So we are down to 3 points of information about what the update was supposed to do.

1 The little update note in the Forums. To me this indicates a minor tweek that would have little game impact.

2 The chat just after the update. Again this seems to indicate a minor adjustment. Maybe a little deeper than before, and going a little deeper.

3 Ticket Responses. Very confused.

Where are any of you getting that this was suppsed to have a huge drop in total HRs across all worlds?



Again 'end of steroid ere' = big drop. How do you read that to be a small change?

I don't know if the change is working as intended, of course, because there is no earthly way that any remotely intelligent conclusions can be formed from fractions of seasons or handfuls of players.

However, it may not be working as I imagined!!!!!!!! Aargh!!!!!! Aargh!!!!!!!! Aargh!!!!! Wail and woe, wringing of hands!!!!! Aargh!!!!!!! The sky is falling!!!!!!!

There, I just saved a lot of people a lot of trouble by summing up 28 pages of thread. Happy New Year, everyone.

Honestly unless I get some sort of credit or financial compensation I most likely will not be back because the lineup I worked so hard to build will not be successfull in this new system

You can't play C/DH at 1B, 1B in LF or LF in RF any more. The negative plays/errors are team killers. So a lot of these power guys who aren't hitting as many homers are just as useless because there's nowhere in the field for them.

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.
