Today we roll out a brand new feature. Jim Gindin, the sole developer of the Front Office Football line of text-based simulations, has agreed to give us more insight into the development process and design decisions of games. Each week, he will introduce a specific item relevant to developing football simulations. We will have a panel consisting of Operation Sports staff members answering these questions as they would like to see the item reflected in text-based simulations. The idea is also to create a living document, useful for Jim's own future reference. In his own words:

Quote:
"I hope this becomes a regular and popular feature at the new forum. It will help me flesh out new ideas I have with Front Office Football. And I'm encouraged that it will give all of you some insight into simulation development and a chance to participate more formally in the process."

Head here to check it out.

In the days prior to my joining the staff at OS, I started working on a preview of the options available for fictional league play in OOTP9 over at FOFC. We've added a few of the screen shots from that here at the main site. To view the full fictional league preview, head over to this thread at FOFC. (There's one thread to read, and another in which to discuss.) A larger preview of the full OOTP9 game is coming soon here at the OS main site, fyi. The game is scheduled to be released on June 18th.
