How do you want this to work guys..
1 game a day enables us to stay on pace with the real nba.
2 games a day keeps us semi close
3 games keeps us distant
4 or more means we can make up those rookies in a few years when they're drafted and have a fake rookie class until then. The fake rookies are in the association mode already so that could work.

I think that 3 or more games per sim is best. The reason why is b/c if we do 1 game a day, it'll just drag and drag and drag. I feel people will lose interest and I don't think it will be good for the survival of this league.
I just base this off of my experiences in the past. I don't know how dedicated these gm's are but there's always an excuse for people to become inactive. This would be a reason.
In my experiences, people like the sims to be steady paced, not too fast but not too slow to the point that it gets boring,

The leagues I have been in, 1 per day or 2 per every other day works just fine. People do not lose interest if the simming stays consistent. The best league I was ever in was Legends, and that was 2 days every other day. Consistently had mid-high 20's active every 24 hours.
D5 goes 1 sim every day and they are very active as well.
I'd rather have the realistic rookies also, so that's part of it.

The thing that makes this more appealing with more games in a day is that we can get more seasons done. Whenever we get to a point where real rookies come up. We can get them. That is fine. I would rather be ahead, than behind. I want this league to succeed and this is going to be a wide variety.
Especially since the game makes up rookies.

I did this for 3 yrs. and there were only 2 leagues out of the dozens and dozens that I was in that ever survived for longer than 6 months.

I think a few at a time would work great.. Because if you do one and it drags on and a team is doing horrible they simply wont want to be involved.

That is a great point. The ones who vote for 1 day per sim better be fucking active. The truth though is that I bet a lot of those people will become inactive.
If your team is sucking, u want the season to end faster so that you can try to rebuild or build through the draft or free agency. You won't give a fuck if your team is bad. Especially once school and college gets going.

Watch how activity starts to drop once school gets going. It's summer, of course people are gonna be active.
You have to keep people interested. If not done properly, people come and go just that quickly.
I have lots of experience with this so I'm not just talking out of my ass.

I want to have simming for everyday. Its more realistic by following that format. And if possible we can have more indepth analysis like the full stats and the lead changes etc will be a great addition on releasing game results.

Voted. I'm definitely for more than one game a day. If we sim one game at a time, it lessens the value of draft picks because of the time it takes in getting through an entire season. It will take nearly 3 months to play the regular seasons. Multiple weeks to get through the playoffs. The GM attrition rate will be high. If we sim one game a day, it will become a lg of your haves and have-nots. The league will most likely fold because of the GM turnover. There has got to be stability and league history for the weak teams in the league to have an opportunity to grow a team. I fear this league will have a short life.
Just my two cents.
