- Makes the amateur draft, free agent signings and trades a lot more interesting. In our first year, we found that the amateur draft was very boring because it was usually a no brainer who should be picked.
- Forces people to participate more regularly. If you arent putting your scouts to work, you'll be at a disadvantage.

Possible Negatives:
- Lack of a queue could waste a lot of scouts time. If they finish their task in the middle of a sim, they'll be sitting idle until the end of the sim.
- Could lose owners who get overwhelmed.
- Like Sporr said, the difference in opinion between high rated scouts is a concern.
