I made slight modifications to the FPR Rules.
I am going to allow up to 100 FPR points to be cashed in to Reward points, but no more than 25 points may be cashed in at a time, no more than once per season. It was 50. I think this will give flexibility to owners as they see fit.
I also reduced the loyalty refunds from 5-10-15 points for the player's 10th, 15th and 20th year anniversary back to 5-5-5 points; I had been thinking about it and the maximum 30 point refunds seemed too generous.

So now there is no real reward for keeping a guy around his whole career.

I dunno about the whole fpr transfer to reward points...what's stopping me besides not being a jerk from trading in as much of CWS fpr points as I can while I'm here before leaving for Toronto.

I think in situations like yours where you're simply running the team before taking over the team you REALLY want there has to be a "what's best for the league" type of scenario in place, where maybe the commissioner, or someone appointed by him goes and looks at potential player reservations for a given team and then makes sure the current GM of the team is acting in it's best interest. I would say Frank Thomas is a must for the Chi-Sox. Fisk potentially. I guess if you could say Thomas is the only must have, then you would have plenty of points any how. I just don't think it's best for the league to let interim type GM's screw up a team for future GM's.
