First off, let me start by saying that I'm not a typical online player. I'll play if I 'have to play' to get a mission completed.
I also think half the fun of this game is obtaining cards of different players.
I completed the LS Collection this year (first year I even tried); however I feel that I 'cheated'.
What I mean is that I broke down and bought two 150k bundles when they were on sale. Bow I also had decent pack luck, to a point, when I ended up pulling Trout from a free April POTM pack and Scherzer from another free pack.
I sold them and combined those funds into investments for the 3rd stage of Team Affinity.
With those profits, along with the wonderful market crash, I was able to buy my way to Mantle. (Athough I did buy back Trout for 280k BEFORE he dropped down.
Anyway, now that I have that aspect completed, I don't know where to go from here.
The Conquest maps I need to complete will get me more cards; but unless I luck out, they'll mainly be fillers.
Any progress I need for the first 3 inning Programs (only got to 300+ on 4 and 5) wobt even get me to 300 Stars.
I have ALL the Player Programs, except for Griffey Sr, completed.
I can play nothing but Showdown, to try to get caught up in TAs (only have Boston, Atlanta, amd Minn to Stage 2, every other team is at Stage 1 and not even to the Gold Prospect)
But the reason for this post is: Am I crazy for wanting to start a new acct and split time between the two; just so I an try to get Mantle, or close to him, done by JUST playing the game?
Only difference, than what I would be doing on my current acct, is that I would have to replay all those HORRIBLE Player Program Moments again (Jackie!)
Thoughts or suggestions?
