This draft scouting thing is really some BS. I've requested scouting reports every day since the draft was released. As of today I have 0 scouted Very High and tons of Average. You'd think the accuracy would stick around a tad longer than a couple weeks.

I cannot stand it at all! That and consistently having to scout your own guys is just dumb.
Anyone notice the lack of IFA's our scouts are finding due to them being so damn busy scouting your own team and the draft class?

does not matter how much is international. I believe the setting is 7 IFA discoveries per team. Quality of discoveries are based on budget, supposedly.

I've become convinced that you can't get Very High on an amateur player. I mean I'm sure you can with the right scout, I just don't have that type of scout in any of my scouting leagues. I aim for as many High's as possible personally

It is set to find 8 per year and you are still getting 8 a year. Think of your scouts traveling ability like Game of Thrones season 8, it just works out.

I have very high on at least 30 guys or so. I set filters and just scout those filters every day so basically scouting the same 200 dudes each day. I also put 50% of my scouts budget in to Amateur scouting.
I don't know the answers to some of the mysteries but it definitely is possible to get to very high.

I posted 3 or so days ago that putting 12 mil into scouting my entire rookie draft had VH or H scouting accuracy but I was told that’s wrong. Oh well.

By enough = not getting any this year then yes
checked my IC and this is what I found:
I am guessing we are not getting the emails then with all the extra scouting we have to do. I just went thru all my IC guys and saw I got one this year on 3/25/73
I only saw 3 or 4 guys from 2072 in my IC, so who knows what is going on.

Happy to see Youngstown's May freefall continues... nearly last in every offensive category that matters.
So much for being hopeful.

If my team has made 50 errors (just throwing a number out there) …..my pitchers have 25 of them
If pitchers make errors the runs should be earned, not unearned
