Permanent rolling lockout in 2013

[kilbluff1985]

lol yeah i liked finally getting to lockout now all weekend i'll be going over possible ways to improve my scores ::)

That is true Mr Craig, people are assuming that the super coach rules will cross over to DT. It hasn't been completely confirmed for DT so who knows.... :-\

[Footyrulz]

crazy changes!! this is what i think about them:

1. 4 emergencies

I like that because it was really stupid not being able to have one in every position

2. 30 trades

absolutely hate it, way too many, its gonna be so easy to get a full premium team! that means that stragegies must be used to use the extra premiums to your advantage and not just the same as everybody else

3. 8 mids, 6 backs+forwards

like this one too cause it is more realistic plus there are a much larger number of mids to choose from

4. rolling lockout

absolutely crazy! they clearly didnt think this one through! u can now use the captain loophole every week and also use it to your advantage in terms of who to put on the field. it also means u can acheive alot better than others by spending huge amounts of time on it, not only before the week, but during. addiction time!!!

Also applies to SC :)

In light of the horror desicion by VS (Virtual Sports) to have a rolling lockout come 2013, meaning the captain loophole can be used every week, and that a player is only locked in when their game starts, I have decided to set up a petition in order to stop this, this will seriously disadvantage tens of thousands of people who dont have the time to sit at their computer every weekend, including myself. This has made hundreds of coaches seriously consider quitting, and we dont want that!

can someone please explain the problem with the rule? im thinking it would be handy too combat the last minute changes which for me cost me my league grand final as in the later rounds of the year the late changes increase, surley you can get your team finalised on friday? and by the slight chance something happens get out your smartphone and make a change :S

A lot of people work on weekends, and not everyone has smartphones (surprise, surprise) The rollign lockout basically unevens the playing field.

You cannot enjoy weekends with a rolling lockout.  :'(

[leightonio]

yeah i suppose but surley im thinking vice captains and captains will be locked before friday cause otherwise that would be unfair, i dont have one myself just thought everyone else had one, i can see the negative but also the positives as i said by my own personal experience

I don't want to be up on a Saturday or Sunday morning having to worry about trades whilst battling off a hangover.

Done.
I bet AFL coaches would love to have a rolling lock out system on game day.
Could change there team list halfway through a game when things are going  " UP S**T CREEK."
BAN THE ROLLING LOCK OUT!  >:(

I'm one of those who don't really have much weekend access but rolling lockout is a good thing.

Things like players pulling their hammy on Saturday before their Sunday game...

Instead of 10,000 teams getting burned maybe only 1,000 teams burned... It's a good thing IMO.
