New Team Re-Draft Rules with OBBLM?

[TedStriker]

So is there any easy way to do the new team re-draft rules with obblm? Any easy way to copy/move characters from one team to another?

Is this on the list to add?

I have recently guided our league through the new re-draft process and during that came up with some local tweaks and a design for my installation of the page.

I posted it as a design proposal on the NAFLM github:
https://github.com/TheNAF/naflm/issues/204

In the current version, most of the process can be done currently with a combo of a few workarounds, some manual processes and with the admin cockpit actions. But it's not really a process and if you have a larger league this will be a nightmare for the commish/admin.

Yeah... I've been putting off our first playoff series post-BB2016 as this seems like an absolute nightmare!

We have managed to do most of the redrafting in our (small) league, but getting rid of fan factor is still a problem. The option in the league settings allows existing teams to buy FF, but not dropping it, as the notes says it should.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Hmm, i thought Admins can adjust Fan Factor, but it seems not ... seems like we just ignored the FF adjustment in our season changes

The problem might be that FF is always calculated from the teams starting FF over all match reports (and then buffered for dislay until it changes). So you can't just adjust the current value, you need to store a separate modifier in the DB. Need to check how buying FF is handled.

NAFLM has two lots of FF per team; the purchased FF and the earned FF from matches. Only the purchased FF can be adjusted by the Admin but I am not sure if they could enter a negative value to cancel out the earned FF.
