Just opened a pack with 4 FA and now they're gone. I want my 60 stubs!

I think it's contagious somehow. I quit trying and decided to just mow the lawn since it's a nice day here. I jump on the old zero turn and whaddaya know, an unhandled server exception occurred.

Apparently, there's an immense amount of talent just sitting behind a desk within these forums. Who knew?

My favorite part is how there are 30 teams with 40 man rosters, so in the neighborhood of 1200 players. There were 340 FA on day 1. I've not bought packs, but opened any free ones and I can pull 3 FA out of basically any pack and sometimes get the unanimous 4 FA in a pack. Those are some great odds.

First at bat - 1st inning. Overlay said I was 0 for 5 with a K. Knew it was going to be a special set of moments. SDS does not disappoint.

The 2 doubles with 1 SB moment - I was Bronze 67 when it started. I was Bronze 75 before Carlos Martinez could find the strike zone. (Stage 2 Moment)
In around 30 attempts at above moment, Cardinal outfielders dove and caught around a dozen gap shots. Took about 35 attempts as I somehow hit more HR than doubles.

Appreciate the free stuff. Not a fan in the least of moments where the game plays differently than other modes that drastically for long periods, then all of a sudden, you are able to complete it almost effortlessly.

Was better last year when it started off with 2 cards for 7500, then went to 2 cards for 5000. Now it's 1 card for 7500 so I avoid them altogether.

Disappointment is a habit.

Taking each hexagon in Conquest takes 15 to 20 seconds. Powered off and will try again later. Shark Map day is always a big day. Hoped a few extra servers would have been spun up to accommodate the crowd. If it's not due to more people playing, we could be in for a long night.

I don't get mad at Showdown any more. But, that's mainly because I simply don't play them - unless, as stated above, they are mandatory for a program.

Conquest plays different than Showdown, which plays different than Mini Seasons, which plays different than Moments, which plays different than Events, which plays different than <insert game mode here>, even though all of them could be on the same Vet, AS or HOF level. I whole-heartedly loathe Moments, and Showdowns are like a pack of Moments and, well, no thanks. To each their own, though.

I still go back and watch this every so often. Jon Miller summed it up perfectly.

Hey wait, I lost again. Oh wait.

I still lost...

I don't think this is accurate, fellas.

I don't buy packs but have accumulated a whopping 3 Chase packs to date - All Golds
All the free 25K Silverliner packs given in Conquest - 5 in total - All Golds (How do you justify 25K and only guarantee a Gold is beyond me)
I have, however, pulled 8 Jose Altuve specials from the Standards and Disappointment is a Habit packs.

Bask in my awesomeness.....and in my disappointment.

They recently issued a new cert that is valid until next year. I expect many more people will talk about not being able to get to the site soon enough.

Not sure how this got overlooked. Sign-ins are not encrypted. Transactions (if any) are not encrypted. Seems like this would stick out like a sore thumb if they are even visiting the site.

My 8 Jose Altuve pulls have entered the chat. It's free stubs (I don't buy packs) but would be nice to get something decent. I've seen 3 Chase packs this year - all Gold at the end. The 25K headliner packs (how do you guarantee a Gold only for 25k?) have all produced Golds. Hence, I don't buy packs.

Only packs I bought. Trea, Cole and PS Foxx (thought this one was FotF Murphy after seeing blue lights and A's logo). A loss in total, but not as horrible a loss as it could have been.
