One thing I have noticed is that if you just click "meet demand" it doesn't recognize it as an offer. You can click that, go into pending offers, and it won't show up. But then you can't offer them another contract because it says you've already submitted an offer. I thought I had read that they had fixed that issue with the last patch, but I tried it on a cheap player this time around, and the same problem still exists. So I've learned to click "submit offer" instead of "meet demand", or just change the offer by $1 and you're good to go.
This was a bug in a recent version. Make sure you're up to date on OOTP versions.
I am, that's when I read about the fix

It's still happening to you? If so that's something for sure that should be posted in the bugs forum on OOTP forums.

Maybe I didn't download the new patch correctly?? That could be a good possibility.

In OOTP go to File > Help > About OOTP. You should be on Version 22.11 Build 82.
If it's a different build then I would suggest patching. It's pretty straightforward to patch.
Make sure you close OOTP!! Download your installer (PC or Mac) and then just install that. If you have any issues hit me up on Slack.

Done. Yeah I think I still had OOTP open and that's probably the issue. Good thing was that I had the patch saved in my downloads so I just had to install it.

File is up. Reports and S+ to follow.

season ticket sales are overrated!
Last year I sold a bunch at $15 a piece, had more fans show up and had a higher ticket price for the whole year and still lost revenue. I'm trying something different this year, going with higher season ticket prices and sticking with my normal sales during the season.......nothing can go wrong right?!?

That's what I'm doing to this year. Like 10% higher for season tickets and then lower during the season. Seems kinda backwards now that I type it out but oh well too late.
