Yes this a million times this. Even $10 is fine by me.

... and let league admins adjust SPP on teams for their leagues so I don't have to have snot builders to get players up to snuff.

And if we could also add skills and adjust stats, then we could go nuts with trading players in our league Smile

Also more than 26 teams in an open RR.
Replace dropouts with standard Filler teams. Currently get a wrong division error.

You can use fillers to leave space for latecomers also to fill out 4 team finals.

I would love it if the gamefinder would hide coaches I've played in my last 10 ranked matches. IIRC, it's against site rules to play against the same coach in ranked more frequently than every 10 matches. I consistently play at certain times, and I always worry that I'll forget and play somebody twice in four matches or something.

A bunch of this has been said, but here is my ideal league options breakdown (in no particular order):

- ability to upload results from TT games and intermix them with online results in leagues. If two teams are scheduled, you would be able to click a TT upload button, it would display the game results page, but every field could be amended; number of turns, injuries, SPPs, cas, etc, etc.

- ability to manually configure tournaments. I would love to be able to have my preset 17 week schedule as a template, and just assign each team in the league a spot and it creates my schedule. Also a great schedule maker here as a basis: http://schedules.footballguys.com/

- add or remove any races you want from your league

- create your own rosters and positionals for them. (Secret League, etc.)

- create players for teams with extra/different base skills. E.g. for KPL, you could create a Skeleton with a Chainsaw, no Secret Weapon, 0SPP, and whatever cost you want. It would then skill normally.

- add skills to players as desired

- Create custom "prizes" that can be given to players that don't count toward skill slots. Similar to tournaments.

- Trade players between teams.

- League admins can change Apothecary/money/coaches/etc. for their league teams.

- A log for each team of all manual changes made to them/their players

- I will think of more I am sure...

Roster creation would be over the top amazingly awesome!

The best idea i have read so far.

Secret league would actually be close to that as there is so many teams already created. As it was said, lets not waste so much work.

I would really like a vertical view in stead of the horizontal side view. I am new to fumbbl and this us my most difficult point to get over. I am a TT player and use to sit at an endzone and watch the game from there.

I agree! I found this annoying in tabletop games. Don't worry, you get used to it quickly. =D

If you don't know you're playing somebody too much, I doubt you are playing somebody too much.

The rule is one in ten on average, not playing somebody twice in your last ten games. Remember staff aren't here to make your life hard, they're here to prevent cheating.

A calendar would be awesome. Where admins can add tourney deadlines and accessible to all participants.

For players that would mean having all their deadlines from all their tournaments in a single calendar.

Yes this a billion times this.
would be a great help for us league admins aswell as busy league players.
auto forfeit option/coin toss when deadline is reached too.
