When stang wants to relinquish the Braves, I'd consider taking them. ;)
I can say the admins have discussed this enough that I can ensure you people will not be able to make bad decisions and be allowed to jump ship to a better situation. It will be a case-by-case decision whether the GM is eligible to move or not.
I will also mention that I am open to creative ideas to making drastic changes to your park effects when building a new stadium (possibly even make changes to your current stadium). The park effects you currently have take whatever wind patterns, wall heights, odd dimensions there may be. This is not calculated by me, but what I infer FanGraphs (which is where the baseline of the park effects came from) has done to create their park effects.
So, if you can articulate changes to your stadium that could alter the park effects I would consider making changes other than what's laid out in the stadium upgrades guidelines. Things like building a stadium facing a different direction than it current does, lowering wall heights from 10 to 7 feet, or changing a stadium like SFG's AT&T Park dimensions to something more normal like ATL's Turner Field dimensions could all see drastic changes to the park effects. It wouldn't just stop there either. As long as your idea to alter your park effects make sense, I'm willing to work with you.
