That's probably the route I'll have to take if I want to amass history.

I'm a macro guy, I want to watch the rise and fall of my club and the league over the years. I'll give it a go over the weekend on a new save and see how I like it!

I was always one of the fast sim, get though as many seasons as possible types as well. Until this year. I've found the 3D stuff to be pretty satisfying and engrossing. I also like the idea of being manager/GM so I can collect players and then use them how I want. It does take a lot longer to advance through seasons this way, but I find more immersion in my team and players.

I'm probably in the minority, but I do the GM role only and I watch every game pitch by pitch. I have 3 monitors, so the game is on one and I am doing work or other things on the other two screens. It takes longer, but it is what keeps me most immersed.

Just messing around with game for first time this morning. The Virtual GM don't play around on trades! They'll say NO quick to a trade I think is fair.

Yep, they can be rough.

Sometimes, though, you can get more than you'd think. Just depends a lot on the situation, circumstances, and how the players in question are viewed.

Absolutely enjoying this game, which I probably should have bought for the last decade. Described it to a friend as Baseball Mogul on Barry Bonds' performance enhancers.

My only wish is that Out of the Park Developments can one day (soon) produce an NBA equivalent to this!

So with it being 19.99 I bit the bullet and bought it. Decided to monkey around with expansion, and sadly it seems that my a level teams are both A- and in the same league, and division, any way to fix this or should I just... try again?

I'm in the Challenge mode if that lessens my options.

I am playing GM only, but Kurt Suzuki emailed me saying he expects to start more. Is there anything I can do via communication with Snitker to talk about that? Or is it just an email of him in the early stages of displaying a little dissatisfaction?
