2105-2106 Offseason Thread

[Huckleberry]

This is the thread for all discussion of offseason activities during the 2105-2106 offseason.  This first post will be updated throughout the offseason and will also include links to other threads or amendment votes that come up during this time.

OFFSEASON IS NOW COMPLETE.

[Huckleberry]

Just a general heads up, I've been swamped at work and with life lately, but I do intend to move to daily sims here shortly.  Also, please install the latest patch available here:

before Monday's sim.

Any predictions?

[Huckleberry]

I'm going to try to publish my system's predictions this week, and then will post the OOTP predictions on the season thread.  Unfortunately my system hasn't been updated at all since last year so it will probably be off more than usual.  Just haven't had time to update things.

What do you mean by your system?

Just a spreadsheet I have to estimate player values, etc., based on their ratings.  I'm a spreadsheet nerd.

Last Place, HUZZAH!

[Claybor]

London was in the running until the final sim or 2 last season, and should be improved this year. Our goal is to once again be competitive, and for this year a winning record. Hopefully better then 70 wins. 

[Coop]

I'll make a few IBL predictions based off the predictions that were posted:

I predict that the Claymores will win fewer games than predicted, but the Foxes, Monarchs and Merlions will win more than predicted.

Not going to say anything about the ABL because I don't know its teams as well.  (For that matter, events might show that I don't know the IBL teams that well either.)

[Txhorns]

You are clearly wrong Coop as Rome is obviously going to win it all this year.

[reflections311]

Bandits looking on putting last years disappointment behind them and win it all this year.
