Actually I think the current impact of daytrading is overrated. Effective Daytrading is a thing of the past, as of late it´s very hard to get ANY money out of pure transfer moves.

I think "tanking" (which is btw legal) is a more key issue - it has to be (a) less economically profitable, (b) less intriguing in case of draft picks and (c) severely punished when it happens in combination with walkovers.

Also, a "luxury tax" could be interesting: once your bank account holds more than 10 times the average salaries of your season, you have to pay 0,5 % "taxes", more than 20 times 1 %, more than 25 times 2 %.

It would become alot harder to play the game the Dagobert Duck way then.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at with my transfer periods. Often times in football a team buys a high wage player in an attempt to stay up, then relegates and sells him off a half season later. No problem with that. The constant wheeling and dealing, however, is unrealistic and rewards managers who have too much time on their hands. Harry Redknapp would not be amused (his dog might, however)

I also like the idea of chemistry hits, which would be greater for new acquisitions with less experience but would be lessened for veterans, but let's start with fixing the TL itself before messing with the sim

if you watch european basketball you would have been used to it ;) And when i saw some transfer, or the work in the summer for the puerto Ricuan PO many EU professional do it is the same in other continents.

In germany we have a longer "no transfer" period before the PO, and can "just" add 6 new player after the season start to fight it. And luckily the times are done, where many teams change 90% of there roster ebtwen season.(even when my favorite team just keep four pros this season, but at least they didn't need so much new player during the running season through luck with injuries and lucky or good scouting).

And i have really trouble to understand, why less transfer make other tactics more attractive?
