Sim schedule

There have been a few requests to distribute the sims to run at other times than the 5-hour block currently allotted to the simming. Also, the number of simultaneous sims is beginning to cause the sims to take longer. For both of these reasons, I am going to distribute the sims over a 24 hour period instead of just the nightly sims, so you will begin to see the sim schedule float a bit more.

The movement will not be more than an hour per day, so it will take a while to migrate all the schedules to their final resting place, and as new leagues are created the schedules will continue to float to remain distributed evenly. Also you will continue to have a day off after the end of the draft. Hopefully this will help the sims run faster in the long run and also give you more points throughout the day that you can get your recent games. Of course, unless the sim gets moved to the time that you would normally work on it, you should be able to continue to play the game as you always have as there is no advantage to performing tasks with your team closer to the sim time vs. further from it.

I am aware that this is a temporary fix as the game continues to grow, so know that I do have strategies lined up to solve this issue long-term. I'm very close to releasing a new UI that includes a mobile-friendly interface as well as several smaller updates that have been requested, and once that's done I will spend time working on optimizing the game engine so the game sims don't take so long.

Thanks for your patience and continued feedback!
