Now you can't decide: The starter should rest, when you lead and come back, when your team is behind.

At the moment it is random, too and you can't influence when a player is on the field and when he is substituted, except you say: Don't substitute all game long.

So why should there be a setting for the teamcaptain?

The influence of the teamcaptain should be marginal. So your team should not come apart, when your captain sit for some plays on the bench.

So when only marginal influence and erratic play time:

Why get this thing in and complicate things for "nothing"?

Either it has effect and every manager can make a strategic decision so bring it in

or it is cosmetic, then i say invest time in better GUI and mobile version of game (not app just a easy to browse mobile version)

@Turtle:

You could come up with a list of what functions are needed to use the game on a mobile phone. Gamecenter and Draft and DC and Tactics won't work on most devices I know due the heavy usage of Javascript libraries

I know this and this is not what i ask for - but let be said that even this is working partially on my!

But usage of JS make "surfing/navigating" nearly impossible to even get into the menus-points like you wrote :-)

I will check next week and when time i will make a short "flow" with menus-points and send you. I know it has to be simple and it will not give all funktionality and will have to be more for "enjoy surfng and checking" the team, maybe be able to easy place bid on player while on train or so

And btw Admin: great and easy and very functional solution limit Forum overview only to sector selected!!! Good thing this also on mobile to have lower load!!!

Not a big fan of having captains. If you use the real life argument that teams have captains and that those captains impact the game, I would counter with the impact is not necessarily a tangible thing and this is a computer program that needs tangibles. IF this were to exist here it would be FAR down the line.

If you go the captain route... I feel the only thing it should influence on the team is overall Team Chemistry. Other than that captains have marginal effects on the barring of a game. Besides almost always the captains the main captains are the starting MLB and the QB..
