2040 Season Thread-Feeling Crabby?

[Cnasty]

I can only hope

With that being said, expect a reign/niddler type rollover as it may be a few days to get things going for next season.

Stay tuned

Did you verify that in game? I did some simming on 17 and IFAs were at the same time as it had been previously. Maybe I missed a setting, let me know

Fair enough and I think you might be able to set the date for it in game settings but don't have the game to check

dusters, no offense at all, but the scout variation is so big that it makes it very difficult to just shoot out offers.
In my opinion, it has nothing to do with being chicken shit.

Some scouts will see a player as a 20/20 and others will see that same player as a 20/74.
So to just throw an offer out there is very tough.

Most of us have figured that it is easier to give a list of who we like on the other persons team.
So you have a block out there, I see a guy I like, I send you a PM stating, hey, I like player x, but I also like, y and z.
Take a look at my team and shoot me some names of who you like.

To fix the issue you are experiencing, the person should also tell you in that same message, players a,b and c are untouchable, unless it is 1 hell of a deal, etc.

Then the negotiations start as we now have lists of names that we both like. So now we discuss it and see what we can put together.

Also in Shane or whoever else's defense, just because you offer let's say two 70 rated players for one 60-65 rated player doesn't mean they absolutely have to deal that player. Maybe it's not the most business savvy move to do that in every scenario but some owners just may really like certain players and it may help their immersion level to have said player on their team. I also think some owners get too tied up in the overall and potential ratings by their scout and OSA and that may hinder talks

For me, wasn't an attack on Coug. Just pointing out how scouts may vary on just how valuable a player is.

Wrong Shane, I think duster is Shane too

[cougnix]

And to be honest I don't have time to do trades. I told Reign that when he offered a pretty good deal but I didn't want it.

... also Peay has another African and refuses to trade me him.

The NAACP threatened legal action against my organization if I traded him. I'm already on thin ice with them for some reason or other.

A+

best sim of the year for the Spitters winning 5 of 6!

only back 8 games of powerhouse PO with a 3 game series starting against them on Friday.

Super stud Catching prospect Jason Anderson wins rookie of the month, Kyle Bryant has 4 straight 3+ hit games and has his average up to .339 and John Tyler is a bonafide Ace!

with the 5th most wins in the AL since the all star break, there are some bright spots emerging in New England, first time i've said that in a couple seasons

I was referring to you since a couple people seemed irritated you wouldn't move a certain player even though they thought he was a average to good talent and offered enough. But like I said even if it isn't smart to do it everytime, there's no reason why someone has to feel obligated to trade someone just because people make offers

[Boston_Rob]

What the fuck is my manager doing...he is about to get fired. My starting rotation has not been right the last 5 sims. I am using 7 day lineups and exporting every day, anyone have any suggestions how to get my dumb ass digital manager to shape up?

[wdoupis]

Question for the vets, is it common or possible for a SP to get significant potential control boosts when already 24. Basically is Pat Hull going to walk 6 guys a game and infuriate me forever or does he still have a shot?

[Cnasty]

He's not going to improve dramatically.

Hence why I traded him as he is more suited to be a closer versus a reliable starter long term in my opinion.
