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 can be downloaded here: https://pcmdaily....ewals.xlsm
It has all the stat gains, decreases, age +1, 2021 teams etc.
Still missing:
- Some team names might still change
- Additional Information such as training eligible/Avenir, NCs/WCs
- New Rider Additions
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 2021 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.
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 get within the next 2-3 days.
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. |

RE: stat gains for talents from disbanding teams:
Cees Bol got a stat upgrade alongside his XP level increase, while all the other talents did not and are heavily stunted in their progression.
Is that intentional or a work in progress, and if it is the latter, what general direction can we expect things to go?
Are we leaning towards just treating 2020 as a lost year for the affected talents who can still end up at the same level as before, just a season later? Or will they effectively lose an entire level of stat gains and lose their opportunity at becoming leaders.

"Ready" might not be the term I would use, but as I'm not waiting for anything else to come, we'll go with it.

Still trying to digest some (unexpectedly) nasty OVL increases, but let's face those greedy wage demands. Ready for Round 1!
