i really love the lottery you have to play at the start of every season "hey are you going to have to set 3 million dollars on fire or not" that's a good as hell part of this game

It's a great trade and you should do it because you rule as a person and we are best friends.

why are you talking about trade offers in here instead of responding to ones you get

you always could've, you know, kept your offer in so I couldn't do that. it's what Jeff did during the McKay Ray saga.

reverse engineering hasn't been a secret the entire time I've been playing this game so I'm not gonna apologize for adjusting my offer when I realized no one else was maxing him anymore

if i keep my offer in it means i can't chase anyone else like i had to do because i was going to lose on creek if you kept the max. and you could see what i was doing either way. i lose out in every situation

im a little more miffed because i whiffed on ramiro who i funneled a ton of that money to but at least that wasn't unscrupulous, i jsut lowballed him. it's not helping my mood tho

I'm not even /that/ mad at nasboat specifically for pulling it, it's well within his rights, i'm just saying that i'm tired of it happening and mad that the game makes it possible, which is why i want to make a league rule against it.

Ah I hadn't noticed that. Just assumed it was a max with nasboat swooping in with his PC/BU coaches

This /did/ happen which makes this situation all the more whatever the gently caress it is because i was leading on creek for a full day

I would be all for WIS actually fixing the broken mechanic so that that sort of info isn't readily available; I think if we made a league rule, though, there's really no way to enforce it? Seems like it would completely be on the honor system.

It would mostly be on the honor system but in the cases that really actually matter it would be Extremely Obvious that such a thing happened. it's way less visible when you're saving half a mil or whatever on an RP but who really cares about that

mike price, 99 health-haver, now with his second career derailing injury :toot:

I swear i'm /pretty sure/ that "minor" and "major" injuries are totally seperate categories and health doesn't affect the latter at all. at least from my experience the low health guys rack up 3-15 day injuries but it seems like catastrpohic ones happen to everyone at the same rate

fwiw i had a guy in another world who had outstanding everything else ratings and 0 ground ball rating and it went just about how you'd expect it to (oav under .200 but about half the hits he gave up were dingers) so, like, the rating definitely matters to some extent

edit: behold, mo miller
