Hopefully, you'll apply some of that money toward a typing skills class.

A lot of you won't be able to understand it, but it is useful for everybody else.

WOW! So, if WifS tweaks the engine at any point in the future, do you think anyone adversely affected should ask for a rebate?

That should be fun for the whole family.

I will defer any future complaints about the update until my current season in Kaline (league just started, not even to Free agent phase) is about 1/3 of the way over.

Happy New Year, guys. It's nice to see you're having so much fun arguing over fractions of seasons and handfuls of players. Don't take yourselves too seriously, though, on those shreds of info. Have fun, though ... why not?

You have to be effing kidding me.

You built a one-dimensional team, and now you want MONEY because your team isn't more well-rounded?

What a joke.




You need to learn a thing or two about reading comprehension. Seriously. Being one dimensional or well rounded has nothing to do with it. I I built a team that was quite competitive under the rules at the time and then WIS changed the rules in such a drastic way that my team most likely wont be nearly as good or as valuable because of the rules change. How is that a joke? They pulled the rug out from under me. I was successfull in the old ratings system. They made the changes not me.
What am I missing?

You built a team around what they believed was a flaw in the engine.

They changed the engine to fix said flaw.

Now you want money???

Be serious.

If anything, your team probably contributed to the changes, since you were overloading with power bats, ruining the macro-scale stats that they use to check whether things are "performing as expected".

Who's fault is that? How would I know there was a flaw in the engine? How am I supposed to know what they expect the stats to be? Am I supposed to know that this was going to happen 3 seasons ago? I played by the rules that were in place. Im not even against this change I just think if they are going to do something this drastic they should break it up into pieces so it doesnt have such a large impact immediately. Why couldnt they implement it in segments? Back to my original point that you dont seem to understand....my issue with this is that it is more damaging to people with offensive teams. I will have to adjust more than a team that chose to be pitching heavy. Ive wasted 3 or 4 years planning for a strategy that is suddenly less likely to be successfull. Also dont want you all to think im running a lineup of Dave Kingmans b/c im not, go look for yourself but most of my power hitters have good splits, I dont think I even have a starter of the 30-90-40-40-80 mold some of you are speaking of.
I still haven't seen anything where you explain WHY you should be entitled to "financial compensation" from WIS.

Are you going to hold your breath until you get credits for your troubles?




I never said I was entitled to it. I will ask for it and make my decisions from there. As an offensive powerhouse team I feel like my team has lost more than other teams in my league, primarily the pitching oriented teams.
Okay, fine.... you said:

I say: Don't waste CS's time. Just take your ball and go home right now. Nobody cares.

If there's anything I can't stand, it's a whiny ***** looking for a hand out.

Im sorry do I not have the right to express my opinion here? If there's anything I cant stand, it's a jackass who insists that I am wrong but instead of offering anything of substance to enlighten me to his version of the truth he just calls me a whiny *****. Man that was scary to read, I hope I dont run into you on the streets. lmao

So what is your deal? Are you saying that offensive teams arent impacted more than other teams or they are impacted more and it just doesnt matter?

You're not expressing an opinion, you're whining to try and get a handout from WIS.

I'm saying either take your ball and go home, or STFU about it.

There's nothing about "right and wrong" here.

Im expressing the opinion that the update screws certain teams, if you can't handle that then maybe you are the one who should STFU. Seriously you have done nothing more than troll this thread and call me names. Im not saying I am right. Im not saying you are wrong. But if you have nothing more than harrassment to bring to the conversation all you are really doing is whining about me whining. GFY.
1/4/2010 4:35 PM
Well, to be fair, you were/are doing some first class whining.
1/4/2010 4:39 PM
I'm going to start prefacing all my future whining posts with "Unless I get some sort of credit or financial compensation . . . ".

Maybe I'll put that in my future tickets to CS as well.

Yeah. Sounds like a plan.

iain = biggest MikeT wannabe on here

whining or not, an opinion is an opinion...and the whining card has been played so much that any opinion is declared whining. These HBD forums have become useless.

sorry, maybe this is old news.
