International Amateur Signing Restrictions

[CardsGM_Sean]

I noticed this year that the restrictions on signing International Amatuers quietly was changed.

Was this intentional?

The first few times the ABL used the new updated rules that had a hard cap of $5 mil, not it appears to have reverted back to the previous criteria with taxes applied if going over the cap.

Honestly do not believe I touched this.
Can you point me to the setting that differentiates between the two?

I have always thought this was the way things worked with the cap checked (which I believe it is - I would have to check).

[David - Cleveland]

Oh, and rarely would I "quietly change" something without consultation, sometimes far too much consultation, Sean.

[David - Cleveland]

Able to get into the game now.
The hard cap is indeed unchecked.



Yet another item to POLL the ABL GM's about this off-season.

I don't recall changing it, but could very well have when I took over the league and updated the rules?
I do recall someone specifically asking me about whether the cap was a hard one, so may have changed it based on DM feedback from GM's.

This will be a POLL for the off-season.

Truly sorry if this inconvenienced you Sean (or any others).

The rules was changed after the last OOTP patch was released a few weeks back. Although I do not know OOTP’s reasoning. It’s this way in solo game okay as well. (Maybe because the new rule doesn’t take effect til next year???)

[David - Cleveland]

But I think the question is that the box in the graphic I posted was previously checked, which meant it was a hard cap.
Unchecked the IAFA is as you see presently in the game.

And you can check or leave unchecked in a solo game too, as you wish.

Either way, POLL coming in the off-season!

I was just curious because I based my $ for international players on the $5 mil hard cap only for it to go back to the old rules.

I am fine with the old rules, I just would like it to remain one way or the other.
