i haven't tested that becaue i don't want to go through and remove a bunc of silly contracts by hand, lol.

edit:
coaches are different objects that may or may not have the same variables of a player.

scouting ratings and overall roster strategy are probably all you need to worry about. unfortunately, we get virtually no info or any way to evaluate this stuff without cheating. it's 100% pure guess, because reputation is worthless information. it is predictive of nothing with confidence.

if i could easily see trade history or some other results directly tied to GM actions in game summarized, we could at least make an educated guess about these ratings. not unlike using stats for player evaluation with ratings turned off.

you do get some tidbits aobut overall roster strategy, but not enough consistently to make any informed decision. just reach into a hat blind and pick one. you will have just as much luck, because that's all we have to work on.

i thnk some group think caused this change in the game... or they didn't like the absolute certainty of the previous system, but neglected to create any rational replacement, lol. i love progress, but you have to have somewhere to land after leaping.
