Cost is what keeps me away from those types of games.&nbsp; I used to be in diamondmind league, but it gets too expensive for me.

The relevant section of the xml looks like<br/>

Good stuff!

Are you sure you want your players in AAA 1 year before they peak?&nbsp; I'd think you'd want them in the majors a decent amount of time BEFORE they hit their peak? Just because Andruw Jones didn't peak until about 27, that shouldn't mean you keep him in the minors until he's 26.&nbsp;

Nice to see I'm not the only one with wires everywhere.&nbsp; Even with a surge protector, I can't keep the things from getting all tangled and messy looking.

Sounds like a great idea to me.[:)]

you know i think Markus listens to his audience as well and i don't think he is driven by the almighty buck. i think the problem with OOTP is that it has taken a tack towards trying to be a world universe game and there are many supporters of ...

Because Shaun listens to his customer. And isn't driven by the almighty buck.

I would definitely 2nd, 3rd, and 4th this. &nbsp;

I think the suggestion of waiting until all free agents are signed to fill your roster is actually a very nice idea. You can probably still get some decent players from what I've seen but you won't get the top notch players.<br/>

Is Dusty Baker the manager of your team???&nbsp; That could be the problem. &nbsp;[:D]

How about team affinity with fictional leagues???&nbsp; Only tie it to regions with the players birthplace??&nbsp; I'd love to see it made harder to resign players or free agents.

<t> I have some I have converted over from ootp (some from Teflon Skies, and some from Bigcity), and pending their approval I was considering releasing them. One problem.....the pbp screen covers up home plate, and I'm no graphics guru, so I really don't know how to correct it. So.......should I ...

Something else I thought of, fictional managers that have different ideas on strategies.&nbsp; I'd love to have that, with their career tracked in the almanac.

I'd continue to argue that the value of pitching is too high. If you turn around and try to trade Schoendienst (who you value) you won't get any pitcher close to the quality of Sewell.

<t> A couple of things from me:<br/>
<br/>
1. A customizable in game scheduler.<br/>
2. Players develop/regress during the season.<br/>
3. Faster sim speed for auto play. <br/>
4. Better AI. Continue to tweak it, it has improved quite a bit since I started playing in '04.<br/>

Awesome.......in game stats, season stats, etc.&nbsp; Thanks!

Fictional is better for me, because it gets rid of preconceived notions of player X should be good because he hit 45 hr's in real life that year. But to each his own.

I'd be in.......let me know, I'll be out of town this weekend, so I couldn't start until next monday.&nbsp; I'll take the Twinkies since my Reds are spoken for.
