14 notes across 5 sections

Player power & front-office trust

  • CHANGEMyPlayer can recommend a 65+ relationship ally to the GM from MyPlayer → Relationships → GM Recommendation Board
  • CHANGEThe GM evaluates chemistry, your front-office trust, roster space, contract status, rating upgrade, and replacement cost; accepted recommendations create real world transactions
  • CHANGEA successful recommendation builds front-office trust by 3. If the GM passes after you put your reputation behind the player, trust drops by 5 and the reason is recorded

Creator pressure becomes roster pressure

  • CHANGEThe Creator timeline calls for #FreePlayer when individual production and team results split, and calls out players being carried when wins hide bad film
  • CHANGEThree carry-level losses now trigger an actual roster review: the org can release its weakest eligible teammate and sign a credible free-agent upgrade in the live world
  • CHANGERepeated passenger games damage coach trust and feed the existing notice → trade block → release system instead of ending as flavor text
  • CHANGEFind the public reaction under MyPlayer → Creator → Your Timeline, and the organization decision in MyPlayer → Inbox

The league president

  • NEWNew Manager and MyPlayer careers have an Offseason Commissioner Rule Changes checkbox in New Career Settings → Basics → New Save Setup
  • CHANGEWhen enabled, the League President changes one transparent rule each offseason: inherited playoff/finals length, injury rate, prize reinvestment, or Manager trade activity
  • CHANGEEvery change is announced with old and new values. Per-tournament authored series settings remain protected

Tournaments, media identity & AI personalities

  • CHANGEWorld Editor tournaments are unified into one add/remove list with per-event BO3, BO5, BO7, or BO9 playoff and finals rules; legacy and default JSON continue to inherit safe defaults
  • CHANGEMyPlayer media identity now tracks respect, infamy, warmth, credibility, backed claims, failed claims, and Talk vs Tape history under MyPlayer → Brand
  • CHANGEVillains who back it up gain market value; toxic or all-talk players lose signing leverage. AI players have visible public personalities in every Player Dossier and AI organizations price that risk

Hardware readability

  • CHANGEChampionships now use a Lucide ring/gem icon and Major wins use a Lucide trophy on GOAT rankings and Player Dossier hardware panels
