I know what you're thinking! The Text+ discussion where people were complaining about hardcore mode was probably just as invalid. The shocker here is that I'd actually agree with you (it was bound to happen). My position was always that the difficulty switch be taken to a CP vote so we could determine what the actual feelings were. As one never occurred, you and I are arguing from a point of heavy bias.

Sorry bud but the top 5 teams on each side play their games, they do not sim.

Once the "bud" starts getting thrown around I know I've pissed you off and we're venturing into hostile territory, so I'll try to tone it back a bit.
I have no data to back up my belief, but I believe
at the 2 week mark there were several people who were heavy users of simulation in the top half of the league. If anybody can confirm or deny I'll happily change my stance.

I will state it again since it always seems to get missed when we have this discussion. My point is the same as always, IMO the move to normal will/has made the CPU an easy target for an extremely large number of players in this league. I am under the belief (you do not have to agree, its my opinion) this change is effecting people not wanting their CPUs played. I have made no mention of vs games.

Hot damn it's happened again! I totally agree with you. It sucks, I know. The CPU is much simpler and there is an advantage to playing your games. My argument is since one group has to suffer (and the way EA made the mode, they do) it might as well be those who let the cpu play their games. It was stated early on that this was to be a league that encouraged playing.
I'm happy to end this argument here. While we don't agree, I think we at least understand each others points. I believe this is something that does need to be further discussed at the end of the season and put to an actual vote so the majority are heard.
To address what the thread is actually about, I think the move to CPU control on the teams is a great idea. To clear up confusion, I'd recommend a PM sent by Jobo to each member of the league stating:
1. you have to switch your team to cpu enabled
2. If you don't have your cap or roster number in order your team will be DECIMATED when the cpu tries to "fix" it for you
3. Playing a game against somebody's cpu without their clear consent is a potential bootable offence.
