If a user doesn't feel their skill matches their opponent, then they have to put faith in their coaching/AI to challenge the opponent if they want to play the game. Again, players shouldn't be held back from playing the games if they want too.

This game mode shouldn't alienate the sim crowd if you're not going to play the games anyway. You still carrying our your tasks as normal. But it shouldn't penalize or restrict the playing crowd. Having users dictate when a player can or cannot play would be extremely annoying and likely turn them off from the league.
This is big for me. If I miss the playoffs by a single game I want to know it was my fault and not because the cpu screwed up on my behalf.

I'm curious to how this will work. If Jobo and I have a game scheduled and he says that he's just too busy to play at any point in the next couple days what is the exact process for moving forward? If we agree that I'll play the computer controlling his team, does he need to be active in the process? Ideally he could just message me and tell me to have at it and I could initiate everything on my end. It would concern me if he needs to actively go into the game and confirm that the cpu is controlling his team.
