BeanSobie 91 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 First and foremost to my team, I'm sorry if the titles scared you I was just trying a little word play on the recent string of articles. Everyone is talking about the new two player proposal and I thought I would give my two cents. Well I guess it isn't much of a proposal anymore since it looks like it went through. I see a lot of the appeal of having the two players. The biggest pro being that the player pool gets an immediate jump. The league was smart to curtail this by having a pool in the first few seasons to make that there wasn't a sudden influx of players to create one super draft. However, I do have one concern that maybe wasn't brought up (or maybe was I didn't read the thousands of pages of discussion over this). But how will this effect the carryover and pensions? To me this looks like a pretty easy shortcut to get to the ideal Pension Plan. A player could create their original player then a few seasons later create their number two. Once player one hits 400 TPE they could retire that player and give the carryover to their second guy, giving them a small but noticable boost to hit 400 TPE again and retire their second player of 400 TPE. Will anyone make use of this shortcut? Maybe maybe not, but I feel it should be noted that it is there. Someone feel free to correct me if I am wrong about this being a possibility.

Higgins 3,618 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 It's okay to claim that welfare especially now with 2 players more people can take advantage of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JardyB10 4,865 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 As for carryover I feel like you can only claim carryover from a fallen player. So if in two seasons you get to create your player #2, whose name shall be Gilbert Rapes, he has to start out with the base 30 or 0 or whatever (I'm not entirely clear on that). However, when a couple seasons after THAT you decide to retire XXX TPE Wesley Babiy because he's old and shitty, you can then re-create another player with Babiy's carryover. His name is Steve Jobs. And then after that when Gilbert Rapes retires, I'm kind of assuming you can create a player with HIS (Rapes') carryover, while Steve Jobs is still active and accumulating points. It's very simple as you can see. Which actually just made me realize something that I don't if it's been acknowledged: I think it's now possible to have three players in the league at one time, if only for a season. I don't really think that's a problem, but it is amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
