Can any of you guys explain why we always have game changing actions at the All Star Break? The ASB is 3-4 weeks away from playoffs and those the impact can be huge to the teams who have things to play for. Interestingly enough, I braced for changes last season at the ASB and none came so yes it is pretty much expected. But still this could of waited until the end of the season....

Just curious as I shake my head

Are you talking about the staff changes? That doesn't seem to affect the playoffs really, does it?

Yes it does. When was the last time a player was injured in a game and came back that we know of. That element should exist already and if it doesn't then there is 1

Then Reducing the HCA is another element that will cause some Home Court team to be complaining as to why they lost and cant figure out how their 20k per person team gets housed by some 10k per person team when it was the other way around before the ASB.

Just 2 more random elements thrown in the game

I guess I haven't really paid attention, since I can't afford to bid for a new coach/pr/doc.

Same here. I also have an inability to tolerate most of the crap that gets posted in Global.

That is specifically why I posted this here. We also have 3 GM's and Dev's who visit from time to time................

Pure curiosity as to why these changes happen with less than a month left in the season instead of the start.....

Initially the Staff system was to be ready at the start of the season, but since the BB team ran into some unexpected difficulties with the project, it needed to be pushed back.

The decision was made that since the old system sucked so badly that the new system needed to be rolled out upon completion.

Hmm, well I think the Staff members need to be like the players - visible!

I really want to make a joke about "members" but I'll refrain for once.

I'm going to assume you mean that the attributes of other team's Staff should be visible to everyone?

You should post something in the Suggestions forum. It's not an absurd idea by any means.
