THIS IS AWESOME! There is no way I can ever thank you enough for posting this and this is exactly what I needed to see (visual) to get my head around all these stats.

Using this I now feel i can make an informed decision.

You rock!

Thanks for posting all those graphs, made things a lot easier.

Clearly the SIM is not a fan favorite of the Wild.

Yup but that also means it isn't some random thing. It is a clear problem with something I've done with the current construction of the team. Falls to me to figure what that is and how to fix it. But it means it is solvable.

We have about half of the league responding so far to the survey. Remember this is mandatory as it represents a big decisions for the league.

Jackets are in the same boat as the Wild pretty much but we are pretty sure we know what the issues are and have already used these results to add peices we feel will get us back in the playoffs.

Also where the Jackets finished in the tests is pretty much bang on where we thought we would be considering the roster we finished the season with and what OV's the test was based on.

I'll be honest, I really cound.t decide at what angle to vate my opinion from. I tried to look at it two way...

1) have the best team have the chance to have the best records

2) Or have the bottom of the league unleash havoc and have better chance of upsets

For Whatever reason my survey will not let me make any changes to the order. I tried it on both IE and Chrome and on two different computers.

My vote will come in when I get home from vacation

[Daradon]

Made my submission.

To be honest, there doesn't seem like there is much variety in the results (which could be a good thing) we're just seeing standard deviation. I'm ok with whatever scenario is picked really.

[JiriHrdina]

Still missing some responses - I'll extend the deadline to Sunday night and post results Monday morning. It will reflect poorly on any GM who doesn't do this and didn't let us know.

[I wanna be like Miikka]

I'll do my submission later today, sorry for the delay.

Edit - done

Here is how I came to my selection:
I went through all the teams and determined who, in my opinion, are the playoff teams (top 8) for each conference. From there, I went through each scenario and tallied how many of my playoff teams made the playoffs in each of the scenario's simmed seasons.
In the end, there was one scenario that had my selected playoff teams make the playoffs just over 75% of the time. The other 4 scenario's didn't even come close to that percentage.

I found it quite difficult to choose. In the end I tried to choose the scenarios that I think gave fairly consistent results. There was a lot of variety of course, so I'm really interested in seeing what the tests were.

[MJK]

is it just me or were the average sim results pretty much bang on to who things should go? The problem is out of 10 there are 2-3 years where things are completely strange but for the most part things are good IMO.

back in the swing of things... Voted.
