decreasing will lower the skills of players in general. Currently there are 100 players 90 or better

decreasing will lower the skills of players in general. Currently there are 100 players 90 or better Thats really not to bad once you divide by the number of teams. So I vote to keep the same for now.

100 players above 90 is way too many, are you kidding me? I don't want to play in a league where every team has a lineup of all-stars.
DECREASE!

Are we going to decrease this every year? We did it last year and I thought the main reason was because all players developed to close to their peaks. Well of the 100 90s in the league now, I'm sure most of them were already 90 last season when the sliders hadn't been decreased the first time, and it is really not all that high a number anyway. That comes to a little over 3 90 peak players per team. That does not equate to lineups full of all stars. I think because sliders were decreased last year at the % voted by the league we should hold off on adjusting sliders again the very next season.

I'm pretty sure the above 90 thing was only overall, not peak. I probably have 15-20 90 peak players on my team by myself, including three 100 peaks. Give me a fucking break.

All my prospects have risen and keep rising every year. Mike Hessman of the Braves was an 80 something peak prospect and is now a 76/98. Jack Cust went from 83/96 to 88/100 in one year. Adrian Beltre has rose to 91/100. Dan Haren from 73/88 to 88/95. Nice fucking rebuttal.

How is this going to affect teams that already have all 90s compared to teams that are trying to rebuild?

How is this going to affect teams that already have all 90s compared to teams that are trying to rebuild? That's a great point and I don't know the answer to that yet. I think the players that are already upper 90's will drop a little also but I'm not sure. I'll try to find answer.

I think because sliders were decreased last year at the % voted by the league we should hold off on adjusting sliders again the very next season. It affects the specs more than anything else. Have you not seen how everybody's specs are developing and not lowering will lead the league to be full of 90+ OVR's. And it's idiotic to want a league where there's a crap shoot every year.

Did your specs reach their peaks this year? I doubt it, and that's what I thought HoF sliders were meant to adjust, and that's what we all voted 10% on last year, but what do i know?
