    u could with that attitude.

    I mean, it sounds like you have a worse attitude right now...

    Have you ever been frustrated at a company when you bought something and then you noticed they did something wrong with your order/item you bought/service and then they say "Im sorry there is nothing we can do for you"...? Would you have liked it if at that moment that happened to you I said to you, " Sounds like you have a bad attitude right now"... ???

    Yes, but this isn't the case in this situation. No one ever said it goes in any order if the top price is a tie. Or at least I have never heard SDS say that. Perhaps it is random when the top bid is a tie?

    The rules are pretty clear in the Terms Of Service, subsection 14(a): “In the event that two players enter an identical bid on the Marketplace, the winning bid shall be given to the player who has tagged the least amount of SDS staffers in the community forums.”

    RE: Showdown made me uninstall the game (feedback)

    @midnightdt_mlbts said in Showdown made me uninstall the game (feedback):

    Bro it's feedback to help improve the game. I freely admitted that I'm not good and guess what I'm not the only person who's not good at the game there's probably a whole lot of us. Your comment is not constructive or helpful at all.

    Some people can be pretty cold here, don’t sweat it. It’s like tough love, only without the love, ha. I struggled heavily with Showdowns at first last year. Half of the problem was that I would get too amped up over the “all or nothing” aspect, and that made me impatient.

    • Slow down the game, take some pitches, and try to wait for something elevated in the zone. If you have a runner on 1st, sit lower in the zone so that you don’t hit into a DP.
    • Know your bosses and whether you need to build a team of primarily lefties, righties or a mix of both.
    • If you can, get some speed for your bench. When you have a few outs left and your catcher gets a hit, you need someone who can swipe a bag.
    • Very importantly, pick the right perks, and swap them based on the challenge. This can make a huge difference. Perks that give you a boost when losing are nice, but usually only help against bosses, but perks that give you an exit velo / contact boost in 2-strike counts (for example) can help on every single hitting challenge. Especially if you stack two or more of the same thing.

    You’ll get there.

    RE: What player would the live series collection have to be to get you to drop $1000 day one?

    At first I used to think it was crazy that people would spend hundreds if not thousands on one year of the game... but it all depends what you get out of it. If you play 1,000 hours a year of MLBTS and truly enjoy it, then spending $1,000 is actually cheap, safe entertainment. Few fun things in life cost $1 an hour.

    And for some people, they can say “I earn X dollars per hour at my job, and grinding would take me 100 hours to get what I want... isn’t it just cheaper in a time/money perspective for me to buy stubs and skip the grind?” Which yeah, it very well might be.

    As you said, life can be short and nobody is promised anything. Just do what brings you enjoyment while you’re here. I like the feeling of grinding out a reward, but everyone should find what works for them and not worry so much about what other people do or don’t do.

    RE: To sports fans against wearing masks

    @Ewogimia365 said in To sports fans against wearing masks:

    Dyk vaccines companys face no liability? They operate with immunity.

    I just wanted to point out that I loved the irony of this line. It’s like a joke you would read on the back of a cereal box.
    “Q: Do you know why vaccination companies face no corporate liability?
    A: It’s because they operate with immunity!” (B’dum-tiss!)

    Are flat earthers allowed to be Rangers fans, with Globe Life Field and all?

    RE: Coors Field - How far is it...

    I still can’t get over the fact that they lost 21 of the 22 games you attended.

    If I covered your expenses, would you go to every Yankees game from here on out?

    RE: What do you all do for work in the real world

    I do contractual work for a number of metal bands and labels (not so much hard rock, but more thrash, prog, death and black metal).

    I did this one on Zone, using power swing, and sat on anything up and inside.

    RE: Anyone else heard this? Too funny

    Whenever I bring Gossage into a game, "Here comes the Goose, bottom of the 9th!", even though it's usually the 2nd or 3rd inning of a Conquest or Mini Seasons game.

    RE: Packs Day 1

    Nothing. I'll play the heck out of the market instead. Last year within a month of launch I was able to afford Trout, but it did take a lot of hustling.

    RE: Possible Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Suggestions?

    Definitely see a specialist. And in the meantime, look up ergonomic solutions for your time on the computer. I fought this a while ago from typing day and night (both for work and for my hobbies) and when it was cold, I would come inside, warm up, but my hand stayed ice cold for an extra 20 minutes, and I had those elbow pains too. I had to change my setup to reduce the strain.

    RE: What is/was the longer grind? Immortals or Superfractor?

    @chuckclc_psn said in What is/was the longer grind? Immortals or Superfractor?:

    This was easily the worst part of Immortals. The collectibles.

    Absolutely. Especially since it was full of jerseys and caps, none of which you were allowed to actually equip on your team. That sucked.

    RE: Assumptions on what they keep or change for '22

    As an offline player I would like to see them bring back Conquest Extreme. Not as part of any Inning or Program, just as an option, perhaps with either exclusive rewards, or as an offline way to earn a few of the premier RS/Events award cards.

    RE: Rights to players

    I think it’s actually the opposite. As long as a player is part of the MLBPA and it seems for a small amount of years after they retire, anyone who has a licensing deal with the MLBPA can use the name and likeness of those players. After that time, it seems like you need the direct consent of the player themselves. So there are some greats who have never been in the game, probably because they keep saying no (like Sandy Koufax or Randy Johnson). Plus SDS can probably only spend to get the rights to so many players each year, so it rotates. Players like Mauer were in before (and were great, the 99 Mauer was one of my favorite catchers) so hopefully they bring some of them back again before too long.

    RE: Still think

    @painpa_psn said in Still think:

    wasnt xbh that didnt happen till the next year.it was 2 doubles( not sure but think it was 3 hits 2 doubles)might have had to score a run or 2 or rbi as well. I still have nightmares on that. took me till 26th inning of 3rd attempt to do it, hated it so much never used the card.

    You’re right. Oh, and it all just came flooding back to me…how you would have to try and artificially extend games in order to get your guy another AB. For me, it meant intentionally walking the CPU with the bases loaded (two outs) until the score was tied and then trying to get out of the jam to go another inning. Wow, that sucked.

    RE: Still think

    @savefarris_psn said in Still think:

    I did it and I stink.

    You can too.

    This isn’t impossible, unlike the Daniel Nava mission in 18. Or the Damon mission in 17.

    I am pretty sure the 4-hit Nava mission destroyed a few marriages. “When are you coming to bed? Your children haven’t seen you in days!”

    The other evil one was “two extra base hits with J.P. Crawford”. And some of those old missions weren’t player locked Moments, you had to play out the whole game. [shudders]

    Finally some good BIAH packs

    I keep playing Conquest, exchanging for Affinity, etc., and normally wait until I have like 100 packs built up before opening them. Which are usually predictable. Today I had 27 Balling Is A Habit packs, which are normally disappointing, but within a span of ten packs I pulled 99 Kerry Wood (love those gold lights), 95 Guidry and LS Kershaw, Buehler and Nick Anderson.

    Nice, I’m grateful… but where was that luck esrlier in the year? 😀
