Gator Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 Team sheets are being fixed up to account for the new team morale feature, among a couple other things. CBA is about 75% done as well. With just 9 sots left available it shouldn't be much longer before we start selecting our players! Better get in now before it's too late! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a thought...if we are having say 37 rounds of inaugural draft: i favour a separate entry draft for new prospects but that is besides the point, .... if we are having a full draft to flesh out our clubs: regardless of format, what if we did an opening set of rounds with a shorter timer like the GML five minutes or so , anywhere from 2 to 5 and then the rest of teh summer with a longer format say 6 hour timers at first for rounds 6 thru 37, shortening every week to ensure we get it done in time. Separate thread for the entry draft if we have a separate entry draft. I am just posting thoughts, take me or leave em, just figured we should all spitball this to make for the best overall experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you picked last in the main draft and first in the entry draft you would get 2 of the top 33 players in the league + Connor Bedard. Seems there isn't a possible solution for this. it is the sad reality there is just no way around it: luck of the draw BUT here me out on this: once we have all our GM's in place, this is a unique situation and unique answers are needed for distinct problems. THere is no way to balance whoever gets 1st overall entry draft position, IMO, with Connor Bedard sitting there like that, however there is another Connor in the NHL who is equal to if not better than Bedard: so separating the two drafts is a big YES, but with this suggested twist: the entry draft is randomly selected before any other orders are set. This is the big reveal of why the gov gave me the highest security clearance in the nation: i sometimes have big brain. lol Draw the entirely random entry draft order first and the top 5 teams or so, maybe 7? are the bottom seven to start off the Inaugural draft of 35ish rounds. that way whoever gets Bedard and early round company wont get mcDavid as well. et cetera ad infinitum in veritus vino.

This format is not set in stone yet, but is very likely the way it ends up. If not this, something very similar. 40 Round Draft: Snake draft 12hr time limit starting out. Will shorten as season opener approaches (if league fills by then). Max of 10-15 total prospects from 2022 or 2023 NHL drafts. Max of 1 in first 10 rounds, and 3 in first 20 rounds. Teams must reach Cap floor and remain under the salary cap Teams are strongly encouraged to.make selections in a timely manner to save everyone from.needing to rush their picks later. Draft picks cannot be traded, so there is no need for trade discussions during your time limit. Draft order will be randomized live on discord by a volunteer GM Edited July 25, 2023 by Gator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Posted July 25, 2023 Author Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) IMPORTANT NOTICE: The new "Team Morale" function will be implemented right out of the gate. However the agents will NOT use it as reference until the beginning of year 2. I want to see the system in live use to see how it works over the course of a season. Making the needed adjustments as I see fit along the way. It will also give you guys an opportunity to see how it'll work before throwing it at y'all lol.

Gator Posted July 26, 2023 Author Share Posted July 26, 2023 Apologies for the delay in the CBA guys. Been putting a lot of time into the team morale system, and since doing so I've learned so many new things with Google sheets it has forced me to go back and fix up the teamsheets. Barring any interruptions along the way I'm hoping to have everything done over the next few days. I know some of you are patiently waiting for the release of the CBA to help prepare draft lists. I promise the wait won't be for nothing. There are a lot of fun new fantasy features coming to CDCGFL. Team Morale being the biggest of them all, but there's also going to be some fun tweaks to the financials system, and team captain's are going to play a role in everything as well. Hopefully I'll have everything done in the next 2-3 days, and if league is filled up I can set some dates on things such as the draft! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeanSeanBean Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 how will the draft work time wise? Are we all expected to be in attendance for a few hours, or will the draft take place over the course of a few days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we all expected to be in attendance for a few hours, or will the draft take place over the course of a few days? Will have 12 hour limits on picks.. This way people shouldn't sleep through their limit. The faster you pick after being tagged the faster the draft will go. If too many people take up too much of their 12 hour window we may have to significantly reduce the time limits leading up to the season opener. The faster we fill these 8 spots and get the draft going the better off we'll be. If all goes well the team sheets and CBA will both be done by end of tomorrow. If that happens we can begin drafting almost immediately. I will tag everyone with atleast 24 hour notice prior to the start of the draft. Be ready guys. These 8 spots could fill up any day now! If you want to start draft prepping here is the scoring structure we will be going with: 1.1 Scoring Table Forwards: Goal: 4 points Assist: 3 points Powerplay Point: 1 point Shorthanded Point: 2 points Overtime Point: 1 points Game Winning Goal: 1 points Penalty Minutes: 0.25 points per minute Hits: 0.25 points Blocks 0.25 points Hat-Trick: 3 points Defenseman: Goal: 5 points Assist: 4 points Powerplay Point: 1 point Shorthanded Point: 2 points Overtime Point: 1 points Game Winning Goal: 2 points Penalty Minutes: 0.25 points per minute Hits: 0.25 points Blocks 0.25 points Hat-Trick: 5 points Goaltenders: Win: 10 points Overtime/Shootout Loss: 5 points Shutout: 10 points Goal: 99 points Assist: 10 points Penalty Minutes: 1 point per minute *points subject to change every offseason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primal Optimist Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Curious if we will be using the NHL CapFriendly numbers for the first contracts for our already under NHL contract guys, SOrry if you covered this, but some other leagues I was a founding GM of did it this way and I think it rocked.

Yes we will be basing deals off of capfriendly. Unfortunately the masterlist I created didn't come from cap friendly, so if you're using that list make sure you double check contract info is correct before making a selection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTramFan Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I assume that points are only accumulated during the regular season? And so the winner of the 'CDCGFL Stanley Cup' will be known before actual NHL playoffs occur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
