Is it okay to start over??

[Pigpen44]

I am in the fifth season of a carryover franchise. Playing onlegend default. Absolutely silly great season. 127-35 with the cardinals. Traded for Schwarber and him, Grichuk and Carpenter are 3 of the best 4 hitters in the league with Bryant of the Cubs the other.
Down to the Dodgers 2 games to one. Great back and forth game 4 tied 8-8 in the top of the ninth. Dodger are loaded with Goldschmidt and Arenado.
Lead off the 9th with a single by Wong then Carpenter singles to right center but Wong stays at first. Instead of first and and 3rd with nobody out it’s a runner on first with one out. I’ve never reset anything on my franchise but I kind of think since it’s still tied maybe it isn’t cheating. Unless Wong breaks a leg there is no way he’s not on 3rd with no out. Rant over
Thought?

Re: Is it okay to start over??

there are tons of good reasons for starting over and you're example is just as good as any.

incidentally, the Top 2 Reasons To Start Over in franchise:
1) you started a carry-over franchise with Houston somewhere between Show 14 & Show 17.
or
2) you got shafted by Houston in the postseason at some point in the last 3-4 years.

BTW eventually I'll grow tired of hating the Astr*'s and back to hating the Red Sox and Yankees.

but today isn't that day lol

Lol
I actually lost to Houston in the World Series a few years back.
I did reset the game. Won 2-1 this time. Hated to but I didn’t want to take the chance of being down 3-1 with all this time invested and having that glitch.

LOL One of the "backgrounds" I use in my mind for my Fictional Franchise is that everyone got fired for cheating and the entire league just wanted to start over. Now if we could just edit Managers.

An underrated feature of games is we can switch teams. As great as The Show is, there are still moments of video game silliness. I have switched teams without any guilty conscience to “restore” balance.

This must be how Thanos felt.

You need to institute self imposed trade restrictions. I use manage mode and I struggle to make the playoffs most of the time.

I thought about that after I had reset. I wish I’d thought about it sooner.

what I'd like to see the Studio do is set it up in game where you can restart the previous inning. maybe with the ps5 that will be something easier to implement

that, and there isn't anything in the OP that suggests he doesn't already have a trade restriction system in place

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the Houston glitch, and how serious a threat is it to a successful franchise?

lol it isn't a ''glitch'' as much as a ''cheat''

I had to do this pretty often last year because of the suspect outfield defense at launch. I switched to auto fielding and never looked back after that.

I hear that. Most of my issues are with fielding and base running.
