I have pushed an update that gives the injury probability rate control to the league admins. If you own a league and would like to decrease (or increase) the injury probability rate, you can now do that in your league editor. Changes will occur immediately during the next sim.

2 questions.

This can be adjusted at any point in the season and changed week to week ?

If so, some transparency should exist for all league owners to know the current injury rate value.

Can I just adjust the injury rate for specific teams too.

All jokes aside, this can only be a once a season change surely? Also if it can be changed week to week, it's open to abuse. All leagues or no leagues should get the treatment.

The switch should also be a one time only option. It shouldn't be a week by week or season by season tweak.

Just not fair on owners who have battled injuries all year and now other teams can get a 'free pass' for the remainder.

Personal view is this 'dumbs down' the game into levels: Beginner, easy, regular, hard, expert.

I play multiple teams, some are injury riddled, some aren't and that's the way it should be (in my opinion)

Yes it's a simulation, a sim on the NFL. That's a sim based on one league, who knows whether the NFL would be the norm or an outlier if there were 100 real life leagues?

I'll leave the one league I run as is. Overcoming adversity and still winning is way more satisfying in my opinion.

Now is the current injury level projection, the highest/hardest level or can I turn it up higher! (Just asking)

If any one knows of a league with bar set even higher for injuries I would love to give it a try.

well if now you could see the bar for the leagues for injuries when you click on the league then you could see that yourself .

As far as I know, only the league admin can see the injury rate bar under the edit league tab along with number of free agent weeks and preseason games.

That's my point about making the injury rate transparent to all league owners so a league admin cant make unknown adjustments mid season

I've brought this up in a more private setting than the open board but, yes a couple of safeguards need to be put into place.

1) Injury adjustment only prior to a season
2) Pop-up Notification on the Message Board like a consummated trade letting us know where the Injury Rate is set at/has been changed to.

If a league I'm in gets cute (lets adjust it all the way up!!!) in a spiteful move on their behalf I'll immediately leave it.

I wanted to see a small downtic from the small uptic in injuries over all MFN, not an ability to
change injuries from league to league, if it can't be done leave it be! I don't want the need to remember from league to league what an injury rate could be.
