Change the currency of contracts - tlk742 - 08-26-2017

As of right now, there is no incentive for a good player on a good team to not take a team friendly deal. In fact, the more active players have an incentive to take lower payments as articles and graphics equalize that payment.

Money is also infinitely available, which is fine. Not saying do away with that.

Instead, what I suggest are tpe-based contracts and caps. Each team has a finite tpe they can spend on players. Tpe is finite even for the most active of players. As a result players may want to go to a weaker team with more tpe to spend in contracts.

Kudos to the people on discord who also discussed this idea.

I fully support this idea. However, there will be a lot that needs to be discussed if this is decided. Would be a real shock to the current system.

There are positives and negatives to this idea. I think that there HAS to be some kind of incentive other than money. Like you said, the most active players don't need money and could just take team friendly deals.

The downside though is TPE would drastically change FA, and a worse, younger player, needs TPE to get better. It could be even more of an incentive to have teams giving TPE to younger players. I don't know what the best solution is. I feel like TPE is a better option that money, but I'm not 100% sure.

I would still much rather see minimum salaries raised to see less disparity between a team friendly deal and a big pay day.

We already give out more TPE than I would particularly like to. We will not go a step further and have even more TPE handed out in the form of contracts. TPE inflation is something we must ensure we don't fall into.

Yea I can definitely see that. Do you think we'll fall into problems though with experienced players taking low salary amounts? I think a higher veteran minimum could be a problem as well.

The salary cap is fluid until we have things fully fleshed out. It will be adjusted as need be both increasing and decreasing if needed. We wont really know how things go until we have users up at that max tier for contracts.
