The 20 year olds in the academy, can you give them a contract the 1st day of the new season or do you have to do that before last day of current?


From the Manual in the Youth Academy section.
If you don't sell, fire or move a 20 year old who is in your Youth Academy, he will become a Free Agent at the season rollover. In Contract mode you are not able to negotiate contracts with Youth, you have to move them to your team first by using the "Senior tickets".

So before the last day, use the "senior tickets" and move him & then negociate his contract.

This is from my friendly with Nanaimo Bluebacks. Is this correct? Seems like a mistake... how can we shoot from 42 our side, then they do the same, 42 their side. We do the same, they do the same??

No. It's not correct.
Every missed FG backs you up by 7 yards. And perhaps you both have FG <50 yards for the try.
But the stat is not ok.
If you add 42+10+7. It's a 59 yards try, and you both had 60+.
And when you tried your first FG you were on his 46 yard line.

The yards are correct. There was also a 12 yard pass, so the first attempt wasn't from own 42, but rather from opp 46.

46 +7 for snap +10 for end zone = 63 yard attempt
Ball goes -7 yards so = other 47 +7+10= 64 yard attempt.
Rinse and repeat.

0:44 1 and 10 to go on own 42... 12 yards, New first down
0:25 (K) 63 yard field goal missed
0:19 (K) 64 yard field goal missed
0:13 (K) 63 yard field goal missed
0:07 (K) 64 yard field goal missed
0:01 (K) 63 yard field goal missed

Yes. But why does it say 42?
COR 2 COR-42 0:19 Turnover
It should be opp 46, no?

It doesn't say 42. It says 42 before the completion, not after. This isn't the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy where it's always 42.

0:44 1 and 10 to go on own 42, Vernon Reece (OC) snaps the ball to Buster Hansen (QB), Buster Hansen (QB) selected Yindee Prachuab (TE/R) as target, the receiver of this inner right pass catches the ball, tackled by Philip Engel (CB/L), forward progress: 12 yards, New first down (Singleback Big vs. 3-4-4) more
0:25 Vernon Deal (K) kicks the ball for the field goal, 63 yard field goal missed

Yes, you are right, the "drive ended chart" is good only for the first FG missed, but for the rest?
If Vancouver missed FG on opp 46, the opponent should have taken over on Vancouver's 47, not his own 42.
Something is strange in this final drives or am i missing something.

It's correct. A 63 yard miss by Vancouver puts the ball on the on the 47 which allows for a 64 yard fg. A second miss allows another 63 yard attempt and so on until time expires. A kick from the 42 would be a 59 yard fg attempt.

I have a question about the Game Settings regarding substitutions:

The question "How do you want to handle substitutions?" at third place of the "Settings"-Overview gives me the choices "Based on Fitness Level/Energy only", "Don't substitute until <>" and "Based on Playbook rules".

While I understand the first two, option 3 is not quite clear. How do I dictate with the Playbook which player personell is on the field?

This option is not active, therefore you cannot chose it.
