Well the site is back up and the economic updates are done. Still waiting on the youth pulls though.

I'm tired of detailing how pathetic every one of my youth pulls has been. My excellent YS is not excellent. My solid YS was not solid. Sum total, my YS has cost me only about $12k. It is closer to $262k though, because I trained one of my pulls. Gosh, at least I have the little label of "excellnt" on my screen though. That has to be worth $262k, right?

our 15th pull at solid, not the saviour of all our money prblems, but not a bad one either, our first 17yo passable in anything...
Code:
Since I don't train defense and I have plenty of passable defender with way more experience than this kid, he'll hit the market sometimes today... FM

As long as his experience stays disastrous for a while, we are ok. I have a few other solid leaders that will be popping ahead of him, and stay ahead of him as far as experience is concerned. So he will not be the leader on the field.
If it becomes a bit of a problem, then I will sell him, and have the newbies purchase him

I know that, but for now, unless you have a popular or sympathetic guy with a better solid leadership (this is impossible to determine, but like any other skill in HT, there are high and low solid leaderships), well this dude will be a pretty good drain to your team spirit. He doesn't have to even play to be the perfect anticlown... FM

dola, also my first point was more about him becoming a coach. I really wouldn't want a nasty fellow with solid leadership as the coach of my squad... Teams spirit drain again...

Well I finally got to do my pull, shame I waited all that time for a weak keeper with minimal other attributes. Put him on the transfer market at 1.5k, see if I can get a newb to bite...

The HT devs have confirmed that coach agreability has no impact on anything, team spirit or otherwise. You are right about the nasty-solid problem as a player though. Easy way to tell if this guy became your anti-clown is if your TS keeps going down the toilet even if you win a lot and PIC. Edit: Looked at the player, and what's the point though? Inad scoring and wretched passing isn't so hot. You can buy someone better for cheap on the open market. Last edited by Desnudo : 08-10-2003 at 10:05 AM. |

I didn't know about the coach agreeability not having any effect on a team spirit. I was sure it had a little bit of an effect. Where did you read about it. I'm curious About the said player, that was one of my point, that he was a very possible team spirit drain as a player, even if you are a forward trainer and you keep him around a few weeks to try and boost his ratings a little to sell him back, you very well might pay with a TS in the tank...

No, that guy is a very good winger trainee, and probably a 2.5* offensive winger. Very nice pull. Passing definately affects wingers.

well according to HAM it says his transfer market value is 45k and that seems a bit high, so i listed him for 15k to see if i can generate some kind of bidding war

Assuming that the devs are all in Sweden, I'd guess that the game engine crapped out during what was for them the middle of the night. So, if I had to guess, I'd say nothing happened 'til 8:30 HT time because the devs were all asleep. |

I'm guessing they substracted the incomes from last week to get it back to 0 after the first update. Then for some reason there was another update that subtracted these values again to make them negative.
