understanding of our teams and what we need to make them better (or worse). Once we get a season or two in the league should stay steady.

As said above, I prefer 3. The slow sims are probably a factor for the recent dip in activity. Teams don't really have a proper sample size yet to really make any changes in the trading market, and this first year is absolutely going to be a feeling out kind of year.

Definitely prefer 3. Tues/Thurs/Sun is a good format. I highly doubt you'll see Tues/Thurs/Sun...more likely Mon/Wed/Fri would be my guess, though I could be wrong, but as much bitching as I've heard about weekends from some owners, I doubt we'll have any sims on a Sat or Sun. |

Yeah - it would be M/W/F if anything.

That is great. Allows me time to set stuff during the week and not have to fight finding time on weekends.
My schedule gonna get CRAZY come June where we play a game or have practice every day and I work my 40 hours as well.

I am baffled by why anyone would want to spend time on Friday preparing/viewing a sim than a Sunday evening. To me, Friday is the weekend, and Sunday is a weeknight. Whatever works for me, though. |

I can handle 3, but do not mind 2 either.. like most others though I do think once we get thru season 1 or 2 we should be fine, it just takes awhile to figure out settings, players, trade market, draft classes, coaches, which gms are who.. the list goes on and on

For him simming, maybe he has stuff that occurs Sunday Night (I do). As for everyone else, we don't have to look at anything until Monday Morning this way. |

It's not like John has been running the sims at night anyway... |

I can handle 3, but I don't see it being something that will jar more activity. Just more DCs. Trades are slow because we're all new to this and like MC said we are getting used to what seems to me 1/2 the league being GMs that are new to the ABCA. |

We'll be ready...you might have the top defense, but we are #3 in the conference and #7 overall defensively ourselves. Should be a good matchup. |
