I think this enables you to solve all of your doubts :)

Yes, all but one. The question about equity in scouting points for the teams in my league. Following your logic, then, those teams that have been playing longer will have accrued more scouting points, thus seeing more information on a greater number of players....

unless of course all teams in one league are assigned to that league on the same day....(which I think would be too difficult to do)....so, my supposition is likely correct. If a new owner takes over a team in my league tomorrow, I have almost 3 weeks of scouting points accrued already that he would have to "overspend" to "catch up"....

correct?

Yes. Players that have played longer will have an advantage.

Thanks Larry, that was quite forthright. You don't seem bad....maybe you'll have to change your name to GoodLarry or NiceLarry if you keep this up..... :)

People tell me I get a bit verbose. My apologies for my excessive use of the typed word.....

No need to apologize. I just don't have anything to add beyond the concise answer I gave. My fault for being simple ;)

I'm not saying the scouting system favoring older users is a good setup. But I can't think of a fairer system. I'm curious if anyone else has an alternative?

Well,
not that it has much to do with the lack of equity and all that, and I don't know if it's just me, but I really think the info on to-be-drafted players should be updated every week.

André, some of us already asked for that and they didn't wanted to. It was decided that this season scouting will be over 3 weeks before the end of the season and then we will see the draft prospects.

And the scouting we 'll do in those final 3 weeks will count for the next season.

No. You will only see the things described above by Domenico (and also described in the rules page)

Teams that have been playing longer will only have an advantage in that season for the draft, after that it resets and should be all even. Now, being able to afford to put money into scouting is another story...

Agreed. Obviously, teams that start in higher divisions won't have as much of a problem on account of there increased revenue. Fox, what was your TV revenue a few weeks ago?
