There's more new options and features than have ever been added for a new game, and this is just the tip of the iceberg:
- [i:0c882eb442]New league option: Weighted Waivers[/i:0c882eb442]
You now have the option to set up your league so that the post-draft Waiver Priority list is ordered by [i:0c882eb442]weight[/i:0c882eb442] of draft picks lost, instead of just by the [i:0c882eb442]count[/i:0c882eb442].
- [i:0c882eb442]New league option: customizable Free Agent Drop Penalty[/i:0c882eb442]
You now have the option to set up your league so that the percentage of a player's salary that is withheld upon release is different from the default 20%.
- [i:0c882eb442]Home/Road splits[/i:0c882eb442]
Track home and road stats for each player on your team!
- [i:0c882eb442]Sort by Balance & Handedness in Player Lists[/i:0c882eb442]
Sort player lists from 9L Balance to 9R, or vice versa. Or filter by right-handed pitchers only, or switch-hitting batters.
- [i:0c882eb442]Official 2006 Players' Championship[/i:0c882eb442]
We're working with teepack to bring you the first official Strat-O-Matic 2006 Players' Championship (formerly the Players' Tour), and it'll be bigger and badder than ever. More details to be posted as they become available!
- [i:0c882eb442]New League Roster Chart page[/i:0c882eb442]
You can now review the rosters of all 12 teams in your league on one single page.
- [i:0c882eb442]Sexier Front Office page[/i:0c882eb442]
Keep up with your league's recent roster moves, and what's going on around the Strat-O-Matic Online universe, all from your Front Office page.
- [i:0c882eb442]More stats[/i:0c882eb442]
We've packed our stats displays with as many stats as we could fit.
Again, this is just the tip of the iceberg. This is just what I could pull off in the short time since I came back on to Strat-O-Matic full-time. Trust me, there's a lot, a LOT, more to come, for this game, and all our others (yes, I'm talkin' 80s, put that guitar down YountFan).
Some other things to note:
[b:0c882eb442]1 Credit transfer, 2005->2006[/b:0c882eb442]
After I clear everything with management, we will be honoring our 1 Credit Transfer policy from the 2005 game to the new 2006 game early Thursday morning. The policy is strictly as follows: if you have at least 1 team credit remaining for the 2005 game, it will automatically converted to a 2006 team credit. Please refrain from sending individual requests and questions, thanks.
[b:0c882eb442]Moderated Chat Session this Friday[/b:0c882eb442]
I'll be hosting a 1-hour live Q&A session this Friday at 2pm ET to answer as many of your questions as I can, and to just welcome you all to the new season. If it goes well I'll be doing them periodically. More details soon!
Thanks and enjoy the game!
