Sim Deadline Thursday 5/8 9:00pm EST

[Bon Bon]

Is the SIM completed yet?

[henks]

Not a huge problem, but big enough that I'm delaying the sim. I tried to fix the settings, but apparantly, they are worse than ever. I began simming and we had a 76-66 game. One middle reliever allowd 50 earned runs. I can't finish this sim and post as is. I need to work on these settings and do some tests. I'd rather they be the way they were than like this.

Negatron.

[Bon Bon]

That makes sense.

[ljshorty89]

Crazy-if the sim is delayed, does that mean I still have a chance to export changes?

[CrazyEights]

Crazy-if the sim is delayed, does that mean I still have a chance to export changes?

yeah, i'll try to sim tomorrow night

[ljshorty89]

Ok. Thanks man. I exported a little while ago. Good luck getting everything fixed.

The gypsies struck again.

[ljshorty89]

haha. damn gypsies

[HollywoodLeo]

That basketball score game is reversible, right?

As in, you can go back and re-sim it?

[ljshorty89]

I certainly hope so. It's a bit of an outlier...

[Dry1313]

I'd hope so...

Unless my team scored the 76 runs. I don't care about pitching, I want the guy who hit 5 HRs in one game

[HollywoodLeo]

I wouldn't care if it was my team that won a game 98-1

I like a semblance of realism in the game.

That basketball score game is reversible, right?

The game is reversable, because I'm using a backup that was saved before the sim.

[CrazyEights]

This is the boxscore of the basketball game. Check out Maholm's pitching line. lol

You know, it really kills your momentum when you come off an inning where you score 17 runs to take a commanding lead, and instead of coming out and shutting down the competition your pitcher goes and lets the opposition get right back into the game by scoring a run in the bottom of the inning. I'm impressed that Houston was able to shake that, stay focused, and maintain their lead. Well done.
