There is a new solution: (323509.2).

For properties 1,3,4, it is the same as Plan B.
For property 2, it is very low.
For property 5, it is high.

IMO, it is better than Plan D.

There is a new solution using the ranking in BBM to determine the extra promotion spot in the league: (323515.2).

For properties 1,2,3,4, it is the same as Plan B.
For property 5, it is high.
Compared to (323509.2), the team's performance in BBM is closer to their true strength.

IMO, it is better than Plan D

However, someone told me that he or she does not approve of mixing the BBM results into the league because it would make her or him hesitant when arranging the lineup, unable to do it relaxedly.

I come up with a new solution:

Plan G: For extra promotion spot, make whether exempting from paying the minimum total salary (no is prioritized) the first criteria, with conference ranking as the second, and so on.

For properties 1,2,3,4, it is the same as Plan B.
For property 5, it is high.

I guess Plan G should be easier to implement than the others.

I completely agree with the author. And in my opinion option D is the most appropriate, especially thinking about new users.
We all want and are interested in new players falling in love with the game and staying in it for a long time.

If they have planning errors due to changes of extreme sporting level in the same category when being transferred to another league with veteran managers, relegations that would mean an early change or worse yet promotions and facing leagues of an impossible level and a subsequent almost inevitable relegation.

All of this would be reasons for falling out of love with the game and cause for abandonment.

I've talked about it in the forum of my language but veteran users don't seem to see it this way.
(323597.1)

In any case, a mention of this circumstance should be included in the tutorial or in the rules manual that is in the forum so that new users know that they are playing with other rules in their first two or three seasons and the transition to "professionals" Don't take them by surprise. (in the Spanish version at least it does not appear)

In this thread (317981.1), BuzzRBeater mentioned that last login could be included as a criterion for the extra promotion spot.
I think this is worth considering.
