and the seventh unwritten rule is don't hit every batter with a pitch in attempt to make the other guy quit first lmao

Rule number 8 don't use directional hitting just so you can foul off every pitch like a tool.  So obvious when you face directional hitting guys.

I will admit that I do watch my homers sometimes. I don't do it to shove it in the guys face either. I do it because I love to watch my accomplishment

I used Directional quite a bit last year because I absolutely hate Zone hitting.

1. I welcome Bunt Dancers as they are a tell-tale sign that you're opposing someone of inferior intellect and/or a (man)child. This motivation makes 100% of my victories that much sweeter.

2. I only run Homerun Replays if my opponent started the Bunt Dancing. OR if it's a friendly match against someone I know very well. OR if the opponent started the Homerun Replays first. In all 3 cases, this is ALLOWED!

3. Bad Fielding Animations? Never done them, nor been a victim of them... so they don't exist.

4. Mound Pacing can never take too long since the CPU WILL auto pitch if you throw over too many times. This is a bonus!

5. Pause Time too long? If my opponent can message me what's up in time. I usually pause as well so that their time doesn't get eaten up. But ONLY if they know how to type and message.

6. Nah... quitting cordially is for suckers. Rage quitting and blaming an electrical storm is where it's at. Save Face. Keep Your Pride. You'll sleep better at night.

Ya not feelings these rules...sounds like a quitters mentality. Also, take out duck hunt hitting and strike zone cam. This is baseball not a first person shooter.

Seems like a missed opportunity to say that the first rule about online play is you don't talk about online play, am I right?

So they improve the lighting and presentation finally and you want me to watch “Zero” of my home runs? Not even the No doubters that are absolutely crushed? It’s a no for me. I don’t watch any that weren’t crushed though. Hell I’ll even watch yours if they’re crushed.

Caulfield's #1 Written Rule for Online Play:
don't play online; people are the worst.
especially when they think they have anonymity
that's rule numero uno. see Gibbs for the other 90 written rules
