League, Player & Game Settings
Every general, development-limit, visibility, advance, pick’em, and spread setting.
League Settings
Open Administration → Settings.
Invite URL
Share this NeonSportz link when a user should request league membership. It is not a Discord server invite.
Name
Letters, numbers, and spaces; unique on NeonSportz. Changing it changes display text.
Abbreviation
Up to five uppercase letters/numbers; unique. It is used in URLs, commands, and import identity. Change it only when you can update every saved link/export configuration.
Console
Must match the Madden franchise/import context.
Madden Difficulty
Public league information used for presentation/recruitment context.
Anonymous GOTW Votes
Yes hides voter identity from non-admin viewers. No exposes it.
Allow Multiple GOTW Votes
Yes lets a member vote for multiple games in one week. No limits them to one.
Allow Members to Customize Their Team Page
Yes lets the assigned owner edit that team’s images, colors, about content, and section images. No restricts team customization to league admins.
Advance Time
Set date and time for the next league advance. Use the date/time picker, save, and verify the countdown. Clear it when unknown.
Season, Stage, and Week
Read-only imported context. Refresh it with League Info rather than editing.
Expiration
Shows the Madden service year/expiration context. Use renewal to extend the existing service.
Player Settings
Open Administration → Player Settings.
Offense Dev Limit (SS/XF)
Maximum allowed offensive Superstar/X-Factor players. Leave blank to disable.
Defense Dev Limit (SS/XF)
Maximum allowed defensive Superstar/X-Factor players. Leave blank to disable.
Rookie Development Trait
Set Hidden to display rookie Superstar/X-Factor development as Hidden; set Shown to expose it.
After editing, select Save. Configure Dev Limits Channel to receive detected overage alerts after roster imports.
Game Settings
Open Administration → Game Settings.
Send AI content now
Enable Auto-Generate Game Previews, Auto-Generate Game Recaps, or Auto-Generate Power Rankings Analysis, then select Generate & send now beside that setting. You do not need to wait for an advance.
The action uses the league’s current season, stage, and week. Previews go to unplayed games’ channels or threads; recaps go to finished games’ channels or threads; rankings analysis goes to the configured Power Rankings Channel. Import game stats first for accurate recaps, and import rankings before generating analysis. Games without a channel or thread are skipped.
Missing text is generated and posted in the background. Existing text is sent again without being rewritten, including commissioner edits. Only users with Edit League permission can use these actions. Repeat requests for the same feature have a one-minute cooldown; a queued confirmation means processing has started, not that Discord delivery has finished.
Display Point Spread
Yes displays stored spreads; No hides them.
Is Pickem Locked
Yes prevents current-week winner voting; No allows it.
Team Settings
Open Administration → Team Settings to review supported imported team City and Name values. Prefer correcting Madden/source data when a later import would overwrite the change.
