Always Learning New Things...

Ksyrup · 12-22-2006, 08:01 AM

I feel stupid for admitting this, since it's probably been in the game forever, but I just realized that by hitting the contract view during free agency, you get a nice way to sort through what each guy is asking for. I never knew that.

I always go guy-by-guy and never thought to use that screen for that purpose. I was checking my own guys' status and switched to free agents, and there it was.

I wonder what else I'll discover about this game that I never knew...

Not sure I knew that either.

It's especially useful during stage 1 because you can only renegotiate with your own players and can't see each FA's request if you try to "view contract" on their player cards, yet the years and salary requests still show up on the contract view screen.

Well I'll be damned...

Glad to see I'm not the only one!

Wow definitely in the learn something new category.

Makes it a lot easier to see who might be in my price range when I decide who to resign and who to let go, as well as who to scout in the draft.

Nice find.

I can just imagine upon completing the secret code my monitor filling up with green characters and a little white bunny...
