OFF-SEASON LOCK IN TEMPLATE

[Talon]

The following template is to be strictly followed for locking in for Season 17 and beyond. 
If you have questions about the template ask before posting, an incorrect format may result in penalty.

PR CAMPAIGNS  (OPTIONAL)

PR campaigns can potentially give a morale boost to a player if the campaign is well received.  It can also spawn a new nickname or gimmick that stays with the player for more than just the current season.   PR comes with a minimum expenditure of $250K from your off-season or upcoming season's bonus (must be specified in League Office).   There is no requirement for PR unless specified by a player agent during their contract talks and there is also no maximum to how many or how much PR you can do for your team.

FRONT OFFICE TAB --  Done by the Mod.  Double check for accuracy (same as above).

TEAM INFORMATION TAB -- GM fills out all information other than Team Captains, Training Camp Results, Available Draft Picks, Financial Information, Job Security, Team History, and Season Task  (all these are filled out by the Mod)

UPDATED FOR S17

[Talon]

UPDATED THIS ONCE AGAIN.  I WILL FILL IN MY STUFF AFTER YOU POST YOUR LOCK IN.

[Talon]

For this season, here is what you need to do to lock in for training camp.

1. Download the following spreadsheet (attached below)

2. Leave your roster page blank. I will copy from my mod sheet over to the "roster" page.

3. Leave Coaching Staff page blank. I will copy from my mod sheet over to the "front office and staff" page.

4. "Team Information and Strategy" page:  Fill out your mini camp and skill assignments (4 offense, 4 defense),  Fill out your play call ratio (or lock in with coaches decision),  Fill out the left column starting with "offensive play caller" and work your way down.  (any of these options can be coaches decision).   If you want to choose team captains you may, but if not your players will vote for captains.

5. Leave coaches comments page blank.

6. OPTIONAL:   You may spend a minimum of $250K (no maximum) on one PR campaign for a player on your team.  If it goes well you will receive a fan support boost (which helps your market rating) and will also boost morale and potentially provide an additional skill boost to the player in question on your roster.



When you are ready, post your .xlsx team sheet in your team thread and LOCK IN.


WARNING: You MUST be in compliance with all budgets and roster constraints when you lock in or you will be severely penalized.
