It sucks to have to recruit nine open slots in 3.0. Let me tell you how bad it sucks!

But I have signed two guys, seven more to go. Yet I only have 114 AP's remaining. Yes I remember in the beta I heard that you lose a portion of the points when a player signs and he has those AP on him....I get that.

But what I will never get, is the terrible double punishment that this brings at D1. Recruiting nine in D1, I will have battles. Some I may have max points on! And you only get AP for six players no matter how many you need to recruit. SO WIS IS TELLING ME, I must recruit crap players to fill slots, and do not battle anyone, because if you have big points on the guy we are going to take those points away from you once he signs!

Why punish me before I have recruited down to the six slots you are paying me AP to recruit for. Those extra three slots I am the one trying to fill with no points and trying to get creative to do that. Oh yeah, and did I mention I have only found two players with less then four years to play! That means EVEN IF I DO NOT WANT A SUPERCLASS, I will be stuck with recruiting one.

Starting to feel some burn here.

You should have 140 left. I suspect you have some AP on players that you don't see for one reason or another. Try going to:
RECRUITING / HOME and click on current attention, and see what shows up there.

No the top of my recruiting page says 114/114.....that is total and in use.

They dumped the beta forums, but seble did explain the process. I really hope one or both of the admin are watching so they can explain!

it sucked really hard to recruit 9 in HD2 as well....so that kind of unusual mass recruiting situation isn't a unique problem to HD3.

Wooden was my first live 3.0 World. On Penn State I had four openings, and did not have enough players in the pool (Scouted). I had almost full 7K in recruiting cash, but nobody to spend it on.. had to take three walk on to fill roster. I screwed the recruiting up by running out of scouting cash, just did not plan. And that is how I got nine open slots!
