Renewals as usual will decide over the team to start with into the transfer season. No changes in comparison to last year, so older managers know what to expect, for newer managers it`s something new to learn.
The Renewals DB v0.5 can be downloaded here: https://pcmdaily....ls_v05.xls
Post Renewals DB v2: https://pcmdaily....als_v2.xls
Already done:
- 2020 Team Names and Divisions
- Most decreases and stat gains
- New OVL Stat! So please have a look at the differences. Not only the total on one rider but the look of the full picture.
- Age +1
Not yet done:
- Stat Gains of Puma, Air France, Carrefour
- Three teams have a "???" for their division, likely the only teams that are yet have a questionmark over the final result. Will come asap before renewals for those start.
- FAs often have no OVL, this will come later
- just like new additions
- New Rider Additions
Not in the DB yet any kind of working macros and also no NCs yet.
If you think there is a mistake with one of your riders or someone elses regarding age, stat increase/decrease, OVL just give me a PM. Obviously this also goes in case a rider got too much increase or no decrease, please be fair and mention it as it might be noticed at some point anyway.
General Renewals Information
For each of your riders you will receive a wage request, and you have three opportunities to offer them a wage which they are happy with. Riders can usually be negotiated with on their requested wage, although the difference between their minimum acceptable wage and their request does vary quite a lot from rider to rider.
As soon as you offer a rider an amount they are happy with, they will accept - this is committed to being their wage for the 2020 season, you cannot attempt to offer them a lower wage once they have accepted. There are 3 Rounds for renewals, and if a rider has not accepted your offers after 3 rounds then he will became a free agent.
If you want to release a rider, give them an offer of 0 in the first round.
The minimum wage is 50,000. If you are initially unsure whethere you want to release or renew a rider, you should offer them a value above 0 and less than 50,000 in the first round to keep your options open for the following round.
If a rider feels your initial offer is too low, they will be insulted by your offer and will no longer be willing to negotiate. There are two options at this stage: either pay them exactly what they have requested, or release them to the free agency.
It is possible to go over your salary cap at the end of Renewals, but doing so will lead to a fine of double that amount. For example, if you go over your salary cap by 100k then you will receive a fine of 200k.
There is no limit on the amount of riders you renew - it does not have to meet the same minimum/maximum requirements that are needed for the end of the Transfer season itself.
Getting started
If you want to wait with renewals, until you have received your team budget from deciding renewals, then this is fine. Also, if you want to see the full calendar, then waiting is fine. That said, this might still take some time and the changes won`t be huge in comparison to 2019.
But we do want to get started on the renewals for as many teams as possible. So if the information in this thread is enough for you, and you are happy to do renewals without a budget or full calendar knowledge, please post in this thread to request your Round 1 file to your dropbox folder, which you then should check within the next hours.
And if you've not done so already, please clean up your Dropbox folder.
Whenever you have finished a round of renewals, upload the file to Dropbox again, only changing the R1 to R2 or R2 to R3 or R3 to DONE and send a PM to me. Please don`t change the name of the file different to this as it makes it harder for me.
Reminder
Renewals MUSTN`T be discussed anywhere, until after all teams has finished. We will let you know when it is okay to post information in Team HQs or elsewhere, about who you have renewed, what their new wage is or their original request, even if you are shocked, and who you haven't renewed.

To inform you, I will try to send out first rounds later today. But due to being busy at work myself and not always having access to the files different as previous year, I can`t guarantee the fastest responses.
Just keep checking your dropbox if you have posted here from time to time. No need to ask here in case you are waiting as I will keep my list updates with sheets having sent out etc. |

Usually I get started right away, but due to my relegation situation and the impact these renewals will likely have on not only wage cap but budget this year, I think I will play it safe and wait until I have my budget to begin.
Of course, I might get the itch and not be able to wait after a few hours with the DB.

Quick question, as from what I remember we didn't change the names of the files last year so I'm a bit confused. Sorry if it's a stupid question.
After putting in the offers for R1, I rename the file to R2? If so, do I rename the existing file or leave it as it is and add a new one with the offers named R2.

I also don't remember changing filenames. I think you already get the files named correctly, but then when you send your PM that you are done, you specify which round you have finished.
Example of PM titles: PCT Renewals R1 Teamname, PCT Renewals R2 Teamname, PCT Renewals R2 Teamname
