Day for games Here, you choose the day when the XFL games are played You can select any one of the seven days of the week. The day of the week effects the number of people who will watch the games on television.
Average Player Salary This variable allows you to set the average salary for each player. The standard for the XFL was $50,000, but you can adjust the salary to as high as $1.5 million. The higher salary permits you to attract better players from the NFL, leading to better TV ratings.
Average Ticket Price The average ticket price can be increased to as much as $80. But be careful because too great a ticket price could keep patrons away from the games.
Marketing Expense Per Team In the XFL system, the marketing costs were paid for by the league itself, not each team individually. Thus, as you increase the marketing expense, its multiplied by the number of teams in the league. A higher marketing expenditure draws more fans to games.
Team Location Strategy In reality, the XFL attempted to locate teams in cities that had NFL clubs playing in their stadiums, with the exception of Las Vegas. This variable permits you to try different location strategies. From a combination of teams located in NFL cities, coupled with warm weather locations, to pure "sunbelt" locations. The ultimate impact is on attendance. It's better with warmer climates.
Number of Teams This is the variable you use to add or subtract teams in the XFL. You may consider this as a cost-cutting measure.
Number of XFL Employees Another cost cutting measure is a change in the number of XFL employees. You can alter than here.
Reserve Drawn to Counter Negative NOI With this, you can transfer money to cover a loss in the operating budget. But be careful not to spend down all of your reserve.
