Re: What are you working on thread

So Im just thinking of this, do created players count towards missions for positions? Like will my diamond created catcher help me with the Bench stats?

Re: What are you working on thread

Knocked out my first event entry...got my 12 W's and the reward was a Josh Donaldson which is a pretty decent card. Finding it harder and harder to play this game lol. I really feel Madden will kill my drive completely.

We did get quite a bit of mileage out of this game though. I think at the very least, I'll keep going for WS so I can hoard more stubs and do you know what with them.

They said Ted Williams is still yet to be released, but who the heck is going to really care by the time he comes out? I feel like they've released the most of the best of the best already.

I'm actually kind of glad I've spent so much time team-building so the shine of playing RS hasn't worn off. Had two great, close wins this morning and found the games themselves way more enjoyable than most people seem to. I'm not burnt out on the game and I'm not getting Madden, so I figure I've got two solid months of RS before I call it quits for the year and jump into 2K. Seems like you've done pretty much everything there is to be done, so I don't blame you for being ready to move on!

Re: What are you working on thread

I'm so happy right now. I made an incredible 13-2 run in RS over the last three days and made it to 800! I didn't think I was good enough, but I can tell I'm getting better and better at online play and it's really rewarding (It also helps my team, and my bullpen in particular, are stacked). Had some incredibly fun and satisfying games. Most were close, and aside from the occasional fielding fiasco, they actually played pretty realistic. I won't be able to play anymore before midnight, but I'm excited to take a shot at 900 next month!

Your wish came true! Tiant is here.

Too bad his card might go for 500k or something, lol.

It really did! I bet he goes for more than that for quite awhile. His pitch mix, per 9s and rarity will make him the most expensive card on the market. I'm thinking of doing something terrible...selling the Fishman. I'm at 280K stubs and I'm hoping I'll get a pricey Diamond reward for making it to 800. Even then, I'd only be around 350-370K. That's not going to get the job done. I'm betting it will take at least 600K to get him in the next few weeks, and probably more. So basically, he's attainable for me but his price is the Fishman...and I'm not sure what I'm going to do

Well right now he's got a sell now for 750 and the next is 350. I could top 350 if I wanted to...not 750 lol.

Good luck to those getting random rewards tonight. May your diamond be in the Machado territory and not the Severino territory.

Right now I've got 120k. After I get rewards, that'll be 4k from Musial, 5k from WS, and who then the stubs from Dave Parker/Random 85-89 diamond. So that could be anywhere in the neighborhood of 165-200k or so, depending on my luck. And then I have Altuve and Scherzer to trade in whenever I want and I do want that Tiant lol. That's probably the only card I care to acquire, maybe Vida Blue but I used that card a bunch last year so meh

I bet we see some 1,000,000 bids to start with Tiant. He was just announced a few hours ago, so I'm sure some of the people with huge stub stacks will get home tonight and max bid. Best of luck in your Tiant quest!

Getting to that point I can barely play a few games without wanting to turn this game off. Sad

Damn Madden fever hitting me hard
