1) Jason referred to "the ridiculous collection of icons behind his head" which made me chuckle but also revisit the ongoing dilemma that I have as to whether to display them all or truncate them like Bluenoser does. So far, the "curtain of bling" effect is in effect for me but I am wondering what mine will look like for some of my older stars, given the modded icons that I use.

2) I also haven't had occasion to look at retired players much in my young league yet. I noticed above that, instead of advancing their age into ridiculous territory, they list only "Age at retirement" on their player profile pages. (Although ages do advance in player lists, I see.) This is a nice touch and I am not sure whether it is something that was changed recently.

Anyway, lots of monsters in this thread! One cannot fully appreciate the magnitude of these numbers as much as the league owners who saw these players develop, dominate, make their incredible marks, and fade away.
Indeed the ever puzzling "What to do with Award Icons". When starting a new league I leave them at full, mostly because no player has accumulated many yet. Once they start to build up I truncate at 3, and after about 20 seasons I go to 1.

The only change I would like to see is when they are truncated, the number in the red circle that indicates the amount won would only show on mouse hover.


Absolutely agree, fun thread. Really enjoy seeing fictional "Greats of the Game"
